  1. Just had a look at his Wiki profile. Having dealt with abandonment issues from his father as well as sexual grooming/abuse from his childhood coach, one cannot imagine how this must affect someone. I sincerely hope that friends and family help him through these times.
  2. Looking at the stage profiles, there could be a good chance that GC is already panned out by end of stage 4?
  3. My 1991 Vacari purchased from AvH cycles. Reynolds 501 tubing and 105 8 speed group set.
  4. Neoprene toe covers and a good pair of Mohair socks.
  5. This is what google has to say: WHAT IS THE WARRANTY POLICY FOR SCOTT BIKES? There is a warranty for frames of 5 years. However, the warranty is only valid, if a proof of maintenance from an authorized SCOTT dealer in every of the first three years after the purchase can be brought forward. The authorized SCOTT dealer is admonished to confirm the maintenance work by stamp and signature. In case no or an incomplete proof of annual maintenance can be brought forward the warranty for the frame is reduced from 5 to 3 years. Costs for maintenance and service have to be borne by the owner of the SCOTT bike. For the Gambler, Voltage FR and BMX bikes the warranty period is limited to 2 years. Based on the above and the highlighted portion, they technically should honour the warranty?
  6. Gibbo also caught up in it.
  7. Thanks. And to think that Nick snr is such a nice guy
  8. What a scumbag. Out of curiosity, is he any relation to Nick Bester (Comrades winner/Tri athlete)?
  9. Shimano XT 12 Speed Drivetrain. | Complete Groupsets | Bike Hub Problem solved. Bargain them down to 8K (asking 9K) 23k-15k (sale) = 8K Thank me latter
  10. Just a heads up to sellers, the TROLLS are back. Have a frame up for sale and last night get two interested parties who had just registered on the hub with exactly the same message. Can't even spell properly. Even used a screen shot of my sale item as their user pic.
  11. If you are JHB based, Northcliff Cycles would be your best bet
  12. Easy solution. Do away with the saddlebag. Thats why jerseys have pockets. Rule # 31: // Spare tubes, multi-tools and repair kits should be stored in jersey pockets.If absolutely necessary, in a converted bidon in a cage on bike.
  13. Male 54 1.79m and shrinking 84 KG 54 Road Bike X 2 L MTB Bike
  14. I tore all the tendons in my Ankle beginning December last year. Ankle fully healed but still battling the motivation bit 4 months later, so don't beat down on yourself.
  15. Tomorrow Land pumping in the earphones and you're good to go
  16. No idea. The humor in me would say drainage screws in the event water gets into the frame? Not possibly for cable guides?
  17. Proven to never failed and trusted by many for decades. 🤣🤣 On a serious note. Have a spare Garmin dual that would look to part with for R750
  18. They are bloody useless. Dropped my HR monitor off with them on 15 Nov 2023 for assessment/repairs as was faulty. Was told I would receive a SMS with the diagnoses and the applicable resolution. Crickets. Get a courier delivery early Feb 2024 with a new HR belt and sensor and invoice for R1500 (WTF) Needless to say, no monies have been paid and now have a spare after having bought a new one in December last year.

    Won't be using them any time soon. Although their prices are very competitive, shipping costs are just OTT: Conti X King MTB tyre:
  20. Easier if you send him a direct message. Click on his/her user name and select message. Also that way you are not posting your contact details for the whole world to see.
  21. Just watch out for the odd Baboon.
  22. We used to have a holiday house in Plett (Keurbooms). Would often do a ride out to Cold Stream and back. As mentioned all depends on what distance and where in Plett OP is residing.
  23. If I recall, road past airport is gravel as well as the R340.
  24. Thanks. Thats why we call on the Hub knowledge. We will have a back up vehicle. Other option (incl's N1) is Britstown to Beaufort West. Then onto Matjiesfontein and CT?
  25. Road. Would look to stay in BB's / Guest Houses each night with a back up vehicle. We did similar in 2021 (JHB to DBN) for Amashova
