  1. well if you running tubeless then sure but Wayne didnt say he wants tubeless i just dont see the advantage of buying the much more expensive 5000 non tubeless when you can get great deals on 4000s
  2. so useful info about actual widths puncture resistance rolling resistance etc https://www.bicyclerollingresistance.com/road-bike-reviews/continental-grand-prix-5000-2018 for my 10c id rather save le dosh and buy GP4000s2 but anyways i hope it helps
  3. PM me i might have a few......
  4. remove the seatpin and use penetrating oil on the seatpost - leave the saddle on for some leverage get the headset out and the BB and check the inside for rust etc and service the headset and BB before you rebuild rub the surface of the fork with a ball of tin foil which helps to retore the shine a bit if you not comfortable with the work the frame is worth paying a good LBS to do it for you faggins are usually custom ordered so i would think you could put anything on and it would be "correct" and you could also go "retro modern" and put a modern group on and just keep the classic frame elements and throw some carbon wheels on 699 - good deal
  5. they have a website and a FB page why dont you ask them http://www.fagginbikes.com/contact-us/ https://www.facebook.com/fagginbikes45/
  6. 1982 peugeot classique made is old SA tange 2 tubing nice colour very nice wheels and hubs not the greatest brakes but they are how it came get some of that rubber and vinyl care spray stuff for the rubber brake hoods and give it a nice clean and a little careful polish maybe some new tires in 25 or 28 c dont do anything else to it just service it and ride it luv that bar tape
  7. post a picture of the headbadge and we can tell which year if it says prestige and its a classique model means its local made tange 2 means probably 80s but as DJR says some pics will help you can ride eroica on it
  8. pretty sure
  9. yes 70s SR brake lever clamps
  10. not entirely relevent because im in the UK at mo but i just bought a pair of GP500 clinchers for R1400 on special - looking forward to trying them out as replacements for my 4000 s2 s when i get back in jan
  11. possibly because for 100 years they worked and now we have to over think everything
  12. if you ever toured a slaughter facility you wouldnt make that statement - but as you obviously buy your meat in plastic so you believe whatever makes you feel better about it
  13. industrialised food (meat products production) is far more cruel and F**ked up than hunting . take a battery/feedlot raised and industrial slaughtered animal's stress and fear levels compared to an animal in the wild shot unawares by a hunter. so if you are anti-hunting but eat animal products you are a hypocrite who lets others do your killing for you so your opinion really holds zero weight in this argument. if you are vegan ...sweet (but still not the only choice) #freedomtodecide
  14. then how is this post of yours relevant to " Snakes" then ??
  15. its easy if there is a snake ...dont get off your bike and go over and F*ck with the snake ...continue with your ride
  16. would convert into an awesome mixte tourer
  17. wayne bro seriously that only looks good if your name is G.I Joe
  18. yeah ok .... some just throw rocks but single cyclists have been attacked by groups and pulled off bikes and knives have been used so maybe "getting off your bike to beat them " isnt such a hot plan..... Hermanus Safe cycling run a Safe Cycling whatsapp group 076 043 3377 (Cycle Buddies) for anyone who visits and wants info or a group Ride Safe guys and gals
  19. be careful out there people - Hawston has now moved from being a den of poachers to attacking cyclists along the R43 in the middle of the day 6 attacks since december 2 in last week
  20. why is everyone saying Makro ....its WAL*MART (shopping with satan )
