  1. I've been using my running vest for cycling, Works just as well as the standard hydration packs. Up to 3L bladder in the back plus 2x 500ml soft flask bottles in the front. Has pockets for keys, cellphone etc. In my opinion, it has a better snug fit than a cycling hydration pack. Cheaper options are available at Decathlon https://www.decathlon.co.za/?prod_en[query]=running vest
  2. Expedition Africa adventure race (run, bike, kayak) at Legends MX Large frame
  3. Hi all, I am in need of some spares to buy or trade. I received an entry to an event in Feb, and the only MTB I have is one of those you buy from a mass retailer (see picture). I have upgraded the following already (seat, seatpost, stem, handlebars, pedals) I would like to change gripshift to normal shifters, a rear shock and crankset (current crankarms are cheap and bent). If anyone has any of these lying around, please PM me.
  4. Looking for this part as I have misplaced mine. Not sure what it's called. It is a loose part, not permanently attached to the trainer.
  5. I am in need of a MTB for this weekend and I'm trying to find a place that does rentals. I won't be at a specific trail e.g. Rosemary Hill or so on to rent from them. Are there any shops or services in Pretoria that provides rental bikes?
  6. @dave303e Thank you. Garmin Basecamp worked
  7. Thank you. I will try some of those you mentioned
  8. Hi all, This is something that I have been struggling with for a few days now. We have a race coming up and it's self-navigating. The map was sent to us and it opens up in Google Maps. So far none of us have been able to properly convert it to .gpx so that one can upload it to Garmin Connect and save it as a course. The map is made up of 6 stages, and I get the feeling that you have to save each stage as a course, instead of having all the stages as 1 course. Any ideas on how to get this done? Thanks Kevin
  9. Hi all, I need some information for a training ride this coming Saturday. Unfortunately I'm riding solo, so I need to know if one of these will be safe enough to ride, considering traffic and general safety? All the routes lead from Wonderboom South, Pta. R101 North (Old Jhb road) R513 West (Old Brits road) R515 West (van der Hoff road) R55 South towards Sandton R573 North (Moloto road) R513 East towards Cullinan I plan on riding around 75km, and doing that through the suburbs instead of more open road, and having to stop at every 2nd street will take forever. I would appreciate any info on these routes or other routes as a suggestion.
  10. Not mine, unfortunately. But an insane beauty created by Chainline Bikes.
  11. Hi all, I am looking for a spare tyre. I have a Maxxis High Roller ST that needs replacing, and would like to replace with the same one. Have posted a wanted ad, no luck yet. Haven't found any stock at LBS, and one shop even said that it's not on the list of available stock to order. Please help!
  12. I can't see why not? BRB isn't that far. As I said, I would suggest that. I would prefer driving there and riding the trails and not worry about traffic rather than stopping at each crossing because you might be run over ( IMO )
  13. I would suggest driving to Big Red Barn, which is about 17km's (15min drive) from Wierdapark, and ride the trails there. Don't have to worry about traffic, and they are open from 6am.
  14. I bought a pair of Giant gloves from LBS, wasn't too happy. Brother bought these for me in the States. Very nice indeed.
  15. @muzzarati Is the Rock Shox still available?
  16. Santa Cruz V10 Trek Session 9.9 My swak hart!
  17. These will be a nice replacement for my Bondi Blu's!
  18. Hi hubbers, I have a FUNN handlebar 650mm, free to anyone ( without grips, brakes etc ). Recently replaced it with a new one. I weighed my bike last night, came to 17.5kg! Will be offering more parts soon as I will be shedding some weight from the bike.
