  1. I have a CT cycle tour entry available for anyone that is looking. I had a break in and my bike was stolen. Send me a pm if you interested or anyone that is looking for an entry. It's for the full 109km race. Or is there a forum i can advertise it on. Thanks
  2. Guys, I'm decided if I should ride my MTB with slicks or normal tyres. Normal ones looks better, but ride harder. Which do you prefer specifically for the CTCT
  3. I also did not get my mail for my seeding. my PPA membership has expired and i tried to contact them via email. waiting on response
  4. OK, great then, thanks for your input. I currently have a 32t in front and have a 34t laying around. Will swop them and see how the 34t performs. You say 34 for flat surface. Doing the Argus with it, so I guess a 34 will do then.
  5. I'm looking fro a front derailer clamp for my mtb. currently running 1x11 setup 11-40 with a 32t chainring. i have the 2nd shifter and front derailer. bike is a older 27.5b titan racing, but it does not have the built on clamp or one that comes with the FD. so looking at doing a 2x11 setup, but need a specific clamp

  7. So what will happen if you use the international entry. will they pick it up and ban you or does it not matter. will you have to collect your number at the international pickup point? anything to stress about 😜
  8. yeah, i missed it too. anyone have anything available or cannot race on race day. send me a pm please.
  9. thanks for the offer, will pm you
  10. Hi Guys Any willing to help me replace my old 8 speed groupset with 10 speed groupset. I can offer you a tray of beer or some cash if you prefer. Or if you wanna do it for free i will appreciate it. I have the crankset with BB, shifters with cables, FD, RD, cassette and chain. DM me if anyone is interested in helping. I am in CPT, Southern Suburbs. I can come to you if you prefer
  11. Anyone can tell me how to fit the race number. It has a plastic with 2 holes, 2 cable ties and 4 clips. And the other piece of paper. Sorry about the stupid questions, it's my 1st Argus ????
  12. Guys just wanted to update you on my issue which was resolved by John and Reece from Ergofit at the Sport Science Institute. They sorted out my back/should/neck issue with a proper bikefit and some fine tuning which helped me instantly. I got some good advice on my body positioning and posture to prevent stiffness and muscle tension. Very professional and will go the extra mile in sorting out any issue you might be experiencing. Thank you once again John for your professionalism and dedication.
  13. Hi Guys Just wanted your input on what my issue could be wrt my upper back pain/shoulder blades and sore stiff neck and slightly lame in arms. I heard ridden a 5 hour ride on Saturday up to Chappies and back. I did my bike fit in the week. my pedal reach is perfect now, but i still have the upper back issue. My height is 1.65m and see my bike measurements below. Would appreciate your feedback.
  14. So i bought it yesteday and he serviced it before selling it to me. Daughter very excited and happy about the bike. Now i just need some elbow and knee pads with a helmet. I saw this on takealot for a good deal. What' your opinion of this. https://betterbuys.co.za/product/protective-gear-kit-adjustable-sports-guard-kit-knee-elbow-wrist-guards-with-helmet-for-kids-purple-pink/ Or is there anything better out there perhaps
  15. Thanks for the advice gents. I'm having a look at it later and see how she fits and ride it.
  16. what's your opinion on this bike and what to check for any issues https://bikehub.co.za/classifieds/item/kids-bikes/499807/avalanche-cosmic-24-girls
  17. great, thanks for the advise guys, apprciated
  18. Hi all Just wanted some input on buying a bike for my daughter. I think she will enjoy it and riding with me. So i am looking for a decent entry level bike for her. She is 10 and about 1.2m Is there any difference in the entry level bikes and what brand is preferred and which shops in CPT. Budget is about 1k to 2.5k Dunno much about kiddies bikes and i don't think it's not worth buying a 2nd hand kiddies bike also.
  19. Hi Guys My road bike handlebars are too low and the stem is limited and i cannot lift the handlebars up anymore. My current one is 100mm long What is your view on the adjustable stem. Is it safe to use and better to adjust to the correct height i prefer. https://www.olympiccycles.co.za/product/pro-stem-lt-os-adj-black-110mm/?gclid=CjwKCAjw95yJBhAgEiwAmRrutNbz2LtEOATxK1SlPWsSgv2g5ikKQwgbY1-ZbkOCmmL7XeDAyKZI3RoCsZ0QAvD_BwE
