  1. True. A pair of tubeless tyres are R2500
  2. £35 for CTCT, Ride London is £100 stop moaning!
  3. If we handed out 1 star ratings for everybody who asks "is it still available" and then disappears.....
  4. In my experience everything Torque Craft is rubbish
  5. It seems to be a scam every time I get message from a WhatsApp business account
  6. That's the join between the chainring and crank, it is not part of the issue. It is not supposed to touch otherwise it would creak.
  7. It doesn't matter with an airtag, you can find it with a chime
  8. I borrowed a hotel commuter bicycle whilst on holiday and my android phone alerted me that I was being tracked/stalked! It had a option to play a chime so I could easily find the Apple air tag was hidden under the seat. Not great if I had stolen the bike
  9. I have been down the cycle path many times and it has been dead quiet, although I haven't been in the last 6 months. Why did you cycle through there? Is it safer than the N1 or did you just go to look.... or were you armed and ready for action!
  10. Edit: No longer looking for spokes, Freewheel Cycology came to the rescue
  11. Thanks for letting us know. I thought we might be safe on that stretch because they would be stepping out onto the main road.
  12. Assos customer service in Switzerland has been shocking so far (for me). Very disappointed
  13. The Merida has a nice paint job but is something close to 9kg
  14. I couldn’t get hold of Orange Seal in time so fitted new tyres with Enduro Seal from sportsman’s warehouse. Complete sh*t! Had a tiny tiny hole and it wouldn’t seal it. I don’t know how others have recommended it, completely useless.
  15. Are you sure the hanger is straight?
  16. I would guess this bike wasn’t even 10k well over 10 years ago when it was new. That Ultegra group set was released 18 years ago in 2005
  17. I can’t believe a bike shop built up that bike and didn’t see any of those cracks. Have you shown them the frame and BB to ask for their comments. Maybe you should ask for an eye test certificate from their mechanics?
  18. Sorry but what you are trying to do is not great. Why do you want to cross chain so badly, it would wear down your drivetrain, the efficiency is terrible and I would guess that your chain will scrape the front mech. Just shift into the big ring, especially since you have di2, it is so quick and slick. Also, riding in the small front/ small rear will most probably result in the chain running completely loose. I’m sorry, but what you’re trying to do makes no sense
  19. I’m confused, I thought you were doing a ride in Montague and then wanted to get from there to Cape Town. If you’re already in Cape Town then it a fantastic ride to Cape Point, even the wind has died down. No need for public transport.
