    One of the guys who tried to push me off my bike on the Paarden island to N1 bridge was wearing a jacket similar to this. They will look like they are casually walking and then jump into action when you get close. The one was wearing a dark grey/black jacket with flashes of pink/orange.

    Normal hacksaw is fine, takes about 20 seconds

    From Paarden Island, just before the little bridge which takes you onto the N1 two guys were 2 seconds late jumping over the barrier. One almost grabbed me but missed. 20 metres later on the actual bridge an unmarked white Golf with a policeman driving came past but it was 7:15 so he was already late for his shift change and he didn't stop

    Here you go. Don't be fooled by the size, this is an amazing light, they did proper research on the flash patters and brightness for maximum visibility. I have been using it since 2017 https://www.trekbikes.com/za/en_ZA/equipment/bike-accessories/bike-lights/bike-rear-lights/bontrager-flare-rt-rear-bike-light/p/23999/?colorCode=black

    Just go and buy the Trek/Bontrager Flare R rear light. Crazy flash pattern, super bright, apparently you can see it from 2 km away. Noticeably different experience when you cycle without it. I won't leave home without it.

    I sleep very well at night knowing they got the sh** beaten out of them. Of course it's assault and it is fully deserved. You wouldn't be saying the same thing if they broke into your house tonight and harmed your children. F*** them up

    SHARE THE VIDEO!!! Will be the best thing I've watched all year

    Agreed, ceramic bearings in my BB and wheels were all replaced in a few thousand km because they were grinding. Replaced with quality German bearings

    That's a big difference if you're riding with friends and you finish every 2km climb 40 seconds behind them?

    All sold out since Pagacer switched to 165!

    I was very happy to hear about the mugger who slipped and fell to his death on table mountain. I will also be happy to hear about any bike-jackers who got shot by a cyclist. I feel nothing about a criminal losing their life, that's just too bad

    Works perfectly for road

    It will be fine, no problem at all

    The R27 road surface is absolutely awful and cars pull over into the yellow lane at 120km/h to allow others to overtake. No thanks

    Do you really need a Dekra report to tell you what's going to go wrong with a Range Rover with 200,000km?

    It has been lifted off the classifieds https://bikehub.co.za/classifieds/item/dual-suspension-bikes/650961/merida-96-rc-5000-m-carbon-xt12spd-rs

    I had exactly the same thing happen to me yesterday at exactly the same spot. This guy started running towards me. Luckily I was on my MTB and had my Giro 'tackies' on so jumped off and told him to come so I could **** him up.... he turned around and I carried on
  18. Andreas_187
    Be bold and go for it, don't let the police apathy deter you. Good luck

    Enduro seal didn't work for me. There is only one sealant that can seal hole at high pressure and it's Orange. Also, it is incredibly easy to peal off after a puncture. When I tried Stan's Race I ended up striped my crank and chainrings to clean the mess, nevermind the mess on my shoes

    It probably wouldn't be worth shipping by the time you add shopping + taxes. There only worthwhile option is to add an additional bag to an existing traveller which is £65 on BA

    GX for 150k, just as bad as Spez

    I have a set of warranty rims (road) that need swapping over, who is the best person for the job in Cape Town?
  24. Andreas_187
    You mean a race entry? You can still buy one for R1250 on the cycle tour website

    I was cycling that day when the taxi flew past me and overtook on a blind bend. This guy did well to swerve out of the way and got sideswiped instead of a fatal head-on
