  1. How come the FB page is a closed group? Sent a request to join. Is there any way to do EFT donations? Has there been another bike road block since the Carte Blanche thingie? Dangle and Co well done nd keep it up chaps.
  2. Thanks agent. I just hope they see the thread. I was going to upgrade from my RC8000 to a Specialized, after chatting to Brandon today, a Scott it will be.
  3. Last night on a thread about Raleighs I made a comment without thought and without the full knowledge of the situation between Probike and Raleigh with regards to warranty issues. I spoke to Brandon Els on the phone today and now fully understand the situation. Brandon and the guys at Probike are doing their best to help on all warranty issues. I apologise for any inconvienece caused to Probike. Regards Steven
  4. If you can afford 20k for a bike you can't afford not to insure it.
  5. My bike is insured for 30K with Alex Forbes.Everything is covered from wheels to my computer. Pay a R108pm.
  6. Hope you get it all back bud
  7. Yeah agree with Tank man. Shouldnt be any issue.
  8. Oh and welcome to cycling and the Hub.
  9. You said road mostly, so go for a road bike. Raleigh might not be one of the botique brands out there. But as a starter bike you can't go wrong. You'll get good bang for your buck component wise etc. And there are loads around 2nd hand right now. Saddles hard to advise on, your touche might not like a saddle someone else's does. Best to try before you buy. my 2c
  10. Why not take them to a place who do stickers etc and get them to make and fit them for you?
  11. Hope he doesn't slip through the crack.
  12. Im not the worlds best cyclist by a long shot. But your ratio sounds good to me. I ride 53-39 11-25 in races and train on 53-39 11-23. The only thing I would advise is changing to a 11-25 for that extra bit of speed.That way you dont lose your climbing ratios. My 2c
  13. I reckon if you're not a pro, dont wear pro kit. Why advertise for people that don't pay you? I like plain kit.

  15. I had the black an red team frame and never had one issue. Only reason I sold it was because I was offered a killer deal on a RC8000C. there is nothing wrong with a raleigh carbon frame except for the few issues they had.
  16. That could be abit strange. I saw one at the 70.3 a couple of years ago.
  17. Hey Skidmark Do the Makro/Lorriane primary school race the 10th Sept,90km Will be good introduction to racing and it takes you over pretty the same route.
  18. Be careful A mate of mine spent R750 on gumtree for a penis enlarger. Bastards sent him a magnifying glass! You have been warned.
  19. And that is why I'm buyingConcepts from Leonard. I'm waitingfor my bucks to clear and they will be on their way to me. Leonard is all about service. Kept me informed every step on the way with my set. Can't wait to ride them.
  20. what ever happened about this?
  21. Will still buy small things from lbs,tubes tyres etc. But all big ticket items will go Chris' way. Very impressed.
  22. Just did my first transaction with Chris Willemse. Cape Town to EL in 1 day If I order from my LBS I wait 2 weeks minimum. I forsee myself doing loads of business with them. Well done guys keep it up.
