Dude Crush

So what was in the goodie bag? I had a late entry and didnt get one... Sounds like I missed out!

I've got the Polar CS200 with speed and cadence - beautiful computer. Maybe look at that. Its R1600 without cadence or around R2k with cadence but definitely worth it. I just picked up a second hand speed and cadence sensor here so I can easily switch between my mtb and road bike. The computer can be set up for two bikes...

Thanks guys... Are there no issues with using the SRAM cassette and Shimano groupset? Seems like people seem to like SRAM products a bit more here... Is the 1070 similar in the range to Ultegra?

Hi Guys I've recently jumped on a road bike for the first time but I find that the 11-23 cassette is a bit much for me on the hills. There seems to be a shortage of Ultegra casettes at the moment. I can get the Ultegra 11-25 or SRAM 1070 12-27 now, but would have to wait 3 weeks for the Ultegra 12-27. The rest of the groupset is Ultegra... What should I do?

Wishing you a speedy and full recovery, Damian. Fingers crossed that all goes well... looking forward to seeing you back in action again soon!

Condolences to you and the family! It really is a tragic story... makes you remember that this can be a really dangerous sport. And even when you're careful, things can still go wrong! Be safe guys...

Lol... Convenient indeed! Look out for the new earrings/handbags/shoes... its a dead giveaway! Anyway, hope you plan on replacing the bike... always sad to lose a hubber under such circumstances! Good luck with the guys at the stasie!

8ft wall you say? Must've been a really tall guy... depending on your frame size, maybe we should look out for the awkward dude with long legs and a small bike! Bt seriously, sorry to hear that dude... i guess the only thing left to do is make light of it. I agree, sometimes it just seems like this sh*T is getting out of hand!
