  3. So I recently got my bike, and busy putting my kit together. Obviously didn't want to pick the first thing off the shelves, so doing research on everything I buy. So I had decided on picking up the First Ascent 8 Panel Domestique shorts: http://www.firstascent.co.za/shop/mens-8-panel-domestique-short/(R699) But when I popped in to Cycle Lab, sales guy convinced me that the Men's Pro Elite shorts http://www.firstascent.co.za/shop/mns-pro-elite-short/ (R1,100)were better because they use Gel padding as opposed to the standard padding. My question therefore is, despite the price tag and the "gel" will it make that much of a difference for a beginner? Any other brands I should consider?
  4. Hello Hubbers, I've been looking through the forums and can't seem to find a definitive answer to the problems I face. Sooo... Firstly Shoes... I have a budget of 2k for my shoes. I would really like something that has the boa system because i think its frikken awesome but please let me know if its any good. So basically what is a good shoe in the 2k range? Should I get something like a first ascent torque 2 or an flr f55 or something shimano... or should I save up and get the Specialized Expert? Have also seen the Fizik m5 boa, those are also cool, but again is it the best in this price range. I am leaning toward the Giro Cylinder because it has get boa system and it looks pretty awesome, but are the shoes good? So basically I'm just trying to find out whats a good brand to go with for quality and value for the money that I end up spending. Also, where are the good shops in Johannesburg that I can shop at for good deals? Secondly pedals, I want to ride trail as well as start doing some good distance on the road... I want to go clipless and I have found pedals for sale on the hub that I will get... I just want to know which is better between the Shimano m520 and the m530... Is the extra cage on the 530 better? Thank you, any advice will be greatly appreciated. Apologies for the essay
  5. I am looking to try these out : Does anyone have an experience with them? I know they a rather budget, but if enjoy them i could always move onto some pricier 5-10's in the future. While we are at it, are trail pedals (XT or even PDM 540's) worth it? The idea is to get trail pedals + trail shoes and to be able to clip out when things get interesting.
