  1. 2017 has brought some exciting new changes to Bicyclegear.co.za. We launched our Bicyclegear Originals range which saw the first ever Hemp mountain bike baggy being introduced to the South African market. Click here to view the article
  2. The Globalex brand has since its inception become synonymous with excellence in product quality and service. We have achieved this distinction through aligning ourselves with select international suppliers and products of only the highest quality. The company has been operating in South Africa since 2005.

  3. Bicyclegear.co.za were fortunate enough to ride the new Boschedal MTB trails on Heritage Day yesterday. A lot of work has gone into the trail which starts from Boschendal Estate. The parking is secure, there are showers and you can grab a coffee, cold drink and something to eat both before and after your ride. There is a ton of trail cut into the mountain and through their forests. The downhill runs will suit the enduro crowd perfectly, with berms, camelbacks and table-tops all in the mix. It was wonderful riding on virgin trail without any sign of rutting yet. Everyone who rode was basically making their own lines. The switchbacks are tight and exhilarating, I would certainly recommend seat-post droppers here. The route is well marked. On the 30km route, we gained 700metres in climbing which gets you right up to the mountain cliffs, with amazing view over the valley below. The trail is set to open in two weeks.
  4. This last weekend, www.bicyclegear.co.za were fortunate to spend some time out near Bonnievale at the Drecaso Chalets and Conference. The area has quiet district roads as well as a plethora of designated mountain bike trails throughout the valley. The chalets are an ideal place to use as a base to explore and train. We rode a 92km loop from the chalets to McGregor. Then up the Bosmanskloof Pass and back along another route. We climbed in total, 1200 metres over 92km's. When we reached the top of the Bosmanskloof Pass, we could clearly see the road wind up the Galgeberg to the antenna on top. Has anyone ridden up to the mast? I have looked on "Strava Heatmaps" and clearly see the route has been lit up. We would love to hear how the experience was and to see some photos.
  5. In this photo there are two illegal activities happening. 1. Riding on this out-of-bounds yet frequently ridden greenbelt in Constantia, Cape Town. 2. Fouling of the green belt as a wall is built. The question is how long will it take for a mountain bike tyre imprint to disappear as opposed to cement that will be present for years? The problem is far more people using the greenbelts will moan and complain at the sight of a cyclist, while not "bat an eyelid" at a builders working very untidily and in turn polluting our cities open green spaces...
  6. Last week I spent a lot of time trying to get information about riding on the Zachariashoek Trails near Franschhoek. I found very little. Over the weekend I ventured out that way and decided not to hit the Matoppie Trail, but rather venture into this lost corner... ...and lost it is, but in a good way. The riding was tough. Tracks are rutted and you can't do the loop anymore because of a major wash away after the fires and the resulting erosion. But, I spotted baboon and Klipsringer up on the top of the plateau. The track I was on disappeared further up the mountain. The views are amazing and with "no service" you feel truly out there... Checkout all the photos here...
  7. Who is more emotional in the ‪#‎OPQS‬ team car, Davide Bramati or Mark Cavendish? You be the judge! Also, Michał Kwiatkowski talks about his monster descent at Tour de France Stage 16 where he drastically cut the gap to riders in front of him. Good try Kwiato! ‪#‎TDF‬ ‪#‎CavintheCar‬
  8. What a great piece of film-making from the 1962 Tour de France. Click below for the link. http://bicyclegear.c...e-le-tour-1962/
  9. http://bicyclegear.co.za/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/Neverland.jpg This is an amazing trail in Hout Bay. This is just another piece of the puzzle that could get a mountain bike trail built all the way round Table Mountain.
