LOL. I'm just gonna hand the lot over to Droo and say "FIX".

 

Got a couple of Crowbars at home. Those green ones. I've broken 2 of them trying to seat a WTB Weirwolf on a set of Spank Subrosas. Learns a bit about seating tyres since then.

Not a 'new' purchase but replaced the tatty old white tape on my tarmac with some fresh new red tape thanks to Pikey - thanks mate!

 

Need to check with the 'fashionista' if it falls within the rules:-

 

Rule #8 // Saddles, bars, and tires shall be carefully matched

 

Valid options are:

 

- Match the saddle to the bars and the tires to black; or

- Match the bars to the color of the frame at the top of the head tube and the saddle to the color of the frame at the top of the seat tube and the tires to the color where they come closest to the frame; or

- Match the saddle and the bars to the frame decals; or

- Black, black, black

I like the read tape with the white saddle as is.

Can I brag about my new backpack? I've been wearing it around the house for testing purposes.

Claim's it can take a 3 litre bladder but I wouldn't go higher than 2. 

I'll be using my existing Camelbak bladder anyways. Lots and lots of sleeves and pockets.

Mid sized so ideal for all day out with the bike and your essentials. I'd say about 5 litres total packing space? 7 including a bladder filled with water.

Insulated sleeve to keep bladder cold

Ventilated padding on the back. You can't see it from the pic but another nifty little feature is you can stash the front seatbelt straps into its own side pockets if you don't feel like using them.

A kangaroo pouch folds out from a small bottom zip. This was what really sold the pack for me. It makes slogging a fullface uphill very convenient. The 2 clips hook onto the top of the bag to secure it.

The hook inside this pounch is handy if you toss your keys in the bag. No need to dig for them when I get to the bakkie. Some other slots for other things too but I'll probably use this pouch for snacks.

Some sort of chainring slash reptile logo so folks know I mean business.

 

Under R400 for a brand new pack with all those goodies so I'm pretty stoked.

Post us some pics - wheelset, not tyre lever!

I originally ordered them from Lizzard

 

Who list the pack as a stocked item on their website.

But I was later told that they have no stock and neither do any of their stores.

The suggested alternatives had nothing on this bag. So I opted for a refund instead.

 

Then a friend dropped a link for a company selling the same bag. Macete Electronics.

Looked like a reseller at the same price but their website listed it as a stocked item as well so I enquired. Turns out they didn't have stock either.

 

BUT, She said she would look around for me and 2 days later presto!

I'm going to buy new grips, just have to decide on a colour that will match. So you can get dips on them so long.
