Been looking for stands for the bikes.  I want something that will allow me to place the bikes in different spots in the garage, ie not a single parking bay.

 

 

That big store in Bellville has their own brand of stand ... but the design has not kept track with the modern wider MTB tires ....  

 

 

Then I found these HOLDFAST stands -

Even a nice grippy 29x2.35 tire has ample free space in this stand  :thumbup:

 

 

You can pay R399 per stand in Durbanville .... or R260 at King Cycles  :thumbup:   :thumbup:

 

 

 

Got some green tape, so that Maritz can decal his stand ...  :whistling:

On my list of things to do this year, plywood stands that grip the wheel once the weight of the bike is placed on it. Copy of this design...:

That should be easy enough to make .....

 

 

Nice for a single bike.  But not ideal if you need to reverse 2 or 3 bikes into their stands .... or am I missing something ?

I was given a pair of these socks, and bought a camelbak for myself. My old one vanished from the garage.

I also bought new rotors and grips, but those aren't very exciting.

Just arrived...

 

Too tired from a long work day to do anything with them, although that lyne bag only comes with screws to mount on the rail and not the straps like in a few shots. Will see...

 

Did find the shipping a bit odd, got a nice hard cardboard tube when I ordered my alu bar, but the carbon on comes in bubble wrap with a bit of cardboard on 1 side, in a plastic bag.

 

Would think carbon would get the better treatment.
