shaper Posted May 18, 2021 Share Vaccine passports may be required to race soon?

As mentioned in a different thread a while back: I can see Vaccination tourism becoming a real thing if it means you can back to doing the things you love. Plenty of Athletes will probably do it if they have no other way to enter events. shaper 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am using Joggie's for Durban next weekend, so can give you feedback afterwards, (supposedly roll-on/off, no dismantling) Edited May 28, 2021 by shaper ScottCM 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am using Joggie's for Durban next weekend, so can give you feedback afterwards, (supposedly roll-on/off, no dismantling) Joggies was good. I also hear Fabians transport is the same as the guys often work together. Bike was dropped off at Cycle Lab (or one of the shops they state) on the Wednesday. By Thursday afternoon got a whatsapp to say in Durban. I collected on Friday afternoon, bike is hung and fixed in a trailer (no dismantling of anything). After race returned bike to same pickup/drop off point. Seems they drove through the night and by Monday morning got another WA message advising bike was back at Cycle Lab. Picked it up later in the day. Bike well looked after and plenty of WA notifications. So will be happy to use Joggies again. ScottCM 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had the pool to himself, and pulled out the big boys bike with the solid disc even for the ride. Those two mates, and his family, deserve a big big flippen medal.

robbybzgo Posted July 2, 2021 Share Looking by for a Wilier Triestina Blade 2016 saddle clamp and seatpost clamp/ wedge if any triathlete crashed his frame and maybe didn't replace it...? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably best to try ebay. Are ASG still the distributers? Perhaps can reach out to them to see if they are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robbybzgo Posted July 2, 2021 Share ASG (quite difficult to get hold of) have a saddle clamp but not a seatpost! Don't think that they are Wilier agents anymore. Have trawled the net for other sources but absolutely no luck... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robbybzgo Posted July 2, 2021 Share Sounds like a great idea...who might have a Wilier Blade 2016??...that I can borrow your seatpost clamp for a couple of days in Durbs..? I can purchase the saddle clamp...found one, just the seatpost wedge/ clamp needed. Edited July 2, 2021 by robbybzgo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lurkerza Posted July 2, 2021 Share Have a chat to @Carbon Ninja he is in Durban and does some incredible work on all sorts of repairs, even machining hard to find hangers, so I am sure e could make a plan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
