BUT if either of these cells are smaller then we could still see a big south east, particularly round cape point area. will reassess thursday good news is that the South easter is almost definitely not the dominant feature here. bad news is....well. take a raincoat i think the term to throw around is Cut-Off Low Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sales on items, not overcharging everything I saw last night could be bought online cheaper 2. Not selling old un-used stock that no one wants (all ex covid stock) 3. Its an "expo" which means exhibition....there was nothing on show ? Expo what's new to cycling etc. However the organizers also need to look at their fees for space probably too expensive and puts off potential stall holders from taking spaces Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
babse Posted March 11, 2022 Share 14 minutes ago, bleedToWin said: I'm not going this year, but I always wonder what people would want from an expo? wonder the same thing... venders have no stock meaning not much to sell and what they do have they cant afford to put on sale. The stuff you need like tyres, tubes etc will not be on sale because well it will get sold anyway. Most of the time, most don't actually know what they want to buy and think they are going to find crazy deals as if that has ever happened at the Expo!? For the past few years I have been stocking up on Cadence products from specials at BikeAlot. This year I have my own supplier so I don't expect to a cent.

That's all items they have stock on. 3. Also no stock of anything new. Only things I ever went shopping for at the expo were clothing items where fitting is preferred and even that was rare.

Purple Rain - check.

Wannabe Posted March 11, 2022 Share Great, your drivetrain will love you in the wet. Only hassle with it is that it goes on thick (as it should do) and it turns your chain and cassette black. Takes a bit of cleaning to get it shiny again. MORNE 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
