  1. Anyone have any stats on how many people rode the full cliffhanger trail down?
  2. Commentator suggestion for 2025 Cape Epic. Bart Brentjens should team up with Rob Warner like the good old UCI days. (Bart wil probally be racing epic next year though) Rob can get sooo excited about the timing splits on the downhill races.
  3. Anyone noticed the Media Bulls E Bike is running a belt system with a gearbox/transmission? You can see a small shifter lever under the bar.
  4. If I remember correctly the 34 is on the DC bike, looking at pics from the launch. I read the specs and it does say 32 and not 34
  5. Sarah Hill. She is currently in Cape Town for Cape Epic. Not sure when she will be going back to Johannesburg( she resides there). You can probably contact her on Instagram.
  6. Expensive bikes (top end bikes for athletes) has been a thing for a long time. If these bikes are targeted at pro cycling teams, why are they advertised to the general consumers. Seems like if they mention the prices of these bikes, lots of comments gets made. Why not just exclude some of the details. That's just my opinion
  7. As already mentioned, it is not a normal brake. When you apply brakes, the motor will automatically cut out due to the sensor in the lever. Not sure of the exact pricing, but it should be around that price inc labour to bleed. Sportsman's warehouse is not a bikeshop, so don't be surprised if they just want to send it back to the manufacturer. I assume you bought the bike there, hence taking it back to them. Please support your Local Bike Shop
  8. Is anyone familiar with the hubs on the bike (expert model). Formula 511 front hub and Formula 3248 rear hub. Is it sealed bearing hubs? Can you get a microspline freehub for this hub?
  9. I would recommend the Maxxis Crossmark II. They do not wear out fast when riding on tar
  10. Anyone interested in a 8speed campagnolo road groupset? Wheels with cassette, f+r derailleur, shifters and bars. Clearing out the parts bin
  11. sounds like cable tension is not correct or the cable is sticky in the housing. It can also be a bent derailleur hanger or cage. Regarding your spokes. If the other nipple/spokes of the rest of the wheel is not corroded, then simply replacing those 2 spokes will not be a problem
  12. Maybe Candice Lill will team up with Tyler Jacobs again after her first W2W last year 🤔
  13. Shimano does a 11speed drivetrain with a 11-51t cassette that fits hg freehub body. Called m5100. Cassette looks identical to the 12speed deore apart from the one gear missing. You will need to buy the m5100 derailleur to work with the big 11speed cassette. The current shifter should work on that derailleur
