  1. Lot's of very good advice posted here. Now go and buy a bike, as per the recommendations, and ride up and down the road, see where that takes you. Either you will like/love it, or you will hate it, by which time you will know what you really need in your next bike. Enjoy.
  2. One man's chamois is another man's thumb screw. The chamois is the GTR 3D which is the same as in their premium brand bibs if that's of any help.
  3. Ordered Tuesday morning, arrived Wednesday morning, fantastic piece of kit. Shorts are comfortable, chamois is detachable as a separate pair of inner shorts. https://www.firstascent.co.za/men-s-upshift-mtb-shorts
  4. Interesting responses to this incident on the forum but I am glad it's sorted and he is on his way home, hopefully next time he just phones hotel staff and team management, school fees paid! Sadly the world has changed and we need to think very carefully how we respond to what we see in front of us on a daily basis. How I miss the days when a good PK could sort out most misunderstandings.
  5. If we are talking song titles, I have one for you. "Three little words". Bike Hub Pay
  6. Marnokk been on Bikehub for 1 month and has 31 ads? That's an ad a day! Must be a bike shop.
  7. I've read on this forum that the dishwasher is the go to machine for helmets. Never had the nuts to give it a go!
  8. I'll tell you what happens when I walk into a bike shop: Some guy saunters over and the look in his eye says "what does this old git want to buy in here?" Just asking for some friendly service from someone who knows what he/she is talking about. Of all the bike shops I've been in, Linden Cycles was the only place I enjoyed going to, and I only got good service from three people there, Joneen, Neville and a mechanic called Mike, he was there a good few years back. Sadly I live and work on the other side of town so it's inconvenient to go there. I've tried a good few shops around town and no one else comes close. You did ask!
  9. Joe Breeze was photographed playing a Les Paul?
  10. Ride mostly on my own there, never felt uncomfortable.
  11. In the words of Tom Pidcock “He's playing with our balls... he's taking the piss!”
