  1. hi all i am considering buying a new mtb from ali express. my options are a complete 29r dual sus, or buying frameset/wheels/shocks groupset and assembling here. anyone done something similar, what did you buy? are you happy with what you got? any comments welcome on this topic. i dont want to hear about why am i not supporting my lbs, rather the good/bad of the bike/wheels you imported from experience. tks in advance
  2. i have fitted a brand new ONZA tyre and the first 1 had a packaging tear in the sidewall, which the bike shop swapped out as i noticed it immediately. the replacement however is leaking as per the comments, i think is BS that a brand new tyre can leak air through the side wall.
  3. recently got the powersync and the joule. great combo i can recommend, however it has to be noted the software and applications are 20th century. there is the virtualtraining online portal, then there are 2 additional thick applications you need installed on your pc, namely poweragent and virtualtraining. if i had a garmin i supect there would be little need for the joule, but the joule adds value as all the data is available and it easily controls the indoor trainer. In addition to the web app portal, and the 2 applications, there is an additional app for your phone to sync the Joule.....I have nothing to compare this experience to for indoor trainers and software, but it is far from ideal. The whole point of all these gadgets is the data and what you do with it, unless you buy purely to get indoors and out of the cold and rain, now i need to figure this out for myself to see it can help me train more effectively or gain power etc......wish me luck!
  4. no idea what time it happened, going to the hospital shortly to find out.... the little facts I do know, it was a family member, and he was airlifted thanks to the help and advice of a medic who was at the scene....
  5. thanks, I see lots of the focus has been the R304 driver hitting the riders from behind. little mention of the 3 hit on chappies, which had to have a cyclist airlifted to hospital.
  6. anyone got more info for me please? or is there an existing thread?
