  1. a tjyn gaige werk vi my,as die ding se die tjain is amper moer toe,moet jy ma petaal vi nuwe tjain anders gaan jy jou kog op donder hou op ou vis olie gebruik.
  2. Giant is not once a year and not every three months. But I understand what you mean,they can't snap their fingers and recieve special orders every week.
  3. Where did you get that info? :lol: :lol: :lol:
  4. He already said that he expects them to source it and get it at no extra cost,which is NOT going to happen,not with giant not with anyone. The frames and bikes we have in SA are ordered Waaaay in advance,like months.So if they did try and get one,it would have to be from the country that has them.It would have to be flown in and that would cost the Buyer extra.
  5. If you had the cash,which are the MTB wheels you would get. My first choice is the Industry Nine's,whats yours?
  6. order from rush sports R195.00 http://www.rushsports.co.za/Shop/ByCategory/Disk-Brake-Pads.aspx
  7. I am talking about guys that do sell their parts. There are many guys that change bits frequently.
  8. I find it odd......how many hubbers are quick to buy from CRC for the discount.....then when they sell the goods they quote the local retail price? I have a easy way of determining the price I sell my goods. <1 year old = 50% of price (local retail) <2 year old = 30% of price " "
  9. Mavic recomends a mavic freehub oil,yes it is a mineral oil,but don't think that any mineral oil will work well(for long). I have heard of shops that use shimano mineral brake oil,this works,but only for a while,the oil degrades quickly and then the damage starts. Get the mavic oil and service once a month.As it was said earlier,only five minutes,2 allen keys and a lappie.... Hub = Hubber.
  10. Have you serviced the freebody since you replaced it last,and did you also replace the lip-seal at that time? What lube did you use when you installed the replacement body?
  11. there you go....just not worth selling.
  12. https://community.bikehub.co.za/topic/37253-trek-800-mtb-sold/page__p__619435__hl__trek+800__fromsearch__1#entry619435 Check this thread
  13. Better than letting it gather dust ? or maybe keep it for 20 years and it will gain "Retro' status
  14. I am feeling guilty,sitting on my but with a beer and a computer as there are a few hundred riders sweating it out at the moment in the Baviaans Kloof.Most riders are around the 170 km mark now. Damn,I should have been ther....... But this beer is nice too
  15. I think I know of a set in Kleinmond that are not being used,PM me on Monday and I will call the owner .
  16. could not be stainless steel. It is steel The frame is not worth much on its own as cheap alloy frames sell new for R400 The model you have sold for around R1299 back then with a rigid fork and 21sp drive train. They sold by the dozens and there are still many cruizing around.
  17. Looking at the campa c deltas.....i removed a set of those from a merckx about 11 years ago for a customer.Bet he still has them in a box. Note to Self. Call him Monday.
  18. We are mountain bikers,not police-men or sign-writers.It is marked as a MTB trail,but others abuse it.Not complaining,just mentioning the fact that any nice trail will be used for whatever people want ,regardless of signs,etc. Unfortunately we can't afford security like you have on your estate.
  19. In our area we have an issue with a new trail cut for MTB and the motorcross idiots and those with horses assume its there for all. I agree,stay on the trails that are there for you. And on those that should be shared,respect the other users and avoid the crap....
  20. If not asleep in 30 minutes,,,,,,,,,then wake the wife for a quick one....
  21. Big steak and a bottle of red,in bed by 10 and leave the wife alone....
  22. BLIKSEM! I am planning a Niner air with Xo 10 speed will be pretty ,but no "VARKING" way will it ever get down to this weight,you sure you did not sprain your finger lifting the bike while taking the pic of the scale?
  23. The Gt comes as mechanical disc or hydrolic disc or v-brake option At the same price there is also the serfas xc 1 disc tlo look at R 4000 not a bad deal.
