Thank you @Chavo who sent me some files and for the link @NotSoBigBen I printed off a few different versions to play around with.

@Chavo and @Omicrom - these are great little inventions! I am in need of a FD cover plate, are either of you able to supply one or two please? Even the 3D file would help please. Thank you.

OTB closed over a year ago. I'm also in central Durban North if you need.

I'm using Hubtiger to track services and components etc. Does anyone know how to easily swap components on the app (a chain for example) that I rotate every 300km? Thanks

I got this one from Dominic at Summit. I see he's got one left. Good kit and always excellent service from Summit.http://summitbikes.co.za/index.php?id_product=761&controller=product

Possibly a data field needs to be added to the swimming activity? I've just checked, under Pool Swim activity, there are no stroke related data fields. If I add a custom data field and then look in the Stroke Fields, there's a few options to choose from including Average Strokes Per Length for example.

In my case, I usually give credit when it's due and tend to keep quiet when I have a bad experience. My experience with comms and Cogent. In August I emailed them asking for a small Fox part I needed. No response. I reached out to Omnico to ask if I could get the part directly or if they could recommend someone. They contacted Cogent and then of course I got a reply to my original request. The outcome here: https://community.bikehub.co.za/topic/186544-cogent-ind-and-omnico-shout-out/ (see, credit where it's due). 3 weeks later I wanted a Fox decal kit and some options and pricing on remote lockout for my Fox factory fork and Fox float performance shock. Emailed. No reply after 3 days, sent a follow up. I got a 1 line reply simply stating my fork can be fitted with a remote but not the shock. I obviously needed more info, what's available, what are costs, turn around time, the usual. So I tried calling. Call rang off unanswered. Okay, they're busy. Website advertises WhatsApp contact. So I sent a message stating who I am, that I tried calling and what I wished to discuss. Message delivered and they show up as "online" almost instantly. I'm still waiting for a reply to that. That was 3 months ago, I've spent my money elsewhere now.

Thanks for the replies guys. I will press on with my existing 12s chainring and see how it goes before replacing, shot!

Hey all, About to put a new 1x12 XT upgrade kit onto my MTB. Do I need a special chainring for the Shimano HG+ 12 speed chain? I'm reading differing opinions online, comments about using a SRAM power link on the Shimano chain. Thanks

I tried the Ambush and no matter how much I tried tweaking the adjustment dial, it just wasn't a good fit. Tried the Tactic 3, also MIPS and it was chalk and cheese with fit. Excellent helmet. Been using it for over a year. I bought the Fox Speedframe Pro (size large) online a coupe of weeks ago as I wanted a 2nd/spare helmet. Have not ridden with it yet, but it's a very good fit thankfully.

I was at Solomon's this week, they had tons of stock from 26" to 29".

And....

Dylan (The Bike Mech) is expecting stock of Maxxis this coming week.

I've had the Huawei for about a year and it's worked well. The only thing that bothers me about this scale is the inability to share and backup the data. Huawei offer no way to do this as far as I have been able to find. Linking to Garmin, Strava or MyFitnessPal for example is not possible. Once you've used the scale, you need to manually enter the data into other platforms. There appears to be numerous calls for this feature on Huawei support forums, but they don't bother to even respond. Also, I have not found a way to backup/preserve historical data. When I changed phones, I lost all previous data (and I tried to backup before moving to new device incl. odd apps like Helium). There is no ability to backup data (without being rooted on Android - which I never tried) and even though you login/need an account to use their scale app, even that does not retain data. So dare you need to wipe or change your phone, cheerio to all your previous scale data. If I had known the above before hand, I would have bought something else. The Garmin Index Smart Scale had a very bad reputation with incorrect body fat readings. I saw the review of the second version of the Garmin scale this week and I'll consider getting this when it's released here. My wife and I both have Fenix 6 watches, the scale will be a good addition.

Chest holster only, never on the bike (or anywhere that's not on your person).

I had a couple of pairs, I felt the quality wasn't very good. Sold off all my Indola riding items.

I went from 5x+ to 6x Sapphire, no regrets at all. I would not get the pro version (no sapphire) without putting a glass protector on it.

Necropost alert! I am doing the same thing as the OP. About to order from Invisiframe in the UK. Anyone want to combine their order to split the DHL shipping costs? Was about to order and thought I would check here first. Edit: I've gone local and ordered from https://armour-ride.com/

Just a quick shout out to Bradley at Omnico and Jacques at Cogent Industries. I needed a very small external part for my Fox fork. Between these two fine gentlemen, I managed to get sorted in finding what I needed within an hour or so and Jacques actually offered me the option of buying a new part or having a used one he had completely free. With gestures and service like this, it's definitely worth giving feedback on and will result in me returning to Cogent for future purchases and service work! Thank you again.

Thanks all, I'm convinced by the unanimous vote for the Lyne wheels

I think that's where the Stans fall short, American Classic hubs but both wheels are 32 hole, I could swap hubs out. Thanks on the RD.

Thanks, yes keeping all mentioned except the bars, new one is wider and carbon.
