  1. For some reason this kicks my anxiety into over drive
  2. Right foot forward turning left your foot smashes into the Tyre. Mine weirdly only touches when I have stopped and need to pull away to the right. *** annoying Sent from my MHA-L09 using Tapatalk
  3. I have had great service from BM, They have a whatsapp number as well as an online chat client. Both times i got instant responses.
  4. WTAF????? The justice system in the god forsaken country is a f****** joke

  7. Yeah looks like a weapon of some sort. well handled by the cyclist though. de-escalated the threat and got away.
  8. Boom, Seems like he got out the truck without a real plan. Love it
  9. Thanks, rides like a dream
  10. First decent commute in a week. Last week was a joke due to getti g my car back from the mech and perpetual rain. Such a leke feeling getting to the station dripping with sweat and having people in work clothes look at you like you have just climbed out of a piece of cheese. Sent from my MHA-L09 using Tapatalk
  11. Awesome pic but just imagine what it must be like to stay in such a densely populated place
  12. Holy thread necro batman
  13. Man that was a sharp move
  14. Clearly I need to clean and lube more often than I currently do lol. Just got my car back from some major surgery so I haven't been commuting this week, Thankfully cause it has been rather wet.
  15. I suppose with a geared bike it needs to be done a bit more frequent The reason i ask is cause i cant remember when last i washed my bikes both of which are single speeds. I just lube the chain when it gets dry.
  16. An another note, How often do you guys clean and lube your commuters ?
  17. Im honestly not sure why Shimano thought it would be a good idea to design a system that requires a propriety tool in order to remove a crank
  18. Gone before i could troll back Damn
  19. Its the TL-FC35, to remove the nds crank arm. No way around it. A while ago i was going to measure out the one from the LBS and have a mate turn one up on his lathe for me. But eh, seemed like a lot of work for a tool that gets used VERY little.
  20. I have been looking for one for ages, I managed to borrow one from my LBS. The price tag is just ridiculous
  21. Now a store bike, has done quite a bit of mileage. Lol the tensioner did fail for some reason and I didn't even notice it till the chain started jumping off. Wheels and bearings are shot, the bb is rough and the fork feels like it's sprung by a pool noodle. Still a fun bike to ride but not reliable enough for everyday commute. All parts used to build this bike was purchased off the hub
  22. Would love a dedicated Steel SS frame as a commuter, Going to install a White Industries ENO ECC hub on my cotic once my current chain is stretched to sh!t.
  23. Show me yours and ill show you mine I also have an old 26er that has now been retired and will become my shop/pub bike
  24. Yeah thats bs man its nonsense like this that people need to be made aware of
  25. Yeah i noticed by that yesteryear stem length
