Hi all,
Hope everyone is well and all the best for 2021.
I am looking at a MTB for the wife, it has taken some convincing but she finally agreed to give it a go.
Here is the conundrum, I want to get her a dual suspension to make the ride, especially on some gravel better, but I dont want to spend to much if she does not take a liking to biking.
What I have seen is that I will probably not get a dual suspension for under R24k or am I looking at the wrong shops?
Thanks,
Have a look at this
I'm 62kg and run Maxxis Ikon 2.35 front and rear on Carbon Hardtail
Front - 19psi
Rear - 23psi and sometimes 21psi on very loose technical terrain
Hi. Speak to Frank at Bike Addict he sourced me one direct from Cube for R280 original.
He's folks keeps on bailing him out and I see he busy advertising on FB again
Die laaitie wil nou net nie hoor nie. Ive got his details, parents details as well as adress if anyone looking for it. Dis tyd om hom 'n les te leer.
I'm 63kg and run 23psi front and 25 rear. Both Ikon 2.35 on 21mm rims. For the more technical trails I run 20psi front and rear. Oh and I'm on a HT
Speak to Frank at Bike Addict he should be able to help you.
sounds like someone needs a hiding
My point exactly and I was actually on my way to pay him a visit yesterday. I decided against it after spoken to his folks. They are deeply hurt by his actions and don't know what to do anymore. I even got details of his routine running route.
His folks are well known Pastor's in Somerset and his mom was very embarrassed when I talk to her last night. Sounds like they are fed up and just pays everyone back he's scamming.

Hi, It also happened to me last Friday. I manage to track the bank account and the account registered to is Dwayne Lackay in Somerset Cape Town. I even got his house adress and parents number which i got from a fellow hubber. I spoke to his mom last night and she will be paying my money back (i know its not her fault). This lad has been scamming people since 2017. Please contact me on 0835619483. I will be taking a drive to his place.
R750? That is outrageous!!
Yip. And thats excluding shipping cost of R100 plus.
Pls give me a call for these hangers

Awesome! Looks like I'm winning. Will be contacting you in the morning. Out of interest, I was quoted R750 by a bike shop in PTA. It that the price?
Or try asking someone with a 3D printer.
Thanks. I will ask around.
Wheels Manufacturing (https://wheelsmfg.com/) pretty much makes copies of the majority of hangers out there, both new and old. Demetri your looks like hanger 312 and Ashchest yours looks like Hanger 149.
Rush sports used to be the distributor for Wheels Manufacturing but it has been off their site for at least 6 months. I'm not sure who, if anyone has taken over the distributorship.
Alternatively Demetri, your hanger is also used on Felt bikes and I see that there is a new agent for Felt in South Africa. https://www.bikehub.co.za/features/_/news/industry-news/black-marlin-reintroduce-felt-bicycles-into-south-africa-r7836
Ashchest, I'm almost convinced that I saw a similar hanger at Solomons in Woodmead. Perhaps give them a call and see.
Sweet man. Thanks a mill
Always treat your toys with good products. Brunox comes highly recommended and I use it.
My 2nds lost that same part for me a few weeks back, you can only buy a pair. If you in JHB, Jack and sprocket has stock...
Thanx. Unfortunately Im in CPT. Will check with them.
Good day Hubbers,
I recently got myself a secondhand Cube Reaction GTC Pro Carbon with about 300km on the clock. This was really good deal with the bike in mint condition. The bike is still boxed and i'm thinking of trading it for a Silverback Sola 1 or 2. I also have a new 1x12 X01 groupset that im dying to put on. Before i do the trade I need some info. There is no guarantee on the frame since i'm the second owner. Is this a good idea to keep the frame or should i get the Sola 1? Appreciate your feedback.
Hi hubbers.
Time has come for an upgrade. I have my eyes on a Specialized Stumpjumper 2016 Hardtail but cant get my hands on it. Now im leaning towards the Silverback Sola2 2019 edition for R15000 at bike addict. The whole groupset will be replaced with a mix of GX and X01 Eagle parts that i allready had purchased. Wheels will be from Rapide with hope pro 4 rear and Reverse evo front hubs. Now for the question. Is this a good buy? I do races from 60km to 100miler. I love my hardtail and currently having a Silverback Spectra with 1x11 and rapide wheels. Thanks and your feedback will be highly appreciated.
Great wheels. Wayne build me a rear wheel and all i can say is wow.
Remember to pack earplugs, as those stable walls don't go all the way up to the roof... And enough warm bedding.
Agh nog dit ook nog! Ek het gedink slaapsak en dis dit. Sal maar ekstra blankets vat. Duisend dankies.
