Showering / Washing Feet before cycling should help as well.

Maxxis Ikon

Looks Like your bike has been exposed to sea salt by looking at the brake levers. That is typical Durban Rust. Warranty Claim is the way to go.

Rubbing Alcohol (Dischem) kills all Bacteria.

Racing setup asks for a 10-15mm drop from top of seat to bars. Sometimes but not Always Merida Has been winning quite a bit of shi* lately.

Looking Purely At that Saddle Height I would say that the Frame is not too Large.

The Rapide Tigre Frame can be used with Boost or Non Boost Hubs. How is this done ?

There are 2 Systems Propylene Glycol or Latex Ammonia Rough Formula for Propylene Glycol System. Water is 65% by weight, and propylene glycol is 30% by weight. The vehicle contains 2.0% by weight of thickener, 0.5% by weight of nylon fiber, 1.4% by weight of cotton fiber, 0.5% by weight of ceramic powder and 0.1% by weight of dye.

The Sealant Did It's Job. It Got You Home safely without Stopping. Some Guys have posted that they can patch the tyre from the Inside.

I had to plug a small hole in my Ikon yesterday. Topped up 100mils but it just would not seal this hole. If you increase Tyre Pressure say to 2.3 Bar Then the Old Holes Open Up again and then Seal Again. I want to change from Enduro but Don't Know what to Change To. Shelf Life of Enduro Also Sucks (don't buy more than you need). Thinking of trying this Stuff https://www.sportsmanswarehouse.co.za/product/sportsmans-warehouse-tubeless-tyre-sealant/

Thanks

I do use a lot of Lube I ride about 210Km per Week. What do you do. Share Please

Squirt and only Squirt Must get it to soak into the chain roller @ 1 drop per link method. Chain must dry for 2 hours before riding. Never Degrease. Never Remove Chain from Bike. Clean with Dry Rag Only (Don't change Rotation Direction) (Don't Invert Chain ) Lube Every Ride or every 40Km if doing Short Rides. I have 10Speed Chain KMCX10 with 14590Km Measures less than 0.5% wear.

You not Supposed to Cycle on the M4

The Merida 120 9 400 Comes with Suntour Fork and Shock. What does the PYGA come with ? I prefer for myself RockShox over Suntour.

I use it on my brake disks and pads as well.

Got this Stuff From Bearing Man R250 for 500 Mils Looks Like Squirt but Smells a bit Different. Been Using it for 2 Months and I think that its Bloody Wonderful.

Just For Fun Try To Sell that Bike with the Scratch As It Is

I would get that repaired by a professional. https://carbonbikerepair.co.za/wp/ There are other Shops as Well. Don't Paint it Until You have made up your mind of What to Do.
