  1. Going into the store and asking for some entry level components on an entry level bike to be swapped for other entry level components is going to get you nowhere. Get the bike fixed under warranty and ride it. If it continues to break, continue to take it in under warranty and get it fixed until the warranty is no more. Hopefully by that time you'll be ready and able to go for something nicer And no, you were not cheated. Manufacturers regularly had to substitute parts on bikes in the recent past just to be able to have units to sell. Not the case now, but could have been when your bike was manufactured
  2. Quick version, you might need to do a bit off googling to get it 100%. Download the APK off their website. Pop it on a USB drive. Make sure you change the settings on your MiBox to install unverified apps and to ignore warning messages. Download an APK installer. Run the installer. Select the Sportsfire APK and you are done
  3. Got Sportsfire grafting on my Mi-box yesterday. Looking forward to watching the racing this weekend
  4. The nipple looks in worse shape than the rim.
  5. Get a gym membership and go use the Wattbikes there, much easier. You will need a 26" rear wheel and trainer tyre to work with the trainer you posted above. A trainingapp of some description is highly recommended otherwise you will just be sitting there grinding away mindlessly and getting no training benefit. Also keep in mind that using an IDT with a mountain bike is a real chore as you are limited with your hand positions, and it can become quite uncomfortable quite quickly.
  6. Not the bike for me, but that top end one with all the bells and whistles looks delicious
  7. Very nice. Can see a little bit of another SA brand in the design and geometry, but that is not a bad thing
  8. Trailwolf Cycles at Taroko Trail park in Modderfontein can do the service for you.
  9. Bring that fork, I will fill it with KTM goodness
  10. Lots of good feedback in other forums from suspension techs for the Motorex 2,5wt fork oil: RACING FORK OIL 2,5W - BIKE LINE | MOTOREX
  11. Using the method suggested I've found the seller and the wheels are turning. Hopefully everything falls into place
  12. Hi There Is there any way to view favourite ads that may have expired, but have not been delisted? I've had my eye on something for a while and would like to make a move on it, but have not been notified that it has been sold. I'm hoping it is just expired and still available, if I could at least make contact with the seller to confirm, it would be a big help
