5 pages of comments later and it's pretty obvious to me why Nico hasn't been able to buy a bike yet ???? There is a common denominator here

Admin removes the spiteful rating against you, every time

It's a difficult time for buyers that like a longer buying process. The guys that go through the motions, asking all the right questions, then viewing and then thinking about it properly before making a decision. For everyone one of those there are 3 guys keen to jump in their car now, pay full asking and ride off with their purchase right there 'n then. I often get buyers asking for the bike to get couriered to them within minutes of posting and ad. Unfortunately this means that the more cautious or uncertain buyers often miss out on a good deal

Hi Nico, from my experience the bikehub rating has been very effective to identify sellers with poor business ethics. Where I lost all sympathy is where you refer to resellers as leaches...

I love my road bike on the road I love my MTB on the trails/single-track I love my gravel bike as a training bike, super comfy on the road and a thrill on gravel roads Now I'm building a hardtail with drop bars and a rigid fork for long gravel adventures

I love my gravel bike, but when I know that I'll be facing technical sections or long stretches of heavy corrugated roads then I take my dual sus. Currently I'm building up a monster cross bike, basically a carbon hardtail with a rigid fork, gravel handlebars and MTB wheels. Will let you know how she goes.

Going with candy red and chrome, something along these lines

Busy getting the parts together for my own MonsterCross. Managed to to find a StumpJumper 29er frame with Roval Disc Road wheels. Will fit SRAM Force 1x11 Hydraulic Levers with an XO1 11 Speed rear derailleur. I just need a crank. Frame going in for a fresh coat of paint next week.

Came across his fake Facebook profile today, link below: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100068877624562 He also has a fake Instagram and Twitter profile set up: https://twitter.com/DanielMullet_DM https://instagram.com/mullet_daniel He uses the following number on whatsapp: 0791644902 Iv posted a warning on Facebook on Secondhand Cycles SA as well as on our whatsapp cycling classifieds group

Here is some insight from a used bike dealer's perspective as to why prices are higher 1) Massive increase in demand 2) Massive shortage in supply 3) The market is strong, so trade in prices are higher as bikes are holding their value. So we paying more than usual and therefore have to sell for higher than usual 4) Massive increase in new bike prices. The trade value is linked to the retail value and increases according. Great news for guys who bought new bikes, your bikes will hold a lot more value than previous years Great news for guys who bought used bikes, as you might be able to sell your bike for more or less the same than what you paid for it a year ago. Cycling is definitely not dying, there has been a massive boom of new cyclists since lockdown and its not yet slowing down

Q20 and a Hydraulic jack

I had an awesome experience this past weekend. Broke my pedal while away on holiday in Marloth Park. Thought I would take a chance and commented on a local mountain biker's ride on Strava, asking if he perhaps had a spare set. He ended up driving 10km to meet me half way with a set of pedals and refused payment. Mountain bikers are awesome people Thanks Willie Horn from Komatipoort

Have you tried the classifieds?

The Facebook link no longer exists, I was however contacted via whatsapp and offered a black and red Specialized Epic along with a Cannondale CAAD 8. The number used in question is 0733316494

Looking for 12mm TA end caps for Roval CL 40 Disc Wheels

Some details would be great How did he contact you? Is Henk J is bikehub username? How did you know it was a scam?

Just 80km to go for me. I have been unsuccessful in this challenge twice before, mainly due to rain and family commitments. This year has been much easier after a 130km ride on the 24th and the perfect weather conditions to date. I have even had time to take my boy out on the trails today and Sunday for a 20km dad and lad pedal

Sorry for your loss The whatsapp profile photo of the buyer is commonly used by a Facebook scammer. I have come across him a few times

Zwift won't appeal to everyone and very few will use all the functionality. As for me, I love zwift. I love the group rides, meetups and the racing. I also enjoy having all my training peaks workouts synced and ready to load.

I'm just waiting for my frame so that I can start my 1x roadie build. Chose etap 11 Speed with a 9-34T cassette from E-Thirteen with a 44T chainring upfront to give me roughly the same range as 52/36 11-28T.

You can use the Ultegra Di2 with cable brakes on a disc bike. You just need mechanical calipers. TRP make mechanically activated hydraulic calipers.

I'm a fan of the classic bed Rocker - The Water Bed

That's a pity, I bet you'd make a great politician, especially when publicly bashing competitive products on what you believe to be design flaws. Unlike the political climate in SA we would prefer our product to do the talking. ROQA ON
