  1. Hi guys and gals. I'm looking for advice on a decent 24" bike for a 7 year old. My 4 year old is eyeing his older brother's bike and is desperate for something with gears, so I thought I would get a new bike for my older son and pass down his bike to his brother. He currently has a Titan Hades SE 20" and I would like something similar in 24". It doesn't seem like any of the 24 offerings have an air shock like his Hades SE does, and looking at value for money, the Avalanche Ignite looks like a great buy. It also has the drop top tube which will help at the beginning. Can anyone offer feedback on this or alternatives in the same price range. Thanks in advance. Here is the link to the Avalanche https://www.avalanchebikes.co.za/products/avalanche-ignite?color=matte%20blck%2Fsilver&size=24%22
  2. Looking for a shimano M785 left lever. Kids right lever broke and LBS replaced with the above, now the left has gone and would like to make them match. Happy to pay or send beer.
  3. I'm looking for a Shimano m785 left hand brake lever for my kid's bike if anyone has one they're willing to part with. Happy to pay.

  5. This is absolutely insane. I hope those responsible are caught. I'm commenting so I can find this thread later. I often come across very suspicious adverts in the WC. Will post any I find.
  6. Seen on FB marketplace Stolen or best deal this year. https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/1109530763517601/
  7. I've got two bike trailers you can have if you'd like. One is a weehoo the other a BMX style one. Both attach to the seat post. Pm me.
  8. I have one of these and it's very decent, but I wouldn't buy it if I had an e-bike.
  9. Looking forward to seeing "lightly used carbon rim" for sale in the classifieds soon... Sorry OP, that does really suck. Over the long weekend I passed many a car where the exhaust looked way too close to a bicycle wheel.
  10. What I took from this thread is that I must crash as much as I can now before reaching 40 in a few years. Got it.
  11. Looks like an old Morewood. If so, this was a fairly common problem.
  12. I have a caddy maxi and it really is a superb vehicle. Parts, servicing and fuel costs are negligible and it has tons of space. They're not the most refined vehicle, but every time I think of upgrading to an SUV, the practicality wins me over again. Your are right though, they're very difficult to find with low mileage and not abused. Prices have also gone up a lot. Mine is now worth a fair deal more than I paid for it 4 years ago. Good luck with your search
  13. Saw this on FB marketplace and thought it was suspicious.  Bike still has membership board attached so can possibly be tracked to someone. https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/2316627128520271/?mibextid=dXMIcH
  14. If anyone is upgrading, I'm looking for a 3kw, 24v inverter. Would prefer to buy from a reputable Hubber rather than brave the wilds of marketplace and scamtree.
  15. I bought my Spank 359's from CRC for R1000 each, that included shipping and import duties. Never heard of the website referenced.
