  1. Unfortunately I can't help with a dent....I'd almost say ride as it is....but def chat to the owner....if it's cracked I could help with that. All best
  2. Hey boys and girls....I wanna clear out on some stuff. Non-boost 29er wheels with tyres SRAM Roam 40, hubs good, XD drive with 11 speed cassette, Min life left, tyres are good. Rear has cracks but holding pressure. May have some rotors for it. Rockshox 35 140mm 29er boost fork, fading on stanchions but working just fine. Steerer about 180mm. SLX 2 speed front derailleur and shifter Welcome to make me and offer, want stuff out. If you know a good charity in Cape town helping underprivileged riders, please send info. PS:I'll also take semi decent whisky whisky
  3. Or better yet...makes an offers....accept the offer.....silence
  4. Sadly everything is escalating at a ridiculous rate. Combination of industry greed that's supported by the growth in the sport, supply chain issues, general inflation, *** currency, heavy shipping rates and a smaller buyer market....it all just means prices sky rocket. Growing up we could never afford a new bike, got older earned more money, couldn't JUSTIFY buying a new bike cause you pay a fortune for something that you still need to upgrade.... rather just stayed in second hand market and built up bikes to spec I actually want, end up riding top end that's maybe a year or 2 old but spent half the money. Gotta remember.... you don't need to keep up with Jones's, just be a better rider and overtake them haha
  5. Picked up a Huawei near the upper parking lot on Sunday 19 Feb around 12/1pm
  6. Haha @BaGearAyour last sentence pretty much is what I'm expecting. Yeah I've reached out to couple brands to see if they'd ship without battery but not to keen. Thinking might ship to mates overseas and get them to take battery out and then ship....still nightmare. Dream would be frame kits but yeah....doesn't happen with E's .... except s-works haha
  7. Sooo I've searched forums and haven't seen much. I know it's difficult thing to do....but anybody gotten it right to import an ebike direct? I know biggest issue is battery. So many brands out there which we just not getting. Personally really would love to bring in a radon render or Vitus E-Sommet both look sick.
  8. I order from them way to often (my wife will confirm this) and it's the easiest international bike shopping experience. Compared to likes of worldwide cyclery, it's a breeze.
  9. Good to know....will be trying both for sure
  10. Hopefully have my rise in December in the interim.....anybody tried mullet conversion? Really interested to hear how it rides. Zeb 160, hope v4, xx1 drive train , arc 30 wheels etc 27.5/29 and burgtec cockpit.
  11. Delights of Shimano.....it's a luss but I ordered titanium lever piston replacement on AliExpress, took a while but worked like a dream. In my searches there was definitely all the caliper spares. Check it out Ps: in the checkout section you can usually choose DHL .... Otherwise free shipping takes months. Also read reviews before ordering
  12. Small point ..the Orbea custom side is really cool BUT their paint work is not great, paint chips so stupid easy, saw model in the shop chip a big chunk just while guys were assembling. After few reviews I read, seems a common issue with the custom spray jobs ..... Personally I've had couple canyons....sick bikes but never had short travel
  13. Thanks guys for mention....happy to help out if I can. Drop me a DM @Deano Bravoand can try get you sorted 🤘🏻
  14. Used hub pay multiple times....works like a bomb....I think my favourite part is that I can pay with credit card...efting can be a luss
  15. I'd be pretty interested to see what the specs are, personally I'd be more keen on frameset alone so I can build up to my specs. Be keen to hear which brands, theres so many goodies out there I've looked at but shipping is always my issue cause I'm an idiot with regards to that stuff haha But lead time is all good...prices sound good too
  16. He loves it and wants to push it! Knows the risks and is calculated. That's why he's a pro! Good on him! If not for those guys taking risks the sport wouldn't have grown to what it is. Also, not the craziest line he's ridden.
  17. yeah....like i said...bought a yeti, kinda been a dream build so can only keep one
  18. just came across this thread....thought I'd share my Pascoe build....loving the bike but before i finished it i spent more than i should of on a yeti...so gotta sell one to avoid divorce haha Sprayed pearl white and copper, the head badge is Damascus steel and copper. Underneath i made a cable routing channel / bash guard and of course the trust KCNC bottle opener to cover up front derailleur mount. Hope you guys like...cheers
  19. This is crazy...I live in milnerton. Drove past CC , bike was there still yesterday. Couple years back same thing came to light there, was a stolen santa cruz and some core drilling equipment they were selling that had company branding on it. So ridiculous. Hope you all get case closed and CC takes some responsibility.
  20. Those pygas are hot
  21. Haha hard tail market....not hotel market
  22. I've wondered the same thing for a while, personally I think it's because the hotel market is becoming so expensive you may as well buy a fully. My favourite bike in the last couple years has been an octane one prone 27.5" with a 140mm fork. Every time I went to a park guys would ask where I got it because it's such a cool bike. I just don't think people remember how cool hard tails can be. I went back to it, because I'd become lazy and ended up having more fun on it.
  23. Hey man, regarding rules .... Not so sure .... But been riding Eden, g-spot and Taal with no hassles. Trails pretty busy too. Think only places being controlled is the paid for trails. I'd say go enjoy!
