I was contacted by someone who was interested in a bike I was selling. Started getting a bit dodgy to me and I asked for an photo of his/her ID. The person than actually sent me a photo of an ID matching his name. It was a paypal scammer at the end. But these scammers are getting clever and is one step ahead of us by matching their name to the ID. I have no other idea how to check if a person with who I am dealing is a scammer or not. Truecaller helps now and then though🤷‍♂️

I have actually experienced a chain slipping off the big chainring at the front on a 3X. Turns out my BB was loose. It was those cheaper extremely heavy threaded BB's. Worth a check on your bike

Anyone that can help me with a plate like this?

Cool, send me a private message if he is interested

I've got a dura ace 172.5 if you are interested🤣

If anyone is in need of this shifter cover you can have it for free, just pay shipping (postnet to postnet R99 or Pudo for R40)

What year model is your crackendale?

@DieselnDustWhat would you recon the bike is worth?

Any collectors interested? Bike is in good condition

Sounds like Apple products..

Anyone maybe have low mileage 11 and 13t cogs for a 10s cassette

I've got some black esi grips that are about 10 months old and have started going white/yellow in colour from sun and sweat. I have tried cleaning them with brake cleaner and shop towel but although it does work, it takes forever. Anyone have any other methods of cleaning them? I have heard that there is some type of acid that works, but don't know which one.

On one of the photos taken from the left side you can actually see the xt logo on the backside of the cassette

Awesome idea. Thanks, I will definitely try it!

Does anyone have something similar to this or know where I get it locally? It is to use a bottom pull front derailleur with internal cable routing. Cablr housing is coming out underneath the BB.

Hi. I am looking for a new or secondhand front Shimano derraileur. It must be a side swing and needs to mount with a clamp. If anyone has something like this please message me. I can also do a trade with my current Shimano deore 2X bottom pull which mounts via a clamp.

Cool, tnx. I will go have a look.

Does anyone know where I can find some chainring bolts for the small chainring on a 96bcd shimano 2X crank. I would like to buy new ones.

Hi. Does anyone know where I can find a Silverback stride expert frame? It needs to be a XL 29er.

Yes on the model under the flagship in the zini range you get mostly the same parts except for the drivetrain. It has a 11speed shimano 11 50 cassette . Which is still way better than sram sx or nx. The 1X makes shifting easier and you won't have to struggle with cross chainging and stuff like that. Go for a test ride on all of the bikes.

If you are going for a new bike, do not buy a bike with a Sram 12speed SX derraileur and shifter. Those things break very soon. Coil fork will be heavier but not necessary for an air fork. In my opinion the new zini bikes comes specced very good for the price. I would go either for the elite, but I have not ridden the bike so I can't tell you if the air fork is decent or not

Ok, I'll try and give feedback

Does someone know if you can add air tokens to the markhor? Only at 80% of my travel I can feel it getting more progressive, before that it's very soft. And I am runnig higher pressure than the chart reccomends. I am at 135psi at the moment and they recommend why less for my weight. Added is the chart, which recommends between 85 and 100psi. This is the link to the service manual https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&url=https://www.leaderfox.cz/data/content/Markhor%20Service%20and%20Travel%20Change%20Guide.pdf&ved=2ahUKEwi8mKiX7qf3AhXUs6QKHaBoBAUQFnoECAgQAQ&usg=AOvVaw1WgZvFbPOtFS28q18-3XIa

Bike was bought in the UK and shipped to SA. As far as I know this specific model was never sold on SA except for the 400 and 500, which has lower grade parts on.

I'll rather sell the bike as is. I have a xc bike that is perfect for the trails near me. This bike deserves some decent trails
