  1. You guys have been beyond helpful, thanks for all your feedback! I am going to Andrew at Stoke Suspension Works because he did a phenomenal job on my SID too. Will let you know how it goes but I am fully confident in him, especially with the support I've seen here. Thanks again Hubbers, you have made my decision a lot easier.
  2. Hi Hubbers I recently had my wheels trued by my LBS and was pretty dismayed as I subsequently needed to do the job myself as they weren't trued properly at all, a waste of my time and money. Generally I do things myself because then I have the peace of mind that the job has been done properly. However, I am not a professional mechanic and would like my set of downhill wheels tensioned optimally as I can feel some spokes are not at the ideal tension. My wheels are in great condition but I am considering running V-brakes so they need to be true. With this in mind, I ask for your advice as to where in Cape Town I should go, I would appreciate any feedback. At this stage I am considering Andrew at Stoke Suspension Works or Kevin at BMC, however I would like to hear your opinions on the matter. Any feedback will be appreciated, I am situated in Claremont, Cape Town, and am looking for a mechanic in the vicinity. I also have a feeling Bike Mob may be a safe bet, but I've never dealt with them. Thank you in advance
  3. Please can you tell me where I can find them? Google isn't helping
  4. I've been offered this too, can anyone recommend it please? http://www.kaimeracycles.com/product/handleband-device-holder/
  5. Hi Hubbers. I have a Samsung Galaxy S4 Active and use Strava, however I want to mount the phone to my stem while I ride. PLEASE advise me as to where I can find a quality mount for my road bike and cellphone in Cape Town so I can enjoy the benefits of both. Thank you in advance
  6. Hi Hubbers. Please can you advise me which GPS watch to buy and where from? I am looking for something with a decent battery life and reliable, thank you.
  7. Awesome, thanks Hubbers! These are my bikes: Mongoose IBOC Chromoly 24 Speed SRAM X7 - The only original components are the frame and seatpost, think 1990 model Giant Boulder Alu 24 speed Shimano Deore - Again the only original components are the frame and seatpost, the rest are new Giant XTC SE1 Alu 27 speed Shimano Deore XT - I always wanted a XTC and never imagined I'd have a retro one like this. It is in new condition and has a Rockshox SID fork and has been upgraded to tubeless with full Shimano Deore XT 27 speed, approx. 11kg
  8. Anybody still riding or have any interesting V-brake mountain bikes? Please post photos.
  9. Super small, can you help me with these? I'm in Claremont.
  10. Do you have a contact number and their location please? Thanks
