  1. Some of my parts collection. The MTB hubs are not that vintage but still dam cool. Magura... Mavic RD and brake calipers. Had these on my Tomasinni till I "upgraded" to newer Shimano 105 with index shifting. Pic of paint scheme I had on my bike. Would love to get that frame again. Then some frame building component I got many moons ago (25 to 30 or so years). Road and some MTB lugs. Had tube sets for both but these got lost when I moved house. With the Mavic RD the lower pivot shaft kept on breaking. I had a couple of stronger versions made that lasted longer. still have one or two unused ones left. Then some other bits and pieces. Suntour friction shifters. SRAM (i think) X-ray MTB grip shifts plus casette, ect. Man cave things. 😁 Also Still have my first MTB frame including the cranks. X-ray shifter was a upgrde to the bike. Giant Sedona SE. 17.5" I think. Would love to have this bike built again. 😍
  2. I remember the shop in Black Heath (?) JHB.
  3. CSA sanctioned some planned. 1 confirmed. Grootfontein. That includes Endoru and DHI. CSA series DHI this year for Gauteng would be run in KZN. DRI there should be three or four but to be confirmed.
  4. Who are the importers of Oneal and Northwave in RSA? Looking at other brands of shoes away from 5Ten. Shoes should be wide. 2FO's are too narrow for me. But the any other brand of flat shoes that fits would do.
  5. And again... Dr could do nothing. Had to heal by it's own. This was 4 weeks ago. Not to mention the broken ribs on same side. Getting out of bed was extremely difficult so I got myself a lazy chair to sleep in for the first week. Then I almost got pneumonia due to not being able to cough.
  6. I noticed there are quite a lot of brands doing this but few does one that protects the side of rib cage sort of decently. Leatt is the best for back and chest but this is heavy and stupidly hot. Body Tee 3DF AirFit Lite. Nothing for the side ribs. It does cover the hips. https://www.leatt.com/shop/bike/protection-gear/upper-body-protection-3df-soft-shell/body-tee-3df-airfit-lite-3771.html O'Neal does a nice one (STV Short Sleeve Protector Shirt) but I would like the back be better is in the BP Protector Sleeve https://www.oneal.eu/en/products/mountainbike/protectors/0280-212_stv-short sleeve-protector-shirt/ https://www.oneal.eu/en/products/mountainbike/protectors/0289-322_bp-protector-sleeve/ I found these two mostly suited for what I want but are there any others? Who are the Importers of O'Neal in south Africa.
  7. I'm not flaming or accusing anybody. Just making sure that all goes well. The way foreward was recommended. Just waiting on the seller to reply.
  8. It is never a good thing to advertise (and support a seller)when you have none to very few posts. Does not matter who you are. Nothing personal but this is th way that most people get scammed. I have alread organised a ficilitator at my cost. Sent a e-mail and PM to seller but still no responce. I pefer to send messages via e-mail or Pm's not by mobile phone. When a deal has progressed then I will go over to miblie phone comms.
  9. I used to wear a pack but was too hot for me. Now I use the Leatt hip pack. Feels funny at first but way less sweat on my back. Down side is that a pack can have a back protector in it.

  11. I'm lloking for a 26" DH fork. One is for sale on BH but the seller has only 3 add. No posts and joined 22 April 2018. Does any body know this person? https://www.bikehub.co.za/classifieds/358045-rockshox-boxxer/
  12. I use Sidi shoes for roadbike and MTB. For flat pedals I ise 510 Free Rider Pro's.
