Christo..... Jou ketting bestaan uit honderde bewegende deeltjies. Om te verseker dat hulle vir hulle beplande leeftyd hou moet hierdie deeltjies skoongehou word. Daar is baie erkende metodes om dit te doen:- 1.) Breek die ketting met 'n chainbreaker, 'n tool wat die rivet uitdruk wat twee ketting dele aanmekaar hou. Was die ketting in 'n reinigings middel of de-greaser wat die vuilheid asook ou besoedelde olie uitwas. Daar is verskeie items op die mark maar lampolie werk die beste. Was die ketting dan met gewone Sunlight Liquid om die oilie basis van die lampolie teverwyder. Laat dit droog word en plaas terug op die fiets. Vervang met 'n spesiale pennetjie as dit 'n Shimano ketting is en olie die ketting met die smeermiddel van jou keuse. Indien dit 'n SRAM ketting is het hulle 'n spesiale skakel wat kan oopskuif sonder gereedskap. Deur elek keer 'n nuwe pennetjie in th sit op Shimano kettings word die ketting verswak. 2.) was die ketting op die fiets , maar doen dit gereeld. Jy kan sommer 'n nat lap neem met Sunlight Liquid daarop en dit om die ketting vou. Beweeg die trappe terwyl jy die ketting toegevou hou en hou aan totdat die seepskuim nie meer vuil is nie. Laat die ketting droogword en olie. 3. Koop vir jou 'n clamshell tipe ketting wasser. Hierdie goed word deur verskeie mense gemaak. BBB en Park maak goie tipes maar almal is ewe goed. Die goed het borsels binne-in wat roteer, met 'n ruimtes vir skoonmaakmiddel. Weereend roteer mens die trappe en die ketting word gewas. Ek was my kettings al vir 'n greuime tyd so en dit is sukselsvol. Kry ook vir jou die ChainGuage wat deur Park gemaak word en vervang as die ketting buite spesifikasie geslyt het.
Since all the "enlightened" hubbers left in the Great Exodus I will try to fullfill that role. Please PM if you need more help. Rod Ti are you importing IE buying on the Internet or shopping at your LBS. If the first you have to do some research as to what you are buying. Exchanging items can be very costly if you order incorrectly. The link below is to the different ranges or Shimano MTB components ie XTR, XT etc. http://bike.shimano.com/catalog/cycle/products/category.jsp?FOLDER%3C%3Efolder_id=2534374302050358&ASSORTMENT%3C%3East_id=1408474395181674&bmUID=1181902017075 On the link below is the one I followed for XTR. In red with the thumbnails you can see the different component numbers. Read up here and compare. Make sure you understand and then oreder. http://bike.shimano.com/catalog/cycle/products/group.jsp?FOLDER%3C%3Efolder_id=2534374302050360&ASSORTMENT%3C%3East_id=1408474395181674&bmUID=1181902047013 If you buy from an LBS you can use their expert knowledge to advise you but at the cost they sell the components for. Hope this helps.Hendrik Petoors2007-06-15 05:16:13
Ek hoop nie die Peregrines of Witkruisarende daar by die Zoo afdraende sien jou nie. Hulle gaan jou hard connect as hulle dink "Sjoe daai is 'n lekker voel om te vreet!!!!!!!!!"
Wonder Woman there is a DAD pop up banner advertising the competition. Wonderfull prize.... SRAM MTB Groupset, Formula Disk Brakes and MTB Wheelset all can be won for a donation of R100-00 that goes to Shaun's Sign Up initiative. And Hubbers..... it does not matter that Shaun's initiative had not reached your area or favourite cycling route yet. IT WILL and SOON. Talks are underway with various Road Authorities and wondeful support has been forthcoming. This initiative is not about ".... but the signs have not done anything for me?????" ( said in a bleating tone of voice) but about cyclists as a collective unified body taking a stance aginst the prejeduce of other road user. This is taking own control about the education of the attitudes of otherroad users.
When I imported my Hope disks and other stuffies I imported grease guns, bleed kits and other stuffies. There was no import tax , only VAT. A Torque Wrench is on my next wishlist. Always go and look on the manufacturers website if you need part specific information or contact the importer and get the correct specifications. No general rule of thumb can be used. NEVER ASSUME ANYTHING. It can and will be a costly excersise if your stem snaps down Chappies.Hendrik Petoors2007-06-14 11:04:33

Hagar I am a passionate BULLS supporter and nothing will change my minsd about that. I am however not willing to discuss the issue as it can create unneccesary tension.
Wonder Woman there is application for all types of groupsets in all types of cycling. One does not have to be manical about your preference but use the best tool to get the job done. The Big H you talk about character might have been as such, I have never met him as I am new on the Hub. I will do some reading on the character tonight as it seems that a lot of hubbers are are confusing me with him. I have also met people that are manical about there brand. All brand have their own virtues and good qualities. You normally get what you pay for as in life there is nothing for free.
Wonderwoman I tried to register my full name, Hendrik Pretorius. The space would not allow me to do that but ADMIN promised to fix that up. I ride tandem. I live in Nigeria and one day when I am light enough I will own a carbon framed racing bicycle with a Campagnola Record groupset. On the Tandem I use Shimano as it is the only groupset really adapted for Tandem use. I will edit my profile with all the neccesary contact details and I will take part on discussions of a technical and administrative nature. I prefer not to get involved in any personal mud slinging contests, and if the occasion occurs I will ignore the poster. I heard there was characters on this messageboard in the poast that took part in activities like that. I will however contests issues where principles are involved, albeit in a civil way.
