  1. 30.9mm Rapide seat post for anyone that needs it. Mahala to you. Nothing wrong with the post at all, ive just changed it for a dropper instead If you want special postage, send me a beer coupon
  2. Most brands have a youtoobe channel to show you how to install etc. Pretty simple in this modern era
  3. Its actually very simple to be honest. If you can change a tyre you can install a dropper. Look for one that you can service yourself without being tied to an agent. Lyne and One Up, Bikeyoke get the vote here
  4. It depends on what cable fittings the Bikeyoke needs compared to the RS. As an example: The Xfusion needs the cut end to be on the dropper fixed to it with a grub barrel. The Lyne is the other way around with the lug end on the dropper and the cut end on the remote. The Xfusion is a pain in the rear end to get the lengths correct because of the cut end being where it is. The lyne is almost fit and not have to worry about removing it multiple times to get the length correct - win for the Lyne here
  5. Sent you a wa, need to get those rotors and bar to you still
  6. Thanks Barry, I'll take 3 carbon rings please. Thats all i really need. Please pm me details for posting/collect and delivery of chocolate
  7. Anyone have 2 x 5mm headset spacers lying around? Willing to pay in beer coupons
  8. I agree, lets get the truth. Its obviously not going to happen here, so lets wait for the (great) authorities, yes? Im really not sure how you see my remark of please read properly and leave me out of it as a cake eating exercise. That would imply that I am pushing to promote my opinion as the gospel truth, whereby I am not. If I had said "guess what I heard..." would that have made you read it differently and respond to my comment differently? Perhaps yes, perhaps not. My opening remark is as it stands, I am connected to a riding group that knows the motorbike driver. To what huge implication do you refer? Does that make me in automatic agreement with the info I provided? You seem to think it does. Does it make me accoutable to what I transcribed, Yes it would. Does it give you the right of emotional reply? Certainly not. A factual reply, yes sure. Lambasting myself or every motorcyclist out there in the reply doesnt give you the right of reply either. Whilst I do not endorse the actions of either road user, it by no means attributes any blame game from me to who was right or wrong in this case. You seem to think I am automatically for the motorbike driver and all forms of holiganism that is attributed to all evil people on 2 wheels with more than a few horse power avialable to them. There is clear arguments for the pro's and con's of each road user in this entire thread (not only in this instance), and my info provided here is merely to highlight what is said on the otherside of the fence. I do, however, recognise that this might be a bit close to home to many cyclists in the area - perhaps you too, but please dont think for a second that I condone the actions of any road user that steps out of line. In closing, all users of the road know that it is an inherently dangerous game we all play everytime we get onto it, be in in a car, a bus, a taxi (heaven forbid), etc, and if you choose to increase that risk by using a patricularly dangerous part of the network of roads available then that is your choice, not mine. My love for the south african road and its users has diminished far beyond what you can imagine. Mosty people avaoid these areas becuase of the risks involved. Period As for the cyclist, I am very sorry for what happened to him and for where he is right now. I sincerely hope he will be on his bike again soon enough
  9. Yeah, you're right. Lets keep it one sided then. As you were
  10. No, you obviously didnt read the part where i said dont take your emotions out on me as the poster. No i wasnt there, and as i clearly stated i am merely passing on information. You decided on your own to bring emotions into it, not me. Perhaps take a breather then post again without emotional input, or go see someone about it as you could be traumatised by the event. Im not being sarcastic about it either As for the local authorities, there you and I agree but the outcome is not going to be decided here in the local court of social media, is it?
  11. You clearly didnt read my last paragraph did you? Let the authorities sort it out then, yes?
  12. To add some info: I'm on a biker group that has a connection to the rider that hit the cyclist. Want to sit down quickly? The rider was at the back of a group of riders and was on the outside of the lane close to the white line He was not overtaking on a blind corner as thought and has a few car driver witnesses to back it up. The cyclist (ebiker) was the one that cut the corner into the oncoming traffic and impacted the side of the biker as shown in that one photo. That to me makes sense, juding by the impact on the right side on the motorbike and where the bicycle ended up. If the biker was on the oncoming side that ebiker cyclist would be swimming instead. Help was given to the cyclist but the cyclists' group thought it to be better to verbally climb into the lone biker instead of helping their fallen pal. I hear the cyclist was concused and is now in icu for standard check ups Please don't jump on your high horse at me, rather keep your emotional reply at me at bay, im merely passing on information that i find to be factual
  13. I doubt its 7000 dollars total spend? You'll need at least 3 sets - one to wear, one on the shelf, one in the wash. Plus shipping.

  23. Few things to give away. Mahala. Postage for your account, welcome to pm me Cannondale carbon bar (640mm long 😬) 2 x 160mm diameter Shimano 6 bolt rotors (both measure at 2.05mm thick) Lezyne Super GPS ( battery needs to be replaced +-R300 at agents, but the charging plug also needs to be replaced and the agents dont have the right soldering tools to do this - so if you know a good cell phone tech they'll be able to replace this for you) Worked like bomb when battery was good. Easy to operate and bullet proof, i also have a mounting bracket somewhere for it
