  1. Hi guys. This is what I've bought. Went out this morning for a short ride. It was fantastic. Best decision I've ever made. I've noticed a few things. The front derailleur needs a slight adjustment. I got a bit of chain rub in 8th gear. I've contacted the shop, they said to bring it back for adjustment. I'd rather they check it first before I interfere and ruin it more.
  2. Hi guys. So I pulled the trigger. I've got a scott bike in a small frame. I tried sitting on the medium frame and it was too big. The small frame is just right. Being a second hand bike I also got them to change the rear tyre, which they so kindly did not charge me for. I've also purchased a helmet, pump and bottle cage. Look forward to riding this evening.
  3. Hi guys. Thank you very much for all your advise. So the bike is a cannondale not canyon. Its a medium size frame. According to the salesman its my size. His got other brands and sizes as well, but he says this particular is the most suitable for me.
  4. Thanks guys. I will make sure to look out for the size.
  5. Thanks for the advice guys. Yes I'm short. 1.65m. I will post pics once I find what I'm looking for. I do look forward to riding a bike again.
  6. Hi guys. I'm a newbie here. Looking to start riding to improve my health. I just recovered from Covid19. Anyways I've been looking at bikes for the last few days. I found out that cheapies from game and makro could cost me more in the long run as they are inferior quality. I've seen a few second hand bikes at a shop. Question is which one do I pick. The brands I've seen are wheeler California Silverback All are 26er(my size) with aluminum frames. The 21 speed with Shimano gears. There's a few scratches on all, the California has a small crack on the gear handle. Its cosmetic only. The silverback has a rusty front derailia. All are selling for r2500. I don't know which brand to pick
  7. Hello. I'm a newbie. Found this website through Google. I'm looking to purchase a mountain bike. Came here looking for advise or rather what other people say on the matter.
