  1. Freehub. Open and clean out all the grease. Grease only the springs with a light grease. Test again.
  2. The PCB is a weak point of the Kickr. The fact that they don’t so regular repairs is frustrating. I’m on my 3rd Core since 2020.
  3. Sounds like the axle on the hub isn’t “locked” in place after tightening.
  4. Proper no-nonsense bike. Looks bulletproof in the specs.
  5. Bought another bottle of Squirt ebike lube. It is for me acoustic bike. I use the ebike one because i put down so many watts boet!
  6. Definitely doesn't taste the same.
  7. Pick the lightest one then. Both perform very well.
  8. What is the application?
  9. Steady Spin

    Helmet!

    Stop worrying about how it looks. Nobody else cares. Get the best protection you can afford and just ride with it.
  10. Self adhesive Velcro. Stick the crunchy side onto the lever. Perfect with gloves and wont eat them up.
  11. Gloves with little rubber nubs on the fingertips.
  12. Which he has the tools for to build it himself.
  13. Don’t hire ego driven “snotkoppe” that looks down on someone that brings an old bike in for a part or service. Treat everyone with the same respect.
  14. The 23km no longer exists which takes a lot of cool stuff out of the trails The 30km is a lot of forest roads now with very little of famous single track trails. What is there though is phenomenal. Miyas will blow your mind. No Balls will challenge your rocky riding like nothing else The 15km is also mostly forest road but has a gem of a trail called Isikhova that will make you slog up the hill more than once to do. If you know the trails I’m sure you can find things like Prodigal Son, Richerts Realm, The Bachelos, Sid Vicious etc etc etc and experience the “old karkloof” that many of us fell in love with over the last 10+ years Ps. Was there two weeks ago. Left happy but slightly let down.
  15. Need the bridge as well. Spoke to them this morning. 4 to 6 weeks to order. Guess I’ll wait.
  16. The guy clearly did it for the views. Now that he doesn't have sponsors monetising the channel he needs as many eyeballs as he can find.
  17. Dumbass over here dropped the nose bridge piece while cleaning the lens before a ride and I'm struggling to find a replacement online. Any suggestions on where to start looking or if someone perhaps have some spares I can buy.
  18. What did I just read. Is this Japanese by chance?
  19. Don't you guys have the FX versions of Checkers?
  20. Glad I don’t have a mainstream brand 😅
  21. If I can carry it to the till, I can carry it to the car.
  22. If you have a tablet (phone version also available) it is worth purchasing the app iMuscle 2 from Apple or Android app stores. It gives you a great breakdown of the anatomy of the body and shows you exercises and stretches for all muscles in the body. https://3d4medical.com/apps/imuscle-2
  23. Shop at Checkers. Woolworths stores are cold.
  24. I have a bottle of the Squirt ebike wax lube in the box. Works really well and I used it throughout our wet summer recently. It outlasted the BAT wax lube by about one ride which isn't a lot but it is comparing wax to wax. Would be interesting to compare against the regular version. It was what the LBS had a the time and I didn't buy into the "ebike specific" marketing hype.
