  1. Apple has the ability to automatically switch on “do not disturb” when it connects to your car’s bluetooth. I have mine enabled. No text is so important that it can’t wait until I reach my destination. Calls come through the radio.
  2. Definitely wont buy the new ones then. I have a pair of the green in your first photo and they are perfect. Any shorter and it will be a pain.
  3. What year was that! And how much was that trolley in total? R600?
  4. Advice so good you repeated it for dramatic effect 😂😂
  5. I once bought a BMW with 40k on the clock…. R110k in repairs within 11 months of ownership. I could only blame myself for taking the risk on brand that isn’t known for the best reliability.
  6. Take the refund and move on with your life dude. No need to harp on about a deal that went south and where the seller is willing to refund.
  7. Will depend on the size of the total order. Will work it out when there is more items added.
  8. Directly from them.
  9. Thank you. Hope they have black.
  10. 50 would be great to have as spares for maintenance.
  11. Where can I order black end caps for cables? https://www.paragontech.co.za/product/quaxar-inner-end-cap-shiftbrake-black-500pcs-acc9065-500/
  12. Had shoddy quality in the past and warranty claim was honored. Where did you buy it?
  13. Would anyone be interested in a group buy from PNW Components. I'm looking at a couple of things from them and it would be great to split shipping costs.
  14. RBC is extremely good at what they do. Highly recommended by the suspension experts to carry out the complex work like this. Last resort I guess.
  15. Shot in the dark. Anyone have a 12spd XT M8100 cage available? 😂 Donor needed to repair my XTR
  16. Not to mention that seam that runs right across your taint and grinds you raw after a couple of hours in the saddle.
  17. I go out for a ride, not a surf.
  18. I'm sure this is just a random occurrence but it left a very bad taste in my mouth. My previous 9spd XTR mech was 10 years old and went through hell. Not a single missed shift.
  19. Agree 100%. My frame is orange and everything else is blacked out except for the chain (gooooooold) and I want to keep it that way. I carefully picked components with minimal or no visible branding. I'm in my 40s, not 14.
  20. Always had great service from them. I buy all my Core Merino clothing from them. Have you tried calling?
  21. Mixed reviews. Good shop but one of the salesman once told my fiance to go to Mr Price and buy boardshorts instead of MTB baggies.
  22. Very much out of the blue. Not a scratch anywhere on the derailleur. Dare I say the CSixx cage is too bling? So much branding.
  23. No warranty from Sheeepmano. R1600 to replace the cage. Hectic considering a whole new XT derailleur is only R2400. Guess I'll try the epoxy route. The XT is great and all but I miss the preciseness of the XTR. It could very well be all in my head but jeepers did I struggle with shifting in the wet and muddy conditions encountered over the past weekend. First up though will be fresh cables. *GX AXS is starting to look mighty good at this point.
  24. Same experience with that hard ridge. On the IDT it actually caused a painful saddle sore for me. I also find that the cut around the jibleys is odd. Sometimes the marbles will climb over each other causing some discomfort while pedaling.
  25. Little do they know that the latest Anthill Films edit they watched had the berm filled with loose dirt to get that roast just perfect for the camera. Eeeedjits
