  1. Thanks all for the input.
  2. I don’t think this model does https://thulestore.co.za/thule-xpress-2-bike-carrier-970003
  3. Hello I have been using my Thule 2 bike two bar rack for some time now and have always wondered if it is legal, because it partially obstructs by rear number plate. I've never been stopped in Cape Town, but since relocating to Gauteng I’m concerned that I may be stopped. Even if I add an additional unobstructed rear plate, I wouldn’t know where to place it. Any advice? Tks
  4. Nice, and these have 10 pins 👍
  5. Thanks peeps, based on feedback I think I'll go Nukeproof.
  6. These have great reviewes and they're currently less 58% but metal damage is unforgiving 🤔
  7. Very informative thanks
  8. Top draw stuff 👌
  9. Awesome they sound good, please can you post a link to it?
  10. Hi All, i have a pair of Giant flat resin pedals but am looking for a larger set with more grip /pins. Please could you recommend a good set of pedals?

  11. Assembly done. I’m happy with the look the hard black anodised frame.
  12. Thanks for the guidance. I arrived there just after 8am this morning and the bike was done. I haven’t completely unwrapped it but from the bits I’ve unwrapped and rewrapped I think it came out well. Joey’s guy, Clement, might have done some preparation before anodising. Keeping it wrapped as I’m taking it away tomorrow to have new frame pivot bearings fitted and reassembled. Posting pics on Friday once it’s complete.
  13. 😳 I imagined that the finish would be the same as the sample of the final product which they had shown me. Which looked great, I was there twice and there was no mention of this, Is the hard black anodising more forgiving or do you recon I should pick it up and give it a consistent finish?
  14. Thanks for responsing. I've read a few threads on the forum which indicate that steel rivnuts can mess up the anodising, although I don't really know how but my worry is that the colour of the AL frame will be affected. Update: Ended up going to their workshop today, decided to go for the recommended 'hard anodised black' instead. I think in terms of long term durability it's the better option.
  15. This inspired me to do the same. I stripped my specialized camber fsr frame and dropped it off at Cape Anodising today, although they appear to be very disorganised, I'm hoping for the same result. I asked for the main frame to be purple, as in your pics, and for the suspension arms and smaller parts to be blue. I'll post pics once done, but wanted to ask if you removed your bottle cage rivnuts before sending it away?
