If he hadn't tried to leave the scene of the accident the second cyclist may very well have survived. Imagine the fear and pain that comes from being dragged under a vehicle for 500m. It's brutal, I hope he gets the maximum sentence

Thanks for all the help hubbers, and to Ernst and TheoG for offering to sell me theirs but I've managed to fix my old axle with the help of my LBS and some locktite

Ernst, thank you very much for your generous offer. I'm going to hold back for a while until I'm sure that it will work rather than waste R200 on unnecessary courier fees. If another buyer comes along before then feel free to sell to them

The decals on the fork say that it's a fox float 32. What is a tune id? The hub on the wheel is a Hope Evo Pro 2 if that makes any difference

I'd say the length is closer to 15.5cm. 10mm longer than mine. Not sure it's going to work ????‍♀️. Diameter looks spot on though

100%, could you just measure it's length and diameter for me? Hoping the threads match cos they're both Fox forks

Sounds very reasonable, just to confirm I pay 50% deposit and you'll send it to me (courier at my cost). If it works I pay the balance, if it doesn't I send it back (courier at my cost) and you refund my deposit?

Will this work? https://bikehub.co.za/classifieds/item/wheel-spares-and-axles/494389/shimano-fox-thru-axle-quick-release

Evening all, I want to find a 2nd hand through axle in the classifieds to replace the one in the photos but I'm scared of buying the wrong size (complete cycling noob). Can someone point me in the right direction and also let me know what to look out for/ask the seller about? Chances are I'll have to buy it remotely.

Here's a photo of the mk2 Soul I bought myself for my birthday this year. This bike is just so much fun to ride

Picked my new bike up this morning ????. Took about a week from to get from KZN to WC. Total cost R364

Good to know, if it was a more expensive bike I would have enquired about insurance but it's sub 10k so I'll risk it. The seller has boxed it up nicely for me

So the waiting continues, called them this afternoon to check why they hadn't collected yet and they let me know that the drivers were too busy to pick up. Hopefully it gets to me before the end of the week

Courier guy has been arranged, unfortunately they will only be able to collect on Monday so hopefully I receive my new bike on Thursday next week. Tick tock tick tock

Hells bells, you guys are fast. Thanks for the advice

I'm buying a bike that I found in the classifieds ????????????. Only problem is the bike is in KZN and I'm in the Western Cape. Can anyone recommend a good courier? What should I expect to pay?
