  1. Check this out http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Models.aspx?ModelID=20792 R4000-00 for the pair. Now thats a good price!
  2. 5 grand? Thats a good price! What do they weigh?
  3. Ok Thanx, ek salit 'n try gee. Enige anner raad?
  4. Dis die beste uitvindsel nog. Ek ry daarmee op my mtb en het geen probleme. Dis ook baie gerieflik as jy gou die ketting wil afhaal vir skoonmaak of Whatever. Ek ry ook een saam, vir as ek miekien 'n ketting breek.
  5. Ag sory man, nie die "deadset" bearings nie. ma dit s? seke hoe ek al voel daaroor.
  6. How much did you tighten it? Like very tight. I replaced the pedals, serviced the deadset bearing. It's definately the wheels. When I put other wheels on it stops.
  7. Ek sal bietjie daarna kyk. Dink jy dit kan miskien 'n issue met die freewheel wees? Moet ek die wiel bearings vervang?
  8. There's this clicking sound on my Easton Circuit wheels, that I can't seem to sort out. if the bike is not ridden, say I do a week mtb, it stops, but reapears after a day or two The sound is the loudest when I climb. I already replaced the the freewheel bearings. the wheel bearings seem fine. Any advice?
  9. Hulle het respek vir niemand nie man. Ek is so ge?riteerd met hulle, as ek by 'n race kom en ek sien hulle is daar sak my moed in my skoene. Vandag se race was 'n baie flat roete, gewoonlik hou hulle nie so lank by nie. Maar soos ek s? hulle is so geleer...
  10. Ek is seker ons was by dieselle race. man daai ouens ry baie negatief. Ek dink dit het nogal baie te doen met die manier waarop hulle gecoach is. Hierdie is definitief nie die eerste keer dat hulle so ry nie, hulle ry in elke race so. Ek weet my vriend het met die commisaire gaan praat maar sy kan niks doen nie. Ek dink ons moet eerder met hylle coach praat...
  11. Thanx Mampara, I got it.
  12. I want to buy a new stem for my MTB. I have to measure the old one to get the same lengt. But how do you do it. Ia mean from where to where do you measure it?
  13. calculated on 110% of the invoice amount pluss a R25.00 customs fee Wat beteken dit? 110% vat? Didn't do very good in maths at high school...
  14. I can remeber that there was a topic like this a while back, can't seem to find it. But me and my cycling buddy wants to buy some stuff from chainreaction. Can anybody tell me if you have to pay import taxes, and how much? And vat?

    Paule, my raad aan jou sal wees om eerder aan die begin 'n bietjie beter fiets te koop. Ek het net soos jy begin en 'n "budget" fiets gekoop, binne 3 maande was ek verveeld met die fiets en moes ek opgradeer. Ek dink dis goeie raad om te kyk na 'n 2de handse fiets, jy kan vir onder R5000 'n serious fiets koop. Gaan kyk ook 'n bietjie op bikebay, hulle het nogal 'n paar nice bikes.

    Sidewall cut

    Sidewall cut

    How do you get the patch to sit on the inside, remember it's tubeless...
  18. Ok, guys I have a pretty nasty sidewall cut that I picked up on the race in Dullstroom. It lasted well till our 4 hour ride this morning when it went flat twice. I just pumped it up to 4 bar and the sealant spurted out until it looked like it stopped and was sealed. The tyre is a Maxxis Larsen non UST. Should I replace the tyre. Have any of you had luck with patches on the inside?
  19. For the life of me I can't understand why somebode will dish out R600 for a conversion kit, that essentially the same thing.
  20. Check out this site: http://nationalmountainbike.com:80/board/showthread.php?t=4143 But what worked even better as I said previously is using duct tape. Been riding like this for a while and works like a charm. Cycle House in Pretoria North does these conversions.
  21. great man, Thanx alot, this is exactly what I needed...
  22. No way, the new Rock shocks pump won't fit...
  23. Hi there, I so hope one of the hubbers can help me. I have a previous generation Rock Shox Sid air front shock. I need a shock pump. They apparently don't sell it any more. The valve on the shock looks like "inverted" presta valve. Can anyone help me?
