  1. I have them on both my bikes and no issues!
  2. I am in mining and even though land gets disturbed, it is possible to rehab the areas with great success. People are quick to show fingers at coal mining companies for disturbing nature, but when Eskom goes down because of a lack of coal, its a different picture. It basically comes down to responsible mining and most big mining companies have a very good rehab & community program in place. And development programmes (ex The Exxaro MTB academy).
  3. Where do you get Assos pants for meduim value for money?
  4. SAve the cash till you can buy a whole new bike. It works out much cheaper!
  5. Thx! I tried a search and got things about backing plates and direct mount etc etc - so getting confused!
  6. I have a 2010 Epic Comp carbon with a SLX (E-type) front derailer, which I would like to replace with a SRAM one - is there one that will work or do I have to stick to Shimano? Tx!
  7. Ok, cool - thx guys. So I guess the next question is: SHOULD I sell it? I just bought a Specialized Epic, and dont know if I want to keep both? (epic is lower spec'd: X7/X9) When do I ride which?
  8. I am considering selling my bike, whats a reasonable price? Tx 2011 Silverback Surplus 1 (carbon) with full XTR (including wheels, WTB tubeless tyres)
  9. Ok, thanks. Ill take a pic and post it here as well...
  10. Does anyone know where I can buy/order a Kuota rear hanger. I contacted them directly but no response yet. I also don't think they have a agent in SA... Thx
  11. I replaced the pads and switched to my others wheels, and it seems to be a lot better. Will see if I put the originals on what happens!
  12. I have also wondered about this... I freeze my Hammer, and it still feels as if it works

    Bike rack

    I recently bought a Epic, so now it doesn't fit on my bike rack (Thule towbar clip on one). I was looking at the Euroway, but came across this: http://www.rhinorack.co.za/AccSubCategory_Rear-Mounted-Bike-Carriers_Page_1_Accessory_3-Bike-Tilting-Platform_406_11.aspx Any comments?
  16. The new site killed it! (a lot faster though - awesome! )
  17. Awesum, will loosen the wheel and retighten it... Hopefully that solves it!
  18. They aren't new, and there wasnt any changes. Just one day stopped working 100%. I will try and clean the rotor (or try another rotor) and see if that helps...
  19. Thanks, I will give it a go. Someone suggested that they will have to remove the BB and replacve it...
  20. I used my time trial bike on the indoor trainer, and from then it developed a creek (sounds like its the carbon on the bottom tube, near the BB). What causes this and how can I remove it?
  21. Hi guys, My front brake doesnt "bite" when I brake... It only slows down gradually. It also squeals when braking. I had a quick look at the pads and they seem fine. What can it be? Tx
