Sorry YeloooGP' date=' nie my fiets nie. Ek het nie genoeg geld of R6000+ uit te haal net vir die agterste hub nie. Maar dan weer, hoeveel kos 'n hub, derailleurs, en shifters deesdae. Met die een is als ingebou in een.[/quote'] More like 10k+
Would love a Rohloff hub. The other option is a Nuvinci but they are not readily available. Dont think they have anything for a mtb either.
See yourself on a yellow bike Mampara?
You can bet your money that the guy missing a chin wont think of going back and marking the dangerous spot. I put up some signage that I got from Ride magazine but apart from interest while I was busy ( I look good in my tool belt ) not many people stop to read. Granted, the content could be improved but shourly anything should spark that dim little bulb into action. We extremele priveleged to have The Spruit on our doorstep and if we dont self police fellow cyclists this might deteriorate badly. The alternative is a well maintained track that is good enough to keep us city cyclists off the road. There are a number of hubbers trying to get involved with council and although a lengthy process are seeming to be getting there. My efforts came unstuck and ended in me receiving some off record suggestions of things to do under the radar. Not a sustainable solution though. Find some mates and fix areas that looked damaged. Chat to other users and be polite when passing them. Engage selfish cyclists who might not know that their actions are being unsocial
slowbee, dont waste your R300 on that bike shop. Actually tell them for that kind of daylight robbery you will in future take your business elsewhere.
Do what was suggested and fiddle with your tensioning barrels. Then loosen the bolt and try and retighten and reset. DO NOT play around wih your limiting screws. Once you can do these 2 things all you need to master is prepping your cable outer. This is the most important thing in getting your new installation 100%. Oh, and measaure your cable outer to the same length as the current one if you are happy with your routing and it gives you no problems.
R300 to watch and ask questions!? What a joke!
Have a chat to the Thule guys. There is a new rack that I have seen a couple of (not on their website) that doesnt require you to remove your front wheel and clamps around the front wheel itself. No frame stress for your plastic bits.
I think the one above is a better method of mounting your bike but is a serious ball ache. You have to take your wheel off each time and find somewhere to store.
I use the Prorides and to be honest, they are the easiest way of mounting a bike. I think I have done pretty much everything over the years. I have never tried on a carbon frame but never had any issues with an ali one.
Rapid Fire only came in long after the hippy days.
Either will work. Just remember that you would have to change which lever shifts which way if you had to change to Rapid Rise. My advice would be to stick with what you know. High Normal is regular.
Make sure you get a long cage if you are running a standard 3 x 9 setup.
A rapid rise rests on the large sprocket. It is easier for your tension in the gear cable to move it to a smaller sprocket. Spring moves it back up on to the bigger sprocket. This is the same as low normal. Normal position is the low gear/big sprocket.
"Which RD starts/resting position at the small sprocket at the back and moves up the cluster with a push on the thumb...?" HIGH NORMAL
Another nice thing about running RR derailleur with dual control is that both shifters work in the same way. Click up for an easier gear and down for a more difficult gear.
Yes, they both work.
There is however a reason why Rapid Rise is recommended for dual control. The spring moves the chain to a bigger sprocket which makes for an easier gear shift into a lower gear. Pulling a gear brings it onto a smaller sprocket where the ramps are not needed. Not a massive difference but it is there nonetheless.
Handbags at 30 paces Mr Mulebar! I guess you make mayn assumptions - is it a Shimano chain? is it packaged or loose? Can I read instructions? (Sheldon Brown has nice pictures!) Chill out and be happy! I think its Mrs Mulebar using Mr Mulebars identity. There is no way a Mr would ever read any instructions!
The Blue Oyster!
Or you can just ride as much as possible and protect your ass (Assos, Prep, Milking Balm, whatever works for you). Surgical Spirits is just going to dry your ass out and cause cracks. Did I just say that?
