  1. phnd around and cant find a bike shop that sell the kit.... D@mmit!
  2. How long does a bleed take and if my lbs does it how much will it cost
  3. well don't want to really replace just top up... New bike but the back brakes are really weak, and the brake only "takes" after the lever has been pulled about half way
  4. whats the price of these and estimated time to do it
  5. How easy or difficult is it to replace the fluid? Is it something I can do or should I rather wait and let my lbs do it?
  6. cool... This is what I do now. But use 2 straps
  7. Funny thing is most people who are very opinionated online are not so face to face...
  8. A garmin forerunner 405... Brilliant decice and goea for between 2700 to 3000...
  9. Need some advice on best way to secure a MTB on the back of a bakkie/pick up with ouit damage to the frame etc? When I go to trails its easy to pop my MTB on the back of my bakkie/pick up... I have those flat "ropes " you use to secure things on the back with the levers that you crack to tighten and work well..any advice?
  10. why... What happened?
  11. To the guys going down Sandton drive at around 6 in the morning, there are a few guys in your pack I notice that constantly use up 2 lanes....Really? you can’t just stay in one lane? Every morning I watch and wonder what if some car doesn’t change lanes fast enough, who are these roadies going to blame? I am new to cycling but from what I understand the unwritten rule is stay on left hand side and try keep as close to the side walk as possible with out it being dangerous?
  12. Guys think same rules apply for mtb?
  13. all decent awnsers.
  14. Do you shave your legs? If you do.. Why? Better speed? Habbit? Incase of injury?
  15. As a previous owner of a cs300 i can assure you that that data transfer using a mic is a nightmare and almost never works. I eventually just got a garmin. The flow link pod works on other polars such as ft range etc.. But not on cs300
  16. Just found this: Please note that the DT Swiss M210 rear shock does not offer a traction mode, but only lock-out and full-mode. from http://www.scott-sports.com/download/10bike/Y_Twinloc/2010_manual_y_twinloc_gb.pdf so that leaves me with the following Q.. On lock-out how do I stiffen the back suspension? and then on full-mode i still have decent leverage ?
  17. have this shock on my spark 50 and seems there is no full lockout? . Initially thought there is The 3 modes on the lever and suspension - Full Travel Mode: full travel rear, full travel front - Traction Mode: traction mode rear, full travel front - Lock-out Mode : lock-out rear, lock-out front but on my spark 50 I can only ajust the lever in two positions? botyh of which still alows back suspension some leverage ?
  18. Which settings do you get for the spark50 back shock ( DT Swiss M210) ? have this shock on my spark 50 and seems there is no full lockout? . Initially thought there is The 3 modes on the lever and suspension - Full Travel Mode: full travel rear, full travel front - Traction Mode: traction mode rear, full travel front - Lock-out Mode : lock-out rear, lock-out front but on my spark 50 I can only ajust the lever in two positions? both of which still alows back suspension some leverage ?

  22. Need some advice on the above.. It's a new bike but the back brakes are too tight, when I roll the back wheel it comes to a stop almost immediate . Is there a screw to adjust or alt do the need to be bled and if so, how ?
  23. Shot guys... Went to libden and got a bomb tool, 2 bombs, plugs and plug tool
  24. Got the scott spark 50 yesterday. Added tubeless... Awesome bike!
