  1. Hi Robo, My rear derailller is on its last legs, I am using Tiagra 9 speed Double, was wondering if I can change it to 10 speed?
  2. Hi Guys, What is the difference between 9 and 10 speed road group sets? Regards, Willem
  3. Hi Guys, I installed my new Time RXS First pedals last night, I am really battling to engage the cleats, is this normal for new pedals? Any tips?
  4. Hi guys, I'm a newbie and still like the medals, I know that I will get to stage where I don't want medals. The problem in the cycling community is that the old timers think that what they say or suggest are a representation of the rest of the cycling community. It seems to me that cycling is becoming a sport where a lot of guys get a chance to moan about nonsense, chill out guys and enjoy the sport.
  5. Hi Epic, Speak to your doctor or a specialist, this virus is quite serious, you might have to cancel your IM, the virus can cause permanent heart muscle damage, my doc told me not to exercise until my count decreased to a certain level, 2 months down the line and my count is down to 10.
  6. Hi Sampras, Which Giant frame and Diamondback frames do you have? Regards, Willem
  7. Hi Guys, I have a Trek 6000 (about 2004). A friend gave me a Giant Talon 2010 frame, this frame as far as I can see is only made for Disc brakes. I want to transfer my groupset, crank, bb, etc to the new frame. My components on the Trek is still in a very good condition. I have the following questions: 1. Is it possible to fit v-brakes on the Giant Talon frame? 2. If I cannot use v-brakes on this frame is it worth it to buy disc brakes taking into consideration that my rims on my Trek is still the older version and that I would most probably have to change the hubs on my rims. 3. Would it be a better bet to swop the Giant Talon frame for a frame that can take V-brakes and that are still in a good condition. Guys please take note that I am a roadie and only used my Trek to cycle with my son but would like to start with some shorter distance mtb races. Regards, Willem
