Haha ja ja ... I'm sure there was a 'fault in the metal at manufacture' 😜

Not as successful as I had hoped .... 'top dead centre' is a tad off, apparently my 'spec' was not detailed enough. I guess it's really only a cosmetic matter if running a round blade but will really mess with the timing of an oblong one? Anyway I'll fit it to my hardtail that I only ever ride occasionally and just happens to have a round blade I'll post a pic of it fitted just now

No, but I do know duct tape didn't work ....

I was reminded this morning of that time my crank broke in half many years ago, went and found a photo ... it was not welded!

Apparently it's ready, gonna collect this AM ....

That time of the year when the shrubs and kakiebos are high and encroaching on the single track on the Highveld .... the flippin blackjacks 🙄

If I remember correctly some can and others can't?

I'll consider myself suitably chastised and move right along ... sorry

Just another one of those things I get flack for but anyway almost all the riders I come across eat and drink way too much on training rides ... and fancy stuff nogal! Skud maar net my kop ... But I guess now that the fancy gopro harness looking picnic packs are cool again one must fill it with the appropriate fancy jungle juice and Tarzan bars?

Just remembered I still have Golden Cheetah installed on my old notebook, I'll give that a go just now ...

Anyone using a trainer with standalone/virtual software that is not online ... would still like to be able to upload the ride to Strava etc Preferably Windows based but Android would also work

Much appreciated DnD!

'At the sag point' so not all the air?

What would be the easiest way to do that? Does it mean sitting on the bike while someone else checks that or is there an easier way ...

Since I have noticed that this topic comes up quite often and there are certainly very knowledgeable guys on the hub ... how about giving some guidelines regarding initial install and setup tips in just one thread? Step by step with pics for us in the back por favor 😉 For example things I wonder about ... b-screw at installation, chain length, correct use of the 'red tool' General thoughts about chain line and how to check it

No idea but I do recall quite a few empty tents all those years ago, luckily because I grabbed an extra 2 mattresses and had a 'slightly' more comfortable nights rest 😎

No expert but its not only about fitness in my humble opinion ... A certain amount of 'vasbyt' is required and that's probably a bigger problem than outright leg fitness, maar nou ja wat weet ek 🤪

Touché mate!

Even for clowns there's a line not to cross 🤡

I spent some time in the Circus in my youth 😎🤪

As @MORNE says I'm not a 'tinkerer' so best to just ignore my comments ...

Look I'm an old timer and a bit set in my ways ... adding gears to a single speed is like when people put suspension forks, suspension seatposts and stuff on gravel bikes or other rigid bikes, it's just wrong. Bloody Philistines 🤪 Rather get a geared, suspended mountain bike and be done with it. BUT having said that one of those internal geared hubs would make a supercool bike so hope you can find one!

Perfect autumn morning on the Highveld, nice to have the right tool for the job today 😎 It would appear that road will soon be tarred so maybe we shouldn't moan to much ....

I don't need a valuation just want to know what the document would look like?

Would be used for that amongst other things ...
