Hello folks, I have some silver FSA Gossamer cranks but the crank arms are somewhat marked. I want to polish them up, whats the best polish/paste to use? Can I do it with just a cloth or is a buffing wheel on a drill/grinder needed?

Just wondering ....... have oftened heard of guys say buying new cluster, chainrings and 2 chains then alternating between the chains every so many kilometers and that helps extend the life of all sorts ..... Now what happens if you have a new chain and chainrings and use 2 sets of wheels starting with a new cassette on each? The wheels are sort of rotated by training on one set and racing on the others. Getting myself confused but just wondering what problems you could see and if it does extend the life of anything in the drivetrain or in fact might shorten it?

It's a slippery slope this JB ........

I guess as long as you let it 'drip' on it's OK then ....

Eh Bob I haven't seen any gays riding 2X9's

Must be some merit in them I guess? http://www.bikeradar.com/news/article/christoph-sauser-and-specialized-team-to-use-rotor-q-rings-20888

and on my bike!!!!!!!!!!! The risk of damage to your bike whilst Punt was riding it was probably far less than if you or I were on it sir

Frikkinheck gangsta, groceries for a month (when you were alone that is ....)

More than a mouthful is a ...........

Yoh! I don't ride with a chainring protector

OK Nance that is appropriate use of said word!

Spoke to Vodacom and apparently it is not yet available locally ...... I am waiting patiently!

Ah' date=' was looking for that. [/quote'] Anytime Scotty-san! Many struggle with this issue ........

the answer is 42

Thats like saying brussel sprouts or ice cream Take the Specialized son!

Mux you should drink after you ride not before son ....... then balance is not a problem!

Yes you are. Who is to say that anyone and all who were at the meeting' date=' agreed with what was discussed. Who is to say that EVERY bike shop owner walked away from that meeting and implemented an increase. Assumption is the mother of all cock ups I dare say.[/quote'] Thanks for the chat Boris - all clear now

Benoni world champs perhaps ...........

So today due to various circumstances I happen to pass FPC in Irene and needed a BB removed from a frame that we have sold. Walk in , Charl (I think that's correct!) at the counter immediately looks over and asks how I'm doing and what can he do for me. Can you remove this BB? I'll collect later ...... hey man go down stairs talk to the workshop guys I'm sure they'll help you. Go down immediate assistance and then I ask how much I owe ....... nothing dude it's cool! Now I have probably been in there about 5 times in the 2 years that I have worked in Centurion so it's not like I am some 'homey' of theirs, in fact they don't even know my name! The point of this? The generalisation of all RSA bike shops give crap service or FPC know nothing about service and are just money grabbing pratts may not be a true reflection of the local LBS's. Having said that I still agree that collusion/price fixing is not on and if it is proven I will be as mad as the next guy. Lucky I do know that my regular LBS was not there but I'm not sure if the prices he is being charged (therefore passed on to me!) have not been influenced by what may or may not have been decided there! ....... then again maybe I'm just rambling on needlessly who knows

How far Souf you wanna go?

You could use a 20" MTB tube .........
