Anyone have a 24 Hole MTB rim to exchange for some beer? Got given a set of SRAM Roam 40 wheels, but the rear rim is completely toast

I'll PM you

As long as wipers and internal surfaces are in good condition, I replace all seals with generic and both upper and lower bushings with IGUS composite bushings. Been servicing them for a couple local bike shops and mates with out of warranty units. The IGUS bushings are great and don't delaminate. Been charging R550

Not in Guateng but drop me a PM if you don't come right or you on a budget

3D print clamps just delaminate and crack the moment any torque is applied. Tried some shifter adapters, didn't even get to go on a ride before they went.

Found a Bryton Rider 330 on my local trail in the South. Let me know where you lost yours and hopefully we get it to its owner

I'm still a fan of the Reverb, but helps that I can service them DIY for next to nothing. Keep up with the service intervals and like most things, will last for ages

Get in touch with Dayle at Lyne, ask him when they getting stock again. They are super helpful, even when I asked about a no name post someone gave me to service, looked a lot like theirs. Turned out their 27.2mm service kit was 100% compatible and walked out with all the parts I needed.

Check the cable tension first, very simple to do, then come back to us

That's post has been used to resurrect another one already. I service Reverbs with IGUS bushings and new seal regularly. Have some odd parts here and there, but not the whole post at the moment

You looking for the whole post or just parts for the Reverb??

Pizza cutter or I'm not taking it!

Chat with a broker, got mine added to my Discovery household and vehicle cover scheme as a standalone item for a specified value. Was quite affordable. Actually got them to tweak the scheme and get a couple discounts applied and walked out paying less even with the bike added.

If you going to try flats, make sure they are decent flat pedals, not the stock bear traps that came with a bike, a decent pair of dedicated flat shoes would be ideal, but some skate shoes will get you going initially, but will wear out fast. If you transitioning for clipless, you will hate flats for the first couple rides, your feet will come off, but keep at it for a good 10 rides before you give up. I went flats to try improve my technique years ago and just never went back. Things like jumping and riding rock lines, you learn to use your suspension instead of just pulling up with your cleats. Efficiency wise, you will loose minimal performance, especially if you are not a podium winner. I've done Wine2Whales on flats no issues. Specialized 2Fo shoes are great and locally available, 5.10's are brilliant if you can find them and stick like s*@t to a decent set of pedals. Don't waste your time with clipless pedals converted to flats, they will be a compromise and you will not get the performance you want.

Saved a couple cans of Q20 like this

If you want to sell something at a profit, don't try sell a Totem. They are serious budget bikes to start with and there is a reason we call them Makro bike That hanger in the pic doesn't have a thread on it to attach the derailleur, so won't work

Yip, send photos, factory said it was rider fault

Replaced my rims a while back with Rapide 30mm ID rims, the front is holding up ok still but the rear lasted 2 months before being completed destroyed, rim bead folded in on itself with no major evidence of a big hit, so tossed it and replaced with a Spank. School fees paid.

Know how everyone likes their ACME cups, heads up at Whitehouse they running a special on their own label cups, turn them over... ACME stamped on the bottom. R50 each and 6 for R250

Go for the Teng Tool unit. I've got one in my toolbox. Great quality, comes with calibration certificate. The importers are based in Ndabeni and own an engineering works. Good support and will organise calibration etc too

Looking for 11 speed Shimano derailleur cages, medium and long cage for M7000/M8000 series. Any range Deore etc as long as it fits

Looks like the same part Lyne uses on their 27.2mm post, looking at the top picture. (Bottom ref pics is a Reverb)

Anyone have a Jeffsy Derailleur hanger?

Also got some Nukeproof Neutrons I've been running for years across multiple bikes, they grip like crazy and just don't die. Pity they don't make the aluminium Neurons any more, but if you can get your hands on a set, don't hesitate.

If you are swapping from Shimano levers and Calipers to a SRAM system, then you need to changes hoses with the levers and calipers. Shimano uses Mineral oil and SRAM uses Dot fluid (Just to confuse things, SRAM has now also released a range that uses Mineral oil)
