Cool so XT for now it is. I was thinking if and when I change them I might try Hope stoppers.....?

Hi guys, I'm buying a new bike and selling my current one, the new bike (second hand New) has sram level Tl brakes, I was thinking of swapping them with my XT brakes before I sell my old bike, is it worth it or are the Srams good brakes? I used to have sram xx carbon brakes and they were noisy and horrible. Also I'm quite a big guy and I like the stopping power on the XTs. Thoughts? Cheers

Thank you Vetseun!!!

Guys my day started so badly, and I'm smiling at the end of it, you've restored my faith in humanity and it goes to show how lekka most cyclists are! Proud to be a cyclist.

Thanks mate, when the edge 500 packs up i will. in the meantime i'm going to use the crap out of it!!!

Thank you so much for your kind offer. I can't really afford it at the moment but will definately give you business in the future. Kind regards.

I Have no words, I feel better about humanity now. I have PMd you. thank you Sir.

Thanks guys. My fault for not catching on sooner. The old Cateye will have to do until I save up for another Garmin

same add, was also R1850, plus i Paid R99 for postage. I paid ABSA cash send. I'm such an idiot

I recently paid for a Garmin Edge 520 on Gumtree. The man who sold it's name was Hannis Hatting , he never posted it and won't take my calls or respond to messages. All I have is his cell number. It seemed legit at the time but now I'm feeling like a prize dumbass. Please be carefull and lookout for this bastard. His number is : 072 919 7596

sorry mate, I bought my light about a month ago, I just went onto takealot and its not showing anymore.

I was recently in the market for a budget front light for my MTB. I stumbled across the Surge Firefly 1200 online. It arrived promptly from Takealot. And at R550 for a rechargeable light it certainly met the (budget) criteria. Given the price and manufactured origin of the light I wasn't expecting much. However I must say it had surprised me and turned out to be quite a Lekka little light. The beam on bright is in fact very bright! It does have a slightly hot spot in the middle of the beam but it does still cast enough light around the edges that I can easily see a low branch or obstruction to the side. On maximum brightness it seems to last about four hours, this is not as much as they claim but that's normal manufacturer optimism I reckon. Overall I'm very happy with it so far. And hell, for the price you can't really go wrong. Cheers

Thanks guys! I'm going to look out for one!

Lefty pros and cons? Always used rock shox and fox but thinking about trying a lefty. Price? Performance? Maintainence ? strength? Tx
