  1. Shot thanks. I also paid R4999 for my 4300 new back in 2011/12 at that price I guess I would rather keep it as a bike to play with the kids
  2. Hi Guys not sure if I should post this here on in the buyers guide Just want to find out what this bike is worth Trek 4300 frame Mechanical disk brakes (Avid Levers and Shimano Calipers) Single Speed (Praxis works 32T Narrow wide and 18 at the back with DMR works tensioner) Rock Shock Lyrik 160mm solo air 26" wheels Specialized seat (small tear at the back) Easton Handlebar and stem I know the fork is not meant to fit that frame I just used it to cycle with my kids
  3. Thanks bud. Taking it very slow for now 10km 3times a week on the trainer and trying to add a little bit every time
  4. If anyone is looking for an entry you can send me a PM. I can unfortunately not make it. Covid has screwed me and can barely make 10km now so not going to torture myself
  5. reviving an old thread here. Dartmoor has not seen a lot of love recently? considering a DARTMOOR HORNET 27.5" from trailtech, it is a good frame I assume?
  6. Looking for an old 26" wheel with 20mm TA or just a 20mm TA hub Willing to pay
  7. I have done a couple of rides with the Oval and I must say it is really great. It takes about a ride or 2 to get use to but after that its brilliant. on the down strokes I can feel its a 36T but on the over/under stroke it almost feels like you are spinning, if that makes sense.
  8. Hi guys So this weekend my dropper decided to stop working I have watched alot of youtube videos on how to resolve this but none of the tricks seem to work on the morewood if I unscrew the bottom the shaft that comes out of the air chamber still works, so I think it is either one of the keys or just a huge amount of dirt in it, but my problem is I cannot seem to open it, so I am turning to the hub experts for advice This is the dropper Normaly there is a screw here that you can take out, but as you can see nothing on the mamba there is also nothing at the bottom to loosen like with the bontrager droppers So any advice on how to get inside to clean and inspect would be greatly appreciated
  9. I have a 44T if you want. not much bigger but its something
  10. Psychological barrier and its sort of become a hobby Are you Johan btw? use to be Sir Maxxis?
  11. I have been vaping for almost 6years now Feel alot better than I did when smoking when cycling and during the day I need to kick that habit but it almost feels more difficult than quiting smoking
  12. New handlebars and stem. Really impressed with the quality of the Lyne products
  13. Being stuck in lockdown I did that a few times on Zwift, how does the real deal compare, that is if you have zwift to compare
  14. My gat juk vir een. But on the other hand I want to wait and see if the GT Zaskar LT are going to be available locally. I do agree that the Revelation is a really nice fork
  15. On the topic of the Slade Is it worth going for the Slade Comp and upgrading components as you go along and finances allow it, or is the SR Suntour XCM34 Boost LO just horse sh$$ and a waste of time?
  16. the want/need factor is at such a high level for this
  17. Anyone know if the new Zaskar LT would be coming to SA?
  18. It uses the Giro on your phone if I understand correctly, that is why you have to have your phone on your handlebar with the companion app running
  19. silly question but how do you steer. The level block I have doesnt move freely, do you just go without it or have some other method?
  20. I have a question for all the smart people out there. So I know you cant really compare your virtual ride times to actual cycling times, but it sure does give a good workout I really want to try and do the 94.7 in a sub 4 this year, any Idea on what I should focus on during my lockdown IDT sessions?
  21. jeez this was rough. I was bleeding from the eyeballs after the radio tower climb
  22. Im gonna try it. need the elevation for my personal challenge. Ill do beers when I am done, If I have any strength to lift the bottle afterwards
