Just do a search on the Hub for Eagle Canyon - they are not renowned for excellent service. As a matter of fact it could well be the opposite...

Benky - he has the experience without too many races in his legs - thanks Covid!!

May I ask why not online? On Monday morning I ordered a Park Tool pump from Takealot and less than 24 hours later I had it my my grubby paws!! Not bad service!!

Thanks - I see it is there - and it works like a dream.

Still down - pretty poor!!

Just an idea - add a search option to your website. It is a real pain having to scroll through items.

Great initiative.

He must keep a low profile...no answers...

A few of us looking at spending a few days on our MTB's drifting south from Pilgrims down to Barberton. Is there anyone out there who could help with directions - and names of who to contact to request permission so we can traverse their land without being shot. GPX routes or any guidance appreciated.

Yep. And you feel fairly grim when it happens? My cardiologist put my onto 2 bananas a week...thats' it. Whilst resting I have arrhythmia from hell, but the more I chase my HR the more stable it becomes - until it goes through the roof. But the bananas provide sufficient potassium to ensure that this no longer happens (I think that was the reason...). Fairly scary when you glance down at your HR monitor and it is sitting at 220 and that is only because the monitor can't go any higher.

In the case of the Shimano chain I have - writing on the outside of the chain.

Double check that your chain is the right way around before you replace half your drive train looking for a creak. It saves time as well as a big dose of humble pie.

Time for a healthy dose of humble pie. I also decided to swop out the chain ring to a newer NW - and in the process noticed that my chain was on the wrong way around. Swopped my chain around and hey presto, creak gone. A very happy ride this morning. Thanks for the help, sorry that at the end of the day it was just a case of stupidity. But I do have a nice BB, NW chain ring and a few other things on that I am not going to swop back, so not all bad news.

Ok, so progress - it is not the seat post (creak remains when standing), nor the headset (creak remains when cycling without touching the bars). BUT, it was noticed that the moment we put pressure on the peddles we seem to get chain suck. Unfortunately this was only noticed this morning, so I will try and swop out my crank when I get home. At the same time I will also strip down my derailleur and check that it is all okay. It is an XT that is still in pretty good nick, but i certainly haven't stripped it to check it. An hour of creaking this morning certainly gives one the desire to fix the damn thing in a hurry!!

Thanks - will check all of the above.
