I'd say irrespective of what started it there was no need for every cyclist to have a go at the driver taking turns hitting him and being violent damaging the vehicle....complete muppets

I'm amazed at how many ads i see on gumtree where the front forks are set up the wrong way, as per attached example recently seen. Come on?! But then again its always on these scary budget bikes so i guess they don't know better as aren't avid riders.....still amazes me. I always reply to their ads telling them their forks are the wrong way hahaha muppets

This post obviously wasn't worthy of a response from 'Admin'

So many times advertisers have to be asked what size their bike/frame is. Can we not have a step where you have to select it in order to continue with post? See attached pic. Could this also be used to help filter ads when searching for bikes as i have to go through heaps on awesome looking bikes only to see they're medium, or small or what ever i'm not looking for???? Would be awesome

They hand build their wheelsets...pretty sick

No No Nomad for me....im not that cheap lol

The other option is a 2nd hand Giant XTC 29er for R9000

So im looking to migrate to the 29er side and being a bit skint will be looking at the entry level rides. Can anyone offer some advise on which of these would be the better deal to go for??? Merida Big Nine TFS 300-D 29er Mongoose Meteore Comp 29R Titan 29R Elite

Im board....i'm knot kidding Teak a bow, and keep 'em coming

Wood it be good for the final splint for the finish line?

Treemendous

Is this for the GT Peace 9r SS you have for sale? Its exactly what i was thinking of doing with it......so it cant be done?

Why don't some of the clowns who advertise their bikes for sale make mention of the frame size?!!! Its common sense. Flip its annoying

Yea it proven pretty fruitless so far trying to source suppliers of 4130 chromoly here in SA I am looking to build a bike too, hopefully more than one and havent had much success yet. I was considering using 304 stainless or even mild steel but not sure how it would turn out, or how strong they would be. Most bikes are from 4130 and have been heat treated etc. I am thinking i am going to build one from 304 ss anyways just to check how it all works out...a prototype. This will get teh ball rolling and allow me to check dimensions and how components fit as well as allow for a jig to be made up. I know Salvo are making their own frames from 4130 in CT and seem pretty good at what they do. I did approach them for help and as k if they would supply me some tubing....it fell on deaf ears and i had no response lol. I did however get a response when i emailed from a different account asking a price on their latest fixie. Go figure.
