  1. Torque wrench and lock-tite..dont use red lock-tite as you will possibly need to apply heat to get the bolts loose. Use only blue.
  2. escapee...wanna be my friend, I am trying to get ahead of Rouxtjie..and besides this is really helping my post count..
  3. Like Rouxtjie said....don't hate the player...hate the game.. NEW RULES...If Rouxtjie has added you as a friend then the 1000 post requirement falls away...
  4. HAHAHA nice one, no I'am not. but you might want to check with some of your family members...they might be.
  5. But I thought we are friends....
  6. Wow, so this is how one goes to work to increase your posts...easy...ChUkKy, will you please be my friend as well..I promise never to pretend to collect anything from your house and then rob or hijack you...you have thousands of hubbers as your witness..
  7. WHOOOOOHOOOO...you now have 4 friends rouxtjie...keep going...we are now friends, so phone me if you are scared when a buyer is on his way to your house..I will come over and protect a friend..
  8. Jip...Got to Love it....hahahahaha..Well said.
  9. O, and if I can assist anyone on this site, whether they have just joined to get help or they have a 100 000 posts..I will help them if I can as I am not better than anyone..Have a lovely day.
  10. First of all..I don't need you to judge my character, rather judge your own character..2nd of all, I don't need your help..there are thousands of other people on the hub that don't have a sh&t attitude that are willing to help..and if you want to compare statistics lets do so..you have managed to ad a massive 3 friends on the hub since 2009..that says a lot about your true character to me..further to the above, you only have 4 positive ratings in 5 years...that really tells me all I need to know about your character.. Then lets compare amount of posts vs amount of likes..I have 25 posts and 16 likes..You have 14487 posts vs 7143 likes...now lets think about that for a second..also think about the people that have jobs where they travel most of the day, or they are not as fortunate as you to be able to be online most of the day..like some other people..Get real..
  11. Rouxtjie, I can easily reach a 1000 or maybe even 14000 posts if I also use the hub as a chat site..
  12. Unless its a set of wheels like mavic crossmax that use expensive spokes.
  13. I cannot see the spoke costing more than R20..and then to true the wheel. Normally around R100 to R150 i think. Not a very expensive fix.
  14. Hi, no you should not ride it as it can damage the wheel. Yes it can be repaired. New spoke and they true the wheel and its as good as new.
  15. I would not have that repaired. Like Furbz says, high amount of stress placed on rims. Spokes need to be tightened and then all the road stresses of cornering etc. The risk is just too big.
  16. Keep in mind that bike shops need to get rid of 2014 stock..so they would like to sell these out first, otherwise they have to mark them down to try and sell them. I recently bought a 2013 Anthem x3 29er for R17850 brand new. Stunning bike, very happy with it.
  17. I have a spare pink basket for the front and some streamers for the handlebars...
  18. I bought it from big red barn..went for a ride there and saw it on the counter..thought to myself that I have spent so much on sealant and nothing worked, whats a R120..put it in and went for a ride..after my second ride the wheels sealed perfectly. And this stuff will not dry up like stans..
  19. Get rid of stans..try ps2 tyre fluid..nothing could seal my continental x king tyres..struggled for around 2 weeks until i found this stuff..and at only R120 for 500ml..absolutely fantastic. If it can seal a conti it can seal anything.
  20. I recently went over from a HT to a DS and thats the best thing I could ever do..love it..but yes you now have 2 suspensions that need to be serviced..and you have all the suspension linkages etc..but totally worth it.
  21. Open a case and insist on the person being arrested. As far as I know it is against the law to leave the scene of an accident unless you are being taken to hospital. You have to remain at the scene of the accident if you were involved.
  22. Check and make sure that your wheel is in straight, centre of your wheel should be in the centre of your brake caliper...on a road bike. Good quality bike should be aligned almost perfect.
  23. In that case follow sepia's instruction. Good luck.
  24. The rabbit knob at the bottom is your rebound..it adjusts the fork to either come up slower or faster.
  25. A good starting point as far as i know is to match it with your weight. If you weigh 80kg then Inflate to 80psi. Thats for the front. I have a fox ctd rear shock, in lock or climb mode activated you softly climb onto the bike and sit down. The rear shock should not move more than 20% of total travel.
