  1. NB: take note of thread direction. You can use a pipe over the allen / hex key to improve mechanical advantage.
  2. BB30 should not be an issue for you if installed and maintained correctly. Some may also argue that the longevity of the bearings is not great due to the decrease in size when compared to other bb standards.
  3. I get good life and have had minimal punctures using gp5000 tl, running as tubeless.
  4. The only time I think a PM becomes useful in a race is when you in the break away ! Its not going to stop you getting dropped or help you into the selection.
  5. Probably just cheaper to buy your own these days. Lots of options available depending on your requirements.
  6. Carbon or Alu & budget ?
  7. You need a thread pitch gauge to confirm. They are not that expensive. I would think its most likely a 1.5 or smaller. You could also get anthor axle or m12 bolt with a known pitch and compare the threads.
  8. Are you certain they are plastic. Majority of those types of spacers are metal.
  9. Just replace the clutch mechanism. Easy enough and cheap to do. Had a similar problem with mine due to water ingress and corrosion. Tried to clean and lube but was still not functioning correctly. After installing new clutch everything was back to normal.
  10. FYI the thin wire from brake cable housing also works well.
  11. Nothing different here when compared to current line up of numerous other manufactures aero offerings. Almost a case of same frame different badge with one or two subtle changes and watt savings.
  12. Think wheels manufcturing do generic hanger's perhaps you can look into that.
  13. They used to be free !
  14. Apparently only 219 of 460 teams completed
  15. You can try "Advancedveloimports@cybersmart.co.za" I have been down this road before throw the pedals away and just buy new ones.
  16. It would help if you could include a picture or state specific model of your aero handlebar and stem.
  17. What carbon rim is not made in China these days. Probably only a handful. I think there are better rims for the money if not cheaper. Just requires doing some homework and reading. Sometimes better of buying the rims and doing your own build with the hubs and spokes of your choice. At the end of the day really depends how deep your pockets are.
  18. I printed mounts for Specialized saddles for rear mounted lights they work well and look OEM. The mounting is a common design one just adapts the mount according to the device clip interface.
  19. This passes as a proper install. Nice !
  20. As mentioned before best try get the insurance to pay out, else what is point of insurance in the first place. If you want to sell the damaged frame let me know might be intrested size dependant 😉
  21. See these guys have a Campy version so maybe they can help https://www.olympiccycles.co.za/product/enve-id360-freehub-campagnolo/
  22. You could just epoxy the spacer in place. Use something like ABE Epidermix 372 it will not move after that ! Else you clould just build it up with the 372. If coulour is an issue mix some graphite powder or carbon fibre sawdust with the epoxy.
  23. You know what they say about " assumption " ? myself included !
  24. Yes ! Signed up
  25. I managed to save an old Wahoo sometime ago but this mod required some effort.
