Loose cog

Hi DieselnDust, don't have any ST9001 hoods as I understand they are still available as OEM parts from Shimano. Insist your local bike shop contact Coolheat, the sole local Shimano importer/distributor to order you a pair. Alternatively, give Richie a call on 0839552398. He many not answer immediately but send him a whatsapp.

I have a few models of older STi’s. Send me a DM or WhatsApp 0730693979

I too have only had excellent service from Ikhambi. They replaced an old rflkt that failed. Ah, the RFLKT, remember them? I still have 2 of these which used to repeat ride information from your iPhone. Bought 2 Elemnt Bolt V1's to replace the RFLKT and will need to shortly look to replace the Bolts although they work perfectly.

The Gauteng Vintage and Classic Bicycle Club will be displaying a couple of bikes so do come and say hi. Please contact me should you have a post WWII, 1950's bike you would like to include in the display.

Glad you were able to make use of the frame.

Yours Ben!

I have this Bianchi alu/carbon rear frame available to anyone wanting a restoration project or salvage the head badge, dropouts or rear triangle. It measures 56cm centre to centre but I would say closer to 57cm.

I did not do a factory reset. My Bolt is working perfectly, my wife's too. I did however switch off my bluetooth on my phone after the firmware update for a few seconds before turning it back on again.

My Elemnt Bolt worked perfectly and in fact was sharper than I remember previously. Uploaded my ride to Strava within seconds of stopping.

It looks like the Elemnt, Bolt and Roam V1's have now had firmware updates. Happy to be riding in 2025 again 😎

I too have refused to use bike hub pay. After rushing to post off an item I couldn't be bothered to wait for a seller to OK the transaction and then have to wait a few days for the money to be transferred into my account. I offer a 100% refund on all items I sell excluding the cost of postage. I have never had a problem and only lost one or two sales over the years.

Parts of my ride downloaded but lost most of the data was lost. I first noticed a problem when the unit kept auto pausing. A very loud paused buzzing sound came on and went on for almost a minute after I stopped at a traffic light. Initially I thought the vehicle next to me had somehow jammed my phone/unit. Thereafter no km/h readings where showing. I shut off the unit and restarted the ride but the issues continued. I haven't tried to use the unit since and hopefully a firmware update will be issued soon.

Here is a quick heads up to what some of you may have experienced on your Sunday morning ride! Let us hope Wahoo issue a firmware update soon. https://www.dcrainmaker.com/2025/08/wahoo-bolt-roam-v1-gps-units-reset-20-years-back-become-unusuable.html?fbclid=IwY2xjawMRAypleHRuA2FlbQIxMABicmlkETFldTYxU2tPWE12NW90UnphAR44g1UigE2D7zkvAaZGSuWoGU5p6lCG50H97WAeiOl6Tt5zUlD1ypObr1Roww_aem_GhXOFnOLtShm_aDCvYIQ3Q Please, this is not a thread for haters, but an information thread.

Hi Shane, you should get between R1,500 to R2,000 for the bike

Numerous potholes along this road also add to vehicles swerving into the emergency (cycle) lane. Someone should set the overgrown grass alight to increase visibility.
