    Put the spanner on but make sure its on tightly ( put a rubber band in between the spanner if needed) Then put the other pedal back in the crank and place it inbetween the gap made by the bricks in your wall , finaly put a pvc or steel pipe over the spanner and gently start aplying pressure ( if the spanner starts to bend then you have a big problem Also try adding some lube like puple extreme gets in everywhere or something corosive like q20 also make sure you are turning in the right direction i.e. the pedal wil turn out in the opposite direction that you pedal

    Got mine for exactly the same price Just got back from my first ride with them and is very very different (I will take out the spacers was a little to loose) Wheelie and manuals are the same but bunny hops are super hard now also its a great feel on the decents ( I only did about 10km tho) happy thus far Also noticed its very hard to keep up the spedd i previously did with clips but It may be my shoes I rode with old VANS sneakers . Excited to start riding with these they make my bike look so damn hot

    I have been riding on clips ever since i started mtb'ing but recently I have been thinking of buying flats because i hear the ride is more satisfying/inspires confidence and looks cool ect. ect. ect. Now i don't just want to bite the bullet and buy super expensive pedals to begin with ( Just incase I don't like them) Is there anybody that can recommend a cheap(relatively) set that aren't to bad just to start out with.................or I if anybody has an old set they don"t use I'l trade you a case of beer. Can you also advise me on 1) Which ones do you have 2) price 3)experince 4)availibility of replacement parts 5) Other things I may want to know Thanks Happy trails

    where does he keep his big brass balls??
  15. BaGearA

    check the bolt very carefully most of the time there is a slot in the plate where the cable needs to sit , its very rare that the cable should just be clamped between two flat plates

    to check if the bearings are worn lift the bike and spin the wheel very fast for front - hold your stansions with your index finger and tumb very lightly ,you wil feel an unmistakable grinding feeling if they are worn for back - do the same but hold the seatstays about halfway with your fingers, not the chainstay... after this you wil definitely know if its the bearings or not. good luck and report back if you find the cause

    I have heard of people that call on engineering companies to machine cups fro them that are pressed in the headtube and then allows a tapered steerer I however have never seen one or heard of someone who has actually done it , but it does sound cool and interesting

    try the hills near klapper kop in the waterkloof area they are not very long 450m max, but they are super steep and spinting 6-8 of them 2 or 3 times a week wil be much beter than just sitting and spinning very long hills good luck , see you on the start line

    what does a solaris frame price?
  23. BaGearA
    To everyone complaining about squirt guncking up your chain it's because you are using too much and also not wiping the excess off.... lube is ment to be on the inside i.e. on the rollers everything on the outside is 100 percent useless
  24. BaGearA
