    Hi all, so I am looking for a new watch strap. I have a Garmin Fenix 6 which uses the 22mm quickfit system. I currently have the stock rubber band and it works great, starting to tear where the buckle joins to the strap but other than that no problems at all. I do however LOVE the Velcro/nylon strap that Garmin introduced with the Enduro 2 model, only problem is that it is only available in 26mm width. Does anybody know of a different brand that might have bands similar to these? I saw that Forza Trading launch their own line of garmin watch bands but unfortunately no velcro/nylon option Link to the Forza straps - https://www.forzatrading.co.za/collections/watch-accessories

    Hydrapak supplies Salomon with flasks but the Salomon speed flask has a different "skroef draad" to open/close it quicker. I did, hoewever, give up on the search already. Just going to buy 2 new flasks this weekend.

    Hi all, so over the weekend both of my Salomon soft flasks lids popped, I spoke to Salomon but turns out the lids aren't covered by the warranty. The lids are also not available separately so I have to buy 2 new flasks. Not ideal. Does anybody know of any other brands of flasks that has lids/caps that are compatible with the salomon flasks?

    This sucks! Goodluck...I have a feeling it will show up on OLX or Gumtree. If not one of those you are very likely to find it at a Cashcrusaders. I found my stolen bike at the Centurion Mall cashcrusaders

    Thanks or this! I am a huge suunto fan and Ultimo definitely did their part in making me one. Happy and safe miles????

    Hi hubbers! So I recently needed 2 tools but had absolutely no reason to actually buy them as I was just helping a friend. I needed a 12sp Shimano chainring tool and also a masterlink /quicklink plier thing. I figured I might as well try my luck and found out that many many cyclist already designed and printed these (and many more) tools. I also found interesting on-bike storage parts and other nifty little bits and bobs. Have any of your ever printed any bike related things? If so please share! I think it will be quite interesting to see what the bikehub community has come up with

    Great to hear that they back their warranty! Also had an amazing experience with Osprey. Zip went after a few years. Sent them an email with pictures and within a week I had a pack with a brand new zip. Also had a similar experience with Stanley and Leatherman

    Ultimo is actually "nogals opit" so I think you will have a pleasant experience with them. Quite curious as to how this plays out. Please keep us updated

    I've also been looking for one for months now, looking for a medium though. There's a large frame hanging at Trek wolwespruit for R16k -all black, like the one pictured in your ad.

    What brand of hubs do you have? Most brands sell "boost adapters". Quite easy to find
  12. Blokeonabike
    Thanks for the heads-up. There is both a small and large available in a Cotic Simple. I currently ride a Meidum Sworks epic with a slammed -20 degree stem. So would you say that the small will be closer to my current setup than a large?

    Will send him a message in the morning, thank you!

    Hi all, I've been considering a new build centered around a steel mtb frame. Cotic has always caught my eye so I really like the idea of building one. Does anybody have a frame that they are looking to sell? I am looking for a size medium hardtail. It can be single speed (Cotic simple) or geared. I'm planning on a rigid build but will consider up to 120mm travel upfront. I'll also consider any other steel frame. I know about the Momsen STF and STR, I contacted Nils at Woodstock cycleworks and also covered nearly every website and store in SA. If you have any recommendations on other brands or know of places where I can find frames I really appreciate that!

    Hi all, I'm looking at building either a STR or STF but have some questions. The plan is to build it with a 120mm Fox 34 rythm fork but also considering a 100mm fork. The idea is to build a bike that will be comfortable enough for the odd 4-6 hr ride but also fun enough for a quick trail session at Wolwespruit or so. 1. What are the differences other than the sliding dropouts? 2. I am 1.72m would you recommend anything other than a size medium and why? 3. Is it possible to fit fir a 2.35" tire on a 28mm ID rim in the back? 4. Are QR dropouts available? 5. Anybody looking to sell theirs?????
