  1. Yes indeed. Received derailleur with 2 missing bolts and 1 missing jockey wheel.Can't complain though, got a good deal along with a chorus seat post, 10 speed shifters, crank.
  2. Hello fellow Campagnolo aficionados. I wonder if one of you gentlefolk could steer me in the right direction. Recently taken delivery of a carbon 10 speed Chorus rear derailleur which is missing a few bits. I need the bolts that hold the two sides of the cage together. I'm not sure precisely what year it is. Any ideas where I might source the missing bits? I am based in the Western Cape and have mailed J&J to see if they stock and can send to my LBS. Hoping there's a quicker, simpler solution. Thanks

  5. Black though, appreciate the response
  6. Where do you lot buy yours? Just need some inoffensive silver alloy ones to fit into an old gipiemme crank. Or do I just file down the old ones?
  7. Has only two "a"s. Just saying.
  8. Thank you sir.
  9. Who does this work?
  10. How hard could it be to source a matching coloured swing-arm? I sometimes wonder if suppliers think they act in a vacuum and consumers have no means of communication. So a forum populated by many many keen cyclists thinks twice about buying this brand. Whereas had they delivered as promised we'd all think what a great bunch of guys, maybe I WILL buy that Ghost I was considering.Talk about dropping the ball.
  11. Thanks very much for your thorough response. Turns out the seller had Daytona and somehow got "confused".... Wheels might still be available, pm if you like and I can try and get hold of him or put you in contact. Was too rich for my blood at the end of the day.
  12. I'll join both of you?
  13. I usually do, I made one error of judgement after a *** day, got in a slanging match and lost my temper. For which I felt remorseful and stupidly thought this board might reach the person in question. Letting this one go now. Godspeed.
  14. Congrats on the BEN ride.
  15. You weren't there, please don't make uninformed comments, I went over an intersection while the light was red but the t junction lights had turned to red. With no oncoming traffic. I shouldn't have, as I admitted. If you want to beat your chest and claim the moral high ground do so at someone else's expense. I posted this as I have no idea how to contact the person involved and felt like I should at least try to apologise. That is all.
  16. To the older guy with the beard who griped at me through the window of his car. Yes, I jumped the red light. I shouldn't have, but I did. Your confrontational approach via the rolled down window probably isn't the best way to encourage amended behaviour. That said, my verbal response to you was way over the top and I apologise unreservedly. Posting this here in the hope it might make its way to you.
  17. Going to ask here as I may have better luck than in the buyer's guide I tried, 90s Super Record and Campag Shamal deep section wheels...anyone able to give me a rough idea what a fair price would be? Need them for my Dad's Tomassini rebuild and I may have a shot at acquiring them. BUT...I really need to know what the S African market value would be. Any help appreciated, thanks.
  18. Yeah that's what I had worked out. Though my CT sense of direction is still sketchy the mountain is always a fixed reference. I will set this up soon via the hub and my place of works twitter feed.
  19. Don't own a MTB By mountainous I guess I meant something like Chappies. Road only at present.
  20. Open to suggestions, just came back from UK, work in CBD, keen to get a group ride going, anything nice and mountainous/scenic but not a total hammerfest would suit me.
  21. Thanks man, would you be prepared to order and let me try before I buy? Not sure if I need wider, my feet are not that wide.
  22. Any opinions on a fair value? Decent condition.
  23. Mid 30s metalheads who cycle...and I thought it was just me.
