  1. Once upon a time, I had some shorts repaired at Rapid Sports in Cape Town. The bibs were awesome but the pad had done one too many trans alps.......Rapid were amazing and replaced the pads for me. I am now in need of another set of Bibs, that are in great condition but the pads are dead. Rapid however no longer repair or replace brands that are not theirs, this is understandable. Does anyone know of a shop or company, preferably up north, Pretoria area, that does do repairs and or replacement, or even just willing to sell decent quality pads?
  2. Train your upper body is a similar way you train your legs. Get a punch bag n do at least 30 min 3-4 times a week.
  3. Great entertainment! Who needs IronMan, Thor< X-Men or any other scripted crap....when you have TheHub!
  4. NOTHING touches the Lefty!!!! That said.......Scalpel loved tossing me over the bars on numerous occasions. The Epic beats the Scalpel everytime! Just a better all round package. NOW...lets throw in a Flash..........different level altogether ! Me thinks I've woken the dragons here! Popcorn please.
  5. We're all in Cape Town.
  6. oops, think I stole that sale from you! lol
  7. It may be time to close this thread.
  8. Wow, me thinks a can of worms has been opened!
  9. read my statement, it had gone beyond DIBS. Emails and confirmation were all but set in stone. If the shoes fit, excuse the pun, the sale was on. What's so difficult about that for you to grasp!
  10. Well, this has been fun, but I have work to do. I'll just buy other rd shoes from a reliable dealer. Money will be well spent.
  11. no I'm saying we had been in email discussions. I wanted the item on condition they fit. Asked for a meeting point ASAP to close the deal, got no response so followed up twice in a couple hours, to meet to fit and pay.....in cash! No I don't expect seller to sit around waiting, but if a deal is in progress and a third party steps in, at least give the first buyer the option to settle immediately or forego the deal This is standard business practice, at least in the first world! No matter if it's $10 or $1000000 He'll the seller could even counter with an auction in public on the ad. Then the seller is the winner and the person willing to pay the most goes home happy!
  12. Then in my, HONEST, opinion, The Hub has gone to ****! IMHO! But hey, if that's how you do business.....I don't want your business. I think that's fair!
  13. Okay, so now I know.....honor from both sides is so Old School! Well I think Old School is cool.
  14. so it's NOT just me. The Hubers have become part of the Inkantla debacle!I'm so sick of it! I don't sit at home waiting to run to the sellers house. Just because someone else can get there sooner, doesn't void the first dibs buyer!
  15. Is anyone else having this issue? You see an ad. You want the item. You contact the seller/ Huber. You are in the process, fitting, verifying and whatnot. The sale is practically steeled. You send final details, meeting to fit, and are told "SORRY ITS SOLD". WTF. What happened to the integrity of The Hub and it's Hubers? When did all the underhanded shenanigans begin? Fkg bullsh!t.
  16. This is all void, where was His partner? if he was still in traffic, the move has no advantage unless his partner ALSO jumped position! Hates everyone suddenly forgotten the 2 minute rules his partner would have had to make it through, what was mostly outcast, traffic! It's a grudge protest LOUD and clear.
  17. I think they "S'cott" a wanker in their team! No offense to roadies, but it appears the heart and soul of what is mtbiking has been replaced by roadie mentality, "win by any means" especially beating you with the rule book, NOT ability! Up yours Scott!
  18. I got mine from Extreme too. Great product and even better service. Bar mount, and camera, survived 2 huge wipeouts so far. Alu is def best!
  19. Go to the Action Camera section on Classifieds, here on the Hub. You can get almost any adaptor available. I use a stem mount, handlebar mount or seat post mount. I ride with 2. Mount and enjoy.........ooh that sound wrong! lol
  20. I have these;https://community.bikehub.co.za/topic/101054-single-speed-projects/page__st__1232 Looking for Rd crank for my SS project. Not sure what to charge though. Not more than a few hundred I suppose, unless you can swap for a rd crank for me.
  21. Felt have left SA. Possibly try contact Felt on their www. Possibly buy new arm. Or lbs could source for you. Don't weld, I did with my old Cannondalde, kept breaking.
  22. I have a triple crankset I want to swap for a rd crankset for my SS project. These don't fit. 175mm Let me know what you have. Pedals NOT incl.
  23. So here is what I have so far. Next step, liquid vinyl........and elbow grease for crank arms, not in pic, but have Race Face.
  24. Those are not mine....yet, they were found online. Hoping to have them machined.
  25. Coming soon to a Moonlightmass near you! I have had this frame laying around for years. Santa Cruz only made them for 3 years, and I have been dreaming of this conversion for ages. All thats missing now are wheels. This is the direction I'm going With a paint job stolen from Mr Minaar, Hey Greg, if you see this….Thanks and ….. Sorry! Wheels are gonna be an issue! Watch this space! I could go this way, but The color scheme has been done to death!
