Hi all, I’m looking for a wheel builder that can source rims and build a 24 spoke, 27,5er wheel set for me. I have hubs already which I want to use. I’m Cape Town based. I was in touch with a wheel builder last year but my email got hacked and so everything has been reset and wiped out, so lost those details. let me know if you know a wheelbuilder. Thanks

I have a Fox 32 grey in colour, 15mm TA tapered steerer fork which I can sell you.Excellent condition. DM me if you want to chat.

Maybe I have a Fox 26er fork that i havent used much because I changed over to a 120mm It's T/A and tapered.Steerer is 21cm, I think. .I'll have to take out of storage and send u pics

Clint.what ratio gears are you running?

Take in small doses until your gut can handle it or you will have the runs constantly

I rode Ellioti, and the new patouli last month...They were awesome

Now will SANPARKS refund the R150 which goes to them for cycling on Chapmans Peak drive??? I think they should.

Finally, the MTB is longer than the road!!!

Pine rings,wood blewitts, boletus , sulphur shelf and poplar boletus seem to be the only ones i can find. must research more.

Here's the issue. I took a shock in for a service. It was a 165x38 fox triad shock. It came back from the LBS as a 185. WTF???

Its a vehicle. The person in front has right of way. You may only pass if it is safe to do so...unless you own a taxi (tandem) in which case you can do what you want.

I'll help and i'm local. Also involved in the neighbourhood watch as well. PM me

Thats because Amex fees are really high so it doesnt work for merchants to have their cards. .....unless you want to pay a surcharge for the fee.

Thanks but it is a e type bolt on FD, so height is standard and so is parallelness

Oh and sorry it is a 39/26

Yes SRAM x0. Hmmmm directional chain...haven't checked if it is. Hmmm Thanx guys. Got some options to check now

Hey all, Got a funny problem. I've set up a new braze on front derailleur 2x10 on my bike.Works great if the bike is turned upside down and i'm shifting gears on the FD, then it swops from 39 chainring to the 24 chainring with no hassles and shifts up perfectly fine. Turn the bike over and ride it and the problems start. It seems when i have the bike the right way, I can change up from the 24 ring to the 39 ring but it refuses to cahange back down to the 39 ring even though i can see the cable is slack. Why is that??? I'm wondering if it doesnt have something to do with chain tension?? The chain i installed is the recommended length ie. 2 chainlinks longer than the length of big ring to big ring. Any advice??

Yes, i used to get those often. Lots of blood and energy stagnation. It needs to be massaged, but with medicine made for it.. You'll probably find that if you didn't massage it , you'll have a permanent lump and possibly some uneven lumpiness on the bone. caused by calcification. and note again...do not rub medicine on open bit of the wound.

where are the pictures???

In oriental medicine bruises like that with hard swelling are usually on the bone or have gone bone level. Get yourself some Chinese medicinal linament. The linament is for martial arts injuries. The area should be bruising purple and black by now if you haven't been massaging it. Bone level injuries trap blood on the periosteum which weakens the bone, and stops energy flow. Heat the area well with a heated bean bag or some other method of warming it, then rub the linament well into the bruised area pushing down to bone level taking care NOT to allow linament into ANY areas that are open and some of the ingredients are poisenous.. This will hurt like hell. Press and rub area deeply until the bump has gone completely down. This will also hurt like hell.At this stage the bruise should turn a lovelybrownish pink shade. Do this 3 x a day and by the next day or 2 the black/blue colour will turn a yellowish brownish hue. This is a sign that the blood and energy stagnation has reduced and healing is on the way. If you do have any cracks in the bone this will accelerate bone healing as well. If not convinced go see GP rather.

I have a pair i just converted to tubeless. Love them. 1680g, strong as hell.
