  1. Ok cool, thanks. Might experiment a bit sometime.
  2. Agree on the rapid bar. Myles, what would happen if I go from a 60mm stem to something shorter? Should I, would it be beneficial?
  3. Ok cool. Glad it helped you position. I remember when I changed to a shorter stem, was so good and had more control and the bike just went where I wanted it to go and I felt like a better rider that I actually am...hahaha
  4. Nice. Would lile to know your experience with the shorter stem after your first ride.
  5. I was just wondering about the difference as there are so many new components coming out to empty our wallets????. Thanks for the feedback and would be nice to see it on the bike as it looks really cool☺
  6. Does this really make a noticible difference to your ride. Any scientific evedence proving these oval rings are easier to pedal? Would like to see how it looks on the bike☺
  7. Hope so, went on your advice seeing as though last time it worked our really well:)
  8. Ordered Friday, arrived this morning. Brilliant service from Bibi.
  9. For what its worth, Myles recommended a shorter stem for (I was aski g the questions) so I took the advise and went from 90mm stem to 60mm stem. Best thing ever!. Handling was so much better and more control. Also went wider on the bars and handling and control was fantastic. Search a thread called Stem 101. Thats the thread where I got all the info.
  10. I went from a 90mm to a 60mm stem and got me those rapide 780mm bars and its a whole new ball game. Handling is fantastic, you wont regret it.
  11. Miss money Penny looking hot. Really love that colour. Would like to see a full pic. Congrats :-)
  12. Bwahahaha....today the prize will be a set of tires...hahaha
  13. I can understand uf you decide you no longer want something and at least you told the buyer. That is perfectly fine I think but this guy just not get back to me at all.
  14. I have experienced some issues that annoy me: 1) A buyer contacted me regarding an item I was selling. He agreed to purchased the item and asked for.my banking details which I gave. Never heard from him again after numerous follow up messages. 2) I enquired about two items from different sellers only to get a response saying the items were sold. I mean really, if its sold then update the ad ir remove it. 3) Enquored about products but get absolutely so response even after pms and comments on the ad. If you put something up the be decent enough to monitor your ads and answer requests.
  15. The cage i haveis already a side loder but if all else fails i will keep you in mind...thanks.
  16. Ja, that's a very viable option if the bottle don't fit...hahaha...fit the bike around the the bottle...
  17. Right, i get it now. Thanks for tip. Will try it.
  18. Have not tried that. Under the bottom bolt meaning the bolt sticks up a little and pushe don the bottlom of the water bottle?
  19. Aha, a flat top bottle may be a solution. Thanks
  20. Very nice. What bottle cage is that? Asking as i have a similar geometry and can't find a good bottle cage to fit. Tried a Lezyne Easy flow but the bottle hits and bends at the top tube.
  21. These beauties:-)
  22. Glad i was not the only one that thought the fees were a little out there. Was interested to learn more about the mechanis but just cannot afford such hefty fees but a great idea though.
