Hi. I realize this is subjective and dependent on many variables, but what you you expect to pay for a stock standard stumpjumper expert disk 120 that looks like it's been well looked after?

Yes, 26. The frame can fit 650 too, which is one of the reasons I'm so interested.

I have an opportunity to buy a 2012 KTM Taser in grand condition, with recently replaced drivetrain and brakes for what I think is a pretty good price. Problem is I dont have the cash. I could finance it, but I am very hesitant to do so because I don't really NEED it. ... Well of course I NEED it, but you know what I mean... It seems to me that if it's a really good buy, and I can be sure that I could sell it and get my money back if I needed to within the next two years, then it's pretty much a no brainier. I'm not very familiar with KTM bikes and their prices and resale, so I'd be glad if you guys can help me out by answering the poll... I'm not sure which of the two models attached is the right one, but I think the top one.

I have done 500km plus on Kenda Nevegals with a ghetto conversion without a single complaint...

Can anyone comment further on racing ralphs with ghetto conversion & stans sealant? yes / no / maybe?

Sorry for the Hijack, but I am also looking for someone who can vouch for these bike racks. This Marius 3 in particular: 3 bike tow bar mounted carrier for less than the Thule xpress... sounds like a good deal? Only think I'm not so keen on is that on their website it shows this with two straps that go from the carrier and hook onto your boot lid to stop the carrier falling backwards... should that be necessary?

Haven't read the whole thread, so I don't know if you've come right yet or not but you might find this helpful: https://community.bikehub.co.za/topic/78337-led-lenser-bike-light/page__p__1117418__hl__led+lenser__fromsearch__1?do=findComment&comment=1117418 If he hasn't already been involved here, PM lenser, he can probably give you the best deal and service you will find.

Did you get sorted out with this? I can help you with design and coordinating with manufacturers. www.diverseagencies.com

I wonder why? I've changed the poll to allow for it...

Really? Was this such a bad idea?

Hi there, I am developing a cycling-orientated calender for 2011. The calendar will consist of a front cover, 12 pages of calendar, and a back cover. It will be a wall-type calendar, aproximately A3 size. The calendar pages will contain all the usual calendar info, as well as information about all the major races and related events that occur during that particular month, where information is available that far ahead of course. Each page will be “sponsored” by a cycling-related brand (bicycle / equipment manufacturers etc.) This means that if you “sponsor” a page, the page for that month will display your logo, contact details, and pictures of your products and/or team rider(s) in action. I would like to keep it as exclusive as possible, and include no more than one, or at the most two brands from each catagory (one bicycle brand, one clothing brand, one components brand, one safety equipment brand, one nutrition product etc etc). The back page will contain a listing of cycle shops around the country as well as other useful contacts like event organisers, clubs etc and all the other info that is usually found on the back of a calendar. The calendar will go on sale in late November / early December of this year. Buyers will either be able to purchace it online, or at any cycle shop in the country who is interested in participating. The purpose of having each page sponsored by a known cycling related brand is (a-) To create an adverising oppurtunity for the brands, (b-) to bring down the final selling price of the calendar, thereby increasing sales and maximising exposure, and (c-) to make the product more appealing to buyers by including thier favorite brand(s) and possibly thier favorite rider(s). Anyone who is interested in sponsoring a page in the calendar, placing a listing at the back of the calendar, or would like to sell the calendar in their shop, please contact me. jethro.mcmullan@gmail.com Obviously final pricing etc can only be determined based on the response from sponsors, and expected sales, so this will have to be advised later. Please take part in the poll to help me determine the viability of this venture.

You've probably come right by now, but have a look here: www.ledlenser.co.za The M7 is very suitable and you can get a nice bike mount for it.

How secure is that O-ring mounting setup on those magicshine lights? Anyone had a problem with then moving around or falling off?
