Speak to Robbie at RBC in PE Bought my seals, bladder etc from him when my charger damper started leaking and didn't fully lock. he has plenty small spares that might help and you don't have to buy a kit.

Howzit Yes, that would work for seating tubeless tyres. Compressor is also handy to blow any excess water away after washing

Poker face maybe...?

and R105k for frame and fork with no flight attendant...

Howzit I bought the silca hot melt from privateer https://privateer.co.za/product/silca-secret-chain-blend-hot-melt-wax/ also the drip lube https://privateer.co.za/product/silca-super-secret-chain-lube/ went to cash converters and got a new slow cooker for R200 bucks. i've done about 7 chains, drivetrain stays clean( i use it on my mtb and road bike) and i am OCD about a clean bike! i bought a spare mtb chain so i do both mtb chains at once, rotate and do the waxing on both at the same time, saves time as the heating/initial melting takes some time but after that its quick. I used parrafin in the plastic container to clean(shake method), then degreaser and lastly the acetone as per silca's recommendation. so far I'm happy with the results and the drivetrain stays clean. No more chain scrubber or degreaser when washing the bike so it does save some time. apparently it also extends the live of the drivetrain but still to early to tell...

Thanks madmarc I also reuse quick-links, will give the Sram link a go

Howzit everyone Wondering if someone can help. when splitting a campag 10spd chain for the 1st time, what link can be used to join the chain again? i believe one cannot re-insert the pin again, so was wondering if there is a quick link available that wil work. after the below article i'd rather ask for help and avoid a broken chain on the side of the road https://velo.outsideonline.com/road/road-racing/making-it-work-campagnolos-new-10-speed-chain/

Summer... tan lines and a sweatfest in Worcester

need more bike checks!! awesome

I've been using blixem degreaser on my whole bike for years but it tend to give the gloss paint job a dull finish, so now only using it on the drivetrain. Switched to Shield car wash for the rest of the bike with no issues also use RSP hyper wiper after each wash and no issues. Sometimes i use the foam cannon with some snowfoam if the bike is dirty and busy washing the cars..... no hassles.

Good day You will be able to pull the crank off the spindle, I would therefore replace the spindle as they are not that expensive. you can try and drill it and use a extractor but I would also remove the spindle as the drill might slip and cause damage to the crank arm itself if trying to do it in place. Good luck

I've been running Maxxis Recon race 2.35 for ages, proper tough casings with no issues. Recently switched to Kenda booster Pro 2.4 they come in at the same width as the maxxis 2.35's but at a way better price, Currently all over for R500 a tyre with either blac of tan sidewalls did the MTB Challenge last weekend and they held up, they have more of a drop shoulder compared to the maxxis so i found the corner stability better. also doing W2W and they will be my tyre of choice for the 3 days

Yes, same shop bike was bought from

Bike shop needs to claim from insuranse so option one is to replace all the bike parts except frame, second option will be to replace the complete bike. problem is bike is now at bike shop and according to some insurance company experts this is a looong process.

Jip, sad thing is that namgear was the go-to product, shop owner handed the alternative product without any instructions except the verbal instructions

hi Tinmug, nope, decanted into blank container.

hi Guys, thanks for the feedback. I have edited the post. (customer ask bike shop application procedure and bike shop owner instructed customer to use as he did with namgear, the reason for asking was because it's decanted into a smaller container with no instructions or label) hope this helps by clarifying the situation.

Good day fellow hubbers posting on behalf of a friend. customer buys new bike (carbon dual suspension with deore xt parts) Takes bike on maiden voyage and decides to buy a fresh bottle of Namgear to wash new bike. (customer been using namgear for 3 plus years) Bike shop owner confirms he is out of stock and gives customer another type of bike-wash to use until namgear becomes available again. (customer ask bike shop application procedure and bike shop owner instructed customer to use as he did with namgear, the reason for asking was because it's decanted into a smaller container with no instructions or label) Takes bike for second ride and after ride starts washing bike with new bike-wash. rinse and dry bike and only to discover that new bike is now full of white stains on each and every component (cranks, rims, hubs, h/bar, dropper post, front & rear shock including shock stanchions , etc etc... ) After research and confirmation from supplier the bike-wash given to the customer is actually a heavy-duty engine degreaser containing caustic.... We all know what caustic does to anodized parts... Long story short, do the customer now hold the bikeshop responsible for the damage caused by the bike wash supplied?

That section is very steep with sharp turns! think there will be a few crashes as fatigue sets in as its just over half way. The climb to the top is rad 😎
