Uphill battle

My last interaction was very disappointing. Every step of the process took several days. Then there was a warranty issue, more days per back and forth. I’m done.

I do puzzle at how some companies manage to ship comparable items for under R100, where as others seemingly charge comparatively high fees.

HI All, GoPro Hero 6 Fame - any where in Durban and surrounds to buy in-store?? (or, maybe you have one to sell?) Thanks in advance

I added bungi cords to the handle bars, and down to the load bars to damped any wobbling (or around the bike frame and to the load bars), and a ratchet tie down (the rope ones) on each bike, also attached to the load bars, to help keep them in place. Would definitely wrap something around the contact points. Did 7000 km around SA and Namibia like this with two bikes on the roof.

All I recall about Upington is that it was hot. Very hot. Hotter than a Durban curry. I don’t think I’d survive cycling there.

It was a pretty quick run!

Sounds like a jol

Hi All, Looking for a non-boost 27.5 QR FRONT mtb wheel with 6 bolt disk mount (don't need a disk). Want to see if I can mullet a 26er, a mini-mullet. Based in Westville. Cheers, Here's to the weekend!

As per bertusras above. Load bars that attach (clamp) to your rails, and then a bike rack. I've done this for years now and far prefer it to the tow hitch option.

Ah, ok, thanks for the input.

Anyone use the Sunrace 1x12 upgrade kit?

And a Goat link is?

????????????????

Very interesting and totally depends what you want. My ride out rides many people on her 26” XC bike. There are plenty of used wheels, forks and shocks available. And new as well. It’s not that hard to have people bring in “gifts” from across one of many oceans; just a bit of forethought... Sure, 1x12 is very nice, I like my 27’5 wheels (now also seem as too small by many). But if a 26 will get you out there having a good time, why not? I have no doubt that a skilled rider could outperform me on a 26” ????????‍♂️ Three bikes for the price of one sounds like fun if you want three bikes with out a mortgage.
