  1. Sorry pic did not load for some reason. If at first you dont succeed......
  2. My most recent build. Frame is self built out of ally tubing using bianchi fork and a set of wheels from rook. Gearing is 48 x 16 on the freewheel and 17 on fixed gear.
  3. Vertical dropouts converted successfully on two of my old frames. One bianchi that I ride daily. Happy to share the info if you want.
  4. BUILT NOT BOUGHT. Can anyone guess the frame?
  5. I have an x9 10 speed of it will help
  6. The commute from Moghotlong to Polihali in Lesotho. One of the most breathtaking views to help forget the days stress.
  7. Thanks to the guys at Rook for getting my goodies to me.
  8. Hmmmmm..... I underestimated those beans....... dropped three cups down the hatch when I texted you and I'm still buzzing.......
  9. Ngwenya glass in muldersdrift made some for me. Then you have the option to sandblast a design of your choice on sandblast totally for the frosted look or leave plain.
  10. So now you have my attention. Tell me about your coffee. What beans are you roasting? I normally order +-4kg casalinga for myself (more on the plus side) but looking for a nice dark roast done with robusta beans. Can you do?
  11. I TOTALLY agree with your post until you get to the ROADIE part of things. There are arseholes on both sides.Seen plenty mtb'ers riding in bunches on the black top.
  12. The scout comes out with wtb biway 47's if I'm not mistaken. Plenty width there and then some
  13. I started off with the flats, was looking for a bit more of a relaxed position so have since changed to risers and they give me the perfect position, also I can shift centre of gravity forward easier to lock up the rear easier using the risers for some reason. With drops and flats I was going too far forward. Not using the bars from rook as I ride a wider bar setup.
  14. You will not make a mistake. I have a rook one and can not fault it at all. Robust, fun to ride and gives a good workout. Being from joburg I do not know the guys at the shop but but they answer questions very quickly and seem friendly. As far as I'm concerned the product speaks volumes.
  15. Kalahari if you *** me out ill come repo the parts I gave you!!!! I am looking for a set of mechanical disc brake calipers for my home built frame (workshop actually) in order to test. I dont want it them for free and will pay all costs.
  16. Does anyone have a set of old mechanical disc calipers they dont need??? Dalk, meskien, maybe??
  17. I used this when I played rugby.Best to use as soon after the injury as possible but can use a day or 2 later. Seals up quick, dries out quick and heals quick. NOTE THE FIRE SYMBOL IS THERE FOR A REASON. YOU WILL USE SOME CHOICE WORDS ONCE SPRAYED ON FOR THE FIRST 30 SECONDS.
  18. What did you strip on the crank arm ? Might be able to repair it for you.
  19. I have a 7 speed freehub and cassette but unfortunately no wheelset. freehub is in good condition but cassette has been sitting around for a few years gathering dust and rust I would assume. Pm me if interested.
  20. I have bars off a silverback and some stems but sure all the stems are 100mm. Bars are 600/610 I think. You welcome to them.
  21. Check the cable routing at the anchor bolt. If possible route it the other way around the bolt. Could be shearing off because of wrong routing.
  22. Rather buy a 10 rider at thaba and still have coffee after each ride
  23. Similarities....
  24. Reminds me of the concertina passenger busses.......from the 80's
