Has anyone checked the B screw on the rear derailleur - easily overlooked. AND make absolutely sure that all the derailleur parts are also straight and that the hanger is on the same plane as the rim. (small things massive issues skop skiet en donner issues) (If the arms on the derailleur are not straight you will have issues (not talking about the side plates))

You need to ask admin for a comic sans button !!

Question ???? What happens when as a cyclist you are the cause of an accident - you are liable. Who has insurance as a cyclist that would cover the claims ??? (Your motor vehicle insures you while you are driving insured vehicle)

Only petrol motor sounds like a chainsaw - gives you that rush and makes you invincible.

The thread was stripped with the initial service. If the thread is stripped the part has to be replaced. I suspect the thread did not engage and was then forced on with the spanner.

Here they hit you with a baseball bat before you even know it and that IS a fact (been done) !!!

There will always be opportunity for surprise on a ride they create it.

Just plain old motor oil not synthetic. Small drop on every joint before every ride - not even two minutes. Clean regularly Definition of lubricant "a substance used for lubricating an engine or component, such as oil or grease."

You are never going to get to that pepper spray - that's a fact!!!! They operate on surprise.

There - fixed !!!

Mountain bike - old sump oil before every ride takes me less than 2 min. E-bike - nothing - my knees are still good. Road bike - every 15 rides or so from empty can at the filling station forecourt bin unless it has rained. Trainer - what's that. I suppose some will say "Holy Cow" !!! Shiz you not

Take them off and throw them in with the washing in the washing machine.

After all is said and done they still have us by the short and curlies.

I suspect that you have already made up your mind about a new bike but could not justify it in your own mind and you are now garnering support here on the hub. Don't worry it's been done before. 😝 Btw I might be interested in your Trance but remember it is an old bike with old geometry and 27 wheels and the front fork leaves much to be desired and as for getting new tyres almost impossible so ja ....

A Trance is a Trance ou pel. They handle almost everything that you throw at them well. You are not going to improve on it that much and as for it being a 27 that's more of a mind thing yes 29 wheels are nice but are you going to have more fun on it ? - doubt it. If you are a serious race snake you are going to spend a lot more money to get more bike. If your Trance is not a 1x 11 or 12 yet it would be much better to spend bucks on that and get a dropper post if you don't have one. And get FLAT pedals. Money well spent. Just my opinion

How ???? Surely you must notice when you are riding without a rear wheel. Of is hy 'n bietjie lig in die broek ???

Does a wider rim make a significant difference ?? Genuine question.

Today's inflation figures was 7,4% Tomorrow's repo rate increase at least 50 basis points. Did you get a salary increase yesterday - I work for myself (I think) so no. Who can afford a new bike ??? Both my kid's bought houses a year ago - EINA !! Must say that when I bought a house many years ago the mortgage rate was double to three times.

Not available live just bits and pieces here and there.

The juniors were impressive 4 of them in the top ten times for the day. Granted it was early in the day so the track would have run faster.

I love mountain bike races - the bigger the better as well as more. Somehow the more costly they are the more riders they attract. While everyone is at the races I have a great choice of quiet trails to choose.

For a Colnago you don't throw in the towel - you die first.

I am a Sub 3 hour cycle tour, master (66 plus) a couple of times 😉 Type of riding - distances - average speeds on your own / in group Seriousity ??

What drives the price up of lube and any lube for that matter is marketing. Same case with that stuff you gooi in your tjoepless tires. Where is Johan Bornman when you need him. 🙃 I had a case some years ago where I could manufacture and sell energy powder/drink at a fraction of the price that the market could supply. A 2.5kg tub of powder was selling for R280 at the LBS at the time and I was making my own with the exact same base ingredient which I was buying from Tongaat at R275 for a 25kg bag. I approached some dealers to gauge interest - none - it was all about the marketing. I wanted to keep it too simple.

???? Warmed potty with lid for winter ???
