I don't know if these are any good maybe someone can order and test. I see Temu has many different hoods available. https://share.temu.com/gQdrF71zCHA https://share.temu.com/7Xcq5WKliyA https://share.temu.com/cDJ2RLYgNlA https://share.temu.com/Pq0v1pvx07A

The ball should be a std 50mm for both cars. The rack looks like it was repaired or reinforcement done maybe the welding has a high spot that over time wore into the old ball making it sit tight. The new ball is probably perfect round and the rack swivels on the weld or high spot. The rack mount does not look square that could also be a problem.

Hi sorry for your loss. You can also post your bikes in the stolen bike section of Bike Hub. https://bikehub.co.za/stolenbikes/

Probably cheaper to look at a good second-hand set. Your budget won't get much if you replacing existing hubs. You might need new spokes correct lengths and the cost of strip/rebuild over and above the Hub cost.

I insured my bike with Outsurance under my household out & about. I gave them the value that I found to be the appropriate market value for the bike. When I had a claim they gave the cash to replace it second-hand or use cash as I see fit.

It is probably not a good idea. Thule don't recommend hatchback racks for cars with plastic spoilers and I would think same would apply to Holdfast. Although it may hook on the steel of the lid it is still resting on the plastic and with 2 MTB might not survive.

Hey I offered 2.5k above asking price way better than the lowball offer that WBC will make. And did I mention it is cash.

Would you consider 30k cash?

Ok this is in way a rant but more an info seeking on what to expect or look for with a new bike. Recently 3 weeks back purchased a Cypher Elite for the wife. Wanting to know what is@Titan Racing Bikes out the box pre delivery procedure and what can customers expect to be done when taking delivery. The bike I have has less than 100km mainly road as the wife works and does some TDF challenge 10% of the stage thing late afternoon when getting home. Problems I have had so far are first 10km crank developed a wobble at the BB spacer on Raceface crank was broken and gears were not set correctly chattering when shifting on the cassette. 30km pivots started sounding rough dry as a bone no grease and crank felt stiff LBS sorted. Upon inspection the shock bolts had been switched around long at bottom and short at top. To ad I found plenty paint chips around the pivots. 80km in and first wash I noticed a broken tooth on the cassette. I like to think I know my way around a bike and can strip/rebuild most any bike and part but new bike warranty etc I leave it to the LBS. But 4 trips to the shop in 3 weeks is a bit much. Like I said not a rant and excuse my english/grammar/punctuation etc. 20240708_093744.mp4

Hi guys, I am look for a good Used ZTR Alpine 26er hoop 32 spoke. Need to rebuild a wheel for a youngster that damaged his wheel and i would like to try keep a matching set.

Not sure if it is something in the setup or the way cavendish sprints but this is not the first chain slip at a major race sprint.

That had the potential to go horribly wrong for a few riders.

Something did😆
