  1. Two or three drops of Shimano mineral oil in the rubber seal and it should sort the problem.
  2. The reward is that feel good feeling you get for helping someone else and not expecting anything in return.
  3. You do realize this thread is from 2012.
  4. An oval or ellips hole in aluminum is better than a round hole. Ok i won't get into the physics of that but same would be for the windows and doors on a plane etc. Maybe someone with the time could give an explanation.
  5. I think the bottom of the BB would be fine to drill a small hole. Norco cables run outside the down tube so it will route down and pop in at the bottom of the BB. most important is cleaning the hole/ burs sharp edges after you drill to prevent cracks.
  6. I blame the Shimano groupset for the demise of the Bianchi.
  7. I think you hit the nail on the head. " Bogus Topic"
  8. That is a bit uncalled for. You jump on the forum accusing 90% of hub land of been scammers. When someone makes a comment you don't like you throw attitude. You are welcome to take your goodies and sell them someplace else.
  9. I think @Matt and the team keep a tight ship. If you have a problem then report it. But 9 out of 10 you must be the first person to experience this.
  10. You can get them from the Thule store.
  11. I presume this is related to your post.
  12. It is CTCT weekend so i think many cyclists have gone to Cape Town. But events overall are showing reduced numbers.
  13. mon français n'est pas délicieux
  14. Can mayby try Sue or Rodney Fowler at Raffa Bikes in Midrand. If i recall they are the importers of Buzz Rack. I have got a few parts from Sue.
  15. Yep agreed. The bikes are way old and maybe a little expensive for what they are. For <20k probably pick up a Merida Reacto/Sultura or newer TCR.
  16. Maybe he sold it.
  17. Yea just complicated. Not sure if a disc wheel is a wheel, a rim or a disc.
  18. Still has the Garmin mount on the bars.
  19. None of this adds up🤣
  20. So riming and a wheelie are not the same thing?
  21. Ok i get where your going 😂 sounds like a race for clever okes. Shop Towl? Sorry i can't settle for last😂🤣
  22. Ok so maybe above my mental intellect. I just see a garbage ad why bother enquiring and move on.
  23. I fail to see why someone would take the time and effort to post junk like that. Wasted time for admin to clean up garbage ads.
  24. Yea these are one of the most useful tools i have. They come in a left-handed and a right.
  25. With the move made by UCI to scrap the restrictions the component manufacturers have also stopped making the cassettes. Also had somthing to do with the 12&13 Speed drivetrain and junior ratios was creating a challenge for Shimano etc.
