Hi guys Cannot find any info on how to seat (correct word?) my new XT brake pads properly. Shimano g03ti brake pads - METAL Any advice??? Thanks in advance

Possible scam. Nice Thule 3 bike rack on marketplace for R5000 - new cost more than R14500. Chap by the name of Douglas??? On Facebook since 2024. Want money to keep the rack for me as more than 200 people phoned since 05h00 this morning...LOL. I said I will do R500 and he came back with: if someone gives me the R5000, our deal is off. So I told him I will play ball. No bank account details, only a pin and phone number that he wanted me to do Cash Send to... Told him I paid the full amount, and he called me immediately saying nothing is showing... When I called his bluff he said I am the dodgy one... go figure Using 061 632 5314 if this help anyone out there.

Going 1x11 XT Components, 11-46 Sunrace. Doing away with the paint. Polish aluminum look for the main frame and carbon black for the swing arm...

Hi all Building a budget bike. SRAM Level brake set or the Shimano BR 355?? Which is better/best? Thanks in advance

Thanks guys. We decided to start looking for a new frame. Not worth the hassle.

Hi all Asking for a friend (seriously). Can this be repaired and if so, what is the chances of it happening again? The rider is not a small fellow. Cheers

Good to know, thanks. Also with them and was wondering if they any good on bike insurance.

Thank you very much. Close to me then...

Where are they located? Need to service my Fox fork and shock. (and i will drop and pick-up myself)

Just disappeared.

Seems like he asked a legit question and got good advice from Jewbacca.

Hi All Anybody had dealings with the below? I posted an add and 5 min later got WhatsApp call. Wanted the bike shipped via courier. Wanted discount which I approved. Am I willing to courier? Said yes, at his expense. Said he will take care of courier cost as he has a account with a courier company - sounded like "Courier Guy". Wanted my account details. Said that I would send it shortly. 2 min later got WhatsApp asking for account numbers. Not once did the person ask any specific questions related to the bike. I am good at giving a proper description but not that good. If legit, my humble apology's. Name : It's Time to ride Looking to buy/sell or service a bicycle?

Thanks. Chain stay = 440 with 46 cassette and 32 chainring recommend 110 links for 10 speed. +2 links for 11 speed. So if their /my calculations are correct, I should get a 112 link chain?

Hi all I bought myself a 11/46T Sunrace cassette (new) to be fitted on a Momsen Vipa. Currently have the XT 11/40 cassette on. Bought the bike secondhand so not sure on the km's on it. Derailleur - XT 8000 - long cage Chainring - Oval 32t What chain length should I purchase ,without killing the bank, that will fit my chainring/derailleur setup? KMC or Shimano for the Sunrace cassette? Thanks in advance.

Hi all Currently sitting with a Shimano BB-MT800 Pressfit on my Momsen Vipa 2016 model. On the weekend I hit a couple of muddy puddles. now there is a funny grinding noise coming from the BB. Only audible when I put pressure on it. Did the same just before lockdown and thought it an isolated incident. How do I remedy the problem (washing excluded)? If I need to go new, what is best? Cheers in advance

Sorry bud...school fees was paid. I was also tried but luckily I read the Scam tread here on the hub. This happened on the 5th of December last year? Why reporting it on here only now? Bike is long gone.

Got a call at 16h30 stating they outside my house (I, of course was not home). Told them the money has not cleared my account so we need to discuss before collection. Not answering the phone anymore...

I am stringing him along, will change address and pick-up time at 16h00...

And he tells me he will send me the drivers name with the car make and reg. This shi# is happening now...

All of them is not bad. Just sold my bike on OLX without the buyer seeing it. Needed the bike urgently and wanted to pick it up right away. Saw this movie before so asked for payment up front to be sure this is not a scam. Received proof of payment from ABSA that money was paid into my account via a third party on behalve of the original buyer. They are picking up the bike this afternoon from me... Opposite Sinoville SAPS....

Then they give you 38km to ride and i only prepared for 33km . Waterpoints was also below par as per previous years.(was my 4th Monster). But will do at least one more to get to that 5 timer accolade
