Hi All. Im looking for a used / damaged 24 or 26Inch FAT bike tyre. Purely for decorative purposes. Ive called how many shops in Pretoria / Centurion area, no one sells. Obviously not wanting to buy new, but most bike shops Icall the workshops do not do tyre swops on the fatbikes. Recommendations of shops in centurion / Pretoria area that work on fatbikes ???

Hers an email address. If all of us email this guy, maybe it may trigger some action. koos.nel@megacoach.co.za

Thanx TheoG...Ill PM you quock for contact details

Hubbers, Looking for a Maxxis 26x2.35 / 2.4 tyre...anyone spotted a shop with some old stock ???? Not really to specific on the model, something like a crossmark / Icon etc. Fast roller or other brand will also do.

100% accurate on all mentioned. Mostly its whom you know...Distributors protect their long standing shops / buddies and not interested in newcomers. Its sad but a true reality of our very small SA market.

One can talk about this till the end of days. ......Its simple IMO...many sellers and buyers on this Forum have not been taught the meaning of the word " INTERGITY" Unfortunately not everyone has had a decent upbringing, especially if someone wants to make a quick buck.

Red Barn only allow the special trials bikes ( no seats) to ride, but not mx bikes. I used to ride there.

It's simple... If you own land and want to enforce non trespassing, spend the money, fence it in and put up decent and enough signage. If I get hurt riding my enduro bike or mountain bike not knowing I'm on private land I'll stick that spike up the farmers @ss

Common law and common sense aside... Have dealt with many such sellers on this forum. Unfortunately these individuals have not been taught the meaning of the word Integrity.. small word but means a lot.

Different Cultures.... This will never change... Fully agree with most other comments here...Good for the emergency bits and bobs only.

Morne, Yes the DTH is also highly recommended...what is it like on dirt...most pump tracks locally are dirt track, worried about grip in the berms .

Thx, actually running the Race Kings on one of our other DJ bikes, but they are not going to last long on the Tar pumptrack...

Hi Hubbers ( those that dare ride these DJ bikes :-) ) Looking for some recommendations on 26 x 2.25 - 2.35 tyres. Will be used on BMX track, Tar and Gravel pump tracks. Since there is ZERO availability of any DJ tyres in SA, it will have to be imported so i want to be sure when i buy, to buy the right tyres. 1. Overseas reviews rate the MAXXIS Holy Rollers as one of the best all round tyres for DJ... Anyone here with an opinion on these tyres ? 2. Also the Kenda small block 8 tyres come highly recommended, but these are hard to come by, even overseas. Any feedback on these ? 3. Has anyone imported tyres recently ? and from where ? 4. And lastly, any chance anyone has perhaps seen these tyres locally, hidden away behind a rack in a shop somewhere ?

Thx all

Hi Hubbers, Trying to get some info for a friend that is looking for a 3 bike transport setup. This is what Ive found so far. Ive looked at Holdfast all in one setup, but front wheels need to come off so it is an option but not first prize . https://www.holdfast.co.za/products/220415-upright-bike-holder-all-in-one Ive also looked at the 3 bike top runner https://www.holdfast.co.za/products/top-runner-pro. This however may pose a challenge with mounting the entire rack to the trailer frame/ rack Anyone else here that has a solution for the Venter specific trailer setup ?. Ive attached a pic.
