Wannabe Posted April 23, 2012 Posted April 23, 2012 That looks like a Raleigh M-Trax. Still got one hanging in my shed (was the bike I started cycling "seriously" with in 2001 ) Quickly upgraded to a Hansom that was a size or two too big.

Tuxstir Posted April 23, 2012 Author Posted April 23, 2012 It looks like you have the lock-out engaged? sorry me noob..how does one 'disengaged said lock-out'
ThePubSA Posted April 23, 2012 Posted April 23, 2012 sorry me noob..how does one 'disengaged said lock-out' You would have to buy a shock to disengage said lockout, that bar "stiffener" is put inplace when shock is removed to keep rear wheel in correct position.

Try a bit of Squirt on the pivot points. That stuff apparently cures anything from the clap to dandruff. Andro, EZRider, ThePubSA and 3 others 6
Stretch Posted April 23, 2012 Posted April 23, 2012 whats more interesting is that i can see the v-brake on the front but not on the back
Smolly Posted April 23, 2012 Posted April 23, 2012 whats more interesting is that i can see the v-brake on the front but not on the back Kamikaze stunt rider?
Mike Bike Posted April 23, 2012 Posted April 23, 2012 take 2 of the bolts out, and remove your shock, replace it with a spring from a motorbike..then you should be good to go

That stuff apparently cures anything from the clap to dandruff. Q20, fixes everything. now confused squirt of Q20? which ones better? Ummm... when did the 'shock' stop working? no exactly sure.. just noticed this morning, that its not working whats more interesting is that i can see the v-brake on the front but not on the back its for aerodynamics... makes me go faster having no back brake
