JohanDiv Posted June 28, 2021 Share Got my 2017 Scott Spark RC Pro frame resprayed by Bogus Designs a few months back. Picked up a South Industries Wheelset second hand, GX AXS upgrade kit from Greasemonkey, and XX1 10-52 cassette and chain my sis just sneaked in from Germany at basically half price.. Now I just have to make a decision on what crankset to go with to complete the bike. MajG, Long Wheel Base, Scary Rider and 13 others 16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trevz Posted June 28, 2021 Share Some DIY repairs. The blue handle threaded rod stripped so was unable to clamp the frame. Builders Warehouse fix. 60 bucks for a meter of rod and some nuts & wing nuts, along with washers got it working again. Even got spare cuts of rod cause had to buy a meter of rod. I'm sure the OEM would have charged an arm and leg for a new clamp. ???? ParkTool stand will come one day when I'm big, for now this will do. ????

Nice, sometimes its more fun to fix things yourself for pennies than going back to the OEM just for the same part to fail again down the line.

A pool noodle works, but you can also use an old tube or a roadi handlebar grip on the bike rack. Grease_Monkey 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trevz Posted June 29, 2021 Share Parts for my hybrid bike conversion. Planning to go the drop bar route and create a gravel/touring rig. Finally found suitable levers for the long pull v-brakes....Just to find the bar end shifters. Looks like CRC will be the only way. Also a casual browse through Cash Converters and found a new 8 speed chain for R99 bucks. Weird item to find in Cash Converters. ????
