DarkHorseWheels, definitely worth dealing with rather than importing yourself.

What's happened to Collin?

Is the brand still around?

 

Didn't see many BS wheels or frames at Ironman.

Seen some of the Light Bicycle rims and they very well made.

Judging by the last for sale thread I saw from him in the classifieds it looked like he was leaving SA. Been a while since I saw any activity from him.

he's emigrated to dubai i think, still has shares in BSR i think.

 

BSR no operating out of The Handle Bar. Still very much in operation!

Anybody bought Chinese Carbon saddles? Feedback? Seriously thinking of getting one to test out.

I bought one about 3 years ago from dengfu and absolutely loved it.

 

If my wife didn't tell me to sell it then I would still be riding it.

FLYXII 26er, 15inch frame, 1 x 9, 10.3 kg

 

I completed this build for my son, the frame, seat post, and headset is from Flyxii. I was planning to build it as a 2 x 10 set up, but because the frame is so bulky around the BB area the front derailleur was too high on the frame to work probably. So I used some old parts and set it up as a 1 x 9 with a 32 front ring and 12 – 36 cassette.  I ordered most parts from the German online website bike-discount.de.

 

Attached are a few photos and a spec sheet to show what the cost will be for a similar build.

Anybody with a extra 50 mm carbon rim (rim only) please let me know. I busted my rear rim in a pothole and need to replace

Too lazy to read the gazillion page thread here.

 

I need some carbon MTB rims - wider AM rims. Anyone know where I can get some locally at a good price rather than trying to run the gamut of importing this through the Post Office.
