Jigghead Posted February 5, 2014 Posted February 5, 2014 Worst thing I ever got was when I first started, I bought one of those water meters for my Camelbak to tell me how much I've consumed. Problem is the thing rotates with the bump and I ended up "drinking" 15l from a 3l hydration pack!
Guest Posted February 5, 2014 Posted February 5, 2014 Any bike computer since starting to ride MTB. Especially the wirelss Sigma. POS!!!agree with this. I had the same rubbish. It lost signal with the transmitter continuously and would give me a reading of 5k/h down proper sphincter clenching hills. It eventually broke when my hammer fell on it in the garage so I could tell the missus I need a gps.

It eventually broke when my hammer fell on it in the garage so I could tell the missus I need a gps. I bought a Sigma wireless computer and attached it to my DH bike for an Alps trip (to see how far we rode each day). The one section between Pleney and Les Gets has a steep, rutted, bumpy run where Peach and myself clocked in the region of 70kph (not smart in hind sight). After 2 or so runs like that my bike computer stopped working. I think it had its brains rattled. I run a GPS watch now, so shouldn't have the same issue again.
Robrider Posted February 5, 2014 Posted February 5, 2014 This particular seat post mount.  Used to mount extra bottle cage on the seat post of my dualie... First one broke straight off after few rides. Got a replacement from bikeshop... Second one did exactly same thing. Maybe it will work for road bikes on the smooth stuff wouldn't recommend it for MTB. Mine lasted 10km
BlinkFan Posted February 5, 2014 Posted February 5, 2014 Was in a bind and had to buy a CO2 adapter last minute. Cost R250 and never worked properly. The airflow was super slow! http://www.leisurelakesbikes.com/content/images/thumbs/0011146_specialized_air_tool_cpro2_microblast_pump_0.jpeg

Wyatt Earp Posted February 5, 2014 Posted February 5, 2014 did this thread just become a supplement vs natural food vs USN is crap thread?! USN is always in the firing line, problem is nobody can conclusively put on paper as to what makes it so crap, they must have tennis elbow because I see a lot of "shoot from the hip" comments.

Muzzarati Posted February 5, 2014 Posted February 5, 2014 E13 LG1+ Chain GuideWas a mission to install and was fubar within 2 month of riding. Â Gamut is a far better solution.
Tumbleweed Posted February 5, 2014 Posted February 5, 2014 I sometimes buy those USN protein bars at the till at my local Spar. Does that makes me a bad person? Or was I just a bad person to start off with?
