SilverRider Posted January 14, 2015 Posted January 14, 2015 A Stans Notubes 26" conversion kit. Never worked on my rim/tyre combo. Hey, anyone wanna buy a Stans kit, without the yellow rim tape but with everything else?I'll take it off your hands if you still have it.
GlockG4 Posted January 14, 2015 Posted January 14, 2015 2 pairs of first ascent bibs. Would rather line a speedo with sandpaper.
Shepherd Posted January 14, 2015 Posted January 14, 2015 S### - I got one (ok, bought one) for xmas I dont know which one you bought... I bought the cheap 130 rand one over a year ago... best thing I ever bought... Cleans my chain very quick...You need to use a good de-greaser, cleans it awesome... MUCH faster than the old toothbrush and hand brush which takes forever... Dont give up yet

Dont give up yet Yup I have to agree, some neat clean green or something and it cleans quick quick, it doesn't replace a good parrafin cleaning once a month or so, but is much quicker inbetween those.
divernick Posted January 14, 2015 Posted January 14, 2015 Lemme think.... First Ascent Singletrack shorts - the padding is rubbish and the pocket zips broke right awaySpez bottle cage that couldn't hold a bottle (Salsa Stainless steel Nickless Cage for the win, see pic)http://www.charliethebikemonger.com/ekmps/shops/bikemonger/images/salsa-nickless-cage-414-p.jpgRyder lock-on grips that disintegrated after 5 rides. ESI's for the win.Topeak bike light - the bracket died on a bumpy road.Bryton HR straps - I can't get one to last more than a year
lokuthula Posted August 26, 2015 Posted August 26, 2015 Exchanged my second hand "Gumtree" aluminum Raleigh for a sleek carbon Specialized Amira....worst mistake ever! Needless to say I'm on the prowl again....perhaps I'll just go back to Raleigh! What was the issue? I'm looking to do exactly the same upgrade for my wife.
meloncholy01 Posted August 26, 2015 Posted August 26, 2015 A Mountainbike from Cajees. It was not the bike's fault, more the salesperson's incompetence selling the righ sized frame and my noobness in not knowing any better.Ha ha that makes two of us. Would rather take up running than buy from them again
GreatGusto Posted August 26, 2015 Posted August 26, 2015 conti ultra sport.png Worst road tyres EVER. Think they're made of candy floss and straw. Goedkoop koop is duur koop. +1 on the Conti Ultra Sport. It's like the glass and stone chips get sucked onto the rubber and just keep on going until they reach your tubes. I have two hanging the garage. Smoove is rubbish. Only use it on my kids bikes now. Wish it would get finished already.
morne101 Posted September 2, 2015 Posted September 2, 2015 I have a pair of those Olympic shoes. They are a bit heavy, but they're comfy for me and have lasted more than 3 years now. The soles don't have any grip on rocks though... my next pair of shoes must have nice grippy rubber soles.
Grey Hubs Posted September 3, 2015 Posted September 3, 2015 What was the issue? I'm looking to do exactly the same upgrade for my wife.Sounds like a good trade, as long as the wife doesn't mind going....
JimmyZee Posted September 7, 2015 Posted September 7, 2015 giro monaco gloves I have the same ones. Feels almost slimy on the palms after riding for an hour
Bonus Posted September 8, 2015 Posted September 8, 2015 I have the same ones. Feels almost slimy on the palms after riding for an hour That sounds grim!
