MJ the Expat Posted July 26, 2016 Share You know what I am talking about? You need that one special component that will be like the cherry on top for your ride...but flippit, they are like a missing sock! Right now I am looking for a red 160mm rotor that will not brake (sic) the bank...I can get affordable 140, 180 and 203 in red. Aaaaand 160mm in red....for R1500 per rotor. I bought an affordable one from CRC with a few other bits earlier this year...but it squeals! Tsk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fisan Posted July 26, 2016 Share Eish. Know the feeling. I've been on the lookout for a silver (and/or black) seatpost clamp. Not QR. Not bulky. They do exist, but apparently not in SA-Land.

Capri Wheeler Posted July 27, 2016 Share I have a 2008 Raleigh LTD.The hangar broke, which costs at most R200. I couldn't find one that fits for a while, so that would have cost me a new frame. But then luckily Tony Impey Cycles came to teh rescue for R180. I was SO relieved. saved me about R18,820 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got one from E-Bay for an oldish Litespeed. Couple of hundred bucks, no hassle, better than the original. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
