Preasan Posted April 23, 2017 Author Posted April 23, 2017 Very cool looking bike!!! But with red being a gender "neutral" colour does it prefer the blue or pink food bowl?Depends where theres more food I rate... Well thats what I'd choose
kk6gan Posted April 23, 2017 Posted April 23, 2017 Scientifically proven that every red part on your bike increases speed and ability by at least 10%.Dang, nothing on my bike is red ☹️ Will i get the same effect if I ride with a red shirt?

Jehosefat Posted April 23, 2017 Posted April 23, 2017 Scientifically proven that every red part on your bike increases speed and ability by at least 10%. I put red bar tape on my bike and it didn't make a difference... Guess 10% of zero is still zero.
Dicky DQ Posted April 24, 2017 Posted April 24, 2017 Thanks for all the feedback guys. Ended up buying a Titan Expert. Got a really good price for it at Cycle Lab in fourways. Was basically the same price I was set on spending on the Trail. And the service was excellent. Super keen to ride Lekker, but where is the couch? Also maybe get them to shorten the lockout cable.
Preasan Posted April 24, 2017 Author Posted April 24, 2017 Lekker, but where is the couch? Also maybe get them to shorten the lockout cable.What is a couch? Will ask them to do so, will have to go back there today anyway.
worriesnot Posted April 24, 2017 Posted April 24, 2017 What is a couch? Will ask them to do so, will have to go back there today anyway. couch1kaʊtʃ/noun 1. a long upholstered piece of furniture for several people to sit on. "I sat in an armchair and they sat on the couch" It is Hub custom to take pictures of your new ride perched onto or against a couch

Preasan Posted April 24, 2017 Author Posted April 24, 2017 Nice starter bike . Congrats!!! I see it comes with tubeless ready tyres...hopefully you got them to do the conversion for you!Yeah they did the conversion for free But heres the funny part... so yesterday I took the bike out not realising that the rear tire would be low on air... I mean it was my second time riding it... As i take the bend the rim scrapes because the tire basically came of the rim... I am now more knowledgable and know that this is known as a Tire Burp but yesterday I was pissed because I break it on day 2 Well took the bike back to cycle lab today, and after adding sealant and pumping, they realised that it had a small tear in it...They replaced the tire with a new tubeless ready one and didn't charge me I was pretty impressed by the service because the tire is expensive.
Robbie Stewart Posted April 25, 2017 Posted April 25, 2017 Seatbag? Remember Preasan, not all advice is good advice [emoji6] HA...tell that to N1NO... and about bar-ends, go chat to Platt... [edit - spelling]

Nice, what tyre did they give you?
Mr lee Posted April 25, 2017 Posted April 25, 2017 oh....and always check your tyre pressures before riding, hence the need for a pump with a gauge
