I am (tentatively) looking for a 90mm 5 minutes ago, Nico van Loggerenberg said: you and me both brother There were one or two over the past months that “expired” in classifieds on here for around 2-2.4k. Maybe google “shockstop stem bikehub” to get the expired ads come up and contact those guys and hear if they sold them. I bought some brakes of someone a while back that also had one for sale. https://bikehub.co.za/classifieds/item/stems/517203/redshift-shockstop-suspension-stem-90mm here’s one of those. Its not the guy i got some brakes from, he also had a 90mm. Mine had to be 100mm so bought it new. splat 1
Spinnekop Posted March 31, 2022 Posted March 31, 2022 On 3/27/2022 at 10:07 PM, iammjcooke@gmail.com said: Howzit All. Super inspiring thread! I have a Cannondale Topstone 2 that I bought last year. Took off the 2X Tiagra and put on a 1X GRX600 and changed the seat post and seat. I have two sets of wheels one running 32 Specialised Roubaix tubeless tyres for road riding and the other the Goodyear Ultimate Connector 40mm tubeless. I have the same 11-40 Slx cassette on both wheel sets and running a 40T in front. Been riding road a fair amount recently and I do seem to run out of top end gears on the fast flat sections. Usual riding gravel is out on Winelands Cycling club routes and around Somerset West/Paarl and wanting to expand to go into the Overberg Took the bike on some single track in Jonkershoek and joined a mtb ride over the mountain above Simonstown and it handles fantastically. On gravel and road super comfortable. I’ve had my eye on the Cannondale Supersox Evo SE, but then I take this one out for a ride and I think to myself why so I want to change?? anyway, thanks for the inspiration! Also had this bike. AMAZING ride and I miss the bike very much. MORNE , Eddy Gordo, Wayne pudding Mol and 1 other 4

What made you sell yours? grass greener on the other side - I’m struggling with that too! looks like this was a lekker setup! What handlebars are those?

Green is the new thing. I wonder if I sell it one day if I can say it is in "mint condition"? Edited March 31, 2022 by Spinnekop BuffsVintageBikes, peetwindhoek, Wayne pudding Mol and 2 others 4 1
