I have heaps of spacers - good chance I'll have it if you can measure it up

Maxxis High Roller 29" tyre. 

The tyre has a plug in the top of the sidewall close to the tread.

Will work perfectly with tubes. 50% life still in it.

Yours to have

Looking for a scrap pedal from which I can extract the eggbeater cage.

Hit a rock at high speed - Crank-Brothers Candy - pedals still working well, so don't want to dump if I can avoid that.

I need a replacement cage -  Hoping someone has an old scrap pedal that I can get the cage assembly from ?

will DM you

I think a bit long but thanks. 

Hey, at least you have a long term option if nothing pans out ............ and a cycle from Tokai to Durbanville should just about be "warm up distance" for you on the bicycle

????????  this is all true. Maybe I should go and see the Munga winners come in. Go pitch my tent ⛺  at the finish. That could be a fun weekend. Not bad thinking Sir.

Surely you could apply to work as a "volunteer" and get free camping, and maybe food out of the deal too ....

Hello everyone, 

I have an 4cycle bike rack that is gathering dust in my garage. Unfortunately the car mount disappeared along with my car. 
If anyone can make use rack they are most welcome to it. The rack can hold three bikes.

Cheers

Didn't want to start a completely new thread for this so hope its OK posting here.

I recently bought a used 12sp XTR cassette.  The spacer between the 4th and 3rd last cog did unfortunately not come with it.

Apparently the 12sp XT and SLX cassettes use the same spacer just in a different position.

Also its not the same as the HG (11 spd) spacers since it need to fit on the microspline freehub body and is thinner than the old HG spacers.

Any chance someone have one of these for me?

Ok finally got my old cassette off the bike:

OD:  36.5mm

ID:  33mm

0.9 mm Thick

Can you please check if you maybe have one.  Anyone maybe chucking an old worn out 12 spd cassette, please let me know.
