Yes. Should have some stuff for you next week in Jhb.

 

Amazing how things work out - one of the guys that works at my parent's complex was in an accident a while ago. He saw me on Wednesday morning and said he really wants to start riding again. Wednesday afternoon he had a new bike thanks to Chavo!

Amped this worked out the way it did. Thanks for facilitating the handover ridr :thumbup:

Anyone got a spare road bike rim stashed in the garage? 32H 700c

Rim only is good, but whole wheel works to.

 

Guys pushed a row of trolleys into my commuter bike rim and now I have a taco.

I'm looking for a set of Shimano Road pedals for my spare bike going onto the IDT.

Anyone got something lying around ?

 

Not shimano, but the look type. If you want.

How the hell do I attach a pic? Message me and I will send you my number and we can chat through whatsapp. I am too stupid for this thing.

 

I have road pedals. If you need it, message me.

That ring that holds the housing just slides off

 

However to make it manual (if you can find a lever) you'll also have to remove the internal spring that makes it kick back when you release the remote

i don't have that ring that slides off. I want one. 

 

True to Uni doffnes, I've done a dumb on this fork... i don't care / need to have remote lockout, but currently fork is sitting on locked, permanently, with that "thingamabob" LBS can hold it open for me, without having to replace a bunch of other stuff. ( anyone that makes any sense of that ... kudos  :clap:  )

Hey guys, need a road crank with standard shimano threaded bb. Condition doesnt matter too much as long as its mechanically sound. Obviously willing to pay, just not finding a cheap one on the ads at the moment.
