Hey hubbers!

 

There is a young guy of 16 years whose parents work on a neighbouring farm to ours near Villiersdorp. He is really keen on mtb and we gave him a second hand mtb for his birthday last year. Its not the latest and greatest, but it enables him to ride decently.

 

Last week his front wheel buckled completely, so I am trying to find a replacement. So does anyone have a 29" rim brake front wheel that is looking for a home?

Hi All

 

Do any of you have a drive side SD endcap for a DT Swiss 350 (Boost) hub by any chance as mine is mangled and damaged.

 

I used to have a bag of off endcaps, but ended up giving them all away ... stooopid yes I know.

Hey guys, I'm looking for a cheap and nasty road bike front hub. It's doesn't even need to be working, just the right width, and QR. It's going to be part of an adjustable indoor trainer wheel stand I'm making.

 

Please drop me a PM if you have anything lying around. Shot

Hey Hubbers. I have some parts and books that I'm wanting to get rid of. I'm not wanting to split this up and would rather have someone who can pick this up in the Cape Town area (I'm in Pinelands) to take this off my hands. The pics should hopefully be self explanatory, but PM me if you have any questions or are keen on taking everything. I'll work on a first come first served basis here.

Hi! 

 

I have a Bell MIPS Youth helmet that I would like to give away. 
 

Note: I (I have a small head) fell on a single track a couple of weeks ago and the helmet has two tiny cracks on the side. This is a hazard and that is why I am not willing to ride with it anymore as we ride on various terrains and "safety first"... But I think this will be okay for a kid and not worth it to throw away.

 

At Sportmans: https://www.sportsmanswarehouse.co.za/product/bell-nomad-youth-mips-helmet/?gclid=Cj0KCQjwpdqDBhCSARIsAEUJ0hOjEIWEr_OVhZbKQYXaSKQK1flx2aid-wEjp6Hn5TstOu310BTRNW8aAv5KEALw_wcB

 

Collection/courier will be on your account, photos attached.
