RRIBike Posted June 23, 2023 Share i fixed it temporarily. I manage to purchase the bigger spring (came out of those 200pc springs) but the very small one I could not find but manage with one i got from a pen. It works but I think the tension is too much on the spring so its a bit stiff unless it will eventually become softer. Thanks guys for your help and suggestions, i will continuously look for another spring or hopefully get a broken shifter to use the original springs ChrisF 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RobertWhitehead Posted June 28, 2023 Share I used to see an add of some folks looking for broken carbon frames, I have a broken front triangle for an Epic World cup edition with a 2017 Epic finisher sticker (nogal) if anyone wants to mount it against a wall or pull a wire through it to make a light or whatever Come to think about it, I also have some damaged carbon rims as well, this can be used for hoolas or something (the creative juices are flowing this morning) Edited June 28, 2023 by RobertWhitehead Skarramoesh Dexter-morgan and Barry 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am slightly confused, are you looking to swop the project bike for the stuff you mentioned? Kit etc? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes you assume correct, or parts for something used i need. Eg. Derick has got some MTB shoes to swop for the shifters, so the shifters are on hold for derick.👍 I am very flexible with the whole proposal thing.🙃 Edited June 30, 2023 by Eagle_i Eish my spelling is terrible...😆 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
