Heyooo, 

 

I'm looking for a pair of shin gaurds you might have lying around 

 

TIA

Yo!

I have a pair of shin guards in really good condition.....

The neoprene velcro on ones. I think 661 if I remember correctly. 

I saw them yesterday while cleaning out Harry Potter's bedroom

For my own tinkerings, does anyone have or know where I can perhaps get 1 or two old broken carbon bike frames?

I need a few main tubes for a project and it's easier to cut them from a frame than make them

I have a Spez frame that broke some time ago, I can see if I still have it

Thx for the reply. I got some costing from them, the price is a bit steep for the 56T. I should have said, does anyone have the 36T ratchets they want to get rid of after upgrading.

If you did a Ford Trailseeker then you should have a R300 voucher for them some but off. Or was that Spez stock only?

Try Cajees I have see them hanging on the back wall at Centurion branch. They might also have at other branches. I did see some at Solomons Woodmead some time back can't recall if it was for the Dragon but we're SIDI.
