OK so this is just about perfect for this thread...

 

I bought a second hand road bike a while back and it came with one of those cateye cycle computers. I wasn't expecting it to be with the bike I bought and its really not fancy (like R250 or something)... but what can I say, I've grown fond of it. But the only problem is, the magnet that sits in the spokes is missing. It didn't come with the bike.  

 

I know that any magnet will do, but I'm not about to duct-tape a fridge magnet to my spokes. 

 

So there must be somebody out there with an old cateye magnet lying around... sitting in a bedside table next to that foreign currency left over from your last holiday, some defunct cellphone chargers and an odd number of cufflinks. 

 

Replacements cost R90, so:

  1. if you have one of these
  2. live less than R90 worth of petrol away from stellenbosch 
  3. are happy to give it away...

 

then please let me know. 

Yikes, I have a baggie full of them in my toolbox. Just a tad more than R90 worth of petrol from you though.

Hi there, if anyone has a 34T, 96bcd, narrow-wide chainring, I will gladly swap it for a 32T. It's for a DEORE crank.

 

P.S; I don't mind paying a few hundred bucks for it.

 

Regards Judah.

I have a XT 3x (9sp) front derailleur for you.  Recently took it off my daughters bike.  Used it with dual control brake levers, still using those unfortunately.  PM me if you interested in the derailleur.

 

Edit:  Also have a XT 9sp rear derailleur that I'm not going to use.

 

Thanks, but i already got sorted with Ridr.

Thanks a lot, that looks like a good price. I will definitely look into it.

Just make sure whether you need symetrical or assymetrical bolt pattern on that crank,  there were two.  Rapide can help with the latter but CSIXX for the former

Yes thanks, have seen that one. The bike cost R600. I don't want to pay that much for a fork.

 

 

You could use this... Staight Steerer, and 9mm QR... and still run a 26" in front

or this ... but i don't think you are actually allowed to buy it... it's the longest running advert
