Why Rapide, if I may ask?

Hi all

I rounded the bleed screw on my Shimano brake lever. If anyone has a broken lever or spare screw lying around, please let me know.

They're cheap. Just looking for an inexpensive stem to test if the length will work. Any brand will do though...

Thay will be great! Cape Town?

@FA ok...I'm in JHB do not know if it will get to you via snail mail...and to courier it IMO would be costly for such a small thing that weighs approx 1g.

Just go to your lbs, they will have a box full of old parts somewhere in the corner.  Just last week, I scored a free rear derailleur bolt at my lbs.

Hi,

 

Looking for those rubber inserts for Thule Wingbars or suggestions for some alternative solution (silicon?).

I bought the bars on the Hub and they never had those rubbers and I reckon that is where most of the noise comes from when driving above 80km

 

Thanks,

Cheers!

Pushing my luck here but does anyone have a 2ndhand 36 or 38 narrow wide chainring they're like to part with for some cash? I'm building up a Gravel Clunker and going single up front.

You'll need to say what crank you have, and what BCD (bolt circle diameter) it uses. Sram direct? Shimano? 11 / 12 speed ?

Like my mtb has a Shimano round (symmetrical) 104mm BCD.
