Hi All

Looking for a straight steerer fork for a 29" bike to replace a sheered fork for a young development rider.  

Thanks

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.

Why Rapide, if I may ask?

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

@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.
