You might need something that I might throw away:

Shimano 11spd rear mechs x 3 in various states of functionality.
The one XT's clutch is poked
Not sure what is wrong with the other, but LBS said it was knackered.
The XTR one is OK'ish, but a bit old and tired.

Before I bin them, perhaps someone wants them for parts.
There is some value here, but not much...

I will gladly take them off your hands. I will fiddle with them and either end up breaking them and binning them or get them sorted 😁

Asking here first.  Wanting to buy a front boost (15X110mm) 32 hole hub in good condition, preferably in black please.

Edit:  Plus the axle, if that’s available as well.

I have a Syncross Straight pull if you might be interested, will let it go for R300

Hey guys. I am looking for a 20h rim brake rear hub. Happy to pay if necessary. Cheers!

Hi. Looking for a rigid fork for a 29" monster cross build. (Disc brake)

Was looking at the 26" one advertised by Phillippe in the classifieds, but that one won't take a 29" wheel.

After checking bikehub daily and the LBS’s I got a good Novatec deal on eBay, thanks mate.

Thanks, I'll check up with him what he has got. Did a bunch of work and with chain, grip etc a couple months back. He wants to get into it as exercise and commute

I will be able to assist. I do think majority of my mechs are 10 speed but that won't be an issue.

Thanks Robert, let me know if you find one and we could maybe arrange to get it to CT, unless someone in CT has something.

I have 10spd mechs, but the lever ratio is different between 9 and 10

Am looking to buy a pressfit headset lower (with bearing), ec44 for tapered 1.5” steerer please?

JiA - I bought one of those a while back from Eagle Canyon cycles, they'll probably have a few more in stock. I think it was 250 ronts back then

Thanks mate, they’re a bit pricy around here so your reply is much appreciated.
