DownhillingKing Posted October 11, 2009 Author Posted October 11, 2009 Ja but Brad all the downhill oaks on this site know you have bikes and have parts and there is no harm in asking right?
Capricorn Posted October 11, 2009 Posted October 11, 2009 damn thats fricken overboard is int it easyer just to say sorry im only selling the whole bike I'll be honest (not justifying the rudeness)' date=' but some hubbers are pretty strange. You post a frame for sale' date=' with pics and all the details. Then someone e-mails you and asks if you have "XXX" wheel set? [img'']https://assets.bikehub.co.za/legacy_images/smilies/smiley5.gif[/img] One thing that I have noticed, is that hubbers shop for bargains... not for quality, not for what they need.... but purely for bargains. Maybe I'm wrong, maybe I'm generalising. But that is the feeling that I get. yes, that would be a bit irritating, especially after the 2nd call but in DHK's defence, he asked for the wheelset on the bike, not some random unrelated bit of kit.sometimes, we dont like to break up a set, but in this guys case, i'm pretty sure he can swing the bits and pieces without issue. Whole bike is obviously way less grief than shipping pieces and dealing with the whole bunch of western cape idiots
Brad@TheRiot Posted October 11, 2009 Posted October 11, 2009 is that your giant brad? its georgeous. where are you located? It is mine. It's bike I used to ride' date=' I have a Glory now.

Delivery nationwide can be arranged [img']https://assets.bikehub.co.za/legacy_images/smilies/smiley2.gif[/img]

Panik0703 Posted October 11, 2009 Posted October 11, 2009 hey brad, when you get your new giant 2010 would you sell your glory. if so for how much?

Brad@TheRiot Posted October 11, 2009 Posted October 11, 2009 hey brad' date=' when you get your new giant 2010 would you sell your glory. if so for how much?[/quote'] Yeah. It would be just the frame. Not too sure yet... probably around R5k.
Brad@TheRiot Posted October 11, 2009 Posted October 11, 2009 Im in fourways. just have to try and arrange funds. Cool. my details are on that page. Let me know
Panik0703 Posted October 11, 2009 Posted October 11, 2009 aren't you going to get a full 2010 glory? or just the frame set?
Brad@TheRiot Posted October 11, 2009 Posted October 11, 2009 aren't you going to get a full 2010 glory? or just the frame set? Just the frame. I have some decent parts on the Glory ATM, so it will be a nice build with what I have. Also, I like switching parts out fairly regularly anyways. So I'm not fussed about having the "stock" bike. Not a fan of the Shimano hubs either!Brad@TheRiot2009-10-11 13:51:26

Brad@TheRiot Posted October 12, 2009 Posted October 12, 2009 Holy Cr*p good price Brad! Yup! All I see in that bike is a pile of $$$. I'd rather have the cash in my c/c account than taking up space in my garage!
