everything else gets this: Weldtite Cycle Bike Grease Gun + TF2 Grease 125ml New Chain Crank Chainwheel 5013863060093 | eBay
seems to have worked well enough for me so far
what other types are there?
how much is the Park tool one? Thats the same part but likely a lot more expensive
if you read the reviews for the XLC one I linked to from Tredz it says it'll fit Bosch gen 4 lockrings. plus I bought that same part and can confirm it fits the Bosch gen 4 locking
when I was searching for one a...
1. Orbea Wild FS
2.I've been a keen biker for many years, but due to a hip problem was unable to get out as much as I wanted without suffering afterwards. i'm still not really able to ride like I did without suffering pain, but the e bikes definitely help. If I didn't have e bikes then mountain...
1150km since March for me
I think I had done 1000km by around June but decided to buy and e-road bike In July which seems to have taken priority, as it hurts less to ride.
I'm also perplexed by all of these ultra low mileage e-bikes up for sale after 6 months, I guess people just don't know what...
I've just been playing about with it and it's great, seems so easy to navigate through the passes if you were planning a long ride on the road bike. heres a screenshot of a route below, and then you just hold CTRL key and spin it round and where the red lines disappear behind hills thats where...
yeah thats good, just tried it now and it's miles better. I have always used strava for mapping routes but used to just pull up the elavation tool at the bottom and repeatedly try routes to see which was the easiest, but now it seems obvious and much easier to route
from my experience you need...
i've had a carbon hardtail, 2 x carbon FS MTB's and the current carbon EMTB (Orbea Wild FS M20 with alu rear triangle)
also had 2 carbon road bikes, the latter one fitted with carbon seatpost, and carbon bars/stem
(the carbon integrated bars & stem came from china, and I made a few YT vids about...
In my opinion carbon seems to be hit and miss. so you might be right, and it may be stronger, if the person who laid it up has done it 100% correctly. but maybe they haven't, and in which case its weaker, and fails in some bizzare way!
I also don't think there a massive weight saving with...
I have a black van, so have a few of these touch up pens and find them to be very good for bike scratches too, just very easy to get the paint right into the scratch and then its almost invisible. no stripping, masking, painting sanding etc..
yes, first you need to accept the offer. then end the listing, and then re-list it.
if you select "Buy it now & good till cancelled" then as long as it sells in the first listing period (30 days) then you'll qualify for the offer.
another tip for people selling bike on ebay "if you don't want...
you have to be careful doing that now, theres a dedicated team of people who's job it is to search for high value items that get ended early and recoup the fees. eg, if a £2000 bike listing ends without being sold, the ebay team will search all the message on your account during the period the...
I don't have any advance info the offer has been like that for ages so i'm assuming it will be the same. sometimes you don't get an email, but if you somehow get the link you can activate the offer. I know this as I have more than one ebay account, and sometimes I get the offer sent to me by...
all shimano impossible, or just MT-520?
if you can get any Deore, SLX, XT, XTR, Zee, Saint they will work. Deore BR-M6120 looks exactly the same....
a friend told me recently he was struggling to find a lever for his and was told any shimano lever is interchangeable, so by that logic then all...
