  1. I have 2 Peugoet Mirages from 1982. Solid build and decent components that have held up nicely. Feel free to PM me. Both bikes are ready to ride.
  2. Thanks guys. I unfortunately drove over mine so wanted to see what theyre going for new... And if they've been upgraded. I managed to get an almost new Bell 4forty On Friday Cheers
  3. Hi, Does anyone know who now sells ETO helmets in Cape Town? The last one I bought was from Sportsworld at Bloemendal but they don't seem to list them anymore. Would appreciate the help.
  4. Hi guys, almost at the end of this conversion, and I’ve hit a speed bump. I have an older x9 SRAM rear hub. The bike shop said I needed a XD driver to work with the 10-42 cassette. I bought one. Now they say the X9 hub and XD DRIVER I bought is compatible, and want to sell me a shimano 11-42 cassette which I don’t really want. How can I get this X9 hub and XD driver to work?
  5. Some feedback. Went to the shop this morning. Explained what I think happened to the owner. He said no problem, I must bring the bike in tomorrow and he will sort it out himself...meaning that whoever Mr Smarty pants was that did this isn’t touching it again.
  6. Thanks. All I changed was the chainring. Direct mount, 6mm offset, Oval, from RAPIDE. I made sure with Wayne that it’s the right one.
  7. Thanks Droo. I’ve been using that BB with a 2x10 GXP crank for almost 4 years with no spacers. Are the spacers needed purely for a 1x chainring? Because that’s all I changed. Everything else besides the DM 6mm offset chainring is as per my old setup.
  8. I’m a happy camper if it’s just this. I’ll go to another bike shop just now and see if they can sort it.
  9. I measured the frame section wear the Bb and crank go...which I’m assuming is the Bb shell, and it’s 68mm. Nou wat nou? Like I said...it’s never had spacers
  10. 3 in total. 2 non drive side 1 drive side
  11. To give more perspective, the only thing that changed was me taking off the 2x10 chain rings and shifter and mech, and replacing it with the single chain ring. All the components I’ve been running as is for close to 4 yrs
  12. The screw is broken clean out the crank arm. I actually didn’t think any spacers were needed.
  13. No it won’t...except now they can tighten that screw more than what it can handle I would imagine. , My understanding was also that no spacers were needed hence why I put it on like that...they then added the spacers by themselves for some reason.
