I've re-installed a new olive and barb on my SRAM guide 4 times to try and stop a slow weep from between the compression nut and the hose. Thought it was because my line cut wasn't straight enough so bought a hydraulic hose cutter on ebay and did everything perfectly including putting some DOT...

My girlfriend is currently staying in a self serviced apartment in Sydney, she made the most stupidest and rookiest mistake of leaving all her spending money for the trip in her hotel room bag. About $5000 AUD. She went out around lunch time and came back a few hours later to find that someone...

I was caressing my bike today and noticed a small dent. It is on the strut between the chain stay and the seat stay. Does anyone have anything similar ? Very hard to notice but interested in if its a design flaw or manufacturing fault.

I am trying to find a cheap retailer for this tape preferably 2". But all the sites i come across including Ebay have priced it so highly, cheap in USA but the postage is quite ridiculous. Would really love some of this on my chain stay and downtube. My questions are is there a cheaper rubber...

Looking for someone that has managed to put a short cage on a norco sight, currently 1x10 with a 11 - 36t cassette, I know the zee is said to be able to handle this gear range but another variable is chain growth. My 2013 norco sight has about 40mm or 45 mm chain growth which seems quite alot to...

Did a quick oil change and pumped it up to 25 psi as per the instructions, but now the post extends and depresses beautifully except for the last 10 - 20mm of travel of the extension. It starts at a good pace but as soon as there is only 10 - 20mm left of travel to go it accelerates and makes a...

Hey guys, I'm looking for a new enduro/all mountain bike and have come across the trance SX. It seems perfect for my intentions but i can't figure out where the cost comes from. It's RRP is 4,000 but it has deore brakes, and an alright derailleur. The forks are 34 sure, but they are still...

I was on the way to school on a mini bus from rowing, and i get a phone call from an unknown number, i answered and a 30 or so year old voice goes "Mr (my surname) jump out the bus now, you have two chances" and hangs up. I'm 100% percent sure it wasn't anyone on the bus as i was looking at...

I recently stripped my whole bike, and when the time came to put the chain guide and sprocket/bash guard/ cranks back on, it was almost like the bash guard didn't fit inside the chain guide, it would hit the top part of the chain guide. You can adjust it but even at the highest point it still...

Well our family is going on holidays and we need a 7-day fish feeder capable of 150 gallons, most of them are only 10 - 15 gallon. Shall we just buy 10 of these? or is there something else we can do. It is a fresh water tank. Also im not exactly sure on the gallons but i did these measurements...
