but the frames look exactly the same ? what would a second hand coustellier frame be worth ???
-
i've recently bought a coustellier st blaise frame, and found a bike on internet for sale that look exactly the same, or almost. the other bike is a zoo pitbull can any one tell me the differences in frames, and which would be the better out of the two ,
-
stupidest thing i must have done is had rounded off the threads on my rear axle (just one side), so used PTFE tape to make the bolt grip a bit, so after riding for a while the wheel twisted so the tyre was rubbing on the frame , so stupidly i left it thinking the lugs/grip of the tyre would wear and stop catching, I DIDN'T IT ACTUALLY CUT THROUGH MY FRAME, it only took like a week to happen couldn't believe it
-
would no one recomend changing the whole assembly
-
i could but again the stem and bushes and worn also
-
does anyone know of any levers (arms or complete assembly) that are compatible with hs33 06 new style, as I'm getting sick of replacing tpa on them, I've been told i should get a Altek assembly but i can't find anywhere that sells them, so what should i use and where can i buy them
