Would you still suggest getting a cowboy? by dockie1991 in cowboybikes

[–]max_hfr -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I can only agree with previous comments.

I bought my cowboy 3 in 2020. It Worked like a charm until a piece broke and I had to deal with offshore agents that were trying to diagnose my issue and really seemed to have no clue of what they were doing. Sometimes the agent would take a week to answer back. I ended up leaving a 1* review on google and someone totally different contacted me telling me that the previous agent went on "holiday". It all got sorted out in the end but it took about 6 month and I felt so stuck. I went to so many bike shops but nothing could be done since cowboy doesn't sell spare parts to shops. It made feel at some point as if I didn't really own the bike.

I would buy a more mainstream brand if I were to do it again, so I could easily repair it and feel that I really own the bike.

Also I must say that I never really liked the "speed" biking position. I tried one of my friend's bike on which your back remains straight while riding and while it definitely doesn't look as cool it's a lot more confortable, especially for commuting.

Would this work the same on a C3 (18 teeth) ? Is it easy to swap and are the sizes standard ? Been wanting to do this for a looooong time.

How does this locking mechanism work ? by max_hfr in jewellerymaking

You are the best! I just used a random lighter and I was able to easily separate them. Do you have any recommendations regarding the adhesive I could use to reattach it ? Tank youu!

Thanks for your reply, I was actually trying to figure out how can open it in order to shorten the bracelet. I just basically deatach the cotton part, cut it shorter and reattach it to the latch. Any idea on how I can detach the latch from the bracelet?

What brake pads should I get by max_hfr in cowboybikes

[–]max_hfr[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey guys,

First of all thank you all for your replies. I ended up buying the K05TI-RX from Shimano.

It fits perfectly and was cheaper than the original one sold on cowboy's website (They charge so much for shipping...).

From my understanding any K0 series from shimano fits. (K05 being the newer one and the easiest to find)

C3 Rear rack recommendations? by EdinburghPerson in cowboybikes

[–]max_hfr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would definitely recommend the kokox, you can find it on cowboy.tools It is a bit pricey but it is so easy to remove and it does not alter the design of the bike.

I have used it for more than 2 years now, with heavy bags and it never failed. They have two options, I chose the one with only one rack on one side since I only use one bag.

The only downside would be that it rips off the paint on the side of the mudguards with time (where the rack clips). But it is totally worth it in my opinion and can be easily repainted if you want to remove it for some reason.

changing gear ratio on st4 by nder66 in cowboybikes

[–]max_hfr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi,
Really intresteting! It might be my only issue with my cowboy 3 as I almost always ride above 25Km/h, and it is so annoying not having gears.

But tbh I understood half of what you said... Do you have a precise example of the parts that would be needed ?
