Great, looks like I’m on for a good weekend of fettling. Off to Les Gets in 6 weeks so decided to strip the bike down and treat it to some parts, did the stripping last Saturday but turns out the rear wheel bearings are shot as are the frame bearings (Orange Alpine 160).
Everything bar my new 36t ring has arrived, so got to fit new bearings, rebuild the drivetrain with XTR rear mech, and a mix of SLX and a KMC chain, and fit my warranty replacement Reverb before a ride on Sunday. Oh and we have to do my Dad’s Intense Tracer 2 as well. Hopefully be no bearing issues there. I love fettling!!!!
