Tell me about them. Reliable, easy to maintain etc:
I'm a Alfine hub gear convert already on my HT, want to put one of these on my FS.
I know they're pricey, but i'm worth it.
[b]opinions please........[/b]
Which FS? Some FS frames don't like Hammerschmidt due to chainline issues (in terms of it being like riding around in the granny ring).
Interested in this too.
[b][i]From what little I know[/i][/b] I think they're a heavy solution to a problem that's not actually much of a problem.
But I'm willing to be convinced otherwise.
it's an SX trail.... with international standard mounts 'n all.
Heavy i dont mind. I'm heavy, my bike's heavy, i can accept these things in my life.
Crap, fiddley, weak, and dis-functional i DO mind tho'
i rode a scott ransom with hammerschmidt.
was cool
will certainly be good on konas as they have a pivot point on the granny ring but older ones dont have iscg tabs 🙁
Would be awesome to be able to change gear when I'm stationary and dithering
It would be poo-stain on a Giant maestro, there is a lot of chain feedback in the little ring.
Don't know about an SX though
