    If you need it I'm sure you could use it. Don't bust anything like I did on my fox forks. Expensive is not the word. 🙄

    thanks mikey but after much umming and aahhing im going to buy one then i can keep an eye on it too as im a bit weary of square taper fittings after wrecking a set before 😉

    i was told i couldnt overtighten a squre taper crank with an allen key and the nut would snap before anything . but no i wrecked the crank arm and the nut held fine ;-(

    now got to get to the shops tomorrow before i get stuck in the festival traffic by my house which is a mare

    NEver used one on Square taper BB's. Hard as you can usually worked, if it comes off the bolt is usually too long or worn out. Good luck.

    Good Mick, good. Yourself?

    Do those Boone rings last loads longer than standard alloy ones? IE, is it more cost effective to get the Ti ones in the long run?

    No, seriously, the planet is in mortal peril unless I get them. I NEED them.

    woooah… they're gorgeous! 8) Good luck finding a set though, I suspect they're rarer than a very rare thing…
