@mboy, that chainring sets it off nicely! 😀

Mueller Hg80 is a good hinged one.

Cheers

Was using torque but been buying these recently

Shoo goo is a good adhesive as it stays flexible.

Work round wigan so will keep a look out.

Clockwise is best as you have fewer climbs that require walking!

Pull off the free hub again and remove the springs and ratchets, put the freehub back on with spacer and see if it locks up when tightened in the frame.
If it does make sure the seal on the hub is pushed in as far as it will go as it can cause the freewheel to bind.

As above check the spacer is not buried and the springs are not bent.

Bolt

Try shorter cranks!

You could try a two park expoy adhesive.

I repaired the bb insert in a carbon spark with a loctite expoy (can’t remember the number off hand) but it’s been good for two years.

Get In!

Well done Danny!

Very sad news, RIP.

Not been with switchbacks but going to ciclo-montana again next week (6th time)!
Something different every time.

It’s a Thumbs up from me!

Just Done the service on my rc pikes got the latest seal kit from here

http://www.gabelprofi.de/en/RockShox/Spare-Parts/Service-Kit-Full-PIKE-Solo-Air.html?listtype=search&searchparam=11.4018.027.003

The kit includes the new seal head, but they also sell it on its own.

Cheers

Very nice that Stu.

Just signed up.

Short and to the point, cheers

Do you have any in stock 150mm with 51mm offset?

Cheers for the replies.
Would you recommend a medium or large then at 5′ 9″

Cheers

Think your right Stace, looks exactly the same frame, what did you think of it?

Cheers

Am interested in this

But can’t seen to find any info or reviews on it!

Hi Stu,

Used the drilled wood method when I serviced my reverb recently which worked ok.
Cannondale do a couple of size clamps but depends what size the shaft is

Rides 189
Distance 3438 miles
Elevation 360,203 ft

Set my goal to average 30,000 ft a month climbing and had to go out this morning or complete it!

99% off road 😀

Happy new year!

Adverts have appeared on mine and cant find any way of turning them off!

Oh! Seems my Premier membership has lapsed!

That will explain it.

Local loop up to Darwen tower, the main trails have suffered from the last weeks rain!

At llandegla, there was a couple of trees down and was very windy this morning but fine otherwise.

Cheers

Xt m8000 are on offer at ribble cycles £103 for the pair with this weekend’s code.

There was an article in one of the latest mags, looks quite good, would go if I was in the area.

Started the year with a goal of averaging 30,000 ft a month over the year off road and currently on 321,000 so still on target. 😀

Only just over 3000 miles though.

What forks are you running?
A mate of mine has bent two sets of qr sids, one eventually snapped at the crown.
The first sign was the wheel alignment and rotor rubbing.

Try putting a cassette on to give you a bit more leverage.
It should just pull straight off.

I have repaired them by using a peice of sidewall cut from an old tyre glued in place.
A normal patch will stretch and push through the cut.

You could try carbon assembly paste.
If you tighten the clamp to much it will probably stop the post returning.

Not used switchbacks but can highly recommend ciclo-montana and in a similar area.

Not exactly a cafe but May’s shop in Hebden is always a welcome sight, out in the middle of nowhere it’s like Arkrights in open all hours!
As and they will go down to the kitchen and make you a brew plus always have cake for sale.
Great before the climb back over Gorple.

In theory but what length nipples did you put into the calculator?

Are the rim erd’s the same?

Shoe goo is good

Have repaired shoes and overshoes with it.

Just search for it on the bay.

Rode up and back from pities last sept, the decent from the summit is rocky but smooths out then becomes fire road.
It’s a very fast decent though so you’d need to be careful not to puncture.

I used the loctite 9466 to repair the loose bottom bracket insert on a scott spark, been OK for about 6 months now.

From bike 24

I ordered on 2nd of July despatched on 8th so it took 10 days to arrive in total

Cheers
