    buy a 118 as goldenwonder suggested and space the rear cog to suit the chainline

    (assuming you’re using a wheel with a cassette freehub and not a screw on free-wheel)

    Should say in the manual for the cranks you’ve just bought. What are they? the link isn’t working for me

    Very funny, have you seen the one where the lift stops and the little girl, dressed ghostly, gets in through a secret panel while the lights are out…?

    That also gets good reactions…

    I had this, also had problems keeping the pump in line with the wheel bending the cores with push on ones, having more success with this…

    Yep, very well. We have really sandy soil, so nutrients drain out quickly, hence the monthly application. Not seen a single weed or any moss for years….

    Any recommendations?

    Run Time on all my bikes, never had a problem, +1 to the above but add that they have much better engagement in the mud than shimano

    You can get them in 2.25 for a bit more volume and exo casing for a bit of toughness, roll well for a mud tyre.

    on-one have some cheap, tried it out for the first time the other day, put an old (non-tubeless) crossmark onto a rim, inflated and turns out it has a big hole in it. On-one gunk sealed it straightaway, much to my surprise!

    BD, I misunderstood, I thought you made the tortilla wraps from chickpea flour…

    Nice recipe though

    Honda, mine gets abused… put away after last cut, not cleaned, drained or any of the above.

    Starts on the first pull on the first cut like clockwork… Would never have anything else…

    Genuine LOL at faustus…

    Hope for me, had shimano and avid, hope give the best feel and are well up to stopping duty and you can always get parts if you need them.

    Avid = Crap, Shimano seemed to be too off and on for me and they need more attention than hope.

    Also, try getting shimano spare parts for brakes…

    The knard is a behemoth in comparison to a 2.4 x-king on my dually rims

    29er flavour though..

    I’d get Dually rimsor the new stans hugo but I disagree that the 2.4’s give you much of the +

    Tyre choice is just the knard at the moment, (which is rather good fun in everything but mud)

    Tyre options are coming though, maxxis have the chronicle coming and vee rubber also have a new one but I can’t remember what it’s called. Surly should also start selling the dirt wizard soon also.

    Edit: Vee Rubber is the trax fatty I think.

    Sorry Cougar, you can have first dibs especially after you put me onto the Astra platinums… almost as sharp as feathers but smoother and twice the longevity…

    little bit of dilute fairy liquid on the beads help the tyre pop on if you are worried
