been into cycletechnology today and they’ve got a second hand trek boone cyclocross bike in,size 58(dont know what that means ,but its too big for me )
The Hugo is most likely not the rim that you’ll want to use in this situation. That rim was designed as a fat bike specific rim with snow or sand riding in mind. It was not really intended for aggressive trail riding and would not hold up as well as some of our other options. You’ll probably be more interested in the Sentry, Baron, or Major which are meant specifically for Plus tires. Is there a particular tire width that you have in mind for putting on this new bike?
this is the reply from their tech guy
thanks for the replies,tazzy/rich it was your posts on facebook that i saw.
i’ll have to explain that these won’t be upto the task,and hopefully we can come to an understanding
Thanksvfor the replies,i called into the on one showroom earler,and had a look at the parkwood 27.5 and the 45650b,they also had a 456 evo as well,not sure what the difference is though.
Has anyone any pics of theirs ,or any other suggestions?
Thanks
Thanks for the offers of the frames,but ideally id be after a complete bike,as I’m a hopeless mechanic.
im thinking that if im happy with the 26er,I’ll sell the scale and get a new one in either 26 or 650b
I think the frames are a cannondale caad ,and i think the other is a pinnacle but not sure which.hes selling to make room for new bike for Christmas.
Use wouod be on/off road commute ,and may fancy a crack at cyclocross
thanks
Ive got a scott scale 940 and me mate got the 950,can fault them,and i think they are on sale at the minute. Had a clockwork and liked that ,also demoed a superfly,the superfly and scale are very similar fast xc,the clockwork is more relaxed trail bike.all good bikes
Thanks again for the replies,I’m going to try and pick some smaller chainring bolts up over the weekend.
how do i use the rear derailor as a doofer?
cheers
thanks for the replies,
just had a look at On-One,and you get a singlespeed kit with a cog and 2 spacers(16mm and 18mm i think) for £5.99
kmcS1 chain £2.99
doofer £9.99
if i do that and and reuse the middle chain ring,leaving the front derailor to act as chain guide.Will this be ok?
Cheers,i was worried,because i upped it to 40 from 18 psi,didnt want go over board.
said I’d never get one,but my mate bought me one as a thank you,and i couldn’t manage without it now, only had it 3 months
thanks for replies
