As above, start opposite the valve…if tyres are new mount them on another set of wheels using tubes, inflate to maximum recommended pressure and leave overnight, then try again on the Stans.

Would make a decent 3x or 1x chainset whether 9 or 10 speed.

You’ll have no problem selling it.

Lighter rims accelerate and dececelerate faster than heavier rims, heavier rims hold their speed better just like a flywheel.

Assuming your running slightly lower pressures then perhaps you’ve also seen a reduction in rolling resistance.

Track temp 25, air temp 20, whats wrong with you?

Apparently around 20% of people will see little improvement with training. Watched a documentary on it the other night with that “trust me I’m a doctor” bloke.

@teethgrinder Yes.

It’s called the Hull.

Cameron can never look smug again.

although there was that British lad trying to have a go at Trump recently. would have been interesting if he succeeded.

Wouldn’t be surprised if he(Trump)had an accident.

the cut doesn’t HAVE to be perfect!

I like to file a nice chamfer on mine 8)

I’ll second D-lights

Yeah, will be fine, chainset makes no difference.

Yeah, 9 speed chainset with granny removed will be absolutely fine running 10 speed, assuming that’s what you mean.

Not sure what you mean by x9 mechs though.

Air won’t help with the damper side, however putting the lockout on and compressing them whilst tightening the nut might!

If you unscrewed the nuts to the end of the threads and then tapped them to release the lowers you may have distorted the threads.

Your rear mech doesn’t look like it’s been fitted correctly!

Looks like it should be sitting lower on the hanger.

But they also said beard. I don’t see how his need for anonymity would stretch that far!

Would take some doing if that instagram photo ( above) was taken only a week ago.

Part of a fishing rod rest?

Disc brake cleaner is crap, clean/re-face the disc with hot soapy water and some wet and dry, then re-bed them in.

You shouldn’t be able to pull the fork to extend it.

Im betting you’ve reattached the lowers and pumped them up whilst the fork was compressed, if you have you will have created a vacuum in the lower legs.

If this is the case they can be fixed by sliding a cable tie down each dust/oil seal, this will allow air into the lowers, you can also do the same by undoing the foot nuts and releasing the lowers and allowing air in that way, however forks MUST be at full extension when performing said task.

Experienced the same with a brand new Orange 5 frame, so it’s not just the budget brands. Wasn’t impressed but sorted it myself with a bit of wet and dry.

Hanging off back of bike does that, practice on pump track.

Overfilled, did you use bleeding blocks, wrong fluid?

I was told by Maxxis UK that Extra have them in stock, although they’re not listed on their site.

SLX BR-M7000

The forks have had a complete service, with every seal replaced.

Could be the positive is loosing pressure, causing an imbalance between + and -, would check pressures next time it happens to confirm/rule out.

A vacuum in the lowers is also a possibility, did you service them and reassemble with forks compressed? If so, with forks at full extension slide a cable tie down past the dust/ oil seal, this will allow air into the lowers and the pressure in them to equalise with atmospheric pressure.

Windows 7/ Edge 810 user here, works fine, try a different PC and or cable that you know works.

Had this on a few of the newer Shimano brakes, can often be resolved by doing a quick bleed of the lever, as per Shimano instructions

As far as riding goes there’s nothing there of interest (Sal).

Use what gears you want, it’s not good practice crossing over when you have a smaller ring, however, there are no rules.

Jockey wheels shouldn’t be coming into contact with anything, chain should be sized in the usual manner so as to prevent the above.

As above, it’s normal after a service.

Also I didn’t see you, means I didn’t look.

Not necessarily Mike, it’s been done before but worth a read if you’ve not seen it.

Wonder how this would pan out as a defence?

If they were new in 2015 then aren’t they still under warranty?

This, you know you get two years on Rockshox?

Did your mechanic fit an air spring service kit, or do a lower leg service and just replace dust/oil seals, service means different things to different people?

Sounds like a pressure imbalance between positive and negative chambers or a vacuum in the lowers.

Try old wheels with new cassette or new wheels with old cassette, narrow it down, process of elimination init.

This is a close as you’ll get but only has a capacity of 12, ideally you need a capacity of 14.

Tried Sram?

Don’t know what mech your running, any reason why wouldn’t this work?

Last time i spoke to him he was living in Winchester and had been working in Southampton. He has also done spells in Whistler.

Mmmm sounds Fishy to me.

MSE, Microsoft security essentials, for Windows 10 you don’t need anything, comes with it’s own and none are 100% effective.

Are all direct mount Shimano front mechs the same ‘drop’.

No, they are chainring size specific, what size rings are you running?

Air escaped into negative chamber , so when the build up gets sufficient going through the travel will hit the negative air pressure forcing the dust seal off.

If anything air would have escaped from the negative and into the lowers, its pressure in the lowers that blow the seals off.

Or, on a lighter note, it could just have become dislodged and just need pushing back down.

Doesn’t automatically mean you have an air leak.

Lowers need removing and seal refitting (pushing back down), if its beyond you just send them back.

Only worth going 10 speed if you want to take advatage of the 11-36 or greater cassettes.

Nowt wrong with 9 speed, and still plenty of quality components to still be had.
