    ^^^ yeah it is! Tried a few so far and not set on anything just yet!

    I will probably end up with a mass box of grips.

    Doesn’t have to be death grips, just looked interesting. Tried some Diety lockjaw and found them a bit thick for me around the thumb end so maybe a thinner grip is what I need.

    Roost looks good. I see they come in synthetic or suede too. Would guess the suede ones better for summer.

    Anyone running XR4/XR3 combo? Think I might need something with a bit of grip up front to make up for my lack of skill!

    Seen a new set of Barzo/Mezcal 2.35s for sale so it will probably be them or the Bonty combo.

    Wolfpack Cross/speed looks like another option.

    Sorry should have said. Mostly dry but won’t kill me if it rains!

    Older topic but how do people find the one ups? Think I read these are convex shape so they have a bulge.

    OneUp fitted. Looks very nice. Proper test ride over weekend. Totally was not the plan but also picked up set of hardly used carbon wheels too lol

    This is current clearance with 55mm. On the largest cog.

    Thanks all. Does the ‘FC’ on the FC-M7120 from biketart mean anything fitment wise?

    As for the chain line fitment. What’s the best way to check for clearance? It’s all alien to me! I can take photos if that helps to give an idea of clearance.

    Brand x has 90mm minimum insertion length so guessing 100mm shim will be fine?

    Shim looks like an option! Then I can save loads by getting brand x dropper.

    OneUp is coming in quite expensive now compared to the PNW. Although like the idea of being able to reduce play using OneUp oversized pins.

    Bumping an old thread! New bike needs 34.9 so the brand x is not an option this time.

    So think it’s loam (cheapest) or OneUp.

    Can get the ice tech RT86 ones for £28/£22.

    RT66 £24/£22.

    Thanks for all the feedback. I have ordered a set of Nukeproof Sam Hill pedals in silver. Wiggle have the silvers ones on offer for anyone after a set.

    Will keep bike as it it for now and maybe do a few more silver bits at some point.

    Can you get replacement fork logos made up? Thinking maybe silver ones might look better.

    Those silver ones look nice. Pretty decent price too.

    Been using cheap Nukeproof pedals on previous bikes with no issues so first thing is to get some of them.

    As suggested I will go for black. Did look at the grey Pedals as that’s the closest Nukeproof do to the silver but not sure.

    Black ones are super cheap at the mo – 18.99.

    Thanks @mashr. The post the bike comes with is a trans x so same post as brand x so that’s good to hear!

    Shimano one arrived today. Throw seems quite short but hopefully it will work ok! Bike arrives Friday so will see when it comes.

    How does the Shimano compare to Wolftooth? Anyone used both?

    XTR one was £29.06 delivered.

    Will get the SLX one. Was going to go Wolftooth but the adjustment on the Shimano looks better and matches everything else on the bars!

    I have just swapped from Barzo/Mezcal combo to Wolfpack trail/cross. Really pleased with them so far.

    Might be able to fit in a 170. Interesting that some seem to have air valves and some not.

    Newer vs old models maybe?

    jayx2a

    Ordered Brand X. By what I am reading the post is sealed so can’t adjust air pressure?

    Back on the hunt now. Tried the muc off one and couldn’t get a good fit.

    Never had a hooded jacket before. Do they stay out the way and not flap about when riding?

    GV500 and Royal Racing Matrix currently on offer.

    jayx2a

    Excellent. Don’t need the smaller insert length and only want 150 so will get one ordered.

    jayx2a

    Anyone tried the muc-off clothing? The jacket has 40% off. Looks to cover a lot of bases.

    jayx2a

    That royal racing one looks nice. Madison one too. But my last Madison one always had an issue with the zip getting caught in the lining and was always getting stuck in it lol

    Lots to look at! Will have a nose at the suggestions.

    Cheers all. Will just get some touch up on there at some point. I have the Pantone code so just need to find a decent place that mixes up Pantone colours!

    Trek used to sell it but seems out of stock now.

    Ordered some Kevlar ones. It was them or race matrix. Hopefully they are decent enough.

    jayx2a

    What’s the benefit of the Kevlar over the organic ones?

    jayx2a
    Free Member

    Ahh just checked and pretty much sure I got sent S5 and not S4. That would be why they are different.

    How do Uberbike compare? They have so many options I am not sure which ones are best. Sintered, Race Matrix etc.

    jayx2a

    Found the pads. Kevlar or organic for lighter all round all weather use?

    I’m trying to figure out which superstar ones fit the SLX 7100.

    Chart seems a bit out of date!

    Will have a nose at the Galfa ones.
