Would suggest that the rear mech outer fitted to tight and no slack to allow for rear travel.

White drive side/silver non drive side obviously on a horizontal drop out.

Is it not the spanish basque country symbol?

Anyone over 12 would look a right **** on a folding scooter.

cheers ton just googled and it came up with the very advert, e mail sent.

@ 2pure guy, i have just had my cobolts returned after the free hub broke, am i right in thinking the new freehub fitted will sort out any further problems?
Oh and whats up with your web site?

sorry for thread hijack, carry on 🙂

so many experts, perhaps some of you guys should race against this guy and see how you get on against him with your advantage of 3 rings.

anyone can take a product and say its shite, the same way as a cockney **** always has a mate that could have bought something cheaper than what you paid. when the OP engineer mate produces a calliper bett er and at the same cost then he is in a position to criticise .

I have to have it like that it's the only way the car will fit in.

Car in the garage? you just lost any street cred!! 😆

get her a saddle with stirrups.

Any pictures available?

+1 here for the gaslow set

not only is the gas cheap as chips but you dont have to worry about disconnecting the bottles to change and also you can top up before you head out on a long trip so you can have two full bottles in stead of maybe half a bottle ( if you get what i mean)

A mate of mine just bought the scale 20 online and it was massive in fact his balls rested either side of the top tube when standing over it.

Not sure I would buy any carbon fork off ebay for safety.

Do you ride hard? or just xc? I've gone back to rigid steel so I don't have to watch my fork move around and creek.

Well i can assure you i dont pussy about on mine and i have never had reason to worry about my forks. Think you must read to many mags. Just ride 😀

My Mrs said theres a good chance one of them boxes shown was on its way to our house. dunno what she means by that 😉

Im using a pair on my 29er and they have taken some serious shit, great value me thinks.

You don't need a tensioner hanging down with an Alfine on a vertical dropout. Just get one of the eccentric bottom bracket kits being used by the single speed crowd. You may also need a halflink depending on your sprocket sizes.

Look here for them
and here for how to calculate number of links required

If in doubt talk to a single speeder.

If you are running on a full sus like the OP asked you will need a tensioner

andycs – Member

will hub gear work well with full suss frame?

It will with a sprung tensioner.

i had the same trouble with the post, they bent my seat post too getting it though the letter box 🙂

Depending what goggles you have you can get a liner for the lens, forget what ther called but but it is basically like double glazing and it works. try a motocross shop.

you can hardly call CRC shite for you making unrealistic demands. have you ever shipped a parcel to nepal from northern ireland? why you would expect a company to ship for free.

You're cursed Molly

knew i should have bought those Mavics hanging in the shop rob!

When you say its a common problem, is this common problem sorted out with an upgraded free hub, info online seems a bit scarce.

Thanks Jason, I got mine from winstanleys and i gave them a call today and was promised a call back but yet to receive it. I have since e mailed them so will see how we get on.

blow compressed air down the side from an air line, works for putting them back on also.

I cant believe just how easy and how well ghetto tubless works. I have even changed tyres without upsetting the ghettos tube.

Quite why anyone would pay upwards of 20 quid for stans tape it beyond me.

good point! never thought of that, a school boy error.

thanks for the advice.

Anybody?

+1 for xt mech

bargain.

the end2end has grown into a massive event in the Isle of Man and is used as a challenge for locals not necessarily into MTB I know their are a few regular locals a bit pissed of as they missed out getting an entry in this year.

I have just done the very same job this afternoon, swapped a silver dt 7.1 29er rim for a black x470,

am i the only one who thought someone was looking for a woofter? having said that i aint heard the word woofter for years.

I put my rotors in the dish washer.

that was my gripe, only ordered from them twice, first time was for some rims which in the end they couldnt supply and now a pair of xtr shifters.

next time i shall just stick to CRC or Merlin i think.

just got a pair of dt swiss from CRC. (rims only)

I normally run single speed 32/18 on my 29er but round these parts are very hilly and you get no rest when your out with a group so i took a punt and bought a built alfine wheel running it the same 32/18 set up.yes you have to back of for it change gear sometimes if under load but it aint that bad. I tend to just keep it in 4th and only use other gears on killer hills or fast road keeping up.

Recommended? yes.
