@nicolaisam

I might just do that
See ya Wednesday for some XC pain

Oh yes.. XC my favorite..NOT

You were flying at the Enduro

@orena45

Is a stunning bike.
You could speak to your local dealer about one… 😉

Cya Wednesday eve

Selling my Nicolai Ion 16 in large for £2250 and wwould give you enough spare to go to the Alps for 10 days.. 😉

Any bike shop with a Zyro/fisher acccount

Speak to Dave at RSF suspension in Plymouth

Been using CS Ti for a month, Amazing pedals
Just ordered another set to go on Hardtail

Have a hightower as well.
I remove shock bolt and grease it that way
i have started using marine grease tubes from ebay.
I use the Dualco grease gun, the small pointed nozzle fits into the grease nipple.

22mm x 8.0mm both ends i think
Maybe 21.8mm if genuine Rockshox ones

Been using this for a while now.
I empty half the container into another bottle(after shaking the hell out of it), Then top up original bottle with water..
Has been really good.
So £8 of it makes 2.5litres. 🙂

Have an Ohlins coil on my Hightower.. So much better than the Monarch air.

My Ab-Black oval ring went really noisy when using the 50t and 42t after about 500 miles.
Put the eagle chainring back on and was quiet.

Onza Ibex.. Was ok in the dry.. lethal on wet roots.. Be warned

Been using them for about a month.
Excellent pedals. Nice and easy to clip in
better shoe support than the xtr trails they replaced

NS Eccentric cromo..

Drilled through the lever and fitted an m3x25mm with a washer and nyloc.. Stainless

Had been crashed and had sheared the bolts off and couldnt get the old ones out

Been using the £20 Dakine for a while. I prefer them to my older TLD

Can be increased by buying a new air shaft

Some of the Trek wheels use a plastic rim strip and valve.
Th rim strip fits all the way across and up the sides, so probably need to get them.

Have a Large Primal plus i am about to sell
is boost rear

Would have thought that they would have tested 29 v 650b and found the 29 to be consistently faster or they would not be using them.

Try the Hope 12t ones
Also try greasing the bearings regularly as they do get a lot of mud and water on them

Try putting the wheel in the wrong way around.
if the gap stays the same as in the picture its the frame, if it swaps sides its the wheel.

Banshee Prime is an amazing bike.
They were doing the slack 29 years ago.

SC Hightower is close to that in XL

Use the Fenwicks Concentrate.. Makes about 11 litres for £10 and is amazing.

I have a large frame on order as well.
Looking forward to getting it.
Hoping to get a 170mm drop seatpost in it.

Wouldnt worry about a fast engagement rear hub as the gearbox has the slowest pick up of anything i have ridden

That’s the whole point – the gearbox pickup is one of the weak points. You want the hub to add as little as possible to it (remember the chainring isn’t attached directly to the cranks.)

will be such a small amount.. The gearbox is about 120 degree pickup..

Was horrible to pedal in gullys and on tech where you needed to ratchet the cranks..

Btw, if it hasn’t been said yet, slipping gears when you change your chain is caused by the cassette being also too worn.

Brand new cassette same time as chain. Sunrace 11-42

Could also be not enough chain engaging

Wouldnt worry about a fast engagement rear hub as the gearbox has the slowest pick up of anything i have ridden

I give ours to local Arty people and they re-cycle them…

If its Cane creek related Dave at TF is the man.

Have a G-16 on order for a customer and has been delayed twice.
Was due just before xmas, then wk 3, now saying end of next week.
Also has new 2017 rear end as Chainline,s picture.

I am still on my 3 year old Ion16 but fancy changing it to a G-16 frame at some point.
Really interested in the G-13 as i also have a Hightower and use that a lot. G-13 looks like a perfect Trail bike

Usually about £20/25 a wheel for build

That is a DH specific hub.
Designed to run 7 speed only.

All Focus dealers can get spares.

I have an Inline on my bike, Has had latest updated internals.
Seems after chatting to TF Tech guy that the updates sort it.
They have now released a new version that is even better, It is also available as an Update at TF, You can get your old shock updated to the full 2017 version for a small charge

In a cage at the end of my bed,Very rarely in the bed with us.
Is only a mini Daschund so dosent take up much room

Had Manflu for just over a week.
No chance i am going out in the bad weather..
Another weekend on the couch

5010

But sold this end of the summer.

Since then Hightower

squealer – Member

I own almost the exact same bike as that except mine has rock shox.

I can confirm it is a terrible bike to ride these days but does indeed look incredible in real life.

It’s also for sale at a price a lot less than that one.

That is stunning.

Email in profile if you wanna message me the price
