So i could just do a strait rim swap from 717,s to 719,s Bp?

Whats on the 717,s please Bp

coatesy do you know the spoke length for pro2,s on 717,s as i,m looking to swap to 719,s myself.I take it i,ll need a full set of spokes ?.
Cheers

So they don,t last that long then.I,m really hard on shoes so they,ll not last with me.Thats those out the window.I,ll take a gander over on crc Nw..

Cheers Nw… 🙂

How do these size up as i,m usually a size 9
Tempted to buy a 9.5.

😉

Right.The answer is.On an 08 trance X the stock headset takes the same bearings as the hope but goes through bottom bearings as it has no seal.
Answer.Fit said hope crown race with built in rubber seal..Problem solved.. 😉

split one jim.
Can someone verify that its this one for a 1 1/8 semi intergrated please.Or are they all the same.. 😕

This any help..

Cheers all.been all over chrome and gmail settings to no joy.
Legend.your method just sens you into an incognito mode.. 🙂

No worries….

Tell you what.I,ll ring them for you as they know me and might get a better response from them.
I,ll email you the result Mosey. 😉

Ring this number on monday.My local LBS and Giant dealer.
01516060101
They should know if not they’ll ring giant for you.
I,m just after a better one than giant will probably recommend…

Hang on more measuring on the trance… 😉
Right if you measure from the bottom or top of the head tube you’ve got exactly 7.5 mm of flat tube before the diameter reduces..(steel engineering ruler).

I can,t see any way of reducing the depth of it as in the pic can you see the inside lip of about 1.5mm..If you take that off it,s still not enough and you would take the seat off where the bearing sits and it would be knackered…
Bit weird that iv,e got that sitting in the stand as well…
The Trance x one really is very narrow..

Just to throw a spanner in the works.In the bike stand i have a pace rc305 with the forks off and hope type 2 headset cups fitted.Just took the top bearing out and can,t see how you can lathe down the cup as the bearing sits right against the bottom of it.The insertion depth is bang on 10mm as well…
If i remember right i did look into fitting one of these in the trance but gave up..

Not one of these as i found out..

What a shame..
You need to find out the insertion depth of your new one first.Just had a quick measure from the outside and it looks to be 7-8mm.
Let me know if you find a good quality one Mosey. 😉

Anyone know of any top spec ones that will fit this frame.They need an insertion depth of about 10mm..

gears_suck …Superb.. 😆

No worries…

A while back when they had avid brakes on offer to buy either front or rear of various models.I bought a front CR and they matched one up for the rear for me that wasn’t even on there list for the same sale price of £50… Absolutely superb gang over there… 😉

Bad time of the month duirdh.. 😆
I_Ache.YGM.It costs a bit for both but should be well worth it.
Just email loco bud…

Iv,e only just got them back as you can see duirdh.???
Just having a laugh as well mate… 😕

I think the comp adjust knob must have been broken as well and he replaced it with this. 😉

Well used.Just clean…I think might have made a few changes as this now seems to click.

That’s the one.cheers.. 😉
O poo.Won’t fit either…

You’ve only gone and proved my wrong Nw.What it looks like has been done by the positions of the two holes is that he’s leverized (new word) a remote version then changer it back to remote.
Round one to you. 😉

I think it,s just a standard non remote i900 with an extra wee hole Nw.. 😉

To be honest bud i bought it like that.The guy i bought it off did a good job on it.Hole drilled and thread tapped on one side.It,s because the pivot point is different between the two.Didn,t you buy the red collar off him and send me down the seal.I,m sure it was you.??
That,s the rubber boot for them to stop some of the crud..
