Hi I have prototyped a tool to remove the seal head inside the Iso Strut would anyone be interested in a tool like this? It is 3d printed and a local bike shop has tested the prototypes and they have been working well. Cheers Jean Design.mp4

HI My two cents, the lay out looks nice but my small criticism from using the site for a few hours now. 1. I can't seem to search under a specific discipline, yesterday there were 10 + Downhill bikes for sale, today the word downhill returns 2 adds for a 1 trance x and a glory, where did they go? 2. Same as above but regarding frames, its even worse I can't even filter by a specific style, so if i want a dual sus downhill or hard tail dirt jump bike I have to go through everything. 3. Having to constant click apply when I am at the bottom of a list, i want to click on mountain bike then frames then what ever and see the adds, there after I can filter and see what is available. 4. The search feature feels like I am on Gumtree, giving me everything under a specific word. 5.The page navigation is odd I miss the jump to specific page or go to the last of first page buttons. 6. I can't see how many pages there are in total. 7. Pictures to big 8. In short the old site was excellent and even newcomers could get around, the new site no, unless you know the industry and what to search and how its spelt good luck. On the face of it it looks nice but I preferred the older style was easy to navigate easy to jump and easy to find stuff, it feels like everything is blurred and together maybe I will get used to it, maybe not.

I have never encountered this before: When in the 36 and 24 combination and I attempt to shift up to the 38 the chain just rides the pick ups and doesn't shift up, When I compensate with the barrel adjuster and limit screws to compensate the chain falls to the outside when in the shifting from the front 24 to 38 and the rear cassette is on the 11. I have checked everything obvious, but are still open to suggestions. The set up is as follows a X7 2x10 front mech direct highmount on a Trance X frame, the previous set up was exactly the same except it was a conventional front der and frame set up and worked perfectly with out fail. Here are my last ditch ideas: The chain could be to short causing to much tension to shift up? The front mech could be bent open wider than it should? Let's hear what you guys think.

Contact Omnico, Many of the warranty frames are warehoused in Cape Town and eventually taken for scrap recycling. Contact them maybe they can help out or point you in the right direction.

Oddly enough I have had request at my work shop to remove the remote lockout and make it a manual. It is easy to go from non remote to remote, all you do is remove the non remote and install the remote the reverse is a more difficult option you remove the return spring and keep it safe (in case he want to go back) it is cheaper as no new damper is needed but the mech needs to know what he is doing. (Voids warranty as well)

It's one of these depending on travel etc http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Models.aspx?ModelID=54652 http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Models.aspx?ModelID=54651

Post a picture of the bolt, maybe something can be sourced at a local bolt shop

I have a 24l Compressor and it works just fine for tubeless can even fill up my cars tires as well

What about Boeshield t9 it's available from the Bicicletta fire sale Contact shamus or check their website: Bicicletta

The FIT is basically a self contained dampening system. Main differences are: It's lighter (Less Oil) It uses different oil which does cavitate as much The FIT cartridge ha rebound lockout, low speed compression and lockout force adjustment Read more Click me Click on the technology and then the FIT icon and it explains there

Hinges are available, contact your optom to order some for you

Contact Trek SA (Think it Just fun or something like that) they have supplied a local shop with an adaptor like that
