  1. R.I.P. Heart felt condolences to is family.
  2. Cost is 66. % of new derailleur!
  3. Broke my rear derailleur outer cage . Where can I find a part or is the only solution the 2/3 of complete derailleur replacement offered by SRAM ?
  4. Looking after the whole spruit route is everyone's responsibility and blaming deterioration of something as indestructible as a muddy jump lip on "XC" riders going down instead of up is another irrational idea. How did you get to your special one directional piece of jump heaven and was it also built by a certain genre of cyclist or do we all appreciate the spruit fairies? This is public property used by a bunch of people that enjoy the out doors and newly developed interesting lines and everyone has right to every piece of land doesn't matter what bicycle you ride.
  5. thanks. difficult to find them
  6. also thinkk the xx is great,but some tech problems. merida has direct mount fd and they only imported the s2 and not the s3 which is the correct fd for my frame, also the problem with tightening the crank with spacers.
  7. should have added,my crank is the Q166 with the furthest clearance as i understand and spacers either let the crank arms fall of when under torqued or it seizes up when appropriately torqued?
  8. hi, i recently had xx groupset fitted to 0.9 merida 2010 frame. what is the normal clearance between the large chainring ans the chainstay. its gxp bb and 42 large blade. my chainstay got some damage on this weekends race.
  9. go see your GP to refer you to an orthopod that specializes in lower limbs/knees. cycling is already the best physio for knees. as it,stated above,strengthens the thigh muscles that gives stability to your knee. if the doc wants to cut it open immediately. think again.that said,you have tried the conservative route for some time now.
  10. something to consider. take race kings ust 640-700g non-ust 560g xtra 1.5 cup of stans or eq 75gx2= 150g tubeless conversion or just the strip to seel non-ust 30gx2= 60g so 280g-210g = 70g!! wt saving
  11. any reason?
  12. thanks

    chains

    which chains are compatable with xx casette?
  14. need a shock on my second bike or an upgrade and swop for the racer. decent training kinda shock is between 3000-4000 something like dt xrc,magura i think a expensive and sensitive what is the opinion of manitou r7 mrd with milo? well priced on crc. and second hand shocks,no warranty and a risky buy. i think
  15. hi, pop lock/push lock what is the difference?
  16. or it could have been a snake i suppose. was on the very rocky clarens race
  17. it was a nail that stuck from the top of the tyre trough to the sidewall. plugged the top bit but just not getting that sidewall sealed. plug it?
  18. hi, my third ust tyre(in 3 months) with a side wall cut and obviuosly the lowest milage of the lot(all less than 200km), first 2 complete losses. the current tyre that iam trying to salvage has more of a puncture wound. really smallandd just above the rim. shouk]ld plugging it be attempted or should i let it go. sealant just not doing the job(oko). ideas?
  19. stay away from any anti-inflam before, during and after racing/training!aspirin included. If you need them you probably should be resting.
