  1. Hi there, wondering if anyone has any idea what this bike would be worth? It came from Germany. Cheers
  2. Thanks man good to hear from somebody that's actually done it. Appreciate the feedback
  3. Someone feels my pain. Cool man I might give it a go thanks
  4. Probably not allot, and maybe its mostly in my head, but it is what it is
  5. The issue isn't only feel of sidewall. Because of the smaller tyre size I am now ever so closer to the ground, meaning more pedal strikes etc
  6. Specialized Slaughter Grids. The bike came with Specialized Purgatory Grid 3.0 which I had to replace. Is it just a case of stock not available currently or is this a market trend of manufacturing less and less 3.0 tyres? I could get 29er wheels and run a 2.3" tyre, but I want to use the bike as it was intended and felt really good
  7. Thanks for all the replies but as stated above I'm running 2.8's already and it doesn't feel good. I need 3.0's
  8. Im running 2.8 at the moment, thought I would try it bcos I couldnt get 3.0's. It doesn't feel right
  9. As per the title, looking for 27.5 x 3.0 for my Stumpy 6Fattie. I've looked around google and called a couple shops but nobody seems to have stock.
  10. Ok sweet thanks guys, I'll take her in. Appreciate the help
  11. Hey @Mr Dampf here are 3 pics. It looks like the hanger might be a bit skew? I'm not an expert at setting up derailleurs so any help is appreciated https://ibb.co/bzg79h7https://ibb.co/1XXhX7qhttps://ibb.co/5sYVHDx
  12. I'm struggling to get my rear derailleur to shift 100%. I got a used Spez Stumpy with a Sram GX 11 speed. At first I noticed it wouldn't shift all the way to the smallest cog. After resetting everything and giving the H-Limit screw all the slack I could it still wouldn't reach the smallest cog. I loosened the shifter cable screw on the derailleur and noticed it then moved to the correct position. So I made the correct adjustments from there, and it now shifts correctly up until the biggest cog. I've played around with the L-limit screw and also given it the most amount of slack I can but it just wont sit on the big cog correctly. What I'm noticing is about HALF way up the groupset the shift doesn't move. I'm not sure if this is an adjustment I have wrong or something in the shifter that isn't causing enough tension on that specific shift. Any advice would be appreciated
