It' doen't fit. It is a pressfit 30 BB on the crank and could be made to fit but the axle is to short to do that so stuck with either a frame or a XO crank. Ah well, you win some and lose some hey!!
You can't go wrong!! I can vouch for Magnus Gouws and his team. He is one of the top techs in the country. They also have a shop at Silverlakes (Silver Oaks centre) http://www.cycle-fix.co.za/ Very professional and seriously good prices. Best bike service I have had yet!!
Hi guys Just bought a SRAM XO 2x10 crank with what seems to be a bb30 bottom bracket. I ride a Ghost lector 7400 carbon with what seems to be a Shimano pressfit bb. Is there a way to make this work or have I bought the wrong crankset here? I know you get adapters etc. Any assistance will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks a mill guys. I will start out with the rings I currently have and will see how that goes. Otherwise step that up. Seems like 11-36 is the best option at the back. Looking to get the PG1050 / 70 for now I think. @PhilipV - I realised that I never use my granny anymore so what's the point hey! I will report back as soon as I have fought through some combinations and ridden a few k's. Thanks again for all the feedback!!
I have another bike with full XO 3x9 and must say that I have not had any troubles it seems to be the most bullet proof set on the market....in my opinion of course
Nice guys, thanks. This is on a 26" setup at the mo. The Crank I bought is currently 26/39 so will have to change that probably as I like my climbing Any specific cassette you would recommend that wont break the bank ... well ... too much as I just bought: XO Brakes XO Crank XO Rear Der XO Front Der So need to still get a decent chain, cassette and some rings.
Hi Guys n Gals Making the change to a full XO 2 x 10 setup and would like to know what experience you can share with regards to selection of chainring- and cassette sizes, chains etc. Anything you have learnt... I am currently riding a XT 3 x 10 setup: 44-32-22 11-34
IMHO you can't go much better on a "budget" than XO. I've been riding that for 4 years now and it is strong as anything and handles anything that some of the races including 3 years of Lord of the Chainrings (3 days of mud and guts) can throw at you. Unfortunately I have had no great experiences with Shimano. I'm sure they're good but I'm a SRAM devotee, It's never let me down!! I would however also like to try the new XX1 config. Main issue with the top end sets are that they are angled more towards team riders in their design and therefore might require more maintenance.
Yeah I hear you!!!! With regards to returning the vehicle in same condition: I also understand this and think it to be fair, my issue comes with how second hand is something? to quote animal farm : "All animals [parts] are equal [second hand] some are just more equal [second hand] than others My biggest issue is that when you do have a legit claim that you have to absolutely beg and mostly first become a "d##$" before anything is done. You never get phoned back EVER!! My current claim took a month and couple of days just to be finalised!!! I kept track: I phoned 18 times, they phoned ONCE!! Anyways I'm pissed at them and I am sure there are more reputable companies out there ... like the ones who gave me an overall better deal for 1000 bucks less a month!!!
Ever since I saw the first Danny Mcaskill video I have loved to do serious downhill single tracks on The Funeral by Band of Horses ... Inspires the **** out of me.....Unfortunately sometimes makes my enthusiasm pass my skill
Yip that's correct. Issue I have is that this was supposedly granted to keep premiums down ...... honestly??? Definitely not mine!!! I don't want to start something here but I have to get it out ... DIAL DIRECT IS F@#$%@@ING USELESS!! Phew feel better already!! Ombudsman Press release.pdf
Did you guys know that it is actually legal for insurance companies to fix your car with pirate and/or secondhand parts? I found this out with a shock yesterday!! Whats next secondhand diapers and knee replacements??
Can't agree with you more, in MTB it's much more about the terrain you're facing than the other riders. A tough stage will always be tough regardless of who is riding with you.
About two months ago i was riding the part next to the fence at fountains circle when I noticed store account cards lying on the trail. (This was early on a Sunday morning). I slowed down and started picking up the cards one by one. Eventually I picked up the whole wallet with credit cards etc in it. The cards came from two different people (probably hijacked at fountains circle and then the guys jumped the fence into the reserve. The only thing I could do was (as I saw a cyclelab card in the wallet) take it to Centurion cyclelab. They did not want to get the details and phone the person in question but I left it there with my phone number ... nothing so far but hopefully the peeps are ok!!
