    Hi everyone I am looking for a working Shimano 11 Speed 105 ST-5800 roadshifter (right side). Please let me know if you have one. Thanks

    Tubeless setup is not a problem on this wheel. It is on the heavy side. The rim witdh is also quite wide- in line with modern rims, I think it's 30MM internal width. Freehub body is very easy to get from Omnico through your lbs. The hubs also use sealed bearings (only in the hub not the freehub), not cup and cone (with loose ball bearings) like the entry level hubs you get. For the price - I don't think you will find anything that beats it at this price point.

    Does the banned user's name on bikehub end with com?

    Get yourself a set of Shimano MT200 brakes. roughly the same price as this. The MT200 is very reliable and durable

    I bought a pair of shifters from him a while ago. Paid the amount and he took some time to drop it off at Pudo. I did get my parts eventually. Luckily I used Bikehub Pay on that deal

    If that spec sheet is correct than that is definitely a freewheel. Not a cassette I have personally dealt with a similar Talon and it also had a freewheel on
  12. Ruben101
    Don't t the talons have freewheels instead of cassettes?

    Did anyone notice that Alan is running a Csixx chainring? You can just about see the 104 logo from csixx on the chainring behind the power meter. If I remember correctly he was riding a 40t on the previous short track race

    Try putting a few drops of water on the sensor pads and see if that helps

    This chain is not compatible with road groupsets acording to shimano Firstly the model names it shows, are mtb groupsets only. Secondly, the small picture of the bike (under the "TEC") is a mtb. It will show a roadbike( bike with drop bars) if the chain is compatible for a roadbike This is a weird thing and its the first time I noticed this

    I would first check if the chain is directional or not. If there is writing on only one side of the chain, that side should be facing out/ towards you. Please post a picture of the front of the packaging of the chain. According to this, shimano says their hg-x chains are only for mtb. https://bike.shimano.com/en-UK/technologies/details/hg-x-chain.html

    Yes the GX is rivited and xo1 and xx1 is machined out of a single piece. Gx is also a lot heavier than xo1 and xx1
  19. Ruben101
    Does the level of cassette installed, have an influence on how long an xx1 chain last? Will an xx1 chain last as long on a GX cassette compared to an xx1 cassette?

    All the cypher carbon pro's I have seen, has all had a spoke or more break on that specific wheelset. Even met a guy who cracked a reynolds hub in half on a team edition cypher😂
  21. Ruben101
    Is this on a Titan Racing Cypher Carbon Pro?

    Cool idea, but The Archer D1X has been out for almost 7 years which does the exact same thing- only difference is that this NXS mounts directly to the Derailleur Cable end stop. The D1X mounts to the bottom of your chain stay and the cable /cable housing goes from there to the derailleur.
  23. Ruben101
    To answer your questions 1. Yes, you can still use the shimano crank, but you will need to go with an aftermarket chainring like csixx, wolftooth or absolute black in order for the sram t type chain to work. Shimano 12 spd chainrings only work with shimano 12spd hg chains. 2. If you are running the t type derailleur, you will need to fit the sram t type cassette with the xd freehub body I am with @Prince Albert Cycles. Keep the XT.
