Very sexy

How? Its a multi day stage race for guys with stupid money that are willing to pay for bragging rights. I'd rather put that money down on my bond.

My opinion, 650b / 27.5" (or whatever) is way to close to a 26'er to even bother. The other night I was riding behind a bike and had to look and look and look and look and eventually had to ask if it was a 275er. It was. If its that hard to tell, its moer close to 26er. 26er for tight rides, 29er for tight rides if you can handle it and marathons. Thanks, I'll take my cheque now.

I have loved that brand and that sprayjob since I first saw it on a P-21 sometime around 1996.

About 375-380g. The Race and Non-Race rims weigh just about the same. The Race is just a bit fatter to allow more air volume in the tyre.

Comeback for who?

I rate any non GXP, external BB should work fine.

I always find it crazy how guys use XO, XX and XTR on like DH bikes. The **** costs so much money and one rock and its moertoe. Yeah, they are sponsored so guess that covers it. No-one except sponsored riders should be using those three deraileurs. Unless you work for goverment.

Was just about to ask how you managed to stuff that jump up. Landing fail.

I don't know if you can put a BB30 crankset into a bike that's made for GXP. The other way around you can do, ja. Myabe look at http://wheelsmfg.com/. They do all kinds of converters. If they don't have something for that, it can't be done.

For sure! You have to come around so that we can discuss our race strategy for Jansenville! I don't want to be caught napping when you attack!

That's what I have in there now, just a home made one. I think this is an option... http://wheelsmfg.com/bb-30-shims-shimano.html http://www.bikeradar.com/gallery/article/easy-fit-bb30-adapters-from-wheels-manufacturing-and-enduro--24534/1

But that adaper is *** expensive. That just puts me right back up to the plain BB30 crankset price bracket.

What does this need to be able to work in a BB30 frame? http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Models.aspx?ModelID=67199 This? http://enduroforkseals.com/id385.html Or is there something better? Would love to dump the anker BB30 adapter that's in there now.

Creak it does. Was looking forward to changing the BB with a nice ceramic one but then found out that the GXP BB needs a 24/26mm axle, aka, Shimano. No ceramic BB for me then.

Problem 1) Shimano don't make BB30 cranks. Problem 2) I use 180mm cranks. The only 180mm / 3 x 10 / BB30 crankset on earth is a SRAM X9 one from CRC @ R3200.

Its not the rings that make a crankset 10sp, its the cranks and how they space the rings. I think.

So my gears are starting to skip when I ride on bigring (I use 3x10) and halfway up the cassette (far from crosschaining). I know my bigring is getting a little worn out as I use it allot. My bike is a BB30 frame that's currently converted with (home made) adapters and bits of other old BB's to make the current Truvativ GXP Style crankset work. The crankset is a 2009 model that was meant for 9 speed. Not entirely sure, but I believe 9 speed cranksets to have chainrings that are sliiiiightly further spaced apart than with 10 speed. So, it can make for slightly delayed shifting. Speculating on that though. So the dilemma is this... Do I just replace the chainrings and carry on as is... ... Or dump the crankset and get a purpose built BB30 crankset? Getting the crankset will run about R2000 more expensive than just getting two chainrings. What's going to haunt me more, spending R2000 that's not entirely needed, or knowing that what I'm riding itsn't 100% right.

You should look at similar IP addressses, and matching passwords...
