Where can I get an armband like this? I'm also riding Attakwas...

Depends how long the race, or how intense the terrain. My set varies from basics - multitool, tube, quick link, tyre levers (mtb) to hardcore (Attakwas) - all of the above plus additional tubes, 2 dozen bombs, even a rear derailer, drop-out hangers , leatherman multi-tool (with pliers) and lastly brake pads I've used all of the above atleast once, and I have learnt my lesson....

Found one at a CNC manufacturer in Israel, called Pilo (Part No: D-198) Apparently the same drop-out is used on Santa Cruz - Stigmata (cross dirt bike) Set me back 29Euro but hey.... cant wait to put that frame back on the road

This is what everyone recommends I buy... I think otherwise... http://i969.photobucket.com/albums/ae176/crObar/KGrHqZiwE8MqY1R5OBPO-4YPJgQ60_12_zps532c7e19.jpg

I've had quotes done for that, and they tend to be expensive. I can trace it as far as I can see it on the frame, but have no clue what it looks like after that....

I've tried to see how this drop-out will work... a bloke in the UK recommended the same (I believe its a D-73) but judging by the frame shape I dont think this will fit... I have no idea why these e-bay sellers insist this fits this frame?

Hi Forum, Looks like I've taken ownership of a used Scattante R-650 road frame, my size, hardly used.... one thing though.... Previous owner has broken the drop-out, and I need to enquire a new one.... I've tried all bike shops around, E-bay, Pilo (drop-out manufacturer) and nobody seems to know what to sell me. Unfortunately I do not have the old drop-out to use a sample, and I have been quote a number of occassions to have it machined locally for around R1200-R2000... which is abit ridiculous If anyone has anymore info, pics, sketches, hand drawn pictures of the drop out please feel free to share, It's an awesome frame and I'd love to get it going but I've battled with this for quite some time....

if anyone wants to sell me their entry, do msg me

I have e-mailed the cycle shop in CT to see if they will do it, they have promised to carry the warantee should something go wrong. Awaiting reply...

I mean snap off like that...?? I understand there is material stress I may have just answered my own question then...

I'd like to switch to a 2x10 set-up but no budget for now.... ITB is indeed getting better, thx Ben!

Nope suprisingly not... I rode for 200m before I realised my rear derailer was making noise and something didn't quite feel alright...

Hey Forum, To make a long story short, too high of a gear and I stood up to try and pedal my way out. '12 XT 10-spd cassette gave up, completely ripping itself of the body. This occurred after about 3000km or riding, chain has been replaced fairly recently with an XTR You guys reckon Shimano will honor the warantee and replace the unit?

Ever tried USN Epic Pro? Worked for me during ultra and full marathons...

Nevermind that I did the 40km MTB event day before and got exact same medal.... don't feel bad I entered 2 events to many sponsored by Emperors Palace....
