Recent project.

She's coming along nicely :-) I know I need to shorten the left brake hose.

As Myles said. Any LBS that stocks Giant. They don't keep many of them though......

I got it from Willams in Somerset West. It's got the Kashima DPS EVOL. Not the normal CTD

New project :-)

good to hear..... they are pretty much bomb proof.... I've got a set on my 29er HT too....... I've always heard people say " light, strong, cheap...... pick 2 of those options" I found that tge i23's can deliver all 3 options, until recently, unfortunately, the price has gone up.

I see the i23s are built and had their first ride. Nice. First opinions?

amazing. ..... but those roots in the first few KM..... and that long descent. ...... .

It was a bit treacherous with the downhills in the forest due to the rain the previous day. Some of those sections had to be walked. ...... But definitely worth the R38

39t are usually paired with 26t chainrings.

Isn't the maximum difference between chainrings 14teeth? I'm certain I read this somewhere.

Did you bed in the pads? This will clean the surfaces of any glazing and build up as well.
