thanks for the advise guys will adjust the springs and give it a go got a nice tattoo from the teeth of the crankset on my right calf as a result of this problem yesterday. (:

hi Guys i need to enquire which is the best quick release MTB pedals out there. i currently have Shimano's on and tired of getting my foot stuck in the pedal and loosing my balance and ....... thud !!! Any advise Regards Jules

Thanks Noted and greatly appreciated.

thanks guys XTR shifters sourced here on the Hub SA are only the shifters will have to find compatible brake levers.

H Guys thanks for the heads up on the shifters Would i not be able to use Avid Elixir brakes on the bike ? Do i need to get a front derailer as well ? thanks

Hi bike is compatible for the conversion , no adapters required. Regards

hi Guys thanks for the quick replies. Just to note have a tubeless conversion on their already and they are disc friendly. Will leave rear derailer as is. Do i require a front derailer as well ? Have sourced XTR shifters and XT dual control brake levers. Are these two items compatible ?

Hi Guys Im converting my Mongoose V brake to a Hydraulic disc brake system and need good advice from fellow hubbers on what components to use during the build up. i have already sourced a few components but need to know what the complete list of parts that require changing. i have chatted to a few staff at the local bike shops and they have advise against the build as it is too costly for an old bike like what i currently ride. ( 2006 Mongoose Tyax XL ) i feel that building a bike over a period of 3-4 mths and getting the best components and then at a later stage purchasing a good frame fully suspension will be a worthy investment and a great exercise. The following components do not require to be changed : Hubs Rear Derailer ( although i wont mind changing it) Specs on the bike 9 speed X 3 Shimano Deore V Brake system and derailer Tru Activ crank Looking forward to the replies.
