Thank you, was going to ask why I would be looking for circlips if there was a lip for the bearing to 'stop' against 😕 .... since my life I haven't seen a BB30 with a circlip on both sides of each bearing, maar wat weet ek 😉

Yebo! Thanks so much, I must just make a plan to get out to you ... I'll be in contact. Spinnekop might just have and may well be round my area tomorrow so I'll let you know what happens 😎

Despite Schnavel's best attempts he only has one ... so if anyone has even just one please 🙏

You are a scholar and a gentleman! Thank you so much

Looking for just the BB30 snaprings (circlips) .... anyone maybe have some lying around? Unfortunately none of my normal suppliers have them, they do obviously have them as a set with the bearings but I already have a new set of bearings! I'm in Alberhoughton so somewhere around would be ideal .... TIA Ben

Hobby is when you buy a new bike. Passion is when you keep the old ones running 🤪

Are these still available? Could really use them ....

I'd be very interested to know the stats of how many ride their stuff to death and how many carefully analyze wear and replace timeously... not interested enough to create a poll though, I'm off to Hector Norris Park to go do something different on a bike for a change 😎

Sorry ou's but as a non "anorak" I'd rather take the Sheriff's advice and ride my stuff till it's dead .... but that's probably just me the "luddite" These "micro millimeter" discussions go over my head

Every now and then I read stuff from some hubbers and it reminds of that yellow 🤠 chap ... ek se maar net 😜

Ride with whoever invites you ... life's to short to be petty about things

There are easier ways to spend a Sunday morning, albeit with a lot of frustration going by the golfers f'ing and blinding ... but few as rewarding as a bike ride in this mornings perfect conditions! Blue skies for days on the Highveld 😎

The right tire choice for today, a cracker ride out 😃 A corner has certainly been turned 😎

No, no, not today 😎 After half an hour of fighting with the tubeless on the front wheel, messing sealant everywhere it actually stayed up for the ride! A 'no chain' ride really 👀 - if you know you know ... take them whenever they come, it's not often!

Got a little wet this morning ... I'm not really a coffee rider though 🤪

A photo in this case would help a lot ... it would depend very much where the chunk is out, how big it is and so on In my experience it has been 50/50 successful, if its on the braking surface or around the spoke area I would hang it on the wall as a decoration ... that's just my opinion though perhaps the carbon experts can shed more light A photo would definitely help though!

As much as some may despise this kind of lifestyle bloody hell I'd do it in a heartbeat if it was an option!

The weather has been rather atrocious so did my first PROPER indoor trainer ride today for a very long time putting in some effort ... 'dead tired' but happy 😊

I can't keep up with the deliveries, apologies 😜

I do use oval rings and have my own opinion of the benefits I have felt, be those perceived or real .... I am also aware that there are some strong opinions about them on this here forum and they are not all positive 🤪

My last 2c on this subject .... With a 1x whatever chainring you decide it'll be a compromise. Takes hat and coat ....

Must be getting better ... beat all the commuters except one I couldn't drop. We stopped for a chat by the flooded Bridge, some crazy flooding on the Klipriver round Alberhoughton "Water is not a solid wall, it will not stop you. But water always goes where it wants to go, and nothing in the end can stand against it. Water is patient."

To my knowledge boost 3mm, non boost 6mm ... then again no idea what '0mm' is for ... luckily there are cleverer okes on here than me that'll soon help om sure 😎
