  1. My old faithful has now seen better days. Do they still make them or an equivalent? Any of you changed from an Arione to something else? I am looking for suggestions?
  2. Just asking if anybody else has had the same issue? My bike shifts prefectly between small and big chainring but when I want to trim the derailleur inwards when going to a larger cog on the sprocket it hardly moves, maybe a quarter of a mm . I had a look at another chaps bike this morning after a ride and his trims a good mm inwards . I have tried tensioning and de tensioning the barrel adjuster but it doesnt do anything. Could a worn shifter or even a bad cable housing cause this?
  3. Any shops stocking Orange sealant yet?
  4. Thats what I am also thinking, below 100mm is probably not ideal
  5. That will be done if its mine. I am just testing it first
  6. Have my eye on a good deal Large TCR Pro1 . I am 1.83m with an inseam on 855mm . I have ridden the bike and it feels good . Currently riding a 56cm Cervelo R3 (REACH IS 1CM SHORTER THAN GIANT) . Reason for post is I am wanting constructive criticism as to not buy it . I am 50/50 and on the fence?
  7. Yes works great and as of last night the app works on android tv boxes obtainable from the Google Play store
  8. Agree Pierre , I kept left , just be prepared for the concrete step-up out of the water . ps Langwater isnt as deep as it was last year
  9. Thanks . I tried installing the version one and it doesnt work . Lets see if you get an answer
  10. I havent tried the Live Tracking yet . I have a friend that has the previous version (firmware) maybe I must download that and try it ? Does the ally app version 1 not work on these ?
  11. Thanks for replying HDB. I found that the gps records the ride fine . Its just when it comes to uploading with bluetooth . The app sees the ride but it says " problem cant upload cant see the gps" or something like that
  12. Im really battling with mine (Lezyne Super GPS) . It just wont upload a ride via bluetooth . It does manually (which is a pain to do) . I bought this to make it easier , so far not very impressed . I do have the latest fimware
  13. Admittedly my fork isnt "creaking" its more of a ticking sound , which only really is noiticeable after about 2 hours on the bike , its not there in the beginning of the ride
  14. Thanks Stoke . I must reiterate that I never removed or attempted to remove the stanchions from the CSU , I just soaked some Loctite in there . I have read online that quite a few guys have tried this with success , I can only hope as my 5 year old fork isnt under warranty anymore
  15. Right .... so I did the Loctite 290 "heath robinson" fix . Bike still standing upside down allowing the loctite to further penetrate . I used a heat gun to heat up the crowns and then put a drop or 2 on either side of the stanchion , its very thin so runs in easily . While I was about it I also put some Loctite where the steerer tube joins the fork crown . Going to leave it for 24 hours then test it . Will report back
  16. Any news on how to solve this squeek ? My Fox fork has now also started doing this . I have read online that some guys use a Loctite remedy , just want to know if anybody has tried this with any success ?
  17. When will the "much luv's" be back in stock ?
  18. Thanks Iron appreciate your input
  19. I have taken my M8000 11 speed GS and fitted it to her 10 speed 11-42 Sunrace , 10 speed Shimano chain and SLX M670 shifter and it shifts perfectly , I cant see why the M7000 11 GS wont do the same (unless they are on a different pull ratio) ?
  20. Very strange as on the Shimano site it says that the M7000 10 SGS is 3 x 11 compatible http://bike.shimano.com/content/sac-bike/en/home/news-and-info/news/shimano-introduces-totally-redesigned-slx-m7000-mountain-compone.html
  21. Yeah thanks JXV. I have the GS M8000 rear derailleur . Will also get the M7000 GS rear for her bike as well .
  22. Just read in another forum where a chap has used an XTR M9000 rear derailleur with an older 10 speed XTR shifter and he says it works flawlessly (running 1 x 10). Food for thought http://forums.mtbr.com/drivetrain-shifters-derailleurs-cranks/will-11-speed-derailleur-work-10-speed-shifter-988005.html
  23. Thanks Koei , I am heading in that direction . Would just love to know if the system is "backwards compatible" . Shimano wont tell you as they want you to buy the newer stuff
