    What wheelsize are you looking for?

    XTR chainrings

    Flowta replied to gtr1's topic in Technical Q&A

    Then you just need to find any 39t 104mm BCD chainring.

    XTR chainrings

    Flowta replied to gtr1's topic in Technical Q&A

    What's the BCD of the XTR? You don't necessarily need to use an XTR/Shimano chainring

    You could buy all the parts separately, I doubt that will be released as a production spec

    It is a cheap way of adding a clutch derailleur to a 9 speed drivetrain, i.e not having to having to upgrade fully to 10 speed (derailleur, shifters & cassette) You can actually do it with ANY Shimano 10 speed MTB derailleur, but no real point unless you're adding a clutch or you just happen to have the stuff lying around

    9 or 10 speed shifter?
  7. Flowta
    No, the 9 speed SRAM shifter will work with the ZEE RD (with a small mod) as the ratios are close.

    So glad I entered this

    I would just get a 27.5 one provided the price is right.

    All the big manufacturers are still making 26" tyres, just the SA importers have got their heads up their asses about bringing them in. because they're so into 29ers

    Recently had a package from the UK which was sent via courier, value war R700. Dawn Wing phoned to ask if I wanted to use my own clearance agent or was ok for them to handle it, I agreed to let them handle it. When their invoice came it with a "documentation fee" of R180 and an "agency fee" of R180 (R360 total), plus they still added VAT on that. I complained and apparently it's a standard fee but they agreed to drop the "documentation fee".

    Ouch!!!

    Normal bombs are CO2 AFAIK. Nitrogen is an inert gas and makes up 78% of dry air

    It would probably need to be sent back to the Post Office depot where they have a foreign parcels counter. Depends on how much the amount is, it might not be worth it.
  18. Flowta
    Clothing attracts about a 40% (supposed to anyway) and then 14% VAT. Not sure if there was an invoice included with the parcel which they based the tax on or whether they took an average of normal cost and applied it. As Helpmytrap says, there may also be a handling fee attached to it (e.g. if they opened the package to inspect)

    Dropping the BB height could be a good thing depending on the current height. It will also slacken your headangle and seattube angle with the equivalent effect of putting a 20mm longer fork on the front

    +1 on the Rapide cogs Wayne is a good guy to deal with

    Haven't had a chance to mount them yet Haven't had much time to ride at all since I got them. Doesn't help that I've done my shoulder blade in on Friday, so I'm out from ANY sport for 3-4 weeks.

    My shock pump never leaves my pack

    I have a Roller Taper BB (HT2, GPX, etc. type) that I picked up to use for me next BB replacement. Then I got a new frame with Shimano Pressfit. Haven't had a chance to test it yet
