Thanks for the quick reply, I sent you a PM.

Hi, I need the end caps to convert a 142x12 DT Swiss Shimano HG rear hub to 135QR, would you be able to point me in a direction to someone that might have stock?

We went to Mankele in April, only the lower trails were open and after a discussion with management it did not sound like te upper trails would open soon due to farmers fencing their property and crime issues with illegal miners. We also did MTO in Witrivier, it was amazing and I was actually very impressed by the route markings.

Evobikes.co.za stocks them, not sure which one you are looking for

To spice up the discussion, should all the other riders that took the wrong turn on Kyalami get a DQ too?

The start time was taken after the neutral zone, thus not gun to mat.....they stated this in the preview video the week before the race and it reflects in my result too.

This is what happened to a lot of people, and I assume if they are going to be consistent they all should be disqualified like Emma was?

I do not see any obvious issues with the installation, although it looks as if the NDS crank is almost in contact with the bearing? Would it be possible to measure the width of your BB Shell? What frame is it?

As @JA-Q001 said, the setup is regulated by the NDS bearing and there should (in your build) be no spacers between the bearing cup and frame and there should never be any spacers between the bearing cup and crank arm. The dust seal does not count as a spacer. GXP come in 73mm and 68mm (and I assume your SRAM Red crank would be for 68mm), is there any chance that your bike's BB Shell width is more than 68mm? This could lead to your chainrings being pulled closer to the chainstay as there is a little bit of space between the drive side cup and crank arm. If all this space is taken when the BB Shell is too wide or spacers were used the bearings will not be able to turn as you will crush them. Can you maybe post some pictures?

Unfortunately my experience with them were far from satisfactory. Good to hear they helped you out, maybe a sign that things are getting better. Enjoy the Smurfy500.

Would have been nice if the road surface was better, I would definitely visit Tom more often. Best I could manage up there was a 2:58 when training, but the race got the best of me and in 2019 and I only managed a 3:22. Would love to have another go in a race this year.

Thanks for the replies, I will rather loop around through Fourways then.
