jcmeyerSS Posted June 26, 2013 Posted June 26, 2013 Hey Guys I'm busy building my own little SS project, and am thinking of bringing in a carbon 26 rigid fork from China, If I bring in 3 more forks it will make the price for each fork quite a bit cheaper R1150 each. carbon used is T600 and weight is 500g +- 20g and straight 1-1/8 steer so if anyone is interested in getting a fork with me send me a PM You should see if you can get them in Post mount rather than IS it looks a lot cleaner
brad890 Posted June 26, 2013 Posted June 26, 2013 You should see if you can get them in Post mount rather than IS it looks a lot cleaner I actually have fond them in Post Mount, and made with a better carbon from another supplier for about the same price. the also do 29" forks, so if anyone is looking for a rigid 29" they'll be R1500 each and the 26" still R1150 jcmeyerSS 1

Thug Posted June 26, 2013 Posted June 26, 2013 Have they got them in 29" with tapered headtube? That 29" fork pictured is tapered.

ricochet_rabbit Posted June 27, 2013 Posted June 27, 2013 (edited) I'm in the process of building a singlespeed (old Peugeot) and want to upgrade the bottom bracket. The bottom bracket I'm looking at using is this one: http://www.chainreac...x?ModelID=71369 I also hope to make use of my existing Shimano FC-1050 square tapered cranks. If you look at the pic you will see that the existing spindle takes a nut as opposed to a bolt to hold the crank on. The length of the spindle at the edge of the taper is approx 116mm. Should I go for a 115mm spindle or another length and will my cranks fit on this BB ? Edited June 27, 2013 by ricochet_rabbit
Caerus Posted June 27, 2013 Posted June 27, 2013 What are people prepared to pay for a custom chain rings?
peadar Posted June 27, 2013 Posted June 27, 2013 What are people prepared to pay for a custom chain rings?well lets see the chain rings.
Caerus Posted June 27, 2013 Posted June 27, 2013 well lets see the chain rings. We cut our first one today, but it is just something plain and boring, tomorrow will step up the customization of a ring. What would you pay for a bog standard off the shelf single speed 48 tooth front ring?
Ryanpmb Posted June 27, 2013 Posted June 27, 2013 What are people prepared to pay for a custom chain rings?How are these 'custom'? Different shapes etc may be of interest...
Caerus Posted June 27, 2013 Posted June 27, 2013 (edited) How are these 'custom'? Different shapes etc may be of interest... Something long the lines of this, this is just a pic from the net, but I'm sure you get the idea. Edited June 27, 2013 by SkinnySweatyMan
Ryanpmb Posted June 27, 2013 Posted June 27, 2013 Something long the lines of this, this is just a pic from the net, but I'm sure you get the idea. Nice. Prices on chain rings (mtb chain rings for SS or x1 applications) go from around R400 - R1000. This includes anodized ones and Wolf Components.

CRC for a BB that goes for R120 at the LBS? - Rather go past your LBS and pick up a BB, the 115 should be no problem, unless the cranks were extremely close to the chainstays.

BAMF_SS Posted June 28, 2013 Posted June 28, 2013 (edited) it cost me about R100 to cut a basic design including material if not less then that I would be interested, wouldn't mind paying R200 anodized of course... Edited June 28, 2013 by BAMF_SS Caerus 1
