T-Bob Posted May 15, 2017 Share These guys have some sharp ideas going there.I am intrigued by the 47tooth sprocket at the end of the second video. Could be a great upgrade to make all these Shimano 11-42 cassettes really functional. They'll take you all the way to 50t if you're game! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eddy Gordo Posted May 15, 2017 Share Why not just the opening of the steerer at the crown? Would be alot easier and less technical. DJR 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BaGearA Posted May 15, 2017 Share Why not just the opening of the steerer at the crown? Would be alot easier and less technical.Tool will have to be short to be able to work on XC bikes aswell , and will have to open up A lot to fit in tapered forks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gummibear Posted May 15, 2017 Share Ordered today but will only be dispatched on 22 May After ordering the Spectral Canyon has been having hassles with parts and frames and wait keeps getting long.Quite a popular bike at the moment. Decided to pay in a little and take a Neuron instead at 120mm and a great parts list..Still a good single track bike and i can use it in the offload duathlon races.

Steven Knoetze (sk27) Posted May 16, 2017 Share So the preload is actually in the mounting nut. Clever. Just be some sort of expanding collet systemLike a motorbike bar-end yes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A good call in my opinion - the Neuron is probably a better rounded bike for SA trails, and is kinda a do it all bike! gummibear 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, Gummi is quite a bit away from SA. Gummi, did you have a look at Radon Bikes or was your heart set on a Canyon? gummibear 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bizkit031 Posted May 16, 2017 Share Yeah unfortunately, no chain breaker. Not a deal breaker to me though, the benefit of having just the tools out weighs the missing breaker. I use the tools way more often than a breaker and I don't mind being "that guy" on the trail who ruins your Strava pb's to bum a chain breaker from riders by. Very pricey for it.
