Boast about your latest purchases here...

Thanks for the reply, tossing up between the Sunrade and Shimano at the moment, Shimano M8000 @ R1000 on CRC at the moment. Not sure to have more even gearing or a tighter gearing with a big jump to granny

Depends on what riding you do but I spend a lot of time in big cogs spinning up so that I can descend. For me that XT gear spacing was not going to work with that 37-46 jump....the 36-40-46 on the Sunrace works very well. 

 

Shopping around a bit you can get the sunrace for roughly the same price that XT is going to cost after import duties and shipping. 

 

Oh, and then there's the 11-50 sunrace as well if you want to go that far.

Another option is the Box 2 11spd cassette. It also ranges from 11t to 46t, but with much more even jumps between gears.

Yeah good option as well. Exactly the same gear ratios amd weight as the sunrace so Comes down to the best price/deal between them.

A quick question, if I have a 10 speed cassette and gear selector, then the 11 speed cassette will not fit and the selector won't work either?

 

Keep the rubber on the gravel!

Nope, will not work. You will have to get an 11spd shifter and derailleur for it to work.

Proof that you can buy likes on Bikehub. Expensive, but still...

 

Yup, that was the plan. Only bought them for the likes 

 

   

[fanievb]

I will never enter a competition that is based on the number of likes or some other *** like that.

 

I have seen what people do by creating tons of fake accounts and liking/voting for their own stuff.

I know someone that took a week off work and spent that whole week creating gmail accounts and registering fake profiles to vote for something. Too bad he was beaten by another cheat.

 

same happened right here on the hub a few years back with a photo comp

Nice. Do they have versions that might keep your nuts dry off road?

No I'm in Joburg..... I avoid the road in the rain...
