Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted June 27, 2014 Share Have you taken into account removing the 3 (Shimano) or 4 (SRAM) biggest sprockets on the cassette? Not to mention that I don't think weight is the primary concern here... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swart Kat Posted June 27, 2014 Share turn your clutch on, on the rear mech, flip the silver switch towards on WHY? No issues of dropping chain! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spoke101 Posted June 27, 2014 Share WHY? No issues of dropping chain! So you don't have your chain slapping around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeFconOK Posted June 28, 2014 Share Oh yea. Hope retainer and T-Rex Shimano SLX SG, would just like to get the One Up Derailleur Cage, shift is good but not as good as it should be A 16T would be good as well but is not as bad as expected Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hairy Posted June 30, 2014 Share Ry scwheeeeeeeeet! Nou moet ek net gewig verloor en weer fiks word.........when you slap that clutch on to stop the chain from slapping, also take a black permanent marker to those black cranks for goodness sake Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sidmouth Posted July 2, 2014 Share Yes. It is necessary... Reason? If it weren't bolted together, every time you were in 1st, your sprocket would have a 1mm/2mm contact point on the free-hub body, versus the whole width of the cassette as a contact point if they were bolted together. What that means is that if it were unattached, it'd have a propensity to damage the freehub far quicker than if t were attached to the rest of the cassette due to the limited contact patch size. (or am I totally off the ball here, Flowta?)yip, well said Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sidmouth Posted July 2, 2014 Share There would be more pressure on the freebody (Same Force-Smaller contect area). But that is an issue with the free body. Some manufactures have included an Anti Bite Guard with their Free Bodies. Some free Bodies dont even wear from cassettes. PS. Look at the SRAM cassettes. They are not bolted together at all.Yes, this free hub is 4 month old I I run a normal 36 -11 sram with the last 4 big cogs bolted, I can only imagine what a 42 unbolted cog will do to a alloy free hub Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fisan Posted September 27, 2014 Share Just a question on maintenance: when you replace your 1x10 drivetrain, do you have to replace everything? Or do you keep the 42t and 16t cogs till they wear out individually? I am just asking because this will significantly increase the maintenance cost (though not nearly as much as the SRAM XX1!)

The MTBer Posted September 27, 2014 Share On the other hand, in Gauteng do you really need the 42t on the rear. I want to convert to 1x10 but I am running a 12-36 casset do you guys think a 36t will work on the crankset, I am riding a Xl 29er and not so many hills here but visiting CT a 32/34t pn the crankset will work? (I know there are many similar questions but I just want to know from someone who tested it) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shaper Posted September 27, 2014 Share I ride a 34t with 11-36 and is fine for all the riding I do in gauteng, spruit, NF, VG. Going 36t is dependent on your fitness Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
