Hi All, does anyone have an Shimano Acera 8spd derailleur lying around? I am looking for a new one as the jockey wheels are completely worn making the chain jump everywhere. Even just the jockey wheels would be amazing.

Thanks,

Josh

Hi fellow Hubbers,

Does anyone have a single speed conversion lying around? I am looking at trying single speed on my Kona Honzo ST. Willing to pay.

Thanks,

Dale

OK, I will bite, when you say conversion do you mean the whole kit as in: 

Tensioner

Spacers

Cog

Single speed or BMX chain

Or are you just looking for one of the above mentioned?

I have some of that, do you know what ratio you want to run? 

I am currently running a 34T chainring, so probably a 18-20T cog, also have a 30/32T chainring.

I really hope someone can help

I need a 35mm stem with a 35mm clamp for a short period of time while we wait for stock to arrive. 

Anyone? Cash in exchange.

Does it need to be 35mm on both the bar and steerer side?

Think he means 35mm long with a 35mm bar clamp diameter

Hey gents, I'm still on the lookout for single speed spacers and cog, probably a 18T - 20T cog.

I have an 18 with a wide base you can have for free. 

The best thing I ever did re spacers was to buy some alu tube and cut it to measure. 1 spacer on either side. I then took an old 11 tooth and ground the teeth off into a bevelled edge for the end of the free body. 

The spacer kits at Rapide are cheap though
