DieselnDust Posted February 18, 2019 Posted February 18, 2019 Now here is the funny part, this person was told that EVERYTHING is toast. aaaaa.jpg is that checker worn?
Quagga Posted February 18, 2019 Posted February 18, 2019 those bearings were broken apart during removal. As for the chain rings and cassette, I disagree that chainrings and chain should be replaced at the same time. You must work for a bike shop...I have not worn out a NW SRAM chainring yet. On my road biek I run 4 to 5 chains before the chainrings need replacing.On mtb currently not having to replace anything since if the chain doesn't wear then the chainring and cassette will be very low wear
dirtypot Posted February 18, 2019 Posted February 18, 2019 I have not worn out a NW SRAM chainring yet. On my road biek I run 4 to 5 chains before the chainrings need replacing. I don't know about the Sram rings, but definitely for the others (Csixx, Rapide, etc) this is something I have noticed. I've replaced a chain after 1000km thinking I'll swap chains and extend the life of everything and I got a crunchy chainring. That's what I'm basing my argument on.Road bikes are a totally different argument. I've done many thousands of kilometers on my road bike and the chainrings are still great.
Hairy Posted February 18, 2019 Posted February 18, 2019 Best way to tell would be to remove the whole drivetrain and send it to me to ride for a few months to test. Does this cassette and chainring need replacement ? 1.jpg 2.jpg Ohh and please check the chain also
Bbbbbbbb Posted February 19, 2019 Posted February 19, 2019 The broke the bearings while removing them, hence they wanted you to replace them a.jpegWell seems i wasn’t to “unreasonable” in my dis satisfaction with cycle lab. Doesn’t really make a difference as they got the couple of G’s out of me and lost me as a client. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Reg Lizard Posted February 19, 2019 Posted February 19, 2019 Chain checkers are soft and if you are not carefull you can damage them and then they will show that all chains are gonners. it is a very small part that needs to be comressed, or just slightly bent on the chain checker to show false negativeThe one I used was brand new
Reg Lizard Posted February 19, 2019 Posted February 19, 2019 is that checker worn?Maybe you need a checker to check the checker
Slowbee Posted February 19, 2019 Posted February 19, 2019 Maybe you need a checker to check the checker you can buy one at a Checkers in town.
DieselnDust Posted February 19, 2019 Posted February 19, 2019 Maybe you need a checker to check the checker you laugh but this is sorely needed. The ruler method is a good check the checker method. Where people fail with it is they end up using a nail to hold the chain at one end and forget to take the slop of the chain on the nail into account
DieselnDust Posted February 19, 2019 Posted February 19, 2019 you can buy one at a Checkers in town. are you saying take your Pick n Pay?
Slowbee Posted February 19, 2019 Posted February 19, 2019 are you saying take your Pick n Pay?but then you wont Spar your geld.
DieselnDust Posted February 19, 2019 Posted February 19, 2019 but then you wont Spar your geld. but its woolworths it
Cacey Posted February 19, 2019 Posted February 19, 2019 but its woolworths it come on be a Totalsport and show us your chain checker
Hairy Posted February 19, 2019 Posted February 19, 2019 what is the Truworths of changing your chain before end of wear vs rising it till it dies a horrid death.
