  1. In a rush I guess? If not, our last order went in about a week ago, usually takes apporox 2-3 weeks to arrive...
  2. A 'lucky' combination of gear ratio and chain stretch.
  3. Sounds like the rim is bent, options: - New rim and keep it radial (10-15% stiffer laterally but less strong than 3x). - New spokes and build 3x, can probably get it a bit truer but it'll never be bob on.
  4. Given that it doesn't mention headset spacers, I thought that would be a clear enough sign that the height doesn't include headset spacers, but I shall try and come up with another way of putting it without making it even more confusing. Yes, you could use a 'taller' headset. Headset doesn't matter as long as the stack height is 135mm or over.
  5. If you want a warranty, no.
  6. Sorry guys, it seems it's broken itself over the weekend... Any orders placed that should have had the discount will of course get the 5% refunded, but we'll get straight on it in the morning.
  7. That was a Czar, and yes, I chopped the crap out of it, was fine.
  8. Just added you James, nice one.
  9. Cheers dude, I'll try and get online when I'm back home
  10. N00b alert... How do I do that? Cheers in advance!
  11. Thought it would be pretty clear from the photos, but will stick it on the 'to do' list. If you run a Z610 HX (which everyone should be ) then it clears fine - JUST!
  12. I think I may have mis-read the original post, I thought it was to be used with 2 sprockets (one of them being a 12t).
  13. In theory, yes. In reality, it wouldn't work unfortunately, as the chain will hit underside of the chainstay (assuming your other sprocket is bigger than 12T). There are combinations of frame/tensioner/sprocket sizes, etc. that work better than others, your best bet is to get stuck in and have a play. I would strongly recommend a 2 wheel tensioner though if you want to use 2 different rear sprockets.
  14. Yes, chain wrap. If you are running a 12t you will need 2 wheels.
  15. ... But if you want ultimate performance, don't buy one.
  16. Phone fail - meant rotors! If there is a leak it will be very obvious. You *can* clean rotors, but it doesn't work 100%. Disc brake cleaner is IPA.
  17. Check for leaks, if there are none, new pads and rotors. Anything but official hope pads are poo, Tories made by hope will work best too. Brake cleaner etc never works.
  18. Can also bunch the chain up one tooth to leave a little triangle sticking out, never slips then.
  19. Which frame and hub? Pics of setup?
  20. Good stuff - Samsung seem to be dece
  21. It's about 140mm IIRC.
  22. Ideally, yes, or a larger one, but some manufacturers don't do this. It won't crack, because it's under equal force both ways (3rd law) - and it's under compression. steel is vrey strong in compression as you know. Works in theory, works in practice, job done!
  23. Ups and downs. Maybe a 5 or 6 average. That said, I can't remember an 8, 9 or 10 year, so maybe I'm just a pessimist
