The Z510 and 610 actually have a lower breaking load (1200kg) than a Kool (1300kg)... I've used both and not snapped either with an 18T up front (yet).. was annihilating Kools with a 16T front though, very much doubt a 510/610 would last on that size ring either.
That is certainly not what we said! The warranty coves manufacturing defect and material defects - constantly landing the chainstay on a wall/obstacle is clearly outside of this.
Anyway, back on topic, hope your frame gets replaced quickly adad
T6 = the heat treating process.
Why are the Trialtech bars expensive? Monty and Try-All both cost more, personally I think £49 is more than competitive!
That's normal for a 20" bike... as the rear end is so narrow, it's virtually impossible to line the sprockets up. I think mine are 12mm out of alignment with each other.
How old was the chain that broke?
Home made bashrings.
Tar/coke on your rim.
50mm CNC stems.
Tioga DH tyres with the side knobbles cut off to clear your 11" £99 'Ultimate Hardware' dual slalom frame.
Breaking an LX freehub every few weeks.
DCDs (with Union Jack if you were lucky!).
Full kevlar-covered seats in yellow or red.
Oh the fun we had...
