  1. See, now youre just taking the piss.
  2. Not sure, ive not got a 19T cog here to measure, but it will be a bit less, probs around 530 or something. The front sprocket size has no effect upon the torque applied to the rear hub btw, its just the chain that provides the tension for the torque :o
  3. Hehe, yeah it was pretty obvious really! I guessed his idea, ive looked into it before, but it doesnt work for trials hubs.
  4. So you think, but if you had a clue, you'd realise that wasnt a bad estimation.
  5. Torque = Force x distance Torque = tension in chain x radius of sprocket Therefore: T = ~12750N x 0.045m = ~575Nm.
  6. Not any more, i'll thank you on behalf of Tom (Y) Cheers. 545 is hardly different though, and i'll err on the high side of that anyway, dont wanna eat concrete :P" Edit: Lee, i might as well be the bloody designer, i was less than 6% out :o
  7. Yes please (Y)" Id still like to know how the hub itself dictates how much torque is put through it though, enlighten me?
  8. We'll hes a tight b*****d for not letting Tom know as well then!
  9. No shit sherlock! Edit: How can the torque applied to the hub differ with the hub you use?!?! 'What I want to know is, what's the absolute maximum amount of torque (preferably in Nm, at the hub end) that Joe the average trials rider is likely to generate when he kicks the pedals?' The figure i did was for a 21T sprocket, having snapped a KMC Kool chain. Cant get much more than that! You had the figure about 10 minutes ago (Y)
  10. What im saying is, one person's opinion isnt correct. And i dont get why you dont tell Tom them, especially if its vastly different to the one i worked out.
  11. You wouldnt call that bad?!
  12. Someones just fooked up there (Y) Haha. Unless youre both at the same house? Maybe those figures are wrong, since the Hope proto hubs are poo?
  13. What 'figures' have you got then? And why not tell Tom in your original post? :o
  14. Tis if you can do some (very) simple maths!
  15. Heres a few of my pics (the mental ones, and the ones that came out ok). We were in Block 208 :o
  16. Yeah it is, but where is the torque applied FROM?
  17. Well the Alibongo is listed as a +20bb so, yeah, it will be high...
  18. Which brake lever? Ads
  19. Its often not possible to get a wheel straight with tensions as even as that though. I know id rather have a straight and strong wheel, than one with even tensions ^_^ I might get myself one of those dooberies to see how far 'out' my tensions are. I reckon a few percent is possible by hand (and ear). Mr. Smiths wheels are suppose to be good though, yeah, but doesnt he charge a packet?
  20. Max load a KMC Kool chain can take = 1300kg. Measure the diameter of a rear sprocket. Job done. Edit: Which comes to about 575Nm.
  21. Sounds good ^_^ Then i can get home on Sunday for revision ^_^
  22. Theres no time limit though, so..?
  23. Level 7? I had £25k. Maybe you get more money if your bridge is more sturdy in the level before or something, i dunno...
