casualjoe Posted November 15, 2007 Report Share Posted November 15, 2007 I found this stem from TUNE, specialists in ultra-light and ultra-strong bike bits...at a price,they do a few other bits including Carbon Fiber chainrings at http://www.tune.de/tune_gb/index.php?lang=...p;nr=1&new=Their BB's are worth a look too.Joe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomm Posted November 15, 2007 Report Share Posted November 15, 2007 They also do hubs which are Chris King money, but I doubt any of it would be suitable for trials. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Endohopper Posted November 15, 2007 Report Share Posted November 15, 2007 An Xc riding buddy of mine in Holland uses Tune Q.R skewers and he pretty much has to tie the bike down to prevent it from floating away at the slightest breeze .

casualjoe Posted November 16, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 16, 2007 (edited) The parts are supposed to be extremely strong yet so light I think if you just put a scratch in any of them it will be severely weakened. Good to see this level of engineering in a humble bike part though.Their stems look lush, I want one.

shovel Posted November 16, 2007 Report Share Posted November 16, 2007 (edited) my friend runs Tune hubs front and rear on his xc bike, just sent the rear wheel back as the freehub body has cracked in about 5 different places, second time it has done this they also use funky bearings on the rear hub which are specific to tune and cost a fair chunk to replace Edited November 16, 2007 by shovel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
