neonneon Posted May 28, 2009 Report Share Posted May 28, 2009 (edited) Hey I've been having a few problems with my bike.It was a neon, but as you probably know, they have some serious manufacturing problems...So eventually my chain managed to wear through my frame, causing a hole..I've solved that by building my T-Pro again, but now I'm facing problems with my bottom bracket which I have bent (Echo Internal ISIS) I'm not able to get the tool into the BB to tighten it because of the bend in the axel and freewheel (Tensile 18T) has got worse as I now can actually tension my chain without it cutting my frame in half along with my wheel with 28/32 spokes... EDIT: I have also f**ked my Headset, this also need replacing So, I've thought about my options.. and have found a wheel for sale. It's a Profile with a Titanium Driver laced to a Try-All rim.I've heard a few bad things about the Drivers breaking especially on the Ti models? (Weird because Ti is stronger?)I just basically wanted to ask if this is true and if anybody else have had similar problems...Obviously after getting this wheel I'd need a few other things, for example.. a sprocket...So i've made a list.. TrialTech Ti Bash £33http://tartybikes.co.uk/product.php?produc...p;category_id=1Try-All ISIS with Bolts £50http://tartybikes.co.uk/product.php?produc...p;category_id=2Trialtech Carbon £38.17http://tartybikes.co.uk/product.php?produc...category_id=104Sunline Logo £12.71http://tartybikes.co.uk/product.php?produc...category_id=133Onza Internal Headset £11.74http://tartybikes.co.uk/product.php?produc...;category_id=88Trialtech Sport Screw On £17.62http://tartybikes.co.uk/product.php?produc...;category_id=73KMC Z510 HX, 1/8''£15.66 http://tartybikes.co.uk/product.php?produc...p;category_id=7Delivery: £4.00Total: £184.07Would this lot run okay with my Profile, T-Pro and my Try-all cranks?Is there anything you wouldn't buy or change for whatever reason?Cheers,Charlie Edited May 28, 2009 by neonneon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LukasMcNeal Posted May 28, 2009 Report Share Posted May 28, 2009 It's the bearings that generally go in profiles so ask if therye ok before buying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neonneon Posted May 30, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 30, 2009 I'd know by the sound the hub makes while riding it, wouldn't I?Do you know of any problems with the Titanium Drivers? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
