Haha only joking Georgey boy yeah we'll see, wasn't really sure how the stem would turn out. Really really happy with the brakes though, they came out really good because they didn't need stripping before hand as they were silver. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
niconj Posted June 30, 2014 Report Share Posted June 30, 2014 (edited) Just re-read it. Does the 24'' really work work with a screw on sprocket on the front? Tarty states that it doesn't. Recommended for 18:14 gear ratio and front freewheel only, since a screw on front sprocket will generally contact the BB yoke Edited June 30, 2014 by niconj Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blake Posted June 30, 2014 Report Share Posted June 30, 2014 My one does! I asked them about it and basically got what adam said. It can not work for some retarded kids. If you have a rear 135mm freehub though your range of adjustment with the cassette spacers are generally enough to get stuff sorted out.
