La Bourde Posted September 1 Report Share Posted September 1 Really like the almost stealth look! Hope you figure out the tensioner solution soon. Maybe a TartyBikes RD Hybrid Tensioner? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't run a front disc for about 15 years, but I definitely prefer how quiet it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craigjames Posted September 19 Author Report Share Posted September 19 Sorted out a tensioner, I used a trialtech lower tensioner with an inspired mount and an adaptor mount I made up so it fits the original tensioner mounting holes. Not quite as tucked up and out of the way as I'd like. But it works and is much neater than what it was fitted with. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you should be really happy of what you have come with! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I may draw up a mount and get it machined up so that it does away with the inspired mounting bracket, just to slim things up a little more.

craigjames Posted October 5 Author Report Share Posted October 5 Well i built up my wheels, shiny new Hope Pro5 from Tarty Bikes. I need to test it out, but it seems nice and solid from the short bounce i've had on it. It's very quiet from previous Hope hubs that i've had. Now i've got an excuse to buy more gold Ti bolts, it's a real addiction folks. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was just about to say. Some gold Ti for the tensioner would finish it off 😁 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
