Ash-Kennard Posted November 10, 2005 Report Share Posted November 10, 2005 toby you fag the wellgos are really good, strong and grippy. lasted 1 1/2 years of constant abuse, lost 1 pin, it was the bearings that let them down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nmt_oli Posted November 11, 2005 Report Share Posted November 11, 2005 Get a steel front ring (otherwise it will get munched pretty quick, stock middleburn ones are ally, but still wear quick) Dmr v12s / v8's depending on budget. If your going to get welgo copies make sure you get the v12 copies, the v8 copies are rubbish. Depeding what gear ratio you like, between 15 and 18 tooth cog on the back, i run a surly SS cog with old cassette spacers. a fresh products tensioner is best, i have one and its great. Definately needed if you are running vertical dropouts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
