Give me a minute I'll see if I can find where I got my Contis on my FR bike from, think they did Michs cheap.All terrain cyclesSeems to be same price as CRC I'm afraid.

Joe Papasnap Maher Posted September 9, 2006 Report Share Posted September 9, 2006 Do you have to have them parts..i.e can we suggest alternatives...that are better than the parts you selected and..cheaper?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trials_pimp Posted September 10, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 10, 2006 you can try, but im pretty adamant on the Tyre.Ive run them for years, and love the fact you cant puncture them.But Im all ears for alternatives Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Posted September 11, 2006 Report Share Posted September 11, 2006 Why do you insist on buying that wank chain. Grant bought one, snapped it after a month, bought another, snapped that a week later.Get a KMC Kool chain, dunno which one, the numbers are confusing, but get it, same as what Bren, Scott and me run.

trials_pimp Posted September 11, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 11, 2006 well simon after running those chains for 7 years and not having problems with them, im sticking.My current chain is 2.5 years old and has never snapped.And ive heard of and seen loads of kools snapping, and I cant be assed with the bedding in time of the chain to suit the MTB tooth pitch.You cant fault a £8.99 chain that has those sorts of results.Any more suggestions?
