i thought 1x10 but i bought a brand new 2-bash and sent it to santa. i might just run it but only use 1 ring and no front mech. save pissing around with it but ill be limited to a 42 ring for climbing. i could put the one on from ragley which is a 36 i guess.

Basically greater chain retention. The teeth are made so they sit snug between the links of the chain.

Narrow wide chainring will only save a dropped chain with a clutch mech tho so bare that in mind dude.

1x10 in future. i just wanna get it up and running as is first them mess. ill put 160s on at some point i guess to. elixrs on merlin are £90 a set. if i shift my bits ill get them. also got 203 rotors to fit when i get 2 mounts.

well nearly there. everything bar the slx brakes ive ordered and ive got to de sticker the wheels as they arent a matching pair. also got to connect and index gears but am sorting that tomorow. any comments welcome. seen a gold collar for the dropper for £10 but i cant see the under saddle lever in gold to match just to be a tart. i think gold brake mounts at some time might look trick to. do we have forum stickers in sight yet to represent lads.  |
