Shocking gear, just get a triple
-
It looks more like a TT bike than hill climb. Would ride, but flat and fast
-
I'd just ignore it
-
I said it before, best deal going. The frame is lighter than other adventure bikes, the wheels are heavy but good quality and Apex 1 is solid, 11 speed and hydro.
Changed the wheels and cranks for some stuff of my previous all round disc biek and is well under 9kg, not bad for an XL bike with a basic groupset -
I got it working now. When you account for the BB it comes at about the same width than BB86, so I used a similar arrangement with the spacers.
The ZTTO bottom bracket is weird, couldn't find any compatible tool so I used a tube and some grips. Ordered one from China.
All in all, very light but fiddly. You need a 103mm spindle, so only BB86 compatible cranks like Force. I think it's possible to put a wider spindle on Red cranks, but can't confirm -
I've got SRAM Apex 1. I have a 30t in my box, I'd be surprised if it works but I'll give it a try
-
I kind of understand it. But in the end cannot do what I want, having a wheelset with 30t and another with 40t and swapping without much fiddle.
I'll keep my long cage and maybe I'll change to middle for cross season -
I'm having a real hard time to decide if I need mid cage(28 to 36 cassette) or long cage(36 to 42?).
Ideally I'd use a 42 chainring and have a big cassette on the off-road wheelset and a smaller one on the road (and cross race) wheelset -
And what kind of race is such you need to do skids?
They look cheap.
