Never seen this before. Why would the piston crack?
Warranty replacement on its way from wiggle.

I used to switch between novatec and hope pro 2. One set with cheapo avid rotors, the other with ice-techs. Worked without any issues.
Give it a go, worst that can happen you'll have to adjust your calipers.

For my next project. 1991 kona cinder cone preserved in thick coat of tat and rattle can. It's going to armourtex for sandblasting and clear coating as soon as I get the bb out. Should make for a nice utility bike with 8 speed lx, racks, and fenders. Or maybe a single speed rat with a coaster brake?

Kcnc bolts I had in my spares box. I'd offer them for a fiver but they are not pink, they're deep red.
Check amazon, ebay, and superstar components. I'm sure that somewhere in China someone is knocking pink bolts at full steam.

£300 posted. Need to raise funds for kona big honzo build.

You hate it now. Wait till I put these on.

Clunker 1.0

Won't work. From some reason they don't mix well when dry. You just end up with layers of booster and huel on top of each other.

It fits me well so it was comfy. Plus tires make it a point and shoot bike. You just roll over stuff not even noticing it most of the time. It climbs well enough. I walked only 3 or 4 times at the far end. Most likely cos I was absolutely spent.
Next time I'm adding a sus fork. My wrists, elbows, and shoulders took quite a beating that day.

That biek has been places!
Why is bikepacking shit?

They should go into bad traders thread. Bloody useless.

Placed the order two weeks ago, no shipment notification received. Chased them last night about it. They don't have what I ordered in stock, they will have it in two weeks. Asked for a refund. Won't be shopping with them again purely due to lack of communication.

that person has eaten huel so much they don't remember what food tastes like

That'd be me. When can I collect?

You're right. Must have been a shit set up in the first place. Wouldn't be the first time.
After reading your comments I went back and checked the size of old and new inserts. Thankfully both are 2.1mm. There's no mix and match here. More luck than sense.
I've also checked shimano product page. As long as you get sm-bh90-xxx hose it'll work just fine with deore. For higher models you have to check the last 3 letters in the hose code. They specify the banjo, and banjo bolt type. Deore have straight connectors on both ends so you can just chop off the bonjo.
I've learned more about disc brakes today than I intend. Thanks.

The bore size difference is 0.2mm. I'll make sure to report if it's fatal.

18, 19, or 20t wide base sprocket, spacers, and chain tensioner. Shimano compatible.

Fully bled them after shortening the old hoses. But we will never know now.

Changed the hoses to xt on my deore brakes. Kinda had to after perforating the original ones. Now they have even more stopping power and the lever doesn't sink all the way to the bars like it used to with the old hoses. Highly recommended.

Been 95% huel since January. Occasionally I'll have some fruit with peanut butter, or a small salad when eating out.
The bars are disgusting, so are the powders, and the flavour boosters. But just like with everything else you get used to it. I'd say my health has improved considerably. So did my fitness. Also went from almost 100kg to 82kg.
It's great for calories tracking, saves time on cooking and cleaning, and gives you mental disconnect from food. I no longer look at food as pleasure, it's just fuel now.
I intend to stick with it for forceeable future.

I have em and they look ace. Not tubeless ready but they set anyway and held pressure for over a week now.

Thanks. Now to do some training, get sus forks and off we go again for sub 10 hours.

My xt seem to be more sturdy and stiffer than my plain deore. The difference is like between standard cable housing and jagwires compressionless.

Deore are excellent. Just don't bent the hoses as these are not reinforced like on higher models, will develop cracks and leak all over your calipers. Not that it happened to me last Sunday.

Dibs deore lx cranks.

I'd be up for it mid August.
