Love those polished XT cranks.

Guys I've found it... Behold, the key to extended fork daruma success! Its a connector nut or put simply, a long nut... Available in a variety of M's you could screw it to the end of your daruma and then screw another bolt in from the underside of your mudguard with a rubber washer or two in between. I hope I'm not missing something here because I really think i've cracked it...

Now thats neat... You need to put that into production! @jambon

Thats genius but suuuuuch a drag... There must be a simpler way.

That COULD work maybe?? They're GB fenders with a vertical hole for attachment rather than a riveted on L bracket though..

Seems like a good place to dump this and show off a little bit about the best bike ive ever had...

I need help! I'm looking for an extra long fork daruma bolt to nicely fit my fenders to my P2 forks. The one that came with my guards is just too short and I have a MX style muddie... Anyone have any idea where I can get one? Couldn't see it on SJS...

Andy u so helpful :-)

I really need this rack. Does anyone know if SimWorks ship to the UK? Their stuff with Nitto is great...

I have a DH-3N31 on my commuter/town bike and its good as gold. They're like 20 quid too.

Cheers...

I'm thinking I may ditch the pizza rack in favour of a small rando rack soon to complete the look.

Sounds ace! Theres a brewery at Wincle too isnt there? We cover all distances really. Sometimes even just 10 miles for breakfast and coffee...

I've plans to get out to Macc forest when the weathers better. Never been... Will give you a shout. You can keep up with our activities on instagram best...

@alialias I doubt you'd be discriminated! I believe there are two purple stragglers in our midst...

Those VO bikes look great. Really heavy, but great. Love the fork. Blue Lug do some lovely builds.

Yep I am! Shout up if you see me. I ride with Paul R, Steve M and the grassupthemiddlecc lot if you know em? Come on a ride if ya dont!

Yep! 9spd Mtn has same pull as 10 speed road STI

I've not worked it out to be honest. I reckon it would handle 42t though. I plan to try it in the near future. I may need to use a Wolf Tooth Road Link to get it to work properly.

9 Speed Shimano MTB works with 10 speed Road STI on a 10 speed cassette!

Yeah the problem is clearance. Thats why I need smaller wheels for a larger tire. Tire sits further back/lower in between the chainstays/fork blades with more room for expansion.

Then you enter the world of obscurity!

Thanks... Yep thats what I'm thinking. I will be able to pit 700C in there with little issue. I think the extra drop is like 6mm or something. The desire for larger tires is strong though... If only there were a size between 700 and 650...

Its what I had. Plus, more options for narrow wide chainrings in the 104 BCD

I'm back with the finished article. My straggler now dialled and feeling oh so nice...

Forgive me if this has been asked but I'm struggling to find any info online...

650b wheels in a frame designed for 27" wheels using loooong drop calipers. Can it be done?? Anyone here done it? I have a very old frame I'd like to squeeze some nice tires into.
