Everyone who hangs out here should be getting some chichi stuff soon. Post pics of the shiny, big or small.
nah, its going on my M9 and the first ride will be Sunday.Hey rice, is that db air going on your butcher (I seem to recall you had one)? I wouldn't mind a review after a few rides, my rp23 is just kinda Meh on that bike.
[nothing] That was easy. I don't even have to install the parts.
You are correct. jdcamb told me about it. I just installed it this afternoon, so I can't comment on how it performs, but installation went without a hitch.Are we really talking about a needle bearing that replace the DU bushing in Fox Shox and the tools to do the job???
How does it perform so far, any info??
Thanks

This came in yesterday, I figure since I was ordering, better make a substantial one:
And I got that since last fall but didn't install it yet, season was over for me when I got it:
Can't wait to ride again....
Hey, I just got me one of them there bikes from the classifieds. Can't wait to ride it!Nuthin new here, got a Spitty in the Fall and have been dialing it in all winter.
I have some old cable housing I could send you... I have a broken X0 I took off my old Kona I could send you too.I am a bike mechanic. My chit should be perfect. I am so broke as to be barely holding on. Sad actually.
blows my mind those guys are still using isisIt's about damned time.
I presume they haven't managed to steal the tech for BB30 yet.blows my mind those guys are still using isis
the bearings definitely had problems, the bigger issue was always the spline interface.I presume they haven't managed to steal the tech for BB30 yet.
Echo has an interesting ISIS/Spanish BB hybrid.
Interference with front freewheel. There is just enough room with a 128mm isis. With external bearings, you would need to move it out 5-10mms and then the chainline would be unusable.the bearings definitely had problems, the bigger issue was always the spline interface.
but come on, they can figure out FFW but they can't figure out a larger OD press fit spindle and outboard bearings?
good point, hadn't thought about that issue.Interference with front freewheel. There is just enough room with a 128mm isis. With external bearings, you would need to move it out 5-10mms and then the chainline would be unusable.
I didn't either till you said external BB.good point, hadn't thought about that issue.
i do think the spanish bb is kind of a cool approach to it to get even just a slightly larger bearing size in there.I didn't either till you said external BB.
