To be honest i just looked at the weights on sicklines.com for a reference/ guesstimate
that was a wierd spam post! hahaha
so what other hubs should i be considering??? i need to keep the weight low!
using the internets i found the following info:
-Hope pro II Front = 177g, Rear = 286
-Stans ZTR Flow = 470g
-32 Spokes (dt-swiss) + nipples = 140g per wheel
TOTAL WHEELSET WEIGHT = +/- 1679g
not bad considering thats a proper all mountain rim but what other quality hub options do i have that...
Hey Frorider, i would love to get that contact info for the wheels you mentioned on the AM wheels thread. Your saying that i cant get the FLOW rims laced to hadleys for $525 for both front and rear? do you gave an estimate on the weight?
thanks!
Hey guys, along with the lyrik damper upgrade i also want to change the wheels on my Remedy (160mm version), so again i look to you guys for recommendations.
At the moment i'm thinking of getting the new Mavic crossmax ST's, the only thing that keeps me from paying them is the internal width of...
thanks for the help guys, i just ordered the DH and Rebound Dampers from my LBS, it seems Sram doesn't have stock of both at the moment, i'll just have to wait for a while, hope it doesn't take too long.
Lyrik DH it is! now, i've read that in order to fit the DH damper you also have to change the rebound damper, can anybody confirm this????
im sure its going to be WAAAY better than my IS i just wanted to make sure it wasn't way to plush for the uphill pedalling (don't want to be bobbing up and...
Hey people! does anybody have any ridetime on the new lyrik RC2 DH damper??? be it on a air or coil lyrik? Im currently running the base level Lyrik U-turn IS on my remedy and am looking for a performance upgrade for the downhills. My only hesitation for buying the new damper is if the fork will...
Hey guys, i'm seriously considering buying the new Mission Control DH Damper for my Lyrik coil, im currently running the cheapest version, the IS, which just has a type of compression block off on my Trek Remedy
Is anyone running this new damper??? what type of riding do you guys do? whats...
I didn't really want to keep commenting but there was a bit of hate coming from some people! tough crowd...
everyone's entitled to their opinion and in the end it really doesn't matter, i got what i was looking for, if i believed that i didn't deserve the warranty i seriously wouldn't have...
Hey Guys, well i said i would keep everyone updated upon any news of my Warantee issue on my 2009 Commencal Supreme DH (http://www.ridemonkey.com/forums/showthread.php?t=232007) and today i got some awesome news from Michael Rainey, Commencal Brand Manager, my warantee passed and a new 2010...
sorry, i never meant to mislead the first post i wrote does say the paint was stripped but i didn't to the painting myself and then learnt it was just ontop... i only paid 50bucks for the paintjob so i wouldn't have expected much labour going into it.
i've found my proof of purchase and have...
I feel the same way, i've just been pleading my case without talking sh!t because i know that's not the way to get things going in you're favour. If i do get my warantee i'll be a very happy camper, i would have learned my lesson to not touch the original paint and probably will continue buying...
UPDATE:
I just got an email from the Commencal Brand Manager, Michael Raney, He's sent me a warantee form to be filled out but still says he cannot promise anything....
now i have to find my receipt!
Yeah i also though about frame flex but havent wanted to strip the paint just yet, until i see what response i get from the Brand Manager. I´ve also emailed a contact that has been given to me directly at Commencal in Andorra, i speak spanish so i´ve written him a detailed email as well...
The frame was not sandblasted at all, they actually painted ontop of the original paint then i stuck stickers ontop! and for those who have seen a commencal, they use VERY thick tubing, reason for why they are so heavy. I've since sent an email to the Commencal Brand Manager at BTI pleading my...
i've been offered a crash replacement at "store cost", but have not been given the price. i still believe the frame should be replaced, its a known issue. from what i read in the Commencal owners club forum, the frame supplier they chose to go with for 2009 were crap and since then has been...
unfortunatly BTI is the sole supplier for USA, i bought the frame in the U.S. i'm pissed because its a KNOWN FAILURE in 2009 Commencal's and just because it's painted they wont warantee it. i love the bike, its seriously the best frame ive ever ridden, but shelling out that kind of cash and not...
