Well, here's another one. Don't know if its weird, too much power, bad luck or a production fault with that weld right there, but it's a first for me: Broke my Inspired Hex yesterday, quite catastrophically. Fortunately not broken myself!
i have the same frame, i’m scared
-
you on the sidewall i also try the inspired foam kit and tyres rip even more especially in the center, i will try cushcore at this point.
thanks Ali

Hi, i actually ride an inspired hex with tubeless and cushcore inserts and i’m trying all the tyres available on the market but i keep cut tyres after one or two months of use. I usually keep 40 psi or a little bit less. I loved my maxxis ikon tan wall but i just ruined them same for continental with shieldwall, now i’m using normal maxxis ikon without tan walls hope that this made differences. my last try will be with a continental der kaiser without ribs. Someone had the same problem? thanks
-
i try only one of their mid range bike and i snap the handlebar in 6 months and broke the rear wheel in 5 months. I really like their alluminium handlebar but i don’t trust their basic line components anymore, maybe their top gamma components are way better.
I don’t understand the necessity of have brakes cables inside the frame
-
that’s Mad Max bike, really cool. i’m curious about the geometry
-
i will try again next week to put the ikon 2.35, i ask to inspired and they told me that the hex 2019 and the last hex both have the same yoke so if someone run that setup maybe with a decent rim it’s possible.
-
i’m actually using extention rims and there is space but i can’t constantly adjust the rim, i will definitely try on spank rims
-
it pass really close and if the rim it’s not perfectly center the tyre rub on the frame. How you can keep your rim always perfectly straight? it’s impossible maybe with a better quality wheelset with spank rims?

Hi i have an inspired hex 2019 version i think, the metal shiny black color. I’m actually running maxxis ikon 2.2 tan wall with inserts and i love this tyres. I also have a pair of maxxis ikon 2.35 for ride in more trial style but this tyre pass really close to the frame in my opinion. I saw some riders use this setup on the hex without problems like George Thomson or Yohan Triboulat on the last series hex model. Maybe this last hex model has a larger Yoke? thanks

but with magura brakes i don’t have this problem, only with shimano it’s weird
-
sand some mm from the adapter is dangerous?

Hi, im using shimano xt 4 pistons brakes on my hex with a 180 rotor but with every adapter that i use the brake look really far from the disc. is this normal? thanks

Do you have mount the race crown between the adapter and the bearing?
race crown? there wasn’t one, they sell to me the frame with headset but it haven’t a race crown. Update: I try another adapter and work perfectly
-
looks that the bearing dont fit perfectly with the adapter there is one extra millimeters

I ran one up to a year on my Marino wihich unfortunately had a tapered head tube. So I had to run one of these on my 11/8 forks for it to work. https://www.chainreactioncycles.com/mobile/hope-tapered-1-5-headset-reducer-crown/rp-prod71609?gs=1&sku=sku273357&utm_source=google&utm_term=&utm_campaign=&utm_medium=base&gclid=CjwKCAjwxOCRBhA8EiwA0X8hizNhBiay1UfTGbtpuiGaEnKnjU5ZdJHehx20UdNXT7cnpIQSMr4I7RoCIbEQAvD_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds
nice, this is for hope headsets. My frame had fsa headset i think i need something different
-
there is someone that had try to adapt an old straight fork to a new standards tapered frame? I saw that you can do it with just one ring at the bottom of the fork but I don't trust that much with street trial impacts. Can it destroy the fork really fast? thanks
-
Can i adjust the element fork for 10mm hub or is a problem??
-

-

Best 26" tubeless rear tire for street/trial

i try every single tyre on the market and i end with a continental der kaiser protection 2.4 and i remove 180g of treads, this tyre resist like a continental danny mac i think. it has strong sidewalls and with tubeless you have a bomb proof tyre. The only problem it made my bike way less street oriented because my front tyre it’s still a maxxis and the bike feel less well balanced. But after cut maxxis ikon tan wall and black wall, continental with shield wall and kenda tyres i don’t see another valid alternative.
