  1. Twice? As Dave says, Maguras are usually set up with two M6 connectors on the crossover, the braided ones however are not like this.
  2. If you think it may be the ratchet, check the ratchet... and lube it up while you're in there! (Light chain oil)
  3. First contributing factor towards it skipping lol. Will have a hunt for pics now... Edit: Hmm, they all seem to be there for me?
  4. There could be so many things that aren't quite right with the freewheel... are you certain it's been put back together correctly? What lube did you use?
  5. It is true that they are much better backwards than forwards though, both with lock and bite?
  6. Problem 1: That's just how vees work unfortunately. Problem 2: What greases/lubes have you used? Noodle?
  7. Weelll... the weather is looking uber-gash, so may not be riding this week! Will post up here when we decide to go Photos sounds good Mitch
  8. Yes, BUT you would need to drill and tap a hole in the lever blade to house the grub screw which keeps the lever pivot axle in place.
  9. How long ago did you have your last XC though? And how much has your riding changed since then? That's the issue I think.
  10. If you're killing Pro2 T hubs then an XC/Ti Glide/Mono/Bulb won't last you 5 mins...
  11. Should be fine once he tensions the chain
  12. They look a little weird since they are so much longer than standard! 16% more leverage though
  13. The 4 finger ones? Yes. CNC ones, as mentioned, are already out: http://tartybikes.co.uk/product.php?id=10335
  14. As good as the postal service in the country it's going to http://sg.royalmail.com/portal/rm/PriceFin...ear=pricingcalc Airsure (signed for, £150 insurance included): £13.84 ISF (International Signed For, £34 insurance): £13.14 For the extra I would go with Airsure, we've never had a problem with it!
  15. Good stuff Stick a 'proper' seat post in it or there'll be a hefty crack in next to no time...
  16. Busy at the weekend... every weekend now until Easter
  17. It's alright for a mess about, not worth the trip from Bumley though. Rain... ah well, didn't check the forecast, haha. Some other time then maybe?
  18. I think having zero offset might actually give the opposite effect you're trying to achieve... Turn your forks around and have a quick ride - obviously this would give ~-45mm offset but it would give you an idea of how the handling would change.
  19. In testing Magura have actually found the 4-finger blade less likely to crack/snap lever bodies - the riders think this may be due to a little more flex in the blade. They also have some CNC lever blades out in Red and Black which will be available very soon.
  20. What draft angle are you using? And which dimension does the 46mm refer to (top or bottom of the chamfer)? Whats the depth/thickness of the lower part of the pad? (if X = 46, Y = ?, Z = 3)? Whats 17 + 13 + 17? Not 46 :wink2: Might need to tweak that...
  21. Leave some dimensions and I'll do one tonight for you What format do you need it in?
  22. We actually take the time to fit forks and headset to the frames and measure the geometry, rather than just taking the manufacturers' details as gospel
