    SunRace

    What is quality of SunRace (spare) parts? Only been using Shimano and Sram chains till now, so I wanted to try a SunRace CNM84 chain. Any experience? How about brake pads, cassettes and skewers?

    Marin and Cannondale help for pricing

    Slovenia...will let you know if I split. However parts are nothing special...have that blue handlebar Marin lite (that was originaly on the bike) somewhere. However it had bar-ends mounted and it seems they were not tightened, so the the handlebar ends (10mm) are in a pretty bad shape...strange...

    Marin and Cannondale help for pricing

    Thanks fotorat. It seems that it was sold like this as new...on warranty list is right serial number, however they sold it as F400 (so with Rock Shox fork). It really is a bit strange... Maybe they changed the fork before first sale. However I think that aluminium bike that was used with...

    Suntour XC Comp hub + cassette

    Anyone needs this? It was mounted on a rear wheel, the rim was new, I bought it in a local bike store about 15 years back and replaced it with shimano hub. Do not know how the teeth got broken, store sold wheel casette and broken bolt for price of rim. Bolt seems aluminium. Cones look new. Hub...

    Pulley/jockey wheels issue

    Yes, sorry I didn't mention it - photos are of the same jockey - the lower one. However you figured it out yourself. Will change chain as soon as possible. But I remember at the beginning - I had a low end mountain bike and everything was running smooth until one day I decided to change the...

    Pulley/jockey wheels issue

    Re: Thanks for all replies. I agree Muddy paw, I should throw away the chain once a year...however using three different bikes, chain never wears the same on all three...depends which one I use most at the time. I never changed jockey wheels though. Is that necessary? OK legrandefromage, so...

    Pulley/jockey wheels issue

    Thanks for replies. I was using this XTR derailleur on the other bike for the summer. Same components, PG850, chain is different (only written SHIMANO HG NARROW) and in better shape (145,2mm (5,72in) between 13 rollers). Too bad I did not look at derailleur closer, however I did not notice this...

    Pulley/jockey wheels issue

    I mounted a XTR RD-M952 rear derailleur (previousely had Shimano STX RC) and there seems to be a problem regarding chain compatibility (if that is even possible). Chain is Shimano HG, cassette SRAM PG 850. When the chain goes around the pulleys, it makes kind of grinding noise, that is...

    Ritchey Logic LP Canti blue pads

    Yes, on the package is written black --> red --> blue (toward extreme or wet). So blue is for extreme/wet/mud. So maybe in general is like - more water --> lower friction coeficient --> pads have to be more agressive toward the rim. So more rim friendly are softer pads...which work better in...

    Ritchey Logic LP Canti blue pads

    Anyone tried these? They seem to be pretty hard on the rims. Noticed a lot of fine alu dust after one short descent. They also make noise not squeek but like grinding) soon after short breaking. I am using Weinmann BCX2 rims. I cleaned the rims before instalation. I thought they were soft...

    Araya RM-17 concave rims...Now with pics!

    Thank you Antstark. I will just measure thickness of the sidewall now and change the rim when the wall shrinks for 0.5mm. I guess that will do... Yes W_A_S, sorry, anodised of course. I guess 20 years back they just anodised the whole rim and let it be. No side machining...thank you for the...

    Araya RM-17 concave rims...Now with pics!

    I know this is an old topic, however I have a question regarding RM17. Got one (new) few years back and built a new rear wheel. The rim was all painted in black (sidewals also). I did not mind that, however after using v-brakes paint went off and sidewalls became silver. Colour is no subject...

    Sugino granny

    Was wondering what does CSS-III HDC and CSS-II on Sugino granny stand for ? Aparently I should turn the ring correctly according to chain type (according to arrows)? I usualy have Shimano HG-40 chain. Just a shortcut to discussion would be fine.
