Re: My Fsr

Some really nice metal on here! Anyone have any idea of how i can make the size of my pic files smaller so i can upload them? this site will only take upto 512kb and my pics are bigger than 2mb!

upload them to photobucket and paste the links here

if you go to photo shop on your computer you can make the picture smaller by % or choose a smaller ratio. Both with create a smaller file. Make a copy of your picture first tho so you can keep the original.

Bigmicks right, check out S-M's build thread for details on the issues taking other swingarms/ chain/seat stays from other FSR models!

you'll have all sorts of things that wont be compatible
best to get your self an adapter or use rim brake on the rear

 

[krist420]

Cheers mate. I will have to check that out, sounds interesting. Yeh think i will stay with the adaptor until i start upgrading parts then i will weld some mounts on(have to be careful though because they will be attached to a large weld on the seatstay!) Got the whole thing planned out in my head now so i will start cracking on.

twain: maybe shadow would be nice, yes. but maybe I discovered my problem: I use a 8speed STI XTR 950 with a 8speed cassette and chain with a 9speed RD (952).

Does anyone KNOW if this may work properly?

 

[twain]

i may be wrong but, i think an 8speed cassette with a 9 speed chain should not be a problem.
if it was a 9 speed cassette with an 8 speed chain it may have issues.

8 speed chains are wider than 9 speed chains. i think i've read this on this forum somewhere regarding chain compatibility on rear cassettes.

Sheldon describes it at length and in digestible detail here:

EDIT: just re-read your post and think you are talking about a 9spd rear mech with 8speed chain/cassette and shifter. if thats the case, ignore my post!

having realised that, i dont think that would be a problem either....

shit, i just thought i had the damn cause

thanks mate!
