I agree with what you say about the B screw, its just on my first 2 shakedown runs I had no problem AT ALL, and all I can recall doing to the driveline between is tweaking the B screw, so as its a free tweak its worth a try! I doubt anything has worn significantly in the 10 miles since I first rode it and the three miles or so I did when it was fine before it first played up! Yes I knew the answer to my Q, just playing devils advocate...

Should you use grease on the BB...
Published (2009-11-23 14:20:00)
It depends on if there is a stop. If you grease a BB that wont stop the crank moving once it is in the right place then you can cause the cranks to split as they#ll slowly move up the taper. ---------------------------------------------- 456! silly little bike

the main benefit of integrated headsets is that it allows manufacturers to use a longer head tube and increase weld area without increasing the headtube length and raising the front end too high.
i dont know where you got the idea that they are more expensive though ? a decent headset costs about the same regardless of what standard it is.

by Where are my stabilisers?
Beginning to wonder a bit myself, I've had a couple of loose spokes recently, but the wheels hasn't had much of a bashing They are DT Swiss EX5.1 rims, with Hope pro 2 hubs. The spokes are black - but so are the ones on my Halo Freedom wheels and I've never had a problem with these!
So, I may be putting 2 and 2 together and getting 5 and there are a lot of other factors to consider (I'm no...

Never had any problems in the dry, very good in fact. They don't suit the kind of chalky mud we get down here in the wet though and become very unpredictable and slip out as you describe. They were fine in the wet at Cannock though which has more gravelly mud. 09 Marin Wolf Ridge 6.8

Some tyre/rim combos are just a pain. Use steel tyre levers, or go tubeless/use slime or another tube sealant?
