I decided to go with the new LV fluid from Shimano. Besides crashing and dying, the worst thing could happen, is ruining the Magura calipers. If that happens, I’ll just just buy the Shimano ones. The LV fluid is $$$$ $75 for 500 ml

I’m trying to figure out what mineral oil to use. The updated levers M9220 use a new low viscosity oil. mm5 weight and state it must be used. The M7 use mm11 that is much thicker. I’m definitely leaning towards the mm5 but wondering if it will be an issue with the Magura calibers.

Mine did that when I mistakenly installed the master link upside down.

My local deal just got two in, he said he had a hard time getting them, had to reach to corporate. Thanks for the reply.

My local Trek dealer had the kit in stock. He said they just got two in last week and said he had a hell of time getting them and actually had to call Trek. The part # I was using is correct. 599909

Unfortunately the bolt/shaft that goes through has some pitting on it. what I’ve see, the kit is about $50 and the bearings are $25 each. The bike is still under warranty so I should have just taken it to the dealership for repair but it’s apart already, but I enjoy working on my own toys

I can’t seem to find the pivot bearIng kit in the States, is it only available in the UK? I believe the part # Is 599909 I checked a couple sites in the UK and it seems it can’t be shipped here🤨

After hitting a deer on my way home from work with my 3 month old truck I saw this.

I had a similar issue, It only did it on the smallest gear in turbo mode. It ended being my fault, I had the quick link upside down and it would cause the chain to pull away from the gear enough to cause a nasty clunk. This was on my old Scram NX.

In the USA you can order right from Trek's website. You can pick up at any dealer and they get the credit for the sale or Trek can ship it to your house for a few. If it goes to the dealer, no shipping charge. Last thing I had sent to the dealer, was there in two days.

I had upgraded mine to to 108. Not sure how much louder it was but it did sound different.

I’m not a fan of loud hubs, hopefully with some grease they won’t be too bad. The wheels are the Flow Ex3‘s. The videos on Stanes site is impressive, they should hold up well.
