    Hub size, any way around it?

    It worked OK with my mech. I guess the alignment to the chainring wasn't optimal, but I didn't notice anything

    Hub size, any way around it?

    The 5mm x 15mm spacers are to convert a front hub to boost. The 3mm x 12mm are for the rear. Main issue I've had with Ali Express is the time it takes for orders to arrive, but given the price one can hardly complain. Just needs to be factored in. The most critical component is the long...

    Yes. Mike I'd right. You have to move the rotor out 3mm. Try something like MTB hub boost conversion kit 142-148 in ebay

    Have a look at the blurb on this. They describe as hooked teeth. That's what nine look like

    Experiment 2: 4x chain rotation longevity

    Thanks to the OP for posting his experiment I’ve done almost 10,000 Kim’s now. All on GX chains, which know understand is not the way to go, it am currently locked into my own hot wax experiment with the GX so stuck there for a while. Typically only getting 700kms from a chain, but again that’s...

    Yes sorry 0.75% imay Change one day to better chain, but have a load of GX in the drawer at the moment. Did I read somewhere on here that XO do not take wax very well owing to tight tolerances?

    Hot melt wax - the journey begins

    Messed up a bit with the reply Upton - this is G-Sport I am doing the same as you except that the interval for the drip wax may be less frequent - i haven’t rally tracked that.
