    Cassette Upgrade

    That's what I usually time, but this time I changed cassette size and chairing size, hence the hassle, next chain will be easier.

    Cassette Upgrade

    I think I know where I went wrong, when I sized the chain I let the air out of the shock, but forgot to put at full sag. When I rechecked the chain tonight, this time at full sag, it was a link too short. I've added another link and readjusted the B gap. It now seems smoother going onto the...

    Cassette Upgrade

    Just rode 16 miles and shifted fine, didn't notice any issues. Hopefully it's OK, adding a link is a pain as it would been add 2 more power links to a new chain.

    Cassette Upgrade

    Sorry, didn't realise it was in the wrong gear, this is the right picture.

    Cassette Upgrade

    This is it on the largest gear, which looks ok. I'm taking it for a spin tomorrow to see how it goes.

    Cassette Upgrade

    I replace everything in the end, moving from 11/50t with 38t chainring to 10/52t with 34t chainring. I sized the chain based on SRAM's guide, including removing the air from the shock, however it came out the same size as my old chain and looks a bit tighter than the old drive train. Does...

    Chain stay bracket catching on new spider.

    So I double checked the new spider and it appears that the wrong version has been shipped, standard not boost, which I assume is why the spider is rubbing on the chain guide bracket. I've organised a replacement, which will hopefully resolve the issue.

    Chain stay bracket catching on new spider.

    It's not the chairing that's rubbing, it's the spider, it's slightly narrower than the original and rubs on the chain stay bracket that mounts to motor.

    Chain stay bracket catching on new spider.

    Unfortunately the only place I can find an original is Germany and they don't ship to the UK, so looks like I'll have to grind it down.

    Chain stay bracket catching on new spider.

    I had to replace the spider on my Yamaha PW3-X as it was damaged, I source a FSA replacement, which is different to the original, but fits ok. The problem is because of the shape it now rubs on the chain guide bracket. Anyone got any suggestions on how to resolve? At the moment I've had to...

    Cassette Upgrade

    I currently run a NX cassette, X01 derailleur and X01 chain, my current chain is 6 months old with about 670 miles on and in excellent condition. I'm about to upgrade the cassette to a X01 cassette (also replacing the hub to XD), is it really necessary to replace the chain? As the chain is in...

    Raymon Trailray 160E 10.0

    I purchased one of these in March, can't be beaten for the money, already made a few upgrades, such as flat pedals, GX derailleur, GX shifter and a nicer saddle. Brakes do need an upgrade, may try some new pads and upgrade the discs when the wear. I did convert to tubeless before the first...

    Hi from the UK

    Recently purchased my first emtb (full suspension), I was struggling with my knee and riding became unenjoyable. Got a bonus and decided to finally get one, I love it and now get out more than I ever used too.
