Dingus, the thread is for info, you have made your point now take it to PM and shut the f**k up.

It puts the battery in the frame,
or it gets the hose again.

Just got one of these.

Anyone know if this sprocket would work with stock freewheel on LR? Instead of joining it to the LR adapter, putting it on the opposite side of the freewheel... http://www.sickbikeparts.com/catalog/product_info.php?products_id=66 I checked my measurements but I am not sure how they were measured an...

Having ridden many mtbs for the last 20 plus years i would have to say there is really no comparison between a single pivot pogo stick type frame and one with a patented rear suspension linkage for off road riding. I would tend to agree. But what about for hub motor builds used for say 80% commutin...

The UHD is a lot wider and has more threads on it.

i will stick with my chopped up DH Comp. What type of frame did you chop up and is there much selection for DH, XC, All Mountain full suspension frames that leave a lot of room in the triangle? GT's seem to take up most of that space. Giant Glory 0, Kona Supreme Operator, Trek Session 9.9 Norco Sig...

Having ridden many mtbs for the last 20 plus years i would have to say there is really no comparison between a single pivot pogo stick type frame and one with a patented rear suspension linkage for off road riding. Even for commuting there is way less pedal bob with a real rear end. The em3ev frames...

Really? Looks like it's keyed to the spindle and the bashguard sits on the crank. Either way, this particular crankset prob won't work but I like the idea. A BB30 style bottom bracket with the freewheel transferring it's load to the spindle vice through the ISIS crank/spindle interface. That HXR Ea...

The freewheel is attached to the spindle, the splines are adjacent to the crank on the right in the pic. But ya, if the right side crank and the spindle were one piece that'd do the same thing- hold the freewheel/front sprockets more solidly. Hi Dave i just checked out the Hashtagg cranks on tarty ...

Do not get a Hope hub, get a second hand DT or a CK mate .
They have more manly engagement.
I have a spare CK 32h hub shell free if you want it to build up.
It has a few accidental drill marks (dont ask).
Pay the postage and its yours mate.

I have prescription lenses in my Oakley Eye Jackets, no wind gets in at all.
Not sure if you can still get them done as i have had mine a while now.

GNG uses a four bolt pattern. This allows them to use either cheap Chinese four bolt flanged freewheels or cheap Chinese 16 tooth freewheels. The four bolt holes line up with every fourth valley between the teeth. I use a five bolt pattern which is compatible with ACS and White Industries. Yes that...

Nice bike Cheekybloke. Well the frame kits do not include rear shock and fork, but that does not mean they don't have a working suspension. Adding shock and fork gives you what you need, and you can choose quality and strength of those based on your riding style, weight or cash flow. That said, Sam...

None of the over the counter bikes have a real working suspension system, give Sam D a message and chop a real dh frame with a patented rear end.
He did this for me from a Giant DH Comp.

Made one from stainless it was quicker and pretty easy.
No worries about bending either.

I suppose this would qualify as a full sus fat bike.
It has 65mm wide rims, maybe slightly overweight bike?

The 3 speed cassette i made was using 2 single speed cogs and 1 from a normal 8 speed because i could not get a 28t single speed cog. The spacers i used came with the single speed kit and are a little wider than 8 speed spacing. This is why i have a thumb shifter on friction mode. I also put 1/8 cha...

Took bike for a pedal powered test ride today, gears work better than expected (will cover this in a later post)
1/8th chain and a 3 speed cassette.

This it what i have done with a DH Comp frame, it was not easy but i did manage to get a straight chain line and a working 3 speed with 1/8th chain.

Another one done by Sam D.
Giant dh comp, stretched by 3" and steerer tube steepened a couple of degrees.

They make really tiny joints with the same dia hole as your shock bolt. I did think the adjustable bar would enable you to tighten it really well . What about the top shock linkage with a custom bolt in it? that looks in the right place. Stick with it mate its nearly there . Darren its not a bearing...

[quote="John Bozi"]Should have it in a month. The to do list: I will have to put a torque brace = bit angle alu, fixed this chain retension device hole. https://fbcdn-sphotos-h-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-xpf1/v/t1.0-9/12042796_10153590667259845_7207189096265918508_n.jpg?oh=f2e644e12c33e037f1dcb574c51...

Tried out the 3 speed today and it shifts, a little lumpy but it shifts.
Had to widen rear mech with washers and longer bolts to get the 1/8th single speed chain in there.
Also removed the curved bit of rear mech cage at thee side of the bottom jockey wheel as it rubbed on the chain a bit much.
Darren

I had an idea for the non shiftingness of it all, which was to use an 1/8th chain and remove the alloy pin on the rear mech cage as it stops the chain going through.(it will be slacker on the cog) The chain does fit inbetween the cage but i may widen it if it needs it. Worst case is use cassette cog...
