  • It's may be because it's so cheap, that you simply don't care about it and just concentrate on beating Alberto Condator in India (frnar).

    On your #buyer bicycles, you invest time and money on it to make sure it feel 100%, nobody like to feel friction on their brakes when they spend £1200 on a road bike*.

    *never understood why customers are happy enough with crap brake cabling on mid-low end Cannondale).

  • where you're riding > what you're riding. Always.

  • Spot on, had some awesome day on a shitty Orbea Aqua in the Pyrenees.

  • Would a Campagnolo 10 speed derailleur work fine with a 11 speed Campagnolo shifters? I know Shimano is a big no no due to the difference in cable pull, but unsure of Campagnolo's compatible.

    If it does work fine, it would mean I only need to get the shifter, cassette and chains.

  • Anyone seen a Di2 6870 gearset about cheap?
    Otherwise it'll be 6800.

  • Not sure, in theory a mech is a 'dumb' component- so it would work.. but you'd probably have to change the jockey wheels at least.

  • I can't think why not, although you might need to/be best off changing the jockey wheels.

  • Possibly, in theory it should work fine without even changing the jockey wheels, it's usually only required when using says, 10 speed derailleur with 8 speed drivetrain (Campagnolo cages rub against chain).

    No harm trying, worst case scenario is getting the Athena rear derailleur if all else fail.

  • You want 6770?

  • Nah. But thanks

  • I can see some winter bikes with stupendous (if slightly long in the tooth) wheels on them.

  • Now that's awesome! Curious at what it'll cost, as 5800 already available quite cheap (bought a group a week or two ago for 335,- euro's!).

  • Came to post that - pretty impressive. I rode a rental bike with 4600 and that worked really nicely but looked rubbish.

    On the basis that you can get current 4600 for £225 and Shimano groupsets are getting cheaper, I'd say this is going to be a steal.

  • 105 hydro STIs however.

  • I have a pepper mill that looks very similar to that.

  • That can't be 105, non series?

  • I agree it's cheap but 11 speed cassette and chain still cost a bit more than 10 speed in the long run.

  • trying to find info on what torque chainring bolts and the bolts attaching spider to crank arm (fitting power meter) and wether I should use loctite at all.

    power2max is suggesting i use loctite 243 on the mounting bolts but no idea what torque..

    Cant see it on srams site, any ideas? Sram force 22 bb30 crankset.

  • Yes its the RS "105 equivalent" level together with brakes and some centrelock 105 road hubs.

  • I use 222 on chainring bolts.

  • Y'all seen this? All CNC'd and 540g. Expensive at 499€ though.

  • Could do with a bit more material around the pedal boss, looks crazy thin.

  • That's a single ring crankset no?
