Shimano cx75

Stupidly already bought one not realising they only come in 28 hole

Yes. At the top of the right hand side bar there is a button called "Edit conversation", which takes you to the screen where you can change the title.

Aha! Many thanks.

Would anyone be interested in an all city macho man frame set in a 55cm? (56.5tt) Chris king headset, Thomson seat post, fabric spoon saddle, tektro mini v brakes, bontrager bar and stem, sram rival cranks, single speed kit, clement cx tyres?

Thinking about getting rid. Can get picture If wanted

Great tip.

Yes. I would. PM sent

New road frame. Should be good, will be built up with my Ritchey, 10spd Campag stuff, Fulcrum 5LGs and 27c Paves initially.

kitchen?

Shower at work

I like that. What bartape?

Cheers.
Tape is Ambrosio Bike ribbon 'Colours'.

thanks for the toshop mate ; )

No gears needed really. F&S?

Nice one :)

There's a Donohue thread on here.

Sorry to bring this up again? Would this Novatec hub be significancy better than the Shimano rs505.

Its for a training/ touring bike so durability is the most important factor. The novatec has cartridge bearings but is also coming from poland so would take longer to get here.

The novatec has cartridge bearings

There isn't room inside a freehub for a cartridge bearing which is as strong as Shimano's 9×¼" loose balls.

So would you go with the Shimano, its for a CDF? How much more regularly do you normally have to service loose ball hubs, I'm in wet wet Ireland.

How much more regularly do you normally have to service loose ball hubs

Cut one inch off your piece of string every time you go for a ride. When your remaining string is under one inch, service your hubs.

I suspected that might be your answer
