Spotter cross

... What is that?

Some sort of hair trimming device. Don't worry, it's not compulsory, I'm 43 and never been near one.

I have some unused rival 22 cranks that I was planning to sell at some point soon if you're interested? 50 / 34 gxp version.

Ooof !

Oh I could well be interested depending on price?

cool, will pm you.

Feel free to call dibs if you want.

it's the '55' right? deffo dibs if so

55? as in CM? no its 58

OG forks also included, but no pedals and a different saddle

Wheels and tyres acquired! (thanks @Hulsroy )

And I just won some rival 22 cranks for £30 posted!

Well done scooter

Cranks came very quickly:

Logos are a bit rubbed so I think they'll get the acetone treatment.

Spot the mistake.

BB is on back order, narrow wide is enroute, just need to decide what length cage derailleur I need and what size cassette.

Thinking long cage and maybe 42-12.

Also will be getting jagwire elite link and the Yokozuna reaction cables are not easy to come by and the only stockist never replied to me about the restocking date.

Spot the mistake.

Cranks. ;)

I was wondering about the link cables. How come "nobody" uses them - as they are a compressionless, as brake housing?

Expensive?

Oh man - I just found some current prices. I guess you are right. More than 100£ for gear and brake cables, when you can have their pro-compressionless-set for less than 40£ :O

Also heard they were pretty hard to install so I'm interested to hear how you get on with it

Ugly af?

I'm just getting brake, no need for gear.

I'm just wondering if on a muddy bike if they're a good idea of if they're going to get creaky

Thanks to an very kind friend I just got some Yokozuna! So forgot all of that

Must be the kindest guy in the whole wide world ;-)

Little update. This has some what fallen by the wayside as I was busy finishing my Genesis. I got the the cables I was after, in black too none the less (thanks @jb xoxox), and I got a chainring:

However I found out too late that one has to remove the spider to effectively tighten one the chain-ring bolts. Which found me milling off the head of the mullered stainless bolt, I think neatly drilled a pilot hole for the bolt extractor, threaded it in aaaaand the tip snapped off...

So I've done what I should have in the first place and ordered a new crank with a 42t x-sync charinring - looking on the bright-side I have a spare 110 spider, chain ring and NDS crank arm should I ever need it...

I also sold my macho man so this is back in my priority list as I need something to ride

Slightly tempted to vinyl wrap this bike....

Nice one Spooter.
Stay away from vinyl tho
