Any question answered...

“Too tight” is when you pull the threads out of the freehub.

Double check the smallest sprocket is aligned with the big spline properly though.

How tight is tight when you put a cassette on a freehub

For the lock ring? It's tight enough when your torque wrench indicates 40Nm

Thanks. Freehub is Swiss and lockring Japanese, luckily Swiss won what now seems the battle of the threads.

New lockring worked, smallest sprocket alignment probably what it was.

Can I use 5800 chainrings on an R8000 crankset? Anything 4-bolt asymmetric is OK, right?

Should fit mechanically, aesthetics are likely to be challenging

Dental insurance? Look carefully at pay as you go, then you are paying for what you get rather than putting money into the coffers of a company like Simply Health

Is that for the dentist thread?

An older version of netwrix ad change notifier will email a report of daily changes.

That's what I use to keep an eye on things

Only thing is, I need serious (almost emergency) work done. Think 4 root canals finished (potentially 5), 3 implants, and plenty of fillings.

Did try the dentist thread but didn't get any kind of answer in there

Unfortunately I think you are just going to have to find the cash somehow. Insurance won't cover anything identified pre-policy.

It is an absolute crime the state don't do more to help with teeth and eyes.

Agree. The 4 unfinished root canals were actually an NHS emergency when I was completely KO'd and teeth were poking through the skin under and above my lips. They just decided to not carry on with the work once the bloody training dentist finished his course 🙄
So I'm pretty fuming that I'll now have to pay, I'm assuming around a few thousand pounds to finish their work. Obviously it's less of an emergency now but it's accelerating the issues.

I need at least 2 implants (would love to afford all 6) or I'll be on soft food before I know it. Also, I'm not even 30yo yet.

In an ideal world I imagine I need about 10k put into it. My job will never allow that.

Damn.

Dentures aren't much are they?
Maybe I'll just self-extract everything and accept the soft food life.

Just cabled up Athena 11 sp front mech on a bike that’s been out of use for a year or so and the release button is very heavy, like it feels as though you might break something. Cable runs through the housing nicely. Any ideas?

NHS implants are available for trauma, cancer and congenital birth defects. This includes failing in a tarmac direction from a bike.... Where are you?

Did you use a campag cable?

FTFY

Did you use a campag compatible cable?

Yes genuine Campagnolo cables.

Yes genuine Campagnolo cables.

That's obviously what I meant. ^^

And you had it in the highest gear, fully released when putting it in and it definitely sat in the cable seaty bit? Does it feel heavy with no cable in?

Actually yes it does feel heavy without a cable. Pretty sure it’s correctly seated, it wouldn’t pull correctly if not would it? I’ll probably just start again tomorrow.

Rear mech had no cable so was in highest gear. Front mech relaxed into little ring obvs.

I'm in London, unfortunately I think the time that has passed will prevent me from arguing with the NHS about their failures.

Used it a lots, extremely handy for certain customers.

Just found your reply! And was it accurate, in that indicated you could replace the chain and it never got it wrong and slipped?

Blast the fucker with a bit of GT85. But also look closely at it when you shift in case something is rubbing on the lever causing friction.
