My bike is slowly coming together. So some pics, and some questions :)
I've been waiting, and final I have some wheels.
Been dealing with Kiwibikes for about... 4 months trying to get some all black wheels, but it never happened. So got some from those guys that sell from the US. DP18's in silver with Silver Formula fixed/free hubset.. £100 or so and arrived quick sharp. (No income tax.. yah...)
Questions.
On the last picture, it shows where the rear cog needs to go.
if I buy something from here http://www.hubjub.co.uk/eai/eai.htm
Will it just screw on or do I need a lockring?
Its a Formula fixed/free hubset and I want to run it 'free' for now (due to knee surgery recently)
At the front when I sit on the bike and rock back and forward there is a slight bit of movement in the fork. I didn't greese up the fork bearings when I assmebled (something I plan to do soon) - Will this remove that rock? Also, anyone know any good cheap greese to use for this sort of thing? Ebay?
Ok cheers,
Rob.
