• Yes indeedy.

    It's shit rimtape (oooer Mrs!). The rubber band type is feeble, especially under the weight of a gifted descender like myself. I daresay yer tricks an skids an ting put the thing under similar stress.

    Decent rimtape is cheap as chips. Either go for the fabric Velox type or the synthetic Conti/CONdor kit that looks like the gubbins you tie up pallets with.

    On the day, that's the real deal.

    I've been called far worse, Philyss.

    So do you reckon that the cog wasn't slipping but the dropout was?

    Might explain why the new hub wasn't doing the business.

    Are you grounded now?

    Nah, I'm on a different frame and I've loctited the shit out of the cog and lock ring - no slippage since (touches wood, corsses fingers, kisses own arse)

    i bet super ted could sort it out

    It's not worth the metal it's made of! I've got another temporary frame for now anyway - cheers to Stallionlegs there.
