Velosolo bolt on cogs

I was doing them up to the advised torque and they weren't cheap bits either. You may be able to get a higher torque before the bit slips because of the better shaper but I also found torque bits to be a lot more flexy than hex bits. I got a quarter of a turn of twist on a torx bit before, put some goggles on after seeing that thinking that it was going to snap on me

Badly made tools are badly made tools regardless of the design.

My "drive straight into concrete" screws use a T30 bit, drive them in with the 18.4v on max torque and it works dandy.

has anyone had any experience of using hope pro 2 hubs for this?

i want to try this out and i'd rather use a hub with cartridge bearings but appreciate that the axle will be different and din't know what complications this might cause..

gotta love bikes: need a different tool for every frickin' part. Went to take the disc off the hub and its attached with bolts that look like they need a star screwdriver to remove them. Since I fitted it (years ago) I'll assume I had the right tool but fuck knows where it is. Off to the LBS then...

sorry for the surprise torq nuts, but in general bikes require a remarkably small number of tools.

shout out.

New Campag use torx. I bought an Athena groupset last year and it was a mix between allen and torx.

I bought a fold out torx tool with loads of sizes. Only to find I need a longer handle to tighten my Campag levers.

I like torx in general but steer well clear of cleat bolts. After attachment, if you so much as look at them, they will clog beyond removal.

Cup & cones will work fine. The M756 is forged rather than CNC so it is tougher than most other alloy hubs out there, as well as being built to take a serious beating off road so it should spin for years and years if you look after it. By that time you'll probably be riding on different wheels anyway.

cheers,
i can't be arsed to get an axle machined anyway.

(i still reckon its backward that shimano still use cup and cone..)
