Current Projects chat and miscellany

since we are on the mudguard subject how do I fit SKS Bluemels or Chromoplastic on this bike? P clips and what? I am absolutely certain that I want full length mudguards.

p clips on the back, then on the front the things that Dron has up there on the back of his (have no idea what they're called)

P-clips on the front above the caliper, or if you have an eyelet mount to that and bend the stays

You might have problems mounting them on the rear brake bridge as you don't have one. More pclips + meccano should solve that problem though.

Guys, what do you think about daily wheels with 16 spokes?
Friend is selling Bontrager hubs laced with DT swiss Aero to Alexrims RL2002.
Could get them for like 120 pounds. I'm about 70kg(something like 154 pounds? don't know).

I'm 70KG and think both of my wheels I've had are 16 spoke. 1 set retired due to wearing out the rims (were second-hand also), and now on some Shimano RS80's which are bombproof.

TL:DR you should be fine - if you're not doing stairsets on them

Forgot to mention that they are for Fixed gear, still ok?

youd be better off with 32.

yeah, that doesnt sound like a "daily" wheelset, ideally you want cheap, strong (a.k.a. heavy) stuff, with 32/36 spokes, then again you're pretty light so... tbh i'd leave it

Currently riding on Ellipse wheelset love it except lockring.
Thinking I could get them for my 2nd fixed gear or sell if I don't need them because so cheap.

matts got my forks. woop

Rad.

What's wrong with the locking?

Edit: make sure you're using Mavic specific rings as the threading is slightly different on regular lock rings, it can cause the cog to slip...

^^ who's are the wound ups?

love it.

So damn good!

Sell it to me one day...

I prefer to barter, but this one may end his life home. Sorry TM

Photography is not a little fuzzy?

Cheers.

someone was getting a fat headtube'd disc crosser not sure if it was a forumer though.
