  Nice looking bike.

• Langster Bottom Bracket

  in Mechanics & Fixin' • 5 years, 7 months

  

  For anyone thinking about chainline on the Langster with a Sugino RD2, the correct bottom bracket depends entirely on the chainset. With a Sugino RD2 chainset (a road double), you will get a 45mm chainline with a 103mm JIS bottom bracket, and the chainring on the outside. By my reckoning, you could get the perfect 42mm with a 107mm bottom bracket and mounting the chainring on the inside.

• Can a Miche Primato Rear Hub Be Serviced Easily

  in Mechanics & Fixin' • 5 years, 7 months

  

  Just serviced my Primatos easily. Banged the bearings out using a 5mm allen key, and then cleaned the surfaces up. I replaced all 4 races with Enduro 6001 bearings from Henderson, for a total cost of about 20 quid including postage. I push the bearings back in using a dedicated drift, machined by Hope.
