Thanks @Netakure my idea was basically to make a 40-30 (yeah i know but it's relevant for my riding on 9 speeds), so with a road 40 as GRX doesn't offer this size (30 inner exists as GRX so shoulnd't be a problem). Seems i'll turn to good old TA as the cheapest + lightest option for unusual pairing. Thanks @BrickMan didn't know about these "marks", makes sense as brands would rather sell new rings that maintain compatibility unfortunately.

Thanks @BrickMan, sorry my english is limited and i didn't understand your first sentence (Mr / Ms). Can you please rephrase it ? Thanks.

Thanks @Chaley will try to ask my question more clearly :)
The document you shared shows a Shimano 4 bolts 110 BCD Asymmetric type of pattern : do you know if this is the same for all 4 bolts, 110BCD asymetric Shimano cranksets ? Would an Ultegra 6800 ring (4 bolts, 110 BCD asymetric) fit a GRX crankset in this respect ?
Thanks -

Hi,
I would like to retrofit my 2014/15 rear Frm Venus disc hub from 11sp XD Frm freehub to a 10sp HG.
They used to be offered in two different versions, and Frm still stock their 10sp HG freehub, but cost about 85€. I'm looking for cheaper, 2nd hand alternatives but don't know what would actually fit. Any idea ?Best

@aniki Agreed ! Carbon isn't inherently flawed, it's even a great material used in aircraft industry etc, but the way it is (mass) produced for cycling makes it potencially unreliable, obvioulsy polluting etc. Unfortunately by looking around the internet, you can find as many examples of it's toughness as it's weakness. I would rather avoid it, but i can probably live with it as well :)
@Lolo didn't know about that uncompatibility, i will look into this. Regarding weight, by choosing steel over carbon i already accept this flaw :)
@r.hobbs yep several could match in terms of looks but i didn't find any with the correct AtoC / Offset measurements...
@cake yes this was on my list (pending legs thickness measurements, seems a bit slim on some pics) but it seems sold out ! -
Not on hand, but it's a 2019 Planet X Tempest like this one https://stantoninnoblevelo.com/planet-x-tempest-long-term-review/

Sorry i didn't want to sparkle that carbon debate :)
@r.hobbs : not really scared, rather willing to go for an alternative. Thanks ! The Oria looks cool but doesn't have mounts unfortunately
@dancing james : you may be right, that headtube thickness is already getting on my nerves :) Good one !
@JB ahahahah I cannot disagree ! Still, a good riding bike is better than a good looking bike in my book :)
@PhilDAS you're totally right but on the other hand it is also the norm in some cycling circles to buy a new bike every two seasons, not something i'm into very much.
@lynx I don't know what's best to be honest, but yes my 531 frameset is still going strong 30+ years after it was welded.
@psg1ben that's a good point ! Some brands even refuse to build carbon frames (a little hypocritical to some extent perhaps but still...) -
-
-
Oh ! Many reasons ranging from the way it's made to it's questionable longevity, but the main one is that i intend to use that bike without worrying too much about scratches and marks...
I know there's a passionate debate about carbon, and i won't try to convince anyone that one material is superior to others, but that's just my taste :) -
Hello,
I just got my hands on a Ti frame aimed at "gravel" with a beefy 44mm (internal) head tube. I'm now looking for a fork with mounts. Considering i'd rather avoid carbon and i'm not wealthy enough to go full Ti, are there any steel options that would suit this kind of headtube (i mean avoiding the ugly-ish fat headtube / slim fork combo) ?
Thanks

These restrictions have been officially applied since April 2020 https://www.colissimo.entreprise.laposte.fr/fr/covid19
I tried shipping a pair of wheels last May (so just a bit above the 150cm rule) and it wasn't accepted , had to switch carrier for a more expensive one. Maybe it just depends on the type of office you ship from (size, staff etc). Thanks ! -
