So sad today...Kiara trail was dry and excellent ...but I snapped my chain at 2K...lucky there were fellow riders from Klang who helped me with my chain... notworthy.gif

Lesson learnt ...get a toolkit, learn how to fix your chain ...and learn how to shift gears  blush.gif

Technical Question

Can I buy a ie:Hope Hub...and replace the existing hub on my CrossRide? Meaning I reuse the rims and spoke...

and can you buy only one hub or it comes in pairs?

So what rims and spoke are usually compatible with Hope Hubs ?
*
Normal clincher rims with 32, 36, etc. holes.
The thing is with Mavic prebuilt wheelsets, they use 2:1 ratio IINM. One side has less spoke than the other.
But if you buy separate rims, like EN321 or XM719, you can use any hubs as long as the spoke counts/holes are the same amount.

Technical Question 2

Is it true that its not recommended to use SRAM chains with Shimano components?

My stock cassette is Shimano, chain is SRAM, chainring was Shimano (now Lespes), RD is SRAM, FD is Shimano, shifter is SRAM. rclxub.gif

For chains, I think Shimano's (KMC) are better hmm.gif

And somewhat cheaper than SRAM's.
Getting the HG-X chain later.

SRAM (YBN) is a bit soft. Easier to snap.

Technical Question ...Again

Siapa tau apa beza Deore XT Hitam and Deore XT Silver (apart from the obvious please) ....
*
The black one is made out of space age alloy type material. You cannot change the chain rings because it is CNC to make it lighter, stiffer and stronger. By making it with CNC, there is no chain bolts thus this reduces weight. The rear derailleur has a different spring tension. The spring tension is as tight as the one on XTR with the trail mode set to on. You could feel the difference when you try to push the cage with your hands. But the low side is, you can't switch it to off. Shimano is known for the 2:1 ratio rite? The black one has a lower ratio which is IINM, 1.5:1. So, it has a snappier feel to it. Why not 1:1? Somehow SRAM has patent the 1:1 actuation ratio, so, Shimano cannot use the 1:1 ratio. The front derailleur also uses the new ratio which is 1.5:1. The best part is in the shifter which actually homes the 1.5:1 ratio. Snappier feeling I guess. For the Apart from that, the chains are the same, the cassettes are the same.

IIANM, freeride and downhill tubes have thicker sidewalls right? But they're heavier than the cross-country tubes.

Even if I have pinch flats all the time, do I just have to change to better tubes or tyres too?

Tubes are tubes. As long as the size is right. What rims are you using? Have you checked your rim tape?

People have been suggesting a lot of things for THAT pinch flat problem. Can't you pin point the problem already?

Put powder in between tires and tubes. See if that helps.
