Snake Bites

Emergency Tire Boot

The fastest, easiest, and most secure way to repair a cut or worn tire sidewall. The TB-2 is produced using a strong, waterproof vinyl membrane with fiber weave reinforcement. A super strong pressure sensitive adhesive assures the boot stays in place in any tubed tire, road or mountain, high or low pressure. A true ride saver.

I thought snake bites happen on sidewalls ...anyway

Pinch Cuts result from hitting stones, curbs, or sharp edges of holes in the road surface. When the tire hits a sharp edge hard enough, it compresses so that it bottoms out. The inner tube can get pinched between the rock and the rim. Pinch cuts usually put two small holes in the tube. This type of damage is sometimes called a "snake bite" because the two holes look like the wound made by the fangs of a snake.

ok.... only talk about hydraulic.
the only reason to mix is because of doubt in point 2.
now since it is confirm shimano disc can fit to other hub, then no need to mix liao.

note: i am keen to upgrade to XT, but could consider upgrade the shimano hub later.
btw- it is once of the LBS owner that told me shimano cannot fit to non shimano hub- unless you modify something ( i dunno what)

now- the credibility of the LBS is in doubt.
Btw- he also advice that if you have a 2.3" tyre, and a 2.1 tyre- it is better to fit the 2.3 tyre infont so it is heavier and won't endo.

I was like..... HUHHHHH... u sure?
How much weight does the different make? even spinning dynamic force also not much la... since climbing is low speed.

shimano centrelock disc only can fit to centre lock hub (any brand can do)...

shimano 6bolt disc can fit to any 6bolt hub... and to centrelock hub with 6bolt adapter like this...

If like this no need trouble... just buy Giant. Giant bikes got the most wining trophies compared others... in almost every discipline... and it is one of the cheapest bikes you can get.

How come you are not using one?

No money to buy... Only Got enough money to buy giant... coz giant is cheap n has won many trophies..
