Brakes for the Missus...
I'm slowly but surely upgrading the Missus's hardtail....long term project. One of the issues I have is that she has petit hands and cannot reach the conventional levers on the current brake set-up. Can anyone advise me on what to look out for with regards to new levers or brakes suitable for ladies or something of a similar nature. Any tips welcome!
Chain Meshing Sound???
No this in not a chain suck topic
I'm putting a new bike together and its running SRAM PG990 9spd cassette and Truvativ Noir XC 3.3 Team GXP triple crankset. I have fitted a 9spd CN7701 dura-ace/XTR chain but the meshing of the chain to the gears (both front and rear) just doesn't sound or feel right. Not that it sounds bad and maybe I'm just being a bit anal but just doesn't sound perfect
Has anyone had this before as I haven't. Any thoughts?
Just a guide or a tensioner 2
Need to keep myself out of the grannie ring so going to 1x9 set up so.Do I go a chain guide only or a guide/tensioner it on a HT trail bike so do a bit of everything.

Crank Bro Mallets
I just bought some Crank brother mallets, but before i installed them. i noticed 1 moves alot less freely than the other and feels a bit notchy.
The shop where i bought them from said to chuck them on the bike and see if they free up. Does that sound right or am i just getting spun BS?

Cleaning regime, what's yours?
So with all this wet weather, everybody will be cleaning and oiling more than ever.
What's your regime and any hints and tips that could help us all make a tedious job quicker and more effective?
Tools and oils used, excuses to give the wife why you're using the kitchen sink as a degreasing bowl, etc.
