new chain....shimano slx group set
hey guys I'm just after some help, the lack of knowledge has finally hit me.
I've kinked a chain on my bike, and have started looking for a new chain,
I'm running a 3x10 system
current chain has 112 links, when buying a new chain I'm only offered 116 or 110, is it advised that i break the chain down or what, i don't know its completely different from the mx
thanks guys

I've just replaced the battery in my Garmin Edge 500. It's on charge now, I'll give it a test run this arvo maybe.

Withdrawn: 2004 santacruz v10
2006 fox 40, xt brakes, e13guide, SRAM x7 drivetrain, Funn fatboy bars, sync rows stem, dent in the down tube and crack in paint only see photos, comes its maxxis tyres not schwalbe pictured, selling to upgrade.
Withdrawn: Hayes disc brakes
Hayes disc brakes in excellent condition, front has scratches on the lever from a crash but works fine. These have not been on a bike for some time but work well, would recommend bleeding them up before use. Comes with 200mm front rotor and adaptor, 160mm rear. Must go make an offer.
New Ride
After four months of collect and build, my new bike finally hit the dirt today.
Thanks to Committed Cycles for the help, shame they are no more. And a big shout out to Wembly cycles for helping me out today with the final details.
wasn't going for a lightweight build, but ended up 8.84kg with pedals.
XC handle bar replacement
Hey all
Can anyone give me any pointers in regards to replacing my current alloy handle bars for carbon fiber option?
Shape, size and brand?
And is it worth replacing the stem at the same time?
Cheers
Tony
Withdrawn: Sold Afterburner 386 with MegaExo BB
Brand new in box, unused.
175mm crank arms
2x10 (30t / 42t)
Complete with BB30 bottom bracket unit.
It looks stunning. In my mind, one of the nicest looking chainsets out there right now. $140 for a very similar weight to the current 2x10 XTR!

Frame bags for dually
Has anyone bought a frame bag for a dually (Kona Dawg Deluxe)to carry gear in on their mountain bike?
Hydraulic Disc Brakes - Problem
Yesterday I received my disc brakes from CRC. A set of Avid Elixir 3.
I think there may be a problem with the pistons or pads?? There is very little room between the pads on the rear calliper. The wheel side pad/piston doesn't seem to fully open and I cannot get the calliper aligned so the pads dont rub on the rotor(even with he Avid CPS system).
Earlier when I was installing the brakes and went to remove the rear pad block/spacer, it wouldn't come out easy. Was jammed. I had to pull hard to remove it. The lever was still in bubble wrap and had NOT been pulled.
9 speed chain ring
I am looking to move from 8 speed to 9 speed. My rear derailleur is nearly dead, and rather than buy an 8 speed I will upgrade the whole drivetrain to 9 speed.
Are the actual chain-rings 8/9 speed specific? Or will any chainring work?
Same question for cranks. Will any cranks work or do I need specific 9 speed cranks?
I am pretty sure that I currently have a 9 speed front chain-wheels and/or cranks. The crank has the shimano 'mega 9'sticker on it. But they work fine with my 8 speed setup.
Would be great if I can still use the same crank and chain-rings. The chain-rings are brand new.
