    Throbbing hum from rear wheel - ksyrium

    A bit of research lead me to a video along this topic. I've taken off the freehub, given it a good clean and degrease, refitted everything after using the suggested mineral oil as a lube and it's marginally better. Not knowing what these wheels are supposed to sound like freewheeling it could...

    Long drop brakes - fitting issues

    Thanks, I did fiddle with the grub screw and it did seem to help. The bike isn't fully built yet so I'm just using my hands, not cabled up at this point. Hopefully next weekend will allow some cabling.

    Wanted WANTED: Nice 27.5 wheel set, with old school 9mm Q/R axle hubs

    You could buy a set of wheels and simply swap the end caps over, assuming the hubs allow. You can also get a kind of universal adapter which is simply a qr axle that fits all the way through the existing bolt through axle. I'm sure there are many hub options out there, hope and Mavic are 2...

    Frame identification please

    That's my old frame ;). Kind of regret selling it tbh. If the one in your pics (eBay) is one then there will be a verlicchi or v stamp somewhere on the frame if it's anything like my old one.

    Frame identification please

    When I saw this I thought it may be a Rudy project/verlicchi frame. Had one once in the purple. I don't think it is as the cable stops and canti mount are different to what I remember but you never know. Iirc it required a 1 1/4 fork.

    Throbbing hum from rear wheel - ksyrium

    Nothing is ever easy is it. Bought some ksyriums with a campag freehub but needed Shimano. Sorted a Shimano one and fitted it as per the campag one (little washer between the freehub and hub body) and it all seemed fine. However when spinning up and freewheeling, there is a sort of pulsing hum...

    Long drop brakes - fitting issues

    I have a frame with long dop calliper needs. No problem in theory, though didn't realise it was a thing until I had gone through a couple of purchases that didn't fit. Bought a set of Tektro 539 or something like that as a stop.gap to get the build going while waiting for something better...

    Wanted WANTED: Nice 27.5 wheel set, with old school 9mm Q/R axle hubs

    I had a similar challenge recently and another one but for non-boost. The qr hubbed wheels challenge was solved through a purchase of a cheap-ish wheel to close match the one I had. It wasn't for a top end bike but qr hubbed 27.5 wheels seem to be harder to find if you want a half decent set...

    11 speed chains

    Thanks, not looking to run 12sp, things are thin enough with 11sp imo, never saw the need for a lot of this modern drive train change. Bin lid cassettes and tiny front rings. 1x drive trains seem to cost more then 2 or 3x and there's less of it. Go figure? I digress, I'll give the kmc a look...

    98 GT Zaskar LE seatpost size

    I think the post size can vary based on year of frame. 26.8 was a common GT post size in the 90s, my RTS all use that size. 27.0 was also used iirc. I'm sure some zaskar experts will be along shortly with more definitive help.

    11 speed chains

    Looking for a recommendation on 11 speed chains. I usually go for sram but wondering if I should change it up. Recently bought a Shimano which turned out to be a fake, and broke while my son was on the trails so keen to avoid making the same mistake. In short, recommend me a decent 11sp...
