Thanks! Redishing is not something I'll do myself, and there's no easily available LBS where the bike is located. Biggest reason to go 8/9-speed now would be there are bar-end shifters for 8/9 readily available .The reason I asked about HG/IG was that one path to go down would be to replace...

I need some more clearance for fenders on my 1991 Karakoram. One of the selling points of the Odyssey Evo 2.5 seems to be more tire clearance. I'm constrained mainly on the width axis. Does anybody have experience of them for increasing clearance? Will they fit my current frame bosses (same...

Thanks! Redishing only needed when going 10 speed? In that case 8 or 9 speed sounds interesting if my derailleur can take it. Just a new Is my cassette likely to be Shimano HG or IG? HG it seems? Frame spacing should be 135mm according to MTB Frame Database.

But going from 7 to 8, 9 or 10 always involves some modification to wheel/freehub, right? Just realized the smallest chainring is the only one that's stuck with crank and for a 1x* conversion I'd probably want to keep the middle one. I believe I'm to anal to go 1x and still keep the two. So...

7 speed bar-end shifters do not seem to exist. Does anybody have experience with 7-speed rear derailleurs and 8-speed bar-end shifters? Will the microSHIFT BS-T08 or Shimano 8-speed ones work well in indexed mode with a 7-speed derailleur (in this case a 1992? Deore LX derailleur)?

Re: Re: Thanks! It just dawned on me that I have the front mech here in the house. Rest of the bike is elsewhere. I will have a look and see if I can do something with it. I'll get back to you if I need one! What's the condition like? Good to know, thanks! Thank you, that's very kind. I'll have...

I believe I misunderstood your original question. I have the rear mech. It's working. The front mech is not. Or perhaps it is. Previous owner removed (and lost) the screw with a red ring in the below picture (not my picture or mech, Googled something close to what I have) to get the chain out...

Stock derailleur. Could be M550. Not rated for larger than 30T, but internet seems to say it should work anyways. A picture of it:

Thanks! Problem is I want to try 1x7 gearing as my front derailleur is kaput, so I will need something wider range (granny gear wanted).

I just ordered a SunRace MFM4S 7-speed freewheel without proper research. Should it work or should I cancel order?

Tried to enhance the top tube model sticker. Looks like this:

Re: It says OFF-ROAD GS-18. What the heck is this? Can't anything Google-wise.

Re: Lo and behold. Stumpjumper at 25". Looks like a dream. Has anybody ever come across these?

24" is fine. Any models that spring to mind? Beauty! Thanks for confirming! Wont be getting that.

Oh crap, that's a tall bike. Might even be too high for me. Don't think I should go over a 94 cm standover.

Howdy. I have a rather long inseam that often leads to a very unpleasant saddle to bar drop with 90s MTB geo. I also think too much exposed seatpost looks unattractive. I'm happy to have found the 22" GT triple triangle frames as they measure 22" center to center, which ends up being something...

Does anybody recognize this? Says "OFF-ROAD"-something on the top tube.

Re: Thanks! Says "for standard cranks", that sounds general purpose enough. :) OK. Don't have the socket. Might be a good time to get one. Not against getting some tools to get these things done myself. Recommendation? It's a cup and cone I believe. See here: That's just great. Thanks. Was...

Want to remove and re-grease the BB, but I'm not sure what tools I need. I know it's measures 73x122.5 BB. Which (if any) of these two crank pullers should I chose: https://www.bike24.com/1.php?content=8; ... 120%5D=428 https://www.bike24.com/1.php?content=8; ... 120%5D=428 Or, if going for...

:D Can't wait
