Hi does anyone know if a special tool is required to install a xtr m952 bottom bracket, thanks any help appreciated.

 

[marin man]

Yes I think that it is different to a normal shimano tool as mine was boxed for m950 tool only,I think that the m952 is the same fitting but not rebuildable

Thats the bike almost finished now just need headset, bushings for the rear of the shock(if anyone knows what size i need it would be appreciated) and a new cassette as isnt bonding well with the new chain, before and after pics.

I wonder how light Lasenbys Mt Vision was?

 

[stewart.d.campbell]

Well thought id just post a few pics of the bike finished (for now)

 

[mikesnowdon]

Well done

Any plans for new paint/decals in the future?

Mmmm not realy, might do the swingarm at some point as its a bit tatty but overall other than cable rub spots which will soon be covered with lizard skins patches its not too bad realy.
