105 is the bread and butter group.
I ride mine on some jank, but I also have a MTB chainstay protector. If I really need to dampen the slap, I shift into the big ring.
Ultegra RX rear der der
Whatās the modern appropriate replacement for old Shimano cantilever brake pads? Like these pads:
Nothing clearly compatible came up with a quick google
No 8 in here might work. I searched on u-brake shoes. U-Brake Bicycle Brake Shoes and Pads - Modern Bike
Rearrange the washers on a modern cartridge style v brake pad?
Replace with Tektros?
My buddy is building up his new Ti Gryphon. His shifters are GRX. His crank 2x XTR. He couldnāt get GRX cranks. Which is he going to have more luck with, an XTR derailleur on the front or a GRX? I guess the GRX is built for a much bigger big ring.
The GRX will likely slam into the chainstay before it can get low enough.
If thereās a way to rig up a side swing Shimano MTB pusher that is 100% what you want.
Thanks, he has a side-swing on his steel Gryphon. Iāve passed that on. Pretty sure he will convert that bike to SS anyway.
Are all 160mm rotors compatible with all 160mm calipers?
If this is too complicated, how about MT800 rotors with BB5 and GRX calipers?
Iāve been told that some enduro/dh type big rotors might be thicker enough than other rotors that they might not play well, but who knows.
Some CL wonāt work with bb7s
Thanks yāall.
Gonna give it a shot.
New wheels arr CL so if that doesnāt work for my BB5 than itāll be time for new breakers.
is this some kind of Horseshoe Theory of bikes?
the same person is keeping both MTB Front Derailleurs and Singlespeed MTB alive?
Ha ha. Could be.
The little tab on the BB7 inboard pad, which hangs out toward the hub is sometimes too long and will hit the aluminum carrier of some centerlock rotors.
In that pic above I have trimmed the tab shorter. If you do this and have spare parts on hand go ahead and pre-trim your spare too.
They can also be issues with the tab fouling with the brake adapter too. Some adaptors come with a built in recess, some have felt the wrath of my file.
