Now I wanna powdercoat or anodized them black.

On a scale of 1 to bad idea should I get a mtb with a 12x142 rear?

viggen · August 25, 2021, 5:29pm

A new actual mtb or like a poopbarning-“mtb”?

A real mtb: a bad idea.

LASER_BEIGE · August 25, 2021, 5:32pm

Poopbarn

I’m not that rad

LASER_BEIGE · August 25, 2021, 5:32pm

Fopbackeür

viggen · August 25, 2021, 5:34pm

Then don’t call it a mtb

If fopbackeür: do whatever you want what are even those standards?!?

Also: why y no just 148x12 like the gods intended?
There are so many hubs/wheels/brands to chose from.

You’re not going to get a mountain bike.

EndpointBraden · August 25, 2021, 6:16pm

BRUH… Karate Monkey is 12x145 for max compatibility.

Fulfill your destiny.

LASER_BEIGE · August 25, 2021, 6:16pm

Because I have a ck to wtb set that won’t convert to 148

EndpointBraden · August 25, 2021, 6:19pm

Post cant be empty

drwelby · August 25, 2021, 6:21pm

Does this bike need a wider Boost chainline?

LASER_BEIGE · August 25, 2021, 6:25pm

No but folx options

drwelby · August 25, 2021, 6:27pm

you got options at 142 since basically every gravel bike uses it too

Dickason_Daniel · August 25, 2021, 6:34pm

This is not a valid reason to determine which mountain bike to buy.
But…

My current dither is a minimal disc noodlebike with tiny top/down tubes and skinny seat stays. Real stiff chainstays and a externally tapered seat tube.

Why won’t this work?

Do new road bikes all have 12x148 or is 142 still a thing? Is 148 because of chainline due to fat tires?

Mankato_Pet_Cremation_LLC · October 9, 2021, 3:31pm

Road bikes are 148 now?
