did the amoeba stem get sold please? If not im interested

Aha, thanks for that, it just says front hub but at least i know there’s something out there so the rear must be around too.

The hub is mavic crossmax 4 bolt on mavic crossmax disc rims with 180mm discs, the options are limited on 4 bolt discs so was just wondering if i could convert to 6 bolt for more options

Hi all, I am running Mavic Crossmax Disc wheels with 4 bolt discs, are there ways to convert to 6 bolt or is it new set of wheels?

Im from south lincs, on the border of the fens so got flat one side and some rolling hills the other, do a mix of road and mtb but preferring light off-road/trails with my hard tail 26” mtb

Offering on here before i put on ebay/fb SOLD Super light carbon fibre saddle with kevlar reinforced rails, weighs only 87 grams! (shows as 85 on my scales), Alcantara finish in VGC with only defect being slight nick in the Alcantara material at the back shown in picture.

:lol: She is a bit of an enigma, im just happy to have a titanium bike that i can keep long term and evolve into the classic 3rd album!

Thanks for the advice guys, will probably go back to 2x on the front for now as im too unfit/fat for 1x9 and its not going to cost much to do then decide where to go from there, would like to get the matching truativ noir crankset for the xo but they seem rare as hens teeth in the orange and...

Cheers mate, Noob question, could I go 10 at the back with the XO derailleur/shifter or is that not possible? I am not clued up on what you can and cant do with the gearing. Alternatively as I have the front shifter it wouldn't be too hard to go 2x at the front instead as the fittings are...

Cheers guys, I can find the bars easy enough its the retro stem i'm struggling with more, well one that also matches the look of the bike anyway, not keen on a black one but ill keep looking. im unsure about the crazy forks at the minute which may also have something to do with the feel, i have...

Recently swapped my 2017 specialized FSR 650b stumpjumper for this as it wasn't for me, pretty happy with it but thinking about putting my own stamp on it already! It has been made into a sort of 1x by removal of inner chainring and shifter, not sure whether to go back to 2x as i have the other...
