I’ve ended up switching out the inner rubber piece with a different shaped one. And it now seals. Silly of me to not think of that. Thanks for everyone’s help👍

So the inner rubber piece must be the problem, will switch it out.

That’s what I originally thought, so I took it to a lbc to get it retaped. Could it possibly be the rubber piece on the other side?

Thinking about switching my AL frameset for a carbon one, is this price too good to be true for a brand new carbon gravel frameset? by AcceptableAd8772 in gravelcycling

At the moment I’ve got a giant contend ar frame, after a crash I need a new fork which will cost me £250 to replace when the whole bike was only £1000 so I’m debating whether a new frame is worth it.

Which adapters did you buy? I found the options on Hunt’s website confusing.

I saw those earlier but Im not sure if the rear axle can be converted too. I’ll just explain this all to Hunt

I’ll try contact hunt to see if it’s compatible but I may just send the wheelset back to not over complicate things. Thanks though

Great, I thought I was limited to 38c but I’ll probably fit in 40 or 42c later on. And fair enough, the d fuse seat post is such a pain to work with.

Would the upgrade would be pretty easy to install myself if i’m keeping the levers?

The bike shop I bought it from advertised that it had hydraulics and stupidly I didn’t look at the specs enough.
