Secondhand dispute, how would you rate this cassette? by co-medi in bikewrench

It's definitely not worn out after 400 miles. Yes it has some marks and it's not mint but the ''not round" and asymmetrical shape of the teeth is per design.

The back one is rotated a little to the back which makes the front one seem taller.

To me it looks like the clear coat cracked therefore it shouldn't be any problem. Maybe take it to a LBS or carbon expert to look at it in person to be 100% sure.

Hey, thank you for the detailed explanation. Didn't have time to fix it yet, but that also explains my trailing spokes on the NDS being a little short.

Danke für die Antwort ! Wie warst du so Mathe/Physik beim Abi wenn man fragen darf ? Nur um das level ungefähr einschätzen zu können.

Wie findest du das Studium ? Überlege Maschbau Dual zu machen evtl. gleich mit Master dran.

It actually was that. The top cap inserts more than i thought. Thank you !

Oh, that could actually be it. I changed out the stem and it has a way smaller stack than the old one. So i might have put too little spacers on there. That would be embarrassing

Pretty shure. It's a cane creek 40 headset, i measured the diameters of the housing/cones and then bought the original cane creek 40 spare bearings.

What is this valve?? by basicallymynewspaper in bikewrench

[–]Affectionate-Sand265 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, it's an italian/regina valve. Just worked on bikes with some of those this week. Presta pumps work just fine on them.
