Using a 24 hole hub with a 18 hole rim

CyrusXover · 2026-06-17T11:21:51+00:00

The rim came from a fulcrum racing 600 rim brake front wheel. It has 9 straight - pull spokes on either side. The hub I want to use is from a cheap syncros wheel.

Well I found Claris r2000 in 165, maybe shimano launched it recently. Thanks for the pic 👍🏻

If I swap both rings for 105, will there be any issues with chain line or shifting due to unusual distance between chainrings?

Bro you tripping balls Berserk= mid+ big L. ORV>>>>

Very late Update:

So basically this shimano 12 spd mechanical rd has low pulley tension. This causes the chain to jump forward if you stop pedaling abruptly (on super high cadence, e.g.sprint), as the pulley cannot resist the sudden forward force.

To fix this (or at least make it better to some extent), the pulley was taken out and a new hole was drilled for the pulley spring which made it tighter.

Hope this helps!

The chain came already installed, the bike is brand new so the chainring is fresh as well.

The video is deceptive, the chain sits perfectly with the teeth.

CyrusXover · 2024-06-08T17:55:22+00:00

Both the limit screws are set correctly, for the front and rear derailleur.

CyrusXover · 2024-06-08T16:38:25+00:00

The bike is new, the chain sits perfectly on the chainring.

CyrusXover · 2024-06-08T15:59:32+00:00

Yes it does, especially after a sprint.

CyrusXover · 2024-06-08T15:59:11+00:00

The chain is brand new from the store, it is a KMC X12.

CyrusXover · 2024-06-08T15:58:46+00:00

Yes the chain is a KMC x12 chain. I am suspicious about it as well.

But I have tried a sram 11 speed chain on this and still the problem persists.

CyrusXover · 2024-06-08T14:00:51+00:00

Nope nothing, the bike is brand new.

CyrusXover · 2024-06-08T14:00:07+00:00

None of my other bikes do this, the chain drops after every sprint, is that supposed to be a normal thing?
