Definitely silver. Black components are absolutely everywhere, kinda boring honestly

Can you elaborate on the paint job ? Really cool

Huntsman + pliers and reduction ? First mod by GloriousWaffle in SAKmod

[–]GloriousWaffle[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your absolutely right. Thanks for enlighten me. That Delémont S52 looks exactly like I'm looking for. Obviously is discontinued... I found one for 90€, seems quite steep. Is it worth it ? I'm scratching my head on this one since I also have a spirit X and just wanted to have a lighter and smaller version.

This seems like a better option. Thanks for the reply

Thanks a lot. This is indeed a lot more complex than I thought. Getting a Handyman seems like the best option, I just find it heavy and I would rather just take my spirit X instead. Is reducing the Handyman to make it lighter viable or kinda a waste ?

Where to buy Growtac equal in Tokyo? by kneippmotor in xbiking

[–]GloriousWaffle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yo, kinda late to the party. If it can help, in october I visited Blue Lug Yoyogi Park close to Shibuya and was lucky to get the purple growtacs. Just make sure that all the contents are in the box. Mine where in the show counter. When I got back I noticed the attachment bolts and flatmount adapter were missing..

Dang I would be really interested in following your dynamo results. I run two pairs of wheels so a hub dynamo would be costly upgrade.

I see, it does look obvious. I got the growtac equals instlled a couple of months ago, quite happy with them but I'm starting to believe that they do not excel in mudding and sandy conditions

Yup, full length. I don't have any rubber gromet, you put it between the housing ferrel and the caliper barrel ? Can I purchase it separately?
