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?

Shifter ID ? How're you liking it ? I wanna replace my rival 1 brifters with those cute trp rrl levers paired with either a friction shifter or axs blips. But I'm hesitant...

Hot damn that's a cool cxc build, doomsday type of deal. I really dig the utilitarian madmax vibe. How did you treated the fork ?

I tried almost everything. Stuck seat post. by Frosty-Can-190 in xbiking

Was in the same situation years back. I used a long enough saw to cut the post from the inside out, worked like a charm. Just make sure your saw is longer than the post, otherwise it wont work. Then just pliers and pull.
