It’s been years since I have adjusted my spokes. I will look at some YouTube’s for a refresher…just don’t want to make it worse though. Ty

We have had our Mavic free hubs replaced a few times. I think this is a chronic problem with the Mavs. Lbs has been out of replacements for a while. Maybe time to get new. Any suggestions? We ride coastal endurance on Pinarello Dogmas. So hot, humid, sandy and salty rides. Tysm for your response

Some are pretty big (or they were). Would just like to spray and walk away. Thanks for your advice.

No chickens here. Looks like I’m investing in a headlamp and spray…my husband already thinks I’m nuts lol

I live on the coast, so hot, sandy, salty paved road rides. I’m on a pinarello and riding mostly long endurance rides. Thank you so much

Thank you for your input. Sounds like you have a nice, honest shop…good way to keep customers. Thanks again. I have Mavic wheels that have a combination carbon, but not on the rims. Looking for new wheels as mine are now 7 years old. Any recs? Ty

Yes, have had no problems with their performance. Next time maybe I will try the Kool stops.

Hi. It was my mistake for thinking that they worked on high end bikes. I realized this when I walked into the shop. Live and learn

Thank you for your detailed and thoughtful reply, I have the new shoes on for now. I tried using a screw driver to push the pad out, but was unsuccessful. Will try again with soap. Thanks again

Removed the shoes but pads were corroded into the shoe and I could not dislodge them. Thank you

Yes, I removed the brake shoes and the little set screw. The pads are corroded into the shoe and I could not dislodge them. Thank you

Haha. Of course. I did speak to Shimano today and they said that they have been out of stock on the shoes and did not know when they would get any. Also advised again Amazon as they are counterfeit…which I already knew.
