I remember them being at around the $250 mark, but i'd be more inclined to spend $350 on second hand Pikes, and then just mix and match internals and lowers.hmmm thats almost half way to a pair of 831's...

Knowing my luck my internals would be flogged out too. Yeah I think that might be the go. Probably more economical but with a bit more mucking around.I remember them being at around the $250 mark, but i'd be more inclined to spend $350 on second hand Pikes, and then just mix and match internals and lowers.
I'm looking to run gears with a 10mm axle.Yes, but no. The frame already has inbuilt tensioners (the funny circle where the wheel slots in). Pretty much you place them either side of the frame with the axle going through them and the separate part connected to the screw pushes against the back of your dropout pulling the chain tight. It also helps stop rear wheel slippage.
Yeah, Ive had a set, nothing overly bad, some people have issues with the crankbolt but that's about it.Has anyone had any experience with Gravity Moto X chainset?
They seem light for the price (1 and a bit kilo's with a BB) and look decent
Thoughts?

Can you explain this a little further please. don't really know how they work.You wont need any chain tugs, they're built into the frame...
Running tugs may not help because the amount of slack you will have on the chain so you can run gears. It can allow the axle and tugs to move away from the frame. With horizontal dropouts its best to run singlespeed as the chain tension, along with the axle and tugs allows everything to be solid.Would that setup be prone to the wheel coming out of the horizontal dropouts?
No. Just tighten your nuts.Would that setup be prone to the wheel coming out of the horizontal dropouts?

Trent, I'd just add the cost of a new hub into the budget.Would that setup be prone to the wheel coming out of the horizontal dropouts?
Or just a new axle? Just need 10mm bolt up basically.Trent, I'd just add the cost of a new hub into the budget.
