That’s just fucking stupid. Only way that has any hope of not eating crank spindles for breakfast is a one piece bearing carrier that’s an interference fit.@The Duckmeister - would you need to run the insert between the BB cups on this design?

Commencal Enduro Project Bike Check: New Meta
It’s all go for the second season of the COMMENCAL Enduro Project structure. Building on the efforts made in 2022, with a magnificent victory at the EWS in Loudenvielle, the team has been rewarded for their work.

A lot of gravel wheelsets have a 100x12mm front axle, which makes pairing them with a non-boost 15mm axle fork near-on impossible.What are the best options for a Second set of wheels for commuting? Mtb frame is non boost 12 mm axle.
Most mtb rims/wheels are wide these days.
Are gravel wheels what I need to run some narrow tyres?
It runs on bushings.That’s just fucking stupid. Only way that has any hope of not eating crank spindles for breakfast is a one piece bearing carrier that’s an interference fit.
Thanks. I have not had much luck with second hand wheels and postage is normally a pain on wheels. I will keep looking.A lot of gravel wheelsets have a 100x12mm front axle, which makes pairing them with a non-boost 15mm axle fork near-on impossible.
Given how many 'burners have "upgraded" to boost over recent years as frames have required, a post in the wanted-to-buy section could be a good idea...
Are you happy to build your own? That way you can chuck MTB hubs on gravel rims. I assume 27.5"? The older Stan's Arch rims were fairly narrow, from memory.Thanks. I have not had much luck with second hand wheels and postage is normally a pain on wheels. I will keep looking.
This one?A while ago I saw someone was making a Shimano derailleur clutch cover mod with an inbuilt Sram rip-off cagelock... Can't for the life of me remember who was doing them or where I saw it... anyone else see this?
All I can find with a Hambo is shitty 3d printed wedges...
That's the one! Thank you!This one?

Silly question maybe. What’s the round plastic doodad on it?@Calvin27 The BBB 44mm BB tool that 99 Bikes sells is good. Nice long handle for torque, no chamfer on the interface like some of the socket tools so you get full engagement. Pretty much always in stock.

If you have prime these are a good deal, not quite as long but still work OK.@Calvin27 The BBB 44mm BB tool that 99 Bikes sells is good. Nice long handle for torque, no chamfer on the interface like some of the socket tools so you get full engagement. Pretty much always in stock.

This is what I used this morning, works well and you can mix a shot in it afterwards to celebrate victory.Silly question maybe. What’s the round plastic doodad on it?
We all used to do it back in the day, ghetto style. Some rims were more successful than others but none were as reliable as the tubeless rim/tyre setups nowadays.I have some 622x19c wheels that I am thinking of using. Problem is it's not tubeless ready. Should I go to the effort of whacking tubeless tyres on this or is it bound to fail?
It's pretty narrow but I'm only planning to run 29x2.2 tyres on this so nothing fat.
Bike will be ridden periodically, at least once a week. The numbers are pretty staggering though. I can use some boat anchor tubeless compatible wheels 622x25c weighing in at 2.4kg, or a lighter old xc set that is 622x19c (1800g) that might or might not run tubeless. With tubes, the lighter wheelset is looking like it's still a few hundred lighter. But, if I can get the tubeless working on the 19c wheels that's almost a kilo in rotating mass at stake which is huge.If it's for a commuter or a bike only ridden occasionally then I'd go for tubes to be honest.
