I&#39;ve read that as I&#39;m on a hardtail I should get a high volume rear tyre as it&#39;ll offer a bit more comfort. </p> <p>I&#39;m running a Minion DHF 60a on the front so ideally it&#39;ll be either the same or a little less grippy than that. Also my frame doesn&#39;t have amazing tyre clearance - it&#39;s an older Trailstar LT and the 2.35 minion just about fits on - much wider and the mud clearance would be awful. The riding I do is a bit of a mixture - xc/singletrack, dirt jumping and increasingly more downhill/freeridey style. High Roller 2.35 seems a standard choice but are they high volume? </p> <p>Whilst I&#39;m making a tyres thread, I also need some 700x23 tyres suitable for riding on wet roads. My current ones are Specialized somethings which are completely slick and I don&#39;t really feel very safe on them at speed in the rain. </p> http://www.singletrackworld.com/forum/topic/cant-get-my-hope-pro2-freehub-seal-to-click-back-on-help#post-1774979 Sun, 05 Sep 2010 18:17:15 +0000 firestarter 1774979@http://www.singletrackworld.com/forum/ <p>hi on the hopetech vid the freehub fitting on the rear hope pro2 the final seal to keep the freehub on clicks into place. i have the correct tool but i still cant get it to click in. anyone any ideas ? it doesnt even seem to have anywhere to even click in to so im at a total loss tbh thanks </p> http://www.singletrackworld.com/forum/topic/trailerbikes-kiddyback-tandems#post-1772611 Sat, 04 Sep 2010 16:57:19 +0000 aracer 1772611@http://www.singletrackworld.com/forum/ <p>Any recommendations on trailerbikes, also has anybody used one of those trailgator towbars which allow you to hitch up their bike to yours when they get tired?

I notice they don&#39;t all wear evenly and imagine the ones engaging when applying most pedal pressure wear the worst? Is that true?</p> <p>So if I rotated the rings by 90 degrees before they got too hooky, would that extend their life by 50 percent or more?</p> <p>Because of the arrangement of ramps and tooth profiles to give the smoothest shifting, should one rotate all three chain rings 90 degrees together? </p> http://www.singletrackworld.com/forum/topic/klein-mantra-how-much#post-1778752 Mon, 06 Sep 2010 21:14:28 +0000 kitchenroll 1778752@http://www.singletrackworld.com/forum/ <p>hello there, been offered a black mantra with manitou sx forks, original finishing kit and bonty wheels, drive train is xt as are the brakes, really good condition apart from the few scratches but(&gt;......................) frame bushes are screwed. will need replacing, ive looked but cant find a price for them, offered provisionally £225, he wants 250, whats your thoughts? </p>
