You don't need to be an 'investor' to invest in Singletrack: 6 days left: 95% of target - Find out more
Can anyone in the U.K. service one of these or would I have to order the parts to service it from the states? Just wondering if anyone over here has those spares needed to take the rotational play out of it as well as whatever I need to sort the hyper extension thats started!
Cheers
Sell as spares or repair on ebay and buy a decent post. They were shite.
Can you not get spares from crank bros?
I thought the Joplin was the same?
mail me i have a pdf guide and a spare set of guides to remove play
Crank Bros parts fit
No Maverick spares agents have any spares for the Speedballs in the UK though. I emailed Craig Simpson a while ago, he sent me his entire spares collection to try and salvage anything from (3 broken posts) to keep mine going.
Bought my (functional) post from a guy off here, he's an engineer and had made new guide blocks himself for it. I'll send him an email see if he fancies making some more up.
Anybody got any spare seals so I can make functional posts out of the spares I have as essentially that's the problem with each of them.
why not just make your own seals ?
Are they rubber?
just get the right thickness cut to size then glue it?
what we used to do with marine stuff
Hi Junk,I think I found this pdf a few weeks ago when the problem first cropped up with my post. I might mail you later/tomorrow,cheers for that.
Hi mboy, yeah this blocks getting made up is what I need to look into. It sounds like the same chap as JY is talking about. Are you sure you want to get rid of them,Junkyard?! Maybe I should get them from you and send them to whoever. I take it the chap has a fresh set kicking about to copy.
It's not desperate but something I'd be happy to sort out. I do like the lever operation without the cable.. and for most rides,its easy enough to grab it.
mboy - which seals? The big / main external one? Or which internal one?
Didn't Trouty cut a spare 'block' out of a brass 13 amp plug pin?
I've got a Speedball that I'm willing to sell on. It's not been used for a good while, comes with the remote. Last time it was used it worked fine, but with the expected side to side slope.
Let me know if you're interested
Yes I did
it was for a mates post but not had any feedback as to how well it
is working but it did improve the sideways play lots.
Fiddly little bugger though.
