Installing Shimano Deore Brakes on my Nukeproof Scout
Took the time to finally install a budget friendly 4-piston Shimano Deore hydraulic brakes. No riding, only install unfortunately. Although its finally cooling off, so riding should be happening again soon.

Because the heat wave is out of control, this week will involve staying at home and fixing the Horizon Hobby E-Flite A-10 Thunderbolt II 30mm EDF that I have been putting off.

    Anyone who did this themself, did you transfer the old crown race off the recon to the new fork? Trying to figure out the easiest way and to buy the least amount of specialty tools to make the swap myself. I have the same bike. Was gunna order this fork, and upgrade the front brake.

    • @RomansDowntime
      @RomansDowntime 26 днів тому

      I used the crown race that came with the bike. You can always pop the recon off and see if the crown race has a gap in it on one side. If it does, you won't need any special tools to swap it over. Its just been a while since I did this, and don't remember myself.

    I have two cars a 2015 vw Jetta tdi and a 1931 ford model A. Granted the A I need to use second to climb some hills, I can stay in third down to about 7mph (about 285 rpm) without any issue. In that car first and second are pretty much off road/starting gears. The Jetta is similar with 236 ft/lbs of torque at 1700 rpm and with great torque down to 1000 making 6th useful from 35 to 130 mph. And with its 5500 rpm redline 2nd gear is good from 8 to 50 mph as long as you don’t mind the engine cursing you, your name and your offspring. So to be fair to all the manual owners out there, if you have the right car/setup no road condition is harder with a manual.

    I have the Gestalt X10, really wanted the XR, but it wasn't in stock at the time I ordered mine and it's a lot more money! The only thing I really don't like about the X10 so far is the brakes, they are kinda terrible. The slack geometry and wide bars are great though and coming from riding mountain bikes it feels natural.

      It’s funny you say that, because I was almost sold on the X10, but I had a bad experience with a cable actuated brake. The stronger hyd brakes (and dropper) are what convinced me to just spend the extra money. I’m glad I did, because I don’t feel it needs any upgrades at this point.
