So had my first proper ride yesterday after Changing to the 36 front chain ring.
I found that it really makes a difference and did not have to use the smallest gear on the cassette as much and using the miiddle of cassette still so less strain on the chain which is a good thing.
if you need to...
I am running code RSC brake. 220mm front 200 on rear
I still have the the HS2 disc as was not going to change rear as well as that is fine
I changed to a Magura front disc and have not had any problems since
I think HS2 disc are rubbish mine wharpped on first ride should have know was not a good sign when bike shop had to straighten when fitting.
Tried to get changed under warranty because I bought online from Europe because then was shortage of parts sram made it very difficult. I am not a sram...
Has anyone changed their stem from standard Cannondale one ?
Have not bought my bike anything for a while so thought I might upgrade it maybe carbon bars at same time ?
I just tend to use the bottom 5 or 6 gears more, I hardly every use top of the cassette gears and because I run NX Cassette I think the bottoms gear is 11 teeth not 10 like on gx and above.
I just thought it might be a good idea as the smaller gears tend to wear out quicker and I’d would...
I would powder coat them as more restisant to chips hence why when the car guys change colour of their callipers the get powder coated but will have to be completely stripped down and for finishing touch get some stickers made then you lacquer over them and won’t come off then

I did set my fastest time on Strava first time I went out on them so not sure if was that or new tyre of just...
I am no Sam Hill Maybe because I have his pedals on my bike make me better lol
Here are the trails I ride I am not the slowest but I am no where near the faster riders. I am 50 so hurts when I fall off.
Wow lots of replies thank you for all the advice.
To be honest I let the shop work on my bike.
The disc Is Definitely warped. When I got the disc it was fine. It Has got worse with time. Unfortunately trying to video and hold bike up is hard when on the trails.
When the new disc comes...
I am just using the standard pads that came with the codes. I would like more power but the work well enough for what I do.
The adjustment Bite point is wound out otherwise rubs even more when gets hot.
I have ordered a Magura floating disc hopefully that cures it.
I am so disappointed in...

Review: I bought a pair of these discs just after they came out, I also purchased a pair off code RSC brakes too.

I Took to bike shop as could not figure out where the air was coming out. I asked them why did my tubeless sealant not fill the hole, probably because you...
