Has anyone had problems with glazed pads? After cleaning and sanding they still glaze. Are some pad compounds more susceptible than others?

My wife’s phone quacks….could have been his phone?

Did you manage with the brakes wrong way round Steve?

Thanks for the reassurance and help to everyone.

Does anyone know if anything is missing here. The T type cassette is torqued down but will just lift out probable taking the XD free hub with it. Is there a cap missing or is this normal? It works ok.

I have had this happen on a GX AXS and a newer T type GX AXS. Mine were both replaced under warranty but SRAM diagnosed the problem instantly so I think it is a known design fault. Seems like a lot of people with the same issue.

Try unchecking Background App refresh if it is checked. It may make a difference to battery useage and should still work the app….maybe a bit slower to update?

You may not like the sound of it but what about a trike? I don’t know much about them but it maybe ok with balance issues on some XC trails.

The broken spoke had a section missing so not possible to measure it. It seems that most wheel manufacturers list their spoke sizes if you can identify the rim.

Thanks for that tip. I have just noticed that the washer on the old one is seized on the nipple.

If it helps anyone else DT Swiss wheels from 2020 onwards have an i/d QR code on the rim, inside and out to identify the components. The spokes on my rims are 3 different sizes and aren't in stock at my LBS, or any other I could find. Easy-ish to replace when you have them but a while off the...

It means taking them both out. I will take one out on the same side as the broken one but prefer to take as few as possible out. Thought someone may know as they seem to be millimeter accurate.

Has anyone replaced spokes om a DT Swiss rim ? Are the spokes at each side, going to hub side or disc side, different lengths ?

Mike I think you will find the T type chain and cassette will last a lot longer. The chain wear on mine so far is a lot better than the previous AXS.

As second hand bikes will drop in value (have!) you may see more sold as parts extending the life of others?

Hi Paul Thanks for the reply. I have just run a new rear brake hose and as you managed it with a barb and routed though with the old hose. I am finding it tricky to re-clip it into the down tube though but the battery does still slide in.

Has anyone dropped the motor on an e160 RSX to replace hoses / cables. Do you undo the Torx T40+ on both sides ?

Great advice…before the point of no return.

Thanks Mikerb I’ve not got many muscles but that looks like a job for my wife! I think I will then try and pull it through with the barb as I have never dropped the motor.
