I'm going to become a specialist haibike dealer selling parts only. I reckon that I could easily make a living selling soundwave his weekly quota of new bits to try and new gadgety parts!:D;)
Tell you what introductory offer soundwave - 119 links in the chain and all gold(ish) for £75 that's more links than you've got now so the chain has extra time to cool as you spin it round so fast!:p What dfo you think?

Decided to ride Cow Green to Dufton on Monday but only managed just over halfway before I got bogged down in a very sticky peat bog,luckily there were some walkers not far away who helped me out.
Going back when we have had a dry week to try and do the whole ride (if we ever get one!).

i still had 2 bars left at the end tho went to 1 after a few laps round the car park and m8 had a go ;)

done a few miles with it off as well on the flat and using eco and tour most of the time now as getting fitter and going further.

and tbh i think ed is right for up hill and trails ect 14t would be better for that but i like speed down hill so will keep my 16t and use sport now and then for the steep stuff up hill.

i could of even left the dongle at home as was not needed in the forest ;)

Sorry, I did not check the box, I think that is about right, just measure against your old one allowing for a little stretch. I keep a supply of the SRAM Powerlink connectors in case I do something silly like push a pin all the way out.

do you mean X1 or XX1. I believe that only the XX1 matches the odd-even cadence of the cassette

I am not certain, but I thought that you and I had 2014 AMT Pros and that has the X01 group and they changed in 2015 to the X1 group as it is cheaper. The X01 cassette is the same as the XX1 except for the colour. Interestingly, I have just ordered a 2016 bike and they have gone back to X01. I may be wrong and they may in fact have the same narrow-wide profile as the XX1
