Titanium Rotor Bolts
If you're reading this, we guess that you're keen to make your bike look a little more... Bling. Oil-Slick Titanium bolts are a great way of doing that. These rotor bolts are the standard m5 x 10mm length, which is most commonly specified on MTBs. They're made of 6AL-4V (Grade 5 - Aerospace grade) Titanium. A note on installationThese bolts come without a threadlocker. So you'll need to apply a threadlocker to ensure they don't fall out. Just a drop of Loctite 243 will do the trick (we sell that here). Only a drop, though, any more will make it difficult to extract the bolts from your hub. A note on bolt coloursThese bolts all have a slightly different colour profile; it's a feature, not a bug. Most are primarily purple with a blue-ish tinge. Some are primarily blue with purple-ish tinge. Don't buy them and then tell us they're inconsistent 😊 Why Titanium vs Steel vs Alloy?Steel rotor bolts are cheap and strong, but you can't really get cool colours with them. Alloy bolts are cheap, light a wide variety of colours are available, but they're weak and very easy to strip when you install them or try to remove them. Titanium bolts are light, strong and there's a range of colours available, but they're expensive as hell. So if you're keen on a coloured bolt, get a titanium one. Alloy bolts might be cheaper, but they're not worth the inevitable hassle of trying to remove them when they strip on installation or removal. Why not just get my bolts from Temu or Aliexpress?We got a few to have a look. All of them claimed to be Titanium, but none of them were. You can spin the lottery wheel if you like 😂

Rimpact Chain Damper (like Ochain)
Ever ridden chainless down a trail? If so, you would have noticed how much better your suspension felt. If you've not done it, we suggest you give it a go. It's quite striking how much more sensitive your suspension feels without making any changes to the shock itself. But obviously, there's a downside to riding chainless: you've got a bike you can't pedal anywhere... The Rimpact Chain Dampener is a product that allows you to get that same chainless suspension performance while still allowing you to pedal your bike. Below we've included an explanation about how the product works as well as our own experience with the product. This is such a long description because this product category, along with the Ochain competitor product, has created a bit of controversy in the riding community. There seems to be a bit of doubt about whether this is snake oil or not, we can assure you that it is not. How it works The chain negatively impacts suspension performance in 2 ways: Chain growth: As you compress a bikes suspension the rear wheel moves away from the pedals. As this happens, the distance between your casette and chainring increases which pulls your chain backwards. Your pedal stance naturally opposes this motion which adds resistance to the movement of the rear suspension. The downsides here are two-fold: 1) more resistance stops your suspension from compressing as easily and 2) you strongly feel that through your feet as ‘pedal kickback’ as your feet experiencing a significant feedback force which makes your suspension feel harsh. Without a chain your suspension just compresses and you don't experience this feedback force. High pivot bikes do help mitigate this issue. Chain flap: The faster you ride, the harder your chain flings about - we're sure you hear it. That's more chain growth, it’s just in the opposite direction (think about how much chain is below vs above your cogs). As the chain flaps about it pulls on the chainring and cassette, creating more of the same problem above. Essentially, your chain fairly violently pulls your cranks back and forth in a way that makes your bike feel harsh to ride. So how does this chain damper help? Well, it rotates with the chain. 4° of forwards rotation helps with chain flap and 8.6° backwards of backwards rotation allows the rear suspension to compress without being limited by chain growth. Jonos experience As of December 16, I (Jono) have been riding with a Rimpact Chain Dampener for about 8 weeks. When I installed the product, the difference to the feel of my suspension was pretty clear. The most obvious thing to me is that fast chattery bumps at the Christchurch Adventure Park now almost feel "smooth" on my feet. I have very flat feet, ride flat pedals and my foot arches tend to get quite worn out when riding, especially when I'm not well conditioned. I've found the Chain Dampener to significantly reduce the load that's been going through my feet, and I'm feeling fresher for much longer. It’s allowing me to do more laps in a day than I usually would be comfortable doing. I'm now in the firmly sold camp. The Chain Dampener significantly improves the comfort of my bike in choppy terrain and it helps me ride harder for longer. It's also clear that my bike has more traction when I'm cornering over choppy terrain where there isn't supportive berms to hold my hand. FAQ Can I just use a hub with less points of engagement (POE)? Yes and no. A low POE hub won’t absorb chain flap forces. It can help somewhat (10-20% as effective as this) with the chain growth issue, but even that will be inconsistent. If your hub happens to be in a position where it needs to rotate a reasonable amount before engaging than sure, the suspension will be able to compress unhindered until the hub engages. But if the hub is about to engage then it wont help at all. Unlike a low POE hub, the chain damper will always show up for work. Isn’t this the same as Ochain? You may have seen a similar product, Ochain, being used by many worldcup DH racers over the last couple of seasons. While O chain is similar, it doesn’t rotate forwards, and therefore doesn't isolate the suspension from chain flap forces. What about the ethirteen sidekick hub? Good question. We’ve not tried one but it looks pretty promising. We suspect that it might not deal with chain flap as well as this product. Beyond our suspicions though, to use that hub you’re going to have fork out a lot more money for the hub ($750 at the time of writing) and then have to entirely re-build a wheel. And as to the longevity of those hubs, we have no idea. We’re firmly in the camp that a crank mounted solution will win out in the long term. Are other chain ring sizes available? It is necessary to use a specific rimpact chainring. We will have more sizes and replacements soon! Does it feel weird to pedal? Yes, a bit. The pedals rotate a bit before the chain engages. Once it's engaged it feels normal until you take pressure off. If you're the kind of person that prioritises hyper-technical climbing then this might be an issue for you. For the rest of us, it's not an issue. Does it work on a hardtail? Absolutely. Chain flap causes a lot of the force you need to resist through your pedals. Chainless memories Remember the time that Aaron Gwin won a world cup chainless? 😅 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KMJTnB-50zE

Easy Luber - easy ebike chain lubing device
When you back-pedal an e-bike, the chain doesn’t move. This makes lubing the chain rather tricky… But this is easily addressed with this product. This tool creates a direct link between the crank and chain-ring so when you backpedal, the chain moves - making it as easy to lube as an analog bike. Personally, our favourite lube is Smoove, which works wonderfully for both e-bikes and regular bikes. Why not just use an allen key? This tool is easy to remove and can't break your drivetrain. Yep, that's possible - have a look at one of the photos customers have sent us about this: That is indeed a sticky situation. Product video

Rimpact CX Tubeless Insert Set - with Valves - 700C
Tubeless inserts reduce wheel damage and improve the feel of your bike. For a long time Cushcore ruled the insert market and none of the cheaper options had decent performance, but Rimpact has changed that. Rimpact are simply a well-performing product at a better price-point than the alternatives. This listing is for a set (two) of inserts with valves. Please consult the rim width diagram at the end of this listing to determine whether this particular product is appropriate for your bike. Rimpact Tubeless Inserts help in the following ways: They minimise the impact force on your rim. We’ve had far less rim dings since riding them. They help stabilise your tyre sidewall. The level of stabilisation will depend on the combination of rim and tyre that you are running. They reduce trail chatter. The extent to which they do this surprised us but it was very welcome 😊 They reduce the chances of damaging your tyre. In late 2022 Rimpact released an update to their inserts (hence V2) which changed the shape slightly to better fit modern rims. They also released some new insert models. We carry all Rimpact models and sell combinations of them so you can mix and match to get your ideal setup. If you're curious about other Rimpact models you can see all of our listings here. Original, and gravel/xc, inserts are made of a single type of foam and provide great performance at a great price point. We ran Original inserts very happily for 6 months at the Christchurch Adventure Park and were very happy with their performance. Pro, and cx, inserts are made from a dual-density foam which provides even more rim protection, tyre stability and tyre damage prevention than the original inserts. EDH inserts also have a dual compound like the PRO model but the outer layer is even more supportive and protective. This is the highest protection model and is best suited for serious downhill riders and for heavy e-bikes. Note that installing the EDH in a 2.4” tyre is quite a strength and patience requiring process. If you’d like to purchase a different model of Rimpact inserts / a combination of them check out our range here. Our experience using RimpactAfter a number of years on Rimpact on our gravity bikes we’ve found our favourite front insert to be the Original model because it has the best vibration damping characteristics and lowest weight. On the rear we prefer the heaviest duty model we can afford/be bothered installing, whether that be a Pro or EDH model. We’ve not tried the XC/Gravel model but have been running the CX model for years. We’ve been impressed by how much smoother it makes our gravel bikes ride and blown away by how much traction we can get at cyclocross races when we drop the tyre pressures to 25psi (and don’t have any issues!). Model Information Model Size Weight per insert (grams) CX 700C 55 Gravel / XC 29" / 700C 70 27.5" 60 Original V2 29" 110 27.5" 100 Pro 29" 160 27.5" 150 EDH 29" 180 27.5" 170 Notes A note about sealant: Tyre inserts will significantly increase the surface area inside your tyre so we suggest using 30% or so extra sealant than you would usually.If you've got this far, we may also have some clearance stock of old V1 rimpact models. It would be worth having a look as they will be at a discount.
