I shot forward and almost went out the first floor flat window/balcony thing. Would have looked rather odd.

Put a couple of 1mm spacers on then the 11speed cassette without the 13t cog and spacer. Gears all shift fine but obviously I have to be careful I don't shift up to the last click 'biggest cog' as it chucks the chain into the spokes but for the rollers I shouldn't need to be up there. Keep an eye for a news headline regarding a bicycle accident in a garage. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=14017#post-173744 Thu, 27 Nov 2014 16:16:33 +0000 Broony84 173744@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>I do have a working bike its just unfortunate that I have additional items bought separately that suit my old setup. I could argue that it has caused an inconvenience due do their faulty item. I'll see how I get on. If not its option 1.</p> <p>Cheers </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=14017#post-173740 Thu, 27 Nov 2014 15:50:46 +0000 I were right about that saddle 173740@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>I think you're entitled to a one of;</p> <p>1) new bike<br /> 2) old bike repaired<br /> 3) money back</p> <p>The second isn't economically possible so it's a choice between new bike and money back. New frame and disparate ill-fitting parts is not a valid alternative. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=14017#post-173738 Thu, 27 Nov 2014 15:46:58 +0000 Broony84 173738@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>That's fair point. A lot of the components were things I had bought and fitted so they put these on the new bike. I Might try and get them to supply me with the wheels as they supplied me with just a cassette. The bike is far superior to my old one so I don't want to push my luck </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=14017#post-173732 Thu, 27 Nov 2014 15:33:38 +0000 I were right about that saddle 173732@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>I'd suggest that the supplier is liable for the whole bicycle, not just the frame.</p> <p>The bicycle broke. You are due a new one. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=14017#post-173731 Thu, 27 Nov 2014 15:33:32 +0000 Broony84 173731@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Haha. I bought a 2nd hand frame recently and currently using it as a commuter. With a few tweaks I could turn that into a dedicated Roller bike to go with the wheels. Re-dishing a wheel sounds horrible </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=14017#post-173730 Thu, 27 Nov 2014 15:28:18 +0000 Broony84 173730@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>I'm maybe being a bit harsh on myself as I have changed a freehub body successfully recently and I enjoy working on the bike despite it not always ending well. Option 1 does take the faff'n around out of the equation and the wheels weren't expensive so could chuck them on my commuter. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=14017#post-173729 Thu, 27 Nov 2014 15:28:14 +0000 acsimpson 173729@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>I don't think 5 is even possible.</p> <p>How about option 6 of buying a new frameset to go with the old wheels. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=14017#post-173727 Thu, 27 Nov 2014 15:27:14 +0000 Cyclops 173727@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>11 speed freehubs are wider than 10 speed so if you want to change you may have to change the axle spacers and redish the wheel as well. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=14017#post-173723 Thu, 27 Nov 2014 15:19:25 +0000 Dave 173723@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>#1.

The frame was covered under guarantee but as it was no longer available the shop supplied me with a newer better model with 11speed 105. Happy days. </p> <p>My main wheels are 11speed compatible so that is great but the wheels I use on the rollers are only 10speed compatible (Not expensive but only have about 120 roller miles on them) Not sure if all the options below are possible but could do with some advice</p> <p>Options.<br /> 1. Sell the wheels and get new 11speed compatible ones with a new cassette.<br /> 2. Try and replace the freehub body/axle length to make the wheels 11speed.<br /> 3. Use a 10speed cassette with 11speed components (sounds risky)<br /> 4. Buy an 11speed cassette and install on the 10speed wheels minus one cog and adjust limit screws (sounds risky)<br /> 5. Sell the bike, the wheels and the rollers and take up another sport as I normally break things when I mess about with them.</p> <p>Open to any other suggestions if there are any?</p> <p>Cheers </p>
