The Bike Shop / Chrisking hub conversion

« on: September 15, 2015, 07:08:42 PM »

So I have a set of Chrisking ISO hubs for a downhill bike. They're 150 x 12 thru axle with a 20mm thru axle on the front. Can I convert them to non disc hubs with 135mm rear spacing and bolt on axles?

 Would I be better off just getting a different set of hubs or is it economically viable to buy the parts and swap them out?

The Lounge / Bicycle messengers of BG.

« on: June 19, 2015, 10:34:35 AM »

So I'm nearing the end of my bike tour and have decided that this is what I want to do when I get back to Dublin. Mainly cause I want to stay as fit as I am and I don't fancy working in a kitchen again. 

How exactly do I go about getting a job like this? Talk to other messengers? Throw out CVs? Maybe just rock up with a decent bike and a smile and ask for a job?

Any tips on the daily grind? Of course I'll get a decent bike sorted and some wet weather gear, and I'm pretty handy with bike maintainence.

Tell me your secrets.
