Yer i looked out for gold hubs for ages but they never came in stock (until 2 weeks after ordering black of course :P), but the black still provides a clean look and means i can put them on a diff bike in the future without hassle being a neutral colour. So worked out in the end. Think the next upgrade i will do is a cut carbon seatpost with carbon stem, and a carbon chain guide (more 4x style then DH style, although that bash has saved me on a couple of roll overs in the bush). But thanks for the advice. And as for gold spokes there a bit hard to come by arn't they? keeping in mind i dont want straight 2.0 spokes.

Hey Nic,
With your SRS+, try a Black spacer under each ISCG bolt. The black ones are 2.5mm thick, and the gold ones are 1.25mm thick. You should be able to get the lower idler to align pretty well.

Cheers,
pw

Only issue really is it takes a little longer to setup than say shimano,but once it's fitted all is well after wards.

Post a pic of all you have,and i will have a look on the race face web to see if the set up is the same as diabolus and atlas,i have fitted about 4-5 race face crank sets.

Grease the splines where the crank goes on along with the bolt and try and tighten it that bit more,fitting diabolus cranks needed a lot of pressure to get it to nip down,make sure there are no spacers left in the box as the first time i had cranks fitted by a shop they left of 2 white spacers.Eek
