Slackerizer Angleset

Posted on 17 February 2021 about Slackerizer Angle Headset - 2 Degree - UK Made by H. Anzur

Very happy with this angleset. I was a bit sceptical about it but the quality is top notch and you can really feel the difference. It went from 71° to 69° head angle on my old XC hardtail and stability at high speed is greatly improved and OTB feeling is greatly reduced. I can really recommend it to anyone who is looking to improve their bikes downhill ability without sacrefices going uphill and t

Evo Grips

Posted on 13 February 2021 about EVO Grips - Excel by D. Pickering

Bought 3 sets as I can't rely on being able to buy these again in the future. They are not quite as good as the old Excel grips but much better than not doing this size at all. The end without the clamp moves a bit more than the old double clamp grips and it's now impossible to get the superstar logo's on the grips to be the same way round on both sides of the bar. A limited run of refill cartri

Great Upgrade

Posted on 13 February 2021 about Slackerizer Angle Headset - 2 Degree - UK Made by I. govorko

Slackerizer is well made. I installed it without much hassle. Split crown race is a huge winner. Fitting needs to be done carefully. Notches help you gauge the center really well. 2° slack can really make a noticable difference, which I didn't expect. Bike feels a lot more stable on descends. Climbs are not noticably worse. This is pretty cheap upgrade, but it's an upgrade that'll make your bik

Specilised Hanger Scs Replacement

Posted on 12 February 2021 about Gear Hanger GH-083 by p. bowker

I bought the hanger for my 2016 Specialised Diverge. The bike used the SCS system which prevented full gear shifting following the upgrade of my wheel set with none SCS spec. This was something I discovered after purchase and fitting the wheels. New hanger fits like a glove and provides full gear range. I now have a standard Diverge without the SCS thingey. Well done Superstar for providing the sm

12/14T On Sram Eagle Axs Xx1

Posted on 6 February 2021 about 12 / 14T Jockey Wheels For SRAM EAGLE - UK Made by J. Gardner

Work well on my AXS XX1 BUT I had to carefully drill out the hole a little on the top wheel inside washer to fit the AXS cage. The wide narrow profile on the top jockey wheel is not an issue.

Top Quality Uk Made Kit!

Posted on 5 February 2021 about Raptor Chainring 110BCD - Narrow Wide by L. Houghton

This chainring has been absolutely brilliant. Quiet, loots great, and has lasted well longer than expected. After 2 years of rough cyclocross abuse, I'm having to replace mine, and I'll replace it with the same one I bought 2 years ago.

Great

Really pleased with the ZS56/ZS44 I bought. Equal quality to Hope at a third of the price. Speaking of, some people say these are tight but felt same to me as pressing in a hope ZS headset. Put the cups in the freezer night before if you've got a known tight frame maybe.

Great

Posted on 27 January 2021 about 13T Jockey Wheels For Shimano 12 Speed - UK Made by C. Morris

Nice quality, look smart and made a huge difference to the shift quality on my XT 12 speed that I was having difficulty getting indexed due to play in crap standard shimano jockey wheels. Essential if you've got SLX or Deore, you won't believe the difference.

Don't Waste Your Money

Posted on 22 January 2021 about Elite Barends by R. Brown

They don't survive brushes with trees. They are fiddly to fit as the o-rings are too big or too small. And I've just stripped the bolt thread. £20 in the bin

 

Superstar comment. If you have stripped the thread its been way overtorqued, probbly as the wrong o-ring size has been fitted. The bolt is purely to compress the o-ring to create friction inside the bar on thes

12/14T On Sram Eagle Xx1 Axs

Posted on 9 January 2021 about 12 / 14T Jockey Wheels For SRAM EAGLE - UK Made by I. Diggle

Read other reviews -neither jockey wheels in my AXS kit have high / low teeth. My Superstar kit came with 14T wheel without and 12T wheel with high / low teeth. Didn't work and only replaced bottom wheel.

 

Superstar Reply - This isnt possible as we only make 14T with narrow wide... there is no reason not to use narrow wide apart from its more expensive to manufacture. Not
