une déco pour nathan rennie

Le Newt LP avec axe Titane
Bon j ai un doute quand même sur la manivelle carbone en VTT...

Ayant eu un FSA K-force les manivelles sont bien rigide et costaud, ce qui a été merdique c'est l'axe cannelé qui a pris du jeu et les vis de cheminées qui se desserraient.

C'est surtout les chocs qui me font peur que les manivelles carbone mais ce n'est peut être pas fondé.

j'avais aussi cette crainte mais en général le vernis dessus tiens bien, il est assez épais.

2011 RaceFace Turbine Cranks – 2×10, 3×10, 3×9











From RaceFace:

* Light enough for XC but strong enough for aggressive all-mountain riding.
* New lighter weight Turbine BB with titanium coated bearing races to keep water out and and set a new standard in durability.
* 7050 alloy construction, resulting in unmatched yield strength and stronger pedal threads than XT.
* Lifetime warranty (versus XT’s 2 year coverage).
* 3 color options: black, red and grey.

Brand new for 2011, check out our paradigm-shifting Turbine Cranks.

With the Turbines, we’ve got almost every conceivable configuration covered. Beyond the standard 2×10, 3×10 and 3×9 setups, we’re also offering 2×9 (plus bashguard), and straight up crank arms as well. Available in 170, 175, and 180mm lengths, you’ll be hard pressed to dream up a combination that we don’t make.

Regardless of the configuration, all Turbine cranks are painstakingly engineered using ultra high-strength 7050 aluminum, then near-net forged and CNC finished for the aggressive I-Beam profile you’ve come to know and trust from Race Face. And because it’s from Race Face, you can expect them to be packed with more useful features than a Swiss Army knife: 7075 rings for precision shifting and wear resistance, alloy Torx hardware for a secure installation, removable granny spider for better chainguide fitment, and an available titanium spindle for your inner weight weenie.

The product of years of R&D, it’s been an amazing experience designing, riding, and abusing these cranks. We can’t wait to hear how much you’ll like them, too.

C'est la fin ? Ou un changement en tout cas...

C'est sur ça ? Car j'ai lu ça aussi mais rien trouvé d'officiel. Je trouve ça bizarre pour une boite présente sur le marché de la première monte. Mal géré ?

Dans la série le marché du cycle ne se porte pas très bien, Sun aussi est en train de mettre la clé sous la porte (ou se faire reprendre peut-être).

"NEW WESTMINSTER, B.C. (BRAIN)—Running into financial turmoil, Canadian
component brand Race Face is no longer in business. A receiver took over
operations on Saturday and has shut down the company. Race Face’s
bankers, Scotia Bank and Roynet, appointed Grant Thornton Limited as the
brand’s receiver over the weekend.

In a letter to Race Face employees dated March 14, Grant Thornton
Limited announced that it was terminating all Race Face employees at its
New Westminster factory, and at its operations in Taiwan today.

"As the receiver will be shutting down the operations of Race Face
Components Inc. immediately, your continued employment is no longer
required and, therefore, the receiver on behalf of Race Face Components
Inc., hereby terminates your employment, effectively immediately," the
letter stated.

Calls seeking comment from Grant Thornton Limited were unanswered.

“It came as a big surprise to all of us,” said John Pentecost, who was
Race Face’s component/protection marketing and product manager. “There
were about 50 people laid off here in New Westminster today and we were
told that another 20 people in Taiwan were also terminated.”

Pentecost said the banks had begun to require their sign-off on all
outgoing funds about four weeks ago. At the time payroll payments were
current, although many of the employees hadn’t been reimbursed for
traveling expenses and company payments into the Canadian healthcare
system were reportedly behind.

“For some of the people traveling to Taiwan and down to the States on
sales calls, they are owed $3,000 or more of traveling expenses. I’m
owed about $2,000, none of which we will see,” Pentecost said.

Race Face officials met with creditors and its receiver today. Officials
at Grant Thornton said they intend to dispose of Race Face as a single
entity and may rehire back some essential employees to assist in the
sale of the company.
