Default X11 Rocker Crank Pivots

Hi all

Did first race today with the X11 - broke in second qualifier

The cheese like rocker crank pivit sheared and so needs replacing. I recall reading somewhere that the X10 version is more substantial, but Team Exteme's site shows two versions for the non-X11 versions. Which is the one to use and do I need anything else to make it fit?

Hi mate,

Im currently using the X10 ones these are a direct fit all you need is the little nut to fit on the top to hold the rocker on obviously and not the button screw. Im sure there will be some new ones that arent hollow in production soon enough.

This is what you need:


ROCKER CRANK PIVOT SHAFT FRONT (X2)
£8.50
Model: S110A

And...

M3 NYLOC NUT (X10)
£2.55
Model: XH007

Garry

Run a longer m3 screw through the pivot so it just shows @ the bottom if you can't get hold of the X10 part. It will then fill the void in the pivot and give more support.

not saying it won't break though

I've managed to get hold of some X10 ones now, so should be ok.

i don't think you can actually do this as the thread isn't cut right through the pivot. It's only in the top half
