Mavic AllRoad Disc - Parts Required

Submitted by GlennT on Sun, 09/24/2023 - 4:11pm

I was wondering if anyone has been able to source Mavic wheel replacement parts. I discovered that the ratchets on my AllRoad Disc rear wheel were rusted together. Strange thing is, the bike was used two weeks ago and then stored inside. Perhaps water got into the freehub

I am specifically looking for part # V2251701 KIT ID360 2 Ratchets + Spring + Grease

This is a rebuild kit.

I tried the Mavic website but since they went out of business (or emerged from going out of business) there is no customer service contact details. There are sites in the UK that reference the part but it seems they are all sold out

If anyone has had experience with Mavic wheels and parts, please reply

Thanks

Stiching in my shorts seems to wear out, Need a fix

Submitted by Rmarcus on Sun, 09/03/2023 - 4:56pm

Hi Folks, 

I seem to wear out the inner right seat stiching that holds the chamois in place.

This happens on several pairs of Pctimo bib shorts and I think it's "ME" and not in itself the quality of the shorts.

I have had fixes through warranty and local tailors who stitch them up. Using several pairs allows the issue to not be crucial but am looking for a tailor or company who speacializes in these sort of repairs. When the tailor fixes them, they do last a fair amount of time but also may be the thread type.

 

As I am NOT a seamstress I can tell that Pactimo uses a straight 3 row stitch and the shorts that last longer use a Coverstitch method and that lasts longer but the Pactimo brand are more comfortable. Thoughts?
