Has anyone with more talent and potentially a 3d scanner/printer upload any of the port covers with enlarged ports to shapeways yet... Cuz you know that would be one hell of a community service...
Search earlier posts in this thread and the other HD3 thread. One of the regulars (Maybe Budgie???) has designed some. I did a quick look and didn't find it, gotta work....but it's here somewhere.

You mean these?





I've been buried at work & haven't had time to print them yet & confirm fit, but if anyone wants to play guinea pig then PM me for the STL files. With the ones available on Jenson these might be pointless, but the combo versions might be useful to someone (like the commonwealth brake-flippers). Quick check on pricing at Shapeways these will run you about $3USD per port. If I could figure out how to post the files for free, I would.

As for the third port on the right in the Jenson photo, I have no ruddy idea what that is. My frame has two port styles, skinny and fat.

Anybody know the weight of the HD3 in the stock XO1 Worx kit?

What would e the benefit of upgrading to the carbon Next SL pedals? I'm trying to decide if the upgrade is worth the $ Thanks!

I think you meant Next SL CRANKS. Next cranks are very light and some think they're quite handsome. My guess would be the weight advantage being the Next SL biggest features for the $$$ required to buy them.

big thanks to budgie!
first quik print test. have to play with hte printer settings or modify the holes a bit but first test looks good! :thumbsup:
the frame for fitment testing is still 2-3 weeks away though.

 
Budgie,

Thanks for the time and effort!
Yessss !! Thanks a lot ! No problem with the files.

I've ordered some on Sculpteo ! 1 x fat blank, 1 x fat 4.4 and 2 x skinny blank

I should received them the 17th of february. I'll let how the fit the frame if I'm the first who printed them with professionnal printers

 
Supposed to take her out on her maiden voyage but wouldn't you know it a burr in the port ruptured my reverb line. My trip to the trail head turned into a trip to the LBS for a new hydrolic line.

Very nice. I like the simplicity of the black throughout without a lot of noisy colored bits...my kind of build.

Tell me more about the ruptured reverb line, not sure I understand the cause correctly, but I definitely want to avoid the same result.

Thanks. I started a separate thread to see if it's just an issue on my bike, but in essence my dual ports look like the were anodized first then machined. The edges where the cables enter the port are sharp and raised and eventually cut my reverb line. I should've looked more carefully and filed them down. Maybe I got a bad batch?
