  1. A few days ago I ordered a Torker CX wheelset and I called asking if the
    Nimbus Rounded Crown frame would fit and he said it would. So I
    ordered the wheelset and the frame and they arrived yesterday and the
    frame did not fit. So now i need to return the frame and order the
    Torker CX frame. Which mean just more money to pay for shipping.

    Whats that all about?

  2. In personal experience, when asking if part X will work on part Y or if
    part Z comes with part X's mounting accessories....hear it from Amy or
    take what you hear with a cup of salt. I've had that happen before and
    usually its just a matter of a quick answer from the rep. on the phone
    rather than a researched answer. Some employees will look into things
    for you when you ask and it will be obvious with a "hold on one second,
    let me make sure this will work" rather than a "well, yeah, should
    work".

  4. It would be nice to know -_how__-it doesn't fit. Clearance to the
    crown? Bearing spacing?

    Ride everywhere and never just ride anywhere. If you can ride where you
    are going within a hour, do it, and if you can do a trick 50-75% of the
    time do it along the way.

    get much better and maybee turn pro one day.

  5. bearing space. the wheels bearings are too close to the wheel which
    makes the frame over clear them would that be possible to fix? because
    the frame fits on the bearing perfect its just that not in length.

  7. The CX uses both a different sized bearing and a narrower hub than most
    nimbus hardware. I don't think you'll be able to make one fit with the
    other easily as a few friends and I noticed when we took all of our
    cycles apart for cleaning and truing. Out of curiosity, what are you
    trying to gain by putting a new frame on a CX?

  8. uhm
    you can bend the legs of the frame inward a little and not hurt much of
    anything.

  10. If anyone else ever has to send stuff back to UDC, if you ask, they'll
    give you a shipping tag thing.

    even then, why would you want a cx wheelset? and why buy it part by
    part like that? just get a torker lx and be done with it.

  14. If it's their fault, as it appears to be, then they should pay shipping
    for you to return your frame, and to ship you a new frame. I understand
    UDC US sends you some kindof label to send you parcel back, rather than
    just giving you the cash like UDC UK does.

    Are you using Hotmail, Gmail or Yahoo etc, cause your block filters
    maybe preventing them from sending you the conformation. 😕
