For your triple chainring setup, did you use a square taper bottom bracket? And did you use a "long" one to shift the chainline out to match the wider format of the Bridge Club please? Looking at building one up and trying to decide on a triple or double crankset.

Got one from new 71 plate , due to work cutbacks no use of the pool cars so have had to use duster to get to different locations in the UK so clocked up 98k , its been reliable, excellent mpg it has everything I need and more , sat nav, Bluetooth, had it regularly serviced using dacia parts , oil etc,all in all I would not hesitate on getting a new one, it's diesel all I have to do is fill it up and add blue , well done dacia

D'ya mind me asking where abouts you're from/located? I'm looking to buy one of these and would also like a couple of mods, I'm in Wigan. I'm a huge fan of the steels that come on the access rather than the alloys of the laureate. Is a lift kit necessary to accommodate the mud tyres? I also love the tyre noise 👍
@EllisonAdventures2 жыл бұрын
Hi pal, I’m also in Wigan. The lift kit isn’t needed for the mud tyres I just did that to increase ground clearance for green lanes and also the option to put bigger tyres on later. The steel wheels I have are tuff torque as mine is a laureate and has the alloys but obviously they will break if you hit something on a lane.
