Re: Inserts for Alconites?
I don't think so, better replace the tip ring, they are fairly reasonable pricewise and it's an easy job to do but just to make sure I'd say fire off a PM to ShaneH he'll be able to give you proper advise there.

Re: Inserts for Alconites?
yeh just replace the whole tip ring , and when you order a new one get 2 , then with the spare one melt hot melt glue into it and let it go cold , then just bring it with you as a spare , all you need to do then is whip off the old one , heat up the new one with a lighter and pop it on , or
just get it built with minima 4s

Re: Inserts for Alconites?
rod rings and things are brilliant to deal with and the minima range are brilliant as well.
