All Things Bikes and Tacos! (...and every vehicle imaginable)

also, its supposed to be vertical, so i think they are on the correct side

i guess i dont really know, google images is showing it both ways

 

Hm, would you be willing to make me an S for the front of my bike? I still haven’t done anything with the weird magenta S haha

 

When displayed vertical, the union (blue) is in the upper left corner as viewed.

 

sure. i dont have the equipment currently but ill be able to in a couple weeks.

 

ahh. oops

 

I just don’t know how to measure it for someone to make it for me, but if you already have that covered...then it makes it easy.

 

pretty sure all specialized headtubes are similarly sized

 

Die, knockoffs!

 

Did I take a quick 10 mile ride in 30 degree weather and freeze my fingers off just so I could hit 2000 miles for the year? Why yes. Yes I did.

 

I recently adjusted my fork psi. Now when I get off the bike, the fork pushes back up to the top, but stops short about a quarter inch. It’s really annoying to ride it like that. Any solutions.?

 

I think the 3/4 is my next helmet, also. My trail rides have evolved into "let's scope out this sketchy huck to flat" with riding buddies

 

Bought some mechanix gloves per recommendations on this thread. Took advantage of those 30% off sales.

Gotta few different pairs coming in to throw in the vehicles even.

 

hahha.... oh that happens to you too?

Had a good one last week.... pedaled up this little single track ridgeline waiting for some friends on a climb... seemed pretty mellow on way so I was pinned back down to the fire road. I thought to myself "oh sweet, I'm going to send it back on the fire road at the bottom" thought it was like a 2 foot drop... ended up being more like a 4-5ft drop to a slight up hill at like 20mph .. bottomed out so hard I almost blew myself off the bike lol ass hit the tire and even ripped my bibs underneath. #badlinesgoodtimes haha

 

Niiice. Sounds like the same reason I don't run composite pedals anymore. I'm too hard on stuff

 

This is the first year that I've left mine installed for more than a month now. I do think about it when I'm parked at some of the more remote trailheads, but I guess I'm just willing to take the risk.

 

Well, you chose the G-String of tailgate pads so I’m sure it’s more at risk of theft. You not only have to worry about bike enthusiasts but pervs hanging out at the trailhead.

 

giggity

 

Anybody ever run Teravail tires?

 

Yep. I had the sparwoods for a while and was really happy with them as a commuter/ bikepacking/xc hybrid on my hardtail. I got a honcho and an ehline that I'm planning to put on soon for something a bit more aggressive.

 

Eyeing the Kessel. Looks like a DHF clone.
