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

And never ride your bike, like me.

 

I’m starting to ride again. Just put some fresh grips on and figured out my system to carry the bike on the new whip.

 

Might be time for a new chain

 

Nice truck. I love those F150 tremors. Great rigs

 

Bought a new to me gravel bike off pinkbike and it's arriving today. I've refreshed the tracking 1000 times already and it's finally out for delivery!!!

 

Nicely done!

 

Needs a little more tightening - it might get loose!

 

Cheaper than a new cassette and easier to find

 

any of you use gorilla tape for a tubeless setup? I bought a fat bike and am going to convert to tubeless. I have always used specific sized rim tape for the job, but with the width of the rim and amount needed, it seems like a good case for the monkey tape.

 

I've used it a fair bit especially for things like fat bikes. If you need to make it a different width cut it, don't rip it, to avoid frayed edges. Make sure you press it down on every part of the rim. I usually use a plastic putty knife.

Don't leave it on there forever. I wouldn't leave it on for more than a season otherwise it makes a sticky mess trying to remove it.

Other than the weight, and the fact that it eventually degrades and makes a mess on your rims, it works pretty well.

 

This ^^^^^^

 

Snow Summit - used to race downhill there, lots of fun and memories, especially when I got to see the inside of the hospital after a race

 

A bit more abstract than the TRD looking Pinkbike jersey but GodandFamous just re-released their old-Toyota-inspired jersey. I have a few items from them and they're a nice bit of kit if you're lookin' for the tight stuff.

Looks like a 1UpUSA split in half?
Was that a roof rack or taken off a hitch rack?
Looks like a good solution.

 

Had to be a hitch rack, roof racks are a solid chunk of aluminum.

 

Looks like it's probably the van rack

 

Replaced the Maxxis Ardent race tires on my Fathom with a DHF & DHR. I should definitely notice the difference but can’t wait to ride in the new rubber. I also had my derailer replaced under warranty as it’s been giving me issues and was bent during my last ride.

 

Literally just grabbed tires to go the other way on my Instinct. The Minions are more than I need around these parts.

 

I ended up going with DHF in the front and a Rekon in the rear. If I can get hands on the new forekaster I’ll probably try that
