    Still down. I am in Poland right now connected through my PiVPN in FL.

    I can’t imagine whatever provider they have are using has had this long of an outage. It almost has to be something on their end. Heads would be rolling if any of the major providers were down this long. Especially this time of year, most facilities don’t allow any sort of work to be done so they minimize any chances of an outage during the shopping season.

    Tried with the VPN off and still no luck.

    Seems like if your DNS server or system had the address cached you can access it. But the domain is apparently on a hold status, so many DNS servers will not resolve the domain.

    Hey if you don't mind me asking, what cycle computer are you using? I am looking to get the dual sided reading. I know it has to be the ant+ or at least that is my understanding. I had the single sided, power meter, pedals and just used my I phone. The blue tooth just doubles the reading from one of the sides from what I have read. Anyways, looking at the ant+ cycle computers and I am getting more confused the more I research.

    I have a Garmin 520 which needs to be replaced. I replaced the battery this year and cracked the screen and broke the seal in the process so it's no longer waterproof.

    I'll likely replace with a Garmin 130 Plus. It does anything I need. The usual basics, power, and simple navigation. If I didn't need navigation I'd consider the Edge 25. It's as bare bones as it gets.

    Depends on your needs. Most computers have a ton of functions that most people don't use. All (of the main brands) are Ant+

    DCRainmaker has a ton of super-in-depth reviews on all the top contenders. Let me know what specifics you're looking for and I can help narrow it down.

    Thank You, yeah I was thinking the Garmin 130 was the way to go. I have no need for navigation so I will look at the Edge 25 for sure. I am just wanting to get an actual dual sided reading from the power meter pedals.

    I wasn't thinking...the 25 won't do dual sided. The 130 will.

    The 130 is really all most need but I sell 500 series and 800 series computers all day long in the shop. Ha

    No worries.

    I will warn that the one major downside to the Garmin 130 is the battery. If you're not doing epics or repeated off-grid days you'll be fine. Garmin overstates their battery life a fair bit and you won't see 12 hours with the 130 in the real world. Depending on your use bank on 8 to 10 hours.

    Bc marking an overpriced product down 30% just brings it in line with WAO newest wheels which were on sale for the same price recently at only 15% off. So roughly $400 cheaper base price.

    Anyone want to go to Windrock, weather pending this weekend? @honda50r @levie125

    Any reason you’re looking at those vs buying other options that are potentially equal/better for the same price standard? Said other options can be acquired for less with coupons/discounts that are readily available. WAO/Nobel specifically, and others just recently with BF pricing.

    Unfortunately you're right.

    Hate to say it but weight. Convergence/Revolution WR1's are the best value by far but they're hovering 1900g's. Nobl is my second choice but they're also at ~1750g. Was hoping to go sub-1600g. Might wait and save up for some Berds.

    IDK if its the configurator but the WAO build comes with 1/1's too.

    GF had Reynolds/torches on her xc bike and never had any issues.

    For sure late, I generally don’t know my weekends till maybe beginning of same week and sometimes 2 weeks early if I’m lucky.

    Also who wants a deal on a 5010, if the prices were like this all the time I feel it’s very fair. Lower than pre cov.

    Quick question for you guys. I needed a set of 9x100/10x135 wheels for a new rigid SS build. I reached out to a professional wheel builder and agreed on I9 1/1 hubs laced to Stan's hoops. When I received them, the hubs are 1/1 Road hubs. Should I have any concerns about using road hubs for MTB?
