My twin brother (that I do not have ;) ) got an HTA infraction on May 14 2023 (Mothers day). Filed with the courts within 2 weeks of receiving ticket. Notice of trial came in the mail at he beginning of March 2024, with a court date set for My 16 2024. Asked to move the court date (simple form...

I found an auto oiler at a fraction of what it would cost new from Tutoro. Willing to try it and see how it goes.

@GreyGhost What ever happened to your incoming power issues? I may have missed the posts.

Great. Thank you.

OK, so I took the wheel off and this is what the chain looks like. Is this to tight? I don't think I found any kinked links. I feel like it should be moving more freely and flowy.

Be careful with CT and their return policy on bikes. If you paid for it, it is yours forever. Regardless if you left the store with it or not.

Some stores use a third party contract to assemble. I know of the guy that does it in Milton. They are paid by the bike. Not that they are mechanics but I know in this case, the family has been in the bicycle business for years.

In short. What is a good or acceptable (not harmful) chain cleaner? Long. I am looking at getting an auto oiler. Simply because I am not good with keeping up with chain maintenance etc. I will be taking the rear wheel off to get the tire swapped so I figured it will be a good chance take...

Will the VStrom 800DE be there?

I guess we both put the nice weather to good use. You go your reno done, I picked up tires (and a rain suit). Win win.

You are right, its not the typical tiny house. It actually looks much smaller in real life, but it still cannot be towed.
