Strava says I can maintain just under 200W for 3-4 hours.

+1 for west systems g-flex epoxy. Works really well for cracked white water kayaks and many other repairs. Welding is an option if you want the seams to look perfect, like you would need for motorcycle fairings, but if you place fiberglass cloth with epoxy around the cracks it will be much...

I am trying to get my PF30 out and it's being stubborn. I got bigger hammers, but what about heating titanium alloy? Would it affect the frame in a negative way?

EPA should start paying attention to oil consumption. 5l + 100ml/100km is not good for the environment.

Holes are standard M5. They are on both sides, but they do not go through to the axle or derailleur hanger. Yes I got it. I am not overly stoked on it, but I will see if it grows on me. 1. Between hauling my tools, shoppings and carrying my lock I really like the slim profile axium rack. I am...

What's up with these dropout eyelets? Can a rack be installed on these eyelets?

I am looking at either a 2007 lynskey R150 or a 2005 litespeed t5 gravel. It's hard to find exact specs but it looks like the litespeed is lighter and takes larger tires.

With everything on my 61cm JTS weights 23.4 lbs. That's with no particularly fancy parts and a axiom streamliner road dlx rack (1.12lbs). I would like to stay in that range, or preferably bellow.

I was torn between getting a steel rove and an aluminum jake the snake. Realistically I need both but this year the supply is dry. With Kona's warranty I would have been ok to buy a new JTS and beat on it for 10 years. With 650 wheels it should do ok on the light mtb trails I don't want to slog...

What do you guys think about titanium frames? Seems like on paper is an amaizing material, by in reality due to is very sensitive manufacturing requirements it often ends up cracking.

Nevermind I have bigger issues. RIP this bike hauled two saddle bags full of tools for work, rode it like like a BMX in town and beat on it like a MTB on gravel and worse. The timing really sucks though. Sent from my Pixel 5 using Tapatalk

Lots of 29er wheels but they all are disk brake.

I am looking for some wide 700c wheels to put my big tires on. They also have to have rim brake. The right choice would be the hunt 4 season, but I can get some really cheap single wall alex x101 wheels with Acera FH-T3000 hubs. 19.7 internal width. Being single wall they would be fairly light...

How could enlightment and an expanded consciousness not benefit both parties? Sent from my Pixel 5 using Tapatalk

Have them go to Trinity bellwoods with some shrooms and a slackline. Sent from my Pixel 5 using Tapatalk

I am supposed to take a treatment that will immunocompromise me for a while. Specialist recommended I get the vaccine before the treatment. I am very healthy, fit, and seldomly get a cold but **** happens and my immune system decides to chew my myelin occasionally. I will not be...

I did not end up using the 42 that much. I used the 32 SKs for less than 10 months for daily commute and rides. The rolling resistance is good for such a tire. They have a very soft casing, which lowers rolling resistance but also makes them flat prone. I got them mostly because in the winter I...

The shifting feel on my 11spd 105 is considerably worse than the 10 SPD. The 10 SPD required less travel to upshift compared to the 11 SPD. I stuck a spacer in the mechanism and it's better but I still liked my 10 SPD more. 11 SPD is worth it on climbs. There's a bunch of misinformation on the...

Stand by. Next project will be to convert my 80s 10spd to modern 2x10. The biggest challenge is that the smallest cog doesn't clear the chainstay. I am thinking I will end up grinding off the teeth on the 11 cog. Sent from my Pixel 5 using Tapatalk

See what are the biggest less harsh tires you can fit. It can make a big difference. I have the gp500 32. Not only are they noticably faster than my cx tires, they are also super comfy. Sent from my Pixel 5 using Tapatalk
