WheelsMFG has a conversion bearing for BB86 -> BB30 spindle, but spindle must be longer than 104mm to work with the BB86 shell. Cannondale Experts...

Checking in: I had my second dose of Pfizer five days ago. The only noticeable side effect was a sore arm for a day or two. So glad that science,...

I love Gattonero's photos of before and after.

Yes, she is fine. Already done pilates and now taking her French lessons. She says she is at 80% but that's 110% for most humans.

Incoming... (from Italy, so no doubt quite slowly - I'll be amazed if it lands within the month): Master Piu Decor. Something about the name...

Heeeere's Andy:

So apparently not actually stuck - just tight; and he didn't have a spare saddle to attach to the seatpost to help him pull it out. I'm reserving...

longer spindle won't work because it will throw off the chainline and q factor. you are right that there's not enough spindle even without the...

Thomas...Fox Chapel area about 6 miles NE of Pittsburgh...the pink dogwood is in the backyard.

C&O ride this weekend. I should take some pics of the neighborhood- the azaleas and eastern redbuds are flowering riotously at the moment.

Firewood season got started in earnest for me this weekend. I bucked and split two medium (18-20" at the base) red oaks that came down over the...

^^^ Where is that?

Sounds like you already want to try some new bars- doooo it. Buying and trying mtb bars is way more fun and less faffing with electrical tape than...

They were not able to purchase the tubing mill. Deal fell apart.

Yeah I’m not saying you don’t also have all these muscular issues. Just that you are now in a different category of vigilance. My mother thought...

The NYT newsbrief this morning's little piece comes to mind...

You forgot to mention that Claudia feels fine. SPP

I watched the RAD videos on the Joy of Bike YT Channel https://youtu.be/HyppZOpHocM https://youtu.be/rHagRovHSYs and then measured my mountain...

Feeling pretty good actually. Injection arm feels a bit weird from shoulder to elbow, but then my right hip feels weird but that just from driving...

Already PM'd rwsaunders to gratefully decline as I still have a couple in waiting, but wanted to thank him publicly for his generous offer. Class...

As I approach the milepost of being vaccinated after a year of anticipation I find my point of view shifting along these lines: I worked with an...

I have an order in with these folks. I’m all for supporting US businesses making products with textiles milled here. Nice prices and their ethos...

Where is Gattanero ? This should be his thread.

Keep in mind I know next to nothing about Japanese knives. That said, that blade looks *really* thick at the spine. It looks thin at the edge, but...

I'm with Jorn. There is nothing "typical" about this situation when you have had cancer surgery on that leg. You should seek input from your...

Thanks, I'm just here for the pics.

hmm so much has changed since 2016. lotta folks posting here aren’t even in the game now.

that sounds great. Also, Jim has a point. Something I teach clients who are nut job cyclists who tend to have over developed lateral thigh muscles...

More pictures or I'm changing the title of this thread to Rusty Parts Confidential

Went looking for a lab back in 2005. Wound up with an American Eskimo. Today I'm on my 2nd. Also great companion and running dogs. Even though its...

I don't run anymore because my bad leg got bowed off straight a degree or two so biomechanically running doesn't feel right to me and I ran in hs and...

These arrived, now looking for some rims...

Bad photo, dirty truck - none of it matters, this bike is OM_G good. I've tried out and let pass a bunch of bikes during this covid stay at home,...

I changed the rear tire on my MTB today. WTB Vigilante 29X2.5" with two years worth of Orange Seal top-offs. The inside of the tire looked like a...

I know this pain has to be related to some pretty major atrophy to my quadriceps on my right leg. yeah, i've gone through lots of sports rehabs...

Marianne Vos celebrated a bit early for a veteraan and looked a bit concerned when jonge Vollering ripped past. Moolman-Pasio saved SD Works' bacon...

The nicer the bike and components that come into the shop, the less they know about maintenance, in my personal opinion! haha

Ugh! This kind thing is the bane of my existence in my line of work. Different than bikes, but just same. I had a guy who said to me " Yeah this...

Just posting for memories sake. I can still kick myself for letting it go.

One thing that you learn when riding in an area that’s riddled with hills and water...dealing with riding in fog, especially in early Spring and late...

Exactly what I thought. Prescient book.
