Had it several years ago. In hindsight mine was overuse coupled with undiagnosed hip labral tear that likely changed my gait and positioning as...

That's funny, 'cause Larry got bought out about 5 years ago. We used to bring our pigs there for processing. Larry was a very humane and...

What do folks feel is the best FD choice for Dura Ace 9120 shifters and 44-30 chainrings (11-34 HG800 cassette)? I was planning on using a CX70 I...

Shimano used to suggest a "pro tip" of using brake fluid to lube the piston. With the pads out, wheel off, let the piston extend 2-3mm. then take a...

Wrong wrong wrong. EASY? Easy is a Nuvo Record FD, if it does not hit anything bend the barstard so it almost does and good to go. Sheesh. ...

I went through getting a new mtb last year, and getting bikes for my boys. I have to agree with poster above that the giant FS bikes are very nice...

Just did my 3rd xc mountain bike race of the year on some 42c deda shallows. I can’t imagine how different handlebars could have improved my lap...

Single digit temperatures at night are keeping the base solid and the fields have firmed up enough one can wander wherever. I am loving this.

I keep forgetting where Hartwick NY is, so I google it and the first thing I see on Google Maps is "Larry's Custom Meats". Which for a custom...

It’s starting to make sense now. I’d ramped up the distances carefully to avoid any kind of over-training risk, but, because most of my longer...

3t Superleggera handlebars with shimano shifters.

Will, So how wide are your carbon rims? I’m running Schwalbe ONEs in a 25 on old Mavic Aksiums. (Size 52 frame) I feel like I have veeery little...

OK, since I've found the adjustment of my 105 R7000 FD to be annoying as well and don't have a newer AD91 FD clamp handy I figured I'd slap on a 5700...

I rathe like Enves new AR road bar whereby the shifters sit vertically straight but then the flare starts.....they are also aero allegedly. External...

nice. this is the one I made a few years ago.

I have a couple flared bars in rotation, but the Cowbells are still my favorite. Have been for years. Agreed. Yep, every time I...

The derailleur has a barrel adjuster built in to it. You don’t need one any more The average rider asks a ton of their derailleurs with the 16t...

Shimano supplies a threaded pin with a safety clip with new brakes. The safety clip gets lost all the time, but isn’t a stand alone repair part one...

I should know better I am an IT system engineer. BUT BUT BUT...why should I have to expect to read a manual on the side of the road because my still...

Different physiology for difference btwn M vdP and Bernal. As for Alaphilippe, perhaps not fully on form. Otoh, this sort of steep ramps is...

It's all a bit subjective, but I wouldn't hesitate installing both bits.

Just pick up this atomic solar square last week. It's my first G-Shock and I wanted a yellow one and this model caught my eye. Purchased it from...

This thread captured my experiences with Shimano 10 and 11-speed front derailleurs. My summary: - 6600/7800 were the high water marks for Shimano...

After going through 2 sizes of Lake MX218 and 2 sizes of Specialized Recon wide shoes, both so close, I finally gave up and found NOS 2014...

8F here this morning with an inch of fresh powder, so we ski. If it really is 60F and sunny this week as advertised I will probably come back around...

Interesting tip on the bedding in, thanks. Sorry, what's a cotter pin? The pads seem to move properly and symmetrically, just doesn't want to...

I hope to get to it tomorrow... That's not a bad tip, thanks. I suspected that it shouldn't require tremendous force... It's possible...

I'm not insinuating anything. I can't stop you from reading into what I said, but there's nothing below the surface. Whatever you read down there,...

I have both styles and still prefer the older 11 speed front. It needs cable tension to work well.

There are a lot of other reasons they suck right now but this mech isn't one of them - Garro.

Good rule of thumb in life Before publicly bitching, RTFM!!!

You are doing it all wrong and blaming Shimano. They work amazing IF YOU SET THEM UP RIGHT and they are not like any other FD Watch the YT...

I just realized, I'm using the older style AD15 FD braze-on adapter not the SM-AD91 that's noted in the manual. No wonder that little support bolt...

Good stuff. Leaning towards the ti post but gonna wait until the bike arrives and dial in my fit. Will decide on stem at that point.

Looking forward to a big warm up next week. I really don't mind the cold, but the wind has been a bit extreme this past week. Heading out the...

Quite a few road bikes are 160/140. I've got 160/160 on the gravel, 180/160 on the MTB.

Ya, my problem was upstream, changed headset and stem length and it messed with tension. However, when you need to increase tension , it is not easy...

Looking at the slomo finish I wonder what the small chainrings were 42 ? 46?...

When traveling with my family, wife and 2 teenage girls, we do Airbnb if we are going to stay more than 1 night as we need the space. Probably done...

Thanks for doing the research, Jorn! Your google-fu is strong. Looks like the seals are the spring in the Shimano system. The groove anchors...

Ah right - I had forgotten about that. Fortunately not a problem on the family bikes.

Watching the "cult race of the spring" on Eurosport yesterday, I was struggling with the amount of dust the camera moto kicked up. There was no dust...

Is any phone better than another for navigation?
