"Taken with a rear facing camera on a bike helmet" :LOL: from a photo by Monique Newton.
There's this thing going around about how the magpie's beak looks like the head of a seagull - can you see it?
When I collected mine, I spent a couple of hours in the carpark working on it / adjusting it before riding it home. It has been the same with motorcycles (dealers always have the chain too tight and the rear wheel not aligned).
You know you can stick your arm up when you hear them coming. Straight up; it works. Don't stress over it or blow lots of energy, just put your arm up before they get to you. It doesn't have to be vigorous - they don't want to fly into your arm
There is a lot of movement with chains, esp when "Having just ridden a rocky path at speed". I don't think that's a coincidence that it happened there. However, is your derailer clutch working / switched on?
This is only an issue if you race though, isn't it? For the rest of us there is still that balance of power / torque / battery usage. And there are many of us who don't use maximum settings.
I'm guessing you don't do drops or jumps. I'm not big on either - I'm still on small ones. I used to be very low pressure till I started drops etc. There's no need to have higher pressures if you don't need it though :)
these reviews should suit Australia too then. Re the assegai and wild enduro - for me I like the higher volume and round profile tyre (assegai) and prefer the tread. Admittedly I go by look of the tread and how it goes with my logic - the wild enduro does get great reviews. So long as we're...
Like g00gIe and ms and apple, they only ever tell you what is beneficial about this update to you; they don't tell how much of the update is for them (control, limititions, data / information gathering). I believe that many updates, in the world of computers and phones, are for the company; they...
for one thing, you'll always get a delay via gps speed readings; you're always seeing your speed from just back there :LOL:. You're putting absolute faith in various different things - the world doesn't work like that. Personally I've experienced insane information via gps.
If you mount a...
I found this interesting; it's theory from a hardtail perspective. I have a tannus insert myself, on the rear, and like it. I run it with the lowest weight sidewalls. I run a bit lower pressure; maybe 3 or 4 psi less?
I found this while I was looking for something else. Not the dimensions you need of course; it really looks like it would adapt well to bikes in the back of wagons.
Nice idea. It would be nice if you could place everything on a slide in table - I imagine this is something like what you have in mind. You could make sure the rear mech and rotors are not against anything too. Then just slide it in. Some low profile rollers would be good - even something simple...
What bike is this? I assume the alfine is the Di2 model - didn't know it existed till now. If you ride the bike, are you able to start in 1st and work your way up through the gears to 8th, changing just one gear at a time? Try doing this with the lowest, or if possible no assist, level. This way...
Geez, that's a blast from the past. It was old when I was a kid. Part of the swagman's attire to keep off flies. You can still buy those hats I think, albeit in tourist shops. Swaggies used to make their own, being folk of poverty due to the great depression. I think they were mostly returned...
