The “What did you break today?” thread

whatever that’s supposed to mean

Pounds (force) per square inch (area)
Basically what stress the vice can withstand

 

[MrSimmo]

Pro tip:
Next time remove the axle and non driveside bearing (attached) BEFORE putting the wheel in the vice mounted ratchet tool.

You're welcome.

Good call

mangled the XX1 chain, managed to get the pins out and stick another speed link in with the help of the one-up tool and most importantly a rag to hold the bloody tool still while I unscrewed the pins out of the chain. Otherwise it would have been a long push and roll back to the car.

A few weeks ago.... LBS found a sheared a non replaceable Bosch motor mount on my 1 year old Cube when replacing a cable under warranty..... Luckily Bosch covered it under warranty and I had a new free motor supplied and fitted in just over a week

I'd put over 2000 miles on the motor in year one, so nice to get a fresh zero miles one for free

I think I my rear cassette Tried to climb a steep short hill with absolutely high cadence -> Bosch stopped assisting -> MAYBE there was a gear change I don't know.

Anyway there's zero possibility that it could have been just the NX-cassettes weakness in normal use.

Last week I stripped the motor bolt holes on my brand new Heckler. Today I blew out the bladder on my brand new Magura MT7 brakes. I'm 0-3 with Magura brakes. Swapping them out for the SRAM Code RSC's.

Not today but on my first ride down the road to set things up, my long denims got caught in the chain guide and snapped it off clean. Riding without the chain guide since and it's fine.

as this is the “What did you break today?” thread......

not today but a fortnight ago, I lost contact with a pedal and stamped my left foot on the floor - that floor being a rock staircase at speed in my local bikepark

broken heel and maybe more, obviously not riding, walking or working so going Stir-crazy stuck in the house with a load of jobs outstanding including all our cars MOT's expiring soon so great timing

Bikes fine though

moan over

Rich.
