Thanks. Amazingly its more expensive than the shifter

So, I got an I-spec B brake lever and an I-spec II shifter. Any hacks available or just go buy the band on shifter?

Very nice

I’m trying to replace a bb un51 with a un55 but cant get it in :-/ my bb tool sucks but thats not the problem.

Solved by trying another bottom bracket with deeper groves for the tool.

If i could have both a red and a high viz yellow smp on my bike i would :-)

Looks great!

Then it's settled

You are correct!

I’m putting a rigid mtb together for my wife. It will serve as commuter but also go bike packing. She cycles to work every day but’s not into cycling in any sports/obsessive oriented way.

Im considering what casette to combine with a single 38t chain ring. I want her to be able to climb with luggage on the bike. Is 46t over kill? 42t? What say you?

So sweet

Awesome!

Nice!

Its not the most perfectly aligned wheel out there but this has always been the case. Could be this in combination with something else.

Otherwise nothing has changed more then the fact that a winter passed and the bike was stored out with out cover.

The cable is squeaking and feels weird tho. So will get a new one asap.

I think the cable is toast and new pads wont hurt. I just couldnt see the correlation between the cable and this super eject bite.

Yes

Probably check on some of those. Ill start with new cables and pads :-) thanks

I encountered a new to me problem where the front v-brake of my gfs bike suddenly bites to a full stop nomatter hard or soft the lever is squeezed.. does anyone know how to counter this? Would rather not have her eject over the bars if possible :-)

I’ll ask the local auto shop if they have one :-)

Thanks! Tried a similar version with arms once but it could grip the arm. This looks better!

I’m as always really impressed with your craftmanship. Tijmens bike looks great and so does your daughters. I wish I could give this to my daughter who loves cycling and is quickly growing out of her frame and gearing. Top job!

Top tinkering here

Trying to the cranks off of my Marin without much luck. Afraid to strip the threads I am now adding penetration oil and cycling with the bolts undone. Any other tips?

Party time, excellent.

This bike is so good
