    The Indoor Cyclist's support thread

    Which possibly hurt them. If they did $1 a month every 18 months or so people may not be as shocked. Like every other price increase like this, some people will bitch and moan, some will cancel, most will probably pay up.

    What have you done to your bike today?

    Good luck. That Bottom Bracket sound could be something wildly dumb like one loose bolt in your front rotor. :) Did you swap your pedals? I'm assuming you did.

    What have you done to your bike today?

    Is this ever really an issue? Maybe @Steve Vai runs into way more issues as a bike mechanic, but I've never had an issue unthreading a BSA threaded bottom bracket that I previously installed with ample amounts of marine grease. Never into titanium but into aluminum and steel.

    That goes without saying! Luckily there's a second bathroom in this house.

    The DIY thread - DIYourself

    That's what I would have gone with. Backing Rod then thinner layer of silicone that dries for a day, then come back and then do the outer portion.

    The Good Deals Thread

    I bought a bike for my wife from them that I got at a huge discount because of the size and how old it was. Well built, well packaged when it arrived. It did take a few days before it shipped though, long enough we had to ask customer service. Apparently they have a bike mechanic go through...

    What have you done to your car today?

    My car benefits from the Civic ricer crowd as Honda probably used the same gas pedal/bracket in every car they made for a decade. The Amazon reviews were mostly "I installed this for my 4'10" wife so she could reach the pedals and it's great." as opposed to any spirited driving reason. And...

    What have you done to your car today?

    @UtahJoe Brakes last forever with a manual it seems. I finally changed my rotors/pads a month or so ago at 100,000 miles and could have left them, was just getting sick of the space they've been taking up. I ordered rear shoes and ended sending them back to Amazon when I realized it was the...

    Car-spotting thread

    Did you not pay attention when you were here? 100G buys a TON of Dodge Ram, light kit, wheels, lift kit and coal rolling emissions delete.

    Car-spotting thread

    Their stock price drop has to 100% be because of the cybertruck. How can anyone who sees one of those out in the wild not just go home and log into their brokerage account and hit SELL as fast as they can? I wonder if living in a small town in WNC I'll ever actually see one.

    EGO 21" Self Propelled Lawn Mower, Charger and 5.0ah Battery - $375 OBO

    I can't say enough good things about my Ego mower. It also folds up really well and stands up against a wall taking up very little space when not in use. That battery charger seems like a better form factor than the newer ones, I almost want to hunt one down knowing they exist.
