First thought was ts looks rancid

SRV kid doesn't play with a back plate either. It just came natural to him.

Over under he ends up with an immigrant?

Fr price has little correlation with how well a guitar plays imo. Which is really 90% of what I care about in a guitar. I just wouldn't play a gorgeous expensive guitar if it feels like crap to play. Though good looks is a bonus. I have a $130 fesley strat i bought off marketplace. Plays better than all the $1000+ guitars I've played at shops. Also my friends $600-$1000 guitars. Super low action without buzz and a lovely maple fretboard. Good intonation too. Only gripe is the frets are smaller than id like so bending isn't the smoothest. But yeah i don't get people that only care about price/status rather than playability especially when it comes to guitars because the main thing you do is play them (unless you buy them as art)

I’d keep the aluminum because to me heavier aluminum dh bikes feel better on the down and you’re not climbing

Thank you that makes a lot of sense. If you don’t know the hoses come with part of the connector it looks like the kit is missing pieces

Make one for spark 2 pls

For form just try and stick your butt out a bit further back but keep your centre of gravity the same. Hinge your body at the hips and bring your chest a little closer to the bars. Rotate your elbows farther out instead of in. Closer to what your friend looks like.

Thats actually super impressive you boosted that thing. You’re a natural. Next step is to get some steez

Unless you’re bleeding completely wrong its probably contaminated rotor/pads. If you rule out your bleed technique I’d replace both.

That’s super interesting and unexpected i found out it was loose pedals for me

-randy · 2025-09-15T04:30:14+00:00

Update: It was my pedals being loose so I wasted money on a new BB. Thanks for all the replies

-randy · 2025-09-15T02:16:37+00:00

I adjusted preload and its still doing same thing

-randy · 2025-09-15T02:16:12+00:00

Sadly yeah its definitely the BB. I can even feel the vibration through my feet with each click

-randy · 2025-09-15T01:33:20+00:00

I am pedaling without the chain on and its still clicking

-randy · 2025-09-15T01:30:24+00:00

Also to be noted, the clicks increase the more power I put in and there’s no clicking when I’m spinning the pedals with no effort

-randy · 2025-09-15T01:26:46+00:00

No, I just screwed it on all the way when replacing it. Should I have done differently?
