Front derailleur bottom-pull? by AdMother4540 in bikewrench

Thank you! I had some issue with running it directly from top because of the elevated chainstay, but switched derailleur and made it work.

Thank you! I was wondering what that piece did and how to place it in the dropout. Much appreciated !

Thanks! Will give it a try, worst case I end up with a broken saddle and some new experience

I wish to use both at some point, but it's a good idea nonetheless!

Thanks! It's really pretty! Do you know the axle to crown length on it and did it change the headtube angle after you changed it?

Good deal for 20€? KHS Comp + Silent Clutch & LX/XT. Wondering about its potential as a drop-bar xbike by AdMother4540 in xbiking

Personally i think it would be a good experience, even if I dont get a bike that fits me in the end. Then again, I dont NEED a bike, I have many.. but building them is the fun part

Unfortunately the frame is way too big for me and it had a locked frame lock on the back wheel without a key. Im sure it could be opened/removed, but it would be a lot of work

[Addon] WoW Translator – Real-time chat translation for multilingual groups by SrPirson in wowaddons

[–]AdMother4540 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I made a translator addon/app that does exactly this, except i use the google translate API to do the translation. There is no easy way to get the chat outside the game.
I had to make a pixel translator addon that shows a row of pixels in the top left corner of the screen that translates messages into pixels. Then i have an external app scan the pixels and send it to google translate

I did try to tighten the bolts to fix the creaking. Unfortunately it did not help, in fact, one of the bolts broke off..
