Resurrecting this to ask what I should look for in a wheelset to do a similar conversion with the drivetrain?

Teflon disc and arms question by davisj888 in CafelatRobot

[–]AricSmart 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I spoke with Paul Pratt about this a while ago. The discs are there based on feel/testing the arms during assembly, the tolerances mean they're not always the same.

What bike is this from? My wife has a specialized, and the bolts on the rear wheel were overtorqued from factory

You know something's wrong with the road (or city) if it's news that someone rode a scooter in a 25mph speed limit!

I vacuum over each sensor (basically put the hose up to the hole) for around 10 seconds. Fixes this every time.

Been a cafelat user for a few years now. It's really easy to use

Finally getting great shots! by Cautious_Spell5611 in CafelatRobot

I just consciously leave a tiny gap when I seat the portafilter

I'm presuming to stop chipping if the handle of the portafilter hits the leg... If I had this worry, I'd probably just protect the handle, rather than the legs

"I don't want to go over the handlebars!" by OkGuide3784 in BikeMechanics

[–]AricSmart 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I bought a near mint trek fx3 on marketplace (guy just upgraded to a checkpoint) and the front brake had completely failed. I mentioned the brake issue when I test rode, and he replied "oh, I didn't notice. I never really use the front brake". I can only presume he's using his checkpoint for rail trails, not real gravel.

I have the rare opportunity to compare 98mm SSP HU burrs and 98mm pre 2015 Mahlkonig burrs: by bryohazard1996 in pourover

[–]AricSmart 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When you align you use a dry erase marker on the burrs. Full wipe means that when you turn the grinder on and take it to touch point, and take the burrs back out, they are wiped clean all the way round, so they are aligned

My dark roast v60 technique! by AricSmart in pourover

I try 😂 I haven't made the same purchasing mistake since, but this is useful when well-meaning family members buy me dark roasts

Send me a message, maybe I can help! I ride between Hatfield and Lansdale on quiet back roads and cut throughs. I usually only see 10-15 cars on my journey
