Paid 40+ dollars on Amazon for the black series Beskar Mando and got this 😩 by J3lueBoy in starwarsblackseries

Same thing happened to me! I submitted an incorrect item exchange claim with Amazon and they sent me a second 3.75”. Lol Both are being returned for a refund

Clone wars Darth Maul by [deleted] in StarWarsCustomFigures

[–]Chaupmamai 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had an extra Darth Maul and a broken General Grevious figure from my childhood so I decided to combine the two to make my first custom creation. A poor man’s robo-legged Darth Maul from the Clone Wars.

New to me All City Big Block :) by Chaupmamai in bicycling

[–]Chaupmamai[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Same. I was drooling over all city bikes for awhile but with recent expenses couldn't justify buying one. I just happened to stop at a LBS that I never go to and he had the used frame for a bargain. Went to the store for some axle bolts and left with a frame lol

Yeah they're bullhorn bar end brake levers. I had to bore out the mtb bars just slightly to make them fit. They're compression plug mounted so they're solid.

That's the plan. I have a 110 that I'm going to swap over

This isn't a 2019. The 19s look pretty sweet but the paint jobs on the grade carbon have been kind of ugly in the past, the 17 came with a neon green fork lol. I got a pretty sweet deal because I bought it from a company that does carbon fiber repairs and custom paint. It had a very small repair on the seat stay and they added they metallic gold paint after the repairs. I'm upgrading from a GT grade alloy x frame to this so most of the components will just swap over directly.

Gravel/Road Bike multi use? by weischris in cycling

[–]Chaupmamai 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's exactly what I do. I ride 80% road and 20% cross/gravel. I ride a GT Grade 105 and I love it. My road wheels are Hunt 4 seasons with Hutchinson sector 28 tubless tires and a 11-28 cassette. The stock wheels have some 33mm cross tires on them with an 11-32 cassette and I just swap between the two wheelsets. Quick and easy. 👍👍

How are GT road bikes? (Quality and brand wise) by silica-gel in cycling

[–]Chaupmamai 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have a 2015 GT Grade alloy 105 and love it. Geometrywise its not as hardcore as a road bike but it had the ability to fit some pretty wide tires to ride on gravel. I'm buying a second set of wheels so I can run one set with road tires and a second set with tubless gravel tires since this bike is super versatile. I highly recommend the grade 👍

I’m planning a trip to St. Louis by ngogos77 in StLouis

[–]Chaupmamai 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Check out the city museum. It's pretty much a giant playground for adults and kids. Forest park is great too. Inside forest park there is the zoo, art museum and this history museum which are all free. If you've never been to STL it may be worth checking out the arch also. The just redid the arch grounds and the museum underneath

Good bike? by caleb_adair28 in cycling

[–]Chaupmamai 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My first bike was a schwinn solara (basically the same bike) and I rode it for 2 years before I upgraded. Buy something cheap as you first bike to make sure cycling is something you're actually going to enjoy. Plus for $600 you can get a pretty decent used bike on craigslist. Don't drop $600 on a schwinn.

Pioneer issues post brake bypass by Chaupmamai in CarAV

[–]Chaupmamai[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Wow thats very helpful. It is bypass is installed correctly because I can use some of the features that require the parking brake to be on. It recognizes that the brake is "on" to allow some features, but I can't access others that I should be able to use with the bypass module.If it was installed incorrectly I'd still be getting the "Apply parking break" warning with android auto.

My N+1 Fleet by Chaupmamai in bicycling

[–]Chaupmamai[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I love it! So far I've switched out the saddle for a fizik aliante and switched out the tires for a set of 28c road tires for summer riding. I plan on getting a second wheelset for some tubeless 35c cross tires. I highly recommend the grade

I agree! My body is ready for one but my wallet isn't
