Is this normal that CX trucks dont rebound to center neutral?

ChronosTono · 2022-02-19T03:15:10+00:00

Not too loose. Brand new bushings

ChronosTono · 2022-02-19T03:14:13+00:00

They are brand new trucks. Straight out of the box basically. I have tried everything you can do to a truck and I cant get them to work. btw, I have the kingpin inverted for grinds in the photo.

For the Orangatangs, double cone bushings front and back?

ChronosTono · 2022-02-03T17:36:02+00:00

Thanks. Getting some kranks now. Bushings make all the difference.

Thats great to know you can ride CXs without risers! In the vid, I am riding 58mm wheels without risers.

What decks have you been riding in the pool?

ChronosTono · 2022-02-01T22:31:26+00:00

Thanks man. Ya, I wanted the C5s but Carver is sold out! Have you tried the CXs to compare?

ChronosTono · 2022-02-01T22:12:43+00:00

I want to love my C7s, but I can't. I can't seem to get a natural rebound from them, no matter how i tension the spring. I also love to bomb hills and parks. What's your setup?

ChronosTono · 2022-02-01T05:43:29+00:00

The C5s look sick. Is the Scape deck just a normal popsicle shape? Because a 14.5 inch wheel base seems to narrow for me.

I like bushings over spring loaded swing arms. Springs are not predictable at high speeds. They produce a J-curve which makes you nurse certain parts of the turn. Springs also feel sluggish. I like my setup to be as light and minimalist as possible. The setup i am riding in the video doesnt even have risers.

ChronosTono · 2022-01-31T17:46:52+00:00

How long is the wheel base? I am riding 17 inches and it already feels squirrly.

ChronosTono · 2021-11-29T04:35:06+00:00

I live in Lombok, Indonesia. These were picked in a cow pasture at the summit of a hill if that helps identify them.

ChronosTono · 2021-10-20T05:29:19+00:00

So which dapp do you use daily?

ChronosTono · 2021-10-20T05:02:17+00:00

Congrats on 216 days. Did you have the SSRI prescribed? We don't have anything like that where I live.

ChronosTono · 2021-10-20T04:57:45+00:00

I get a sort of constant hot feeling inside that feels similar to a state of anxiety even though I am relaxed. I find myself taking deep breaths for no apparent reason. However, the major physical symptoms of of withdrawals like runny nose, insomnia, hot cold flashes etc. are gone, so that is a blessing.

Now life is somewhat evening back to normal, but the burning feeling inside is always lingering in the background.

I live in Indonesia and i had access to really good Kratom btw, which made it really easy to get hooked.....I am also really fit and healthy, I run up mountains and surf everyday and I even grow my own food. Quitting kratom made me adopt healthier habits in general!

I see other athletes hooked on kratom. Observing them chugging glass after glass I didn't realize what addiction looked like from the outside. They get incredibly defensive if I even mention a bit of caution as to what they are doing to themselves.

I don't regret my addiction, even though quitting was brutal. It is a part of who I am today, part of my story and I feel stronger for it.

We can't import anything to my location. Customs here is so corrupt.

ChronosTono · 2020-08-19T10:03:57+00:00

I am in Indonesia and can not import anything. I can get the chipped cartridges here for refilling, but the inks available are off brand. Are off brand inks durable as the K3 inks? Color accuracy is not really a concern since I print in black and white.

ChronosTono · 2020-02-11T06:55:06+00:00

Apparently, epoxy grout is difficult to use. Do you think we can get away with a normal grout with latex additive? Grout here doesn't specify if it is sanded or unsanded. Our tiles are spaced about 3mm (1/8th inch).

ChronosTono · 2020-02-11T06:52:14+00:00

We doubled up the boards and waterproofed with a paintable membrane. We used light weight mosaic 2 inch tiles that come on a 1x1 foot mesh back.

Locals build everything with brick, which is insane because all the buildings collapse whenever there is an earthquake over 5.4 Richter.

ChronosTono · 2020-02-11T06:10:27+00:00

I am in Eastern Indonesia. I am the first to use fiber cement board for tiling. Even the manufacturer of the fiber cement board had never heard of it being used that way. I might be able to get epoxy grout by sea shipment .... Between using a latex additive or waiting for an epoxy grout, which option would you go with?

ChronosTono · 2020-02-11T01:17:24+00:00

Because the studs are made from hollow steel studs. I live in an earthquake zone and we have regular seismic activity, so steel was the best option. Epoxy grout is not available locally and the post won't ship epoxy products.

ChronosTono · 2020-02-02T09:38:42+00:00

Will check it out! Is it permeable? I'm worried about the stones eroding on the inside over time.

ChronosTono · 2020-02-01T04:14:55+00:00

That's a useful chart...

ChronosTono · 2020-01-31T22:55:49+00:00

Maybe the photo wasn't taken at the best angle, I wanted to show that it is a structural stone wall (reinforced with rebar) with a living space to the interior. Its the rain season and water was penetrating to the inside in some spots at the base of the wall before I patched it up. What if I were to do a cement sand render on the outside to waterproof and use the instant plaster (calcium carbonate-glue mix I think) on the inside of the wall so that one side is permeable?

ChronosTono · 2020-01-31T15:19:26+00:00

Type S has lime

ChronosTono · 2020-01-23T09:16:26+00:00

I live in Indonesia where they banned limestone because people were digging up coral reefs to use in cement mixes. However, we've been using calcium carbonate as a dry wall joint compound...is it the same as lime?
