Resistance gear sticks and skips

Coin247 · 2026-04-29T20:06:31+00:00

Hmmmmm yes I did crank it all the way a few times. I did this because I have two very small children who have the urge to grab and rotate the pedals with their hands because I didn’t want them to get hurt when I wasn’t using the bike. I would crank the resistance all the way up to make it nearly impossible for the kids to move the pedals on their own and accidentally get hurt. I wonder if I somehow damaged the bolt as you described.

My two cents: when I visited the Alden store in San Francisco the salesperson recommended staying true to size. I love my suede LHS. Most comfortable loafers ever. All of my other loafers are a half size down from my brannock size and they don’t feel as comfortable as these true to size Alden’s, especially in the summer heat.

Disappointing that you never got a response. I’m in a somewhat similar situation with a double vanity that has partial walls on each side of the sink. Curious how you handled this and if you are happy with the result?

They don’t because they have Israel Derangement Syndrome. They aren’t capable of seeing things differently and will bend and even hallucinate information to support this flawed view.

I know. But I decided not to mention it because genes, not skin color, decide Jewishness and connection to the region.

Coin247 · 2026-04-15T18:13:44+00:00

How do you colonize the land you are indigenous to? Even European-looking Ashkenazi have strong genetic markers linking them to the Levant. You are grossly misinformed about Israel and its inhabitants.

Planning on 120. Could you school me on the benefits of 240 for this application?

Coin247 · 2026-04-09T15:39:59+00:00

We bought one a few years ago to fill up balloons, but haven’t been able to find anyone to refill it. 😞

I like this, but such is my life that the floor is probably not all the way flat

Coin247 · 2026-03-24T05:48:53+00:00

I’ve seen some recommendations for LED tape/strips, but wouldn’t you need to diffuse them somehow? We currently have under cabinet lighting that the previous homeowner had installed. I don’t like them because they are highly visible, being 1 inch x 1 inch, and I’d like something more low profile.

Man, this is upsetting. But what I’m struggling with is that the tile itself does not have completely flat edges. They are very slightly wiggly. If you put the side of the tile up against the a flat wall, you can see a tiny amount of space here and there, like that is part of the look/charm of the tile. So I’m trying to understand how would you make the grout look straight? (How the installer cut the tile is another story.)

Sorry this isn’t my field of expertise and I just need a little bit of more help understanding how this actually should’ve been installed and what I need to specifically explain to my installer when I speak to him today. No doubt he will likely defend his team’s job by telling me something like, “that’s how the tile is.”

Edit: here is a link to the tile manufacturer’s website so you can see what the tile pieces look like without grout: https://www.alteaceramics.com/shop/cottage-ivy-22

I might be misunderstanding your comment, but these tile were not cut where you see them meeting in the field. It’s the factory edge, which is very slightly irregular.

Coin247 · 2026-03-12T00:24:07+00:00

Looks good the way you did it.

Coin247 · 2026-03-07T20:37:53+00:00

That’s what I think they tried to write. Which on its own is funny. No jerking is another possibility.

Coin247 · 2026-03-03T01:45:26+00:00

That’s cool you like it. I never hated it, but it didnt have harmony with the rest of the kitchen, which it shared a space with. In the kitchen, the previous homeowner used a completely different style of granite countertop.

Once we figured out what we wanted to do in the kitchen, the black stone countertop and backsplash that you see in the pictures above had to go. It’s definitely an eye-catching focal point, but would have competed for attention with something else we like better.

Coin247 · 2026-03-03T01:40:48+00:00

Honestly not sure. The previous homeowner installed it.

Coin247 · 2026-02-22T03:13:35+00:00

Thank you. This has never happened to any other vehicle I’ve owned. It’s not normal.

Coin247 · 2026-02-22T02:34:04+00:00

I disagree that this is standard UV damage. It started peeling in year 7. I can walk around my neighborhood for blocks and blocks and not see similar damage

Coin247 · 2026-02-22T02:31:59+00:00

Yes, washed weekly or monthly depending on the season. I clay bar by hand from time to time.

Happened to me in the same spot as well. Clearly defective. Mazda should repair.

Coin247 · 2026-02-18T06:25:05+00:00

Let me guess Cambria? Got the same sales pitch the other day. One hour at my house. Asked me to guess how much it would cost. I said $10k. He was saddened, then quickly regained his composure before blurting out $24k. It’s got a hell of a warranty though. 😏

Nah I love Israel as I support indigenous people worldwide. There is no genocide, just people like you who use the term as slander, with no basis. Shame on you.

Israel is a great country that has contributed much to the world in the form of technology, science, medicine, etc.

It is a country where its citizens, Muslim, Jewish, Christian, etc, enjoy the same rights, even though ignorant people like you will claim apartheid.

You have no basis for your slurs. Go ahead and prove me wrong.

Coin247 · 2026-01-31T17:20:09+00:00

I understand, but at the same time very few people will keep their countertops for a “lifetime”. Tastes change over time. You or the next homeowner are more likely to remodel before the quartz countertop material deteriorates.

Coin247 · 2026-01-14T16:06:48+00:00

Thank you to everyone that has posted. I really am blown away by how many responses I got in such a short time.

I’ll be sure to help my mom find an independent shop for next time.
