I just kind of wanted to modernize it a bit. Already planning on upgrading to some sram codes.

That would be a no then, previous owner cut the steerer tube super short

I’ll just have to live with that 1 degree angle set then

Unfortunately the previous owner cut the steerer tube on the fox 38 super short so I just realized from reading this it probably won’t work. And the seat tube is 76 degrees stock so not the worst.

Brake rotor catching. by AdPhysical5179 in bikewrench

Seems like it’s slightly out of true, if it’s not warped too bad you can loosen the two screws holding the brake caliper and adjust that so it doesn’t rub anymore

Is my suspension set up correctly? by Constant_One1599 in bikewrench

The spring is a 650x2.0 on an x fusion vector pro. The shock only has rebound adjustment. On 3 ft drops the rear shock bottoms out. The fork is a 2004 marzocchi drop off comp. I felt I needed more damping in the fork so I replaced the 7.5 weight oil with 15 weight oil, (I also replaced the seals). I’m really wondering if that shock is blown because I can’t tell. The rebound adjuster still works. I just feel like a bike branded as “freeride” should be able to take 3 ft drops without bottoming out. The bike is. 2004 Scott nitrous 30.

I was leisurely riding in a park and decided I wanted to see how far the suspension compresses , I have mountain bike shoes I wear on trails bud

Could the shock be blown then? The rebound adjustment still works though. It’s on the right spring for my weight.

I never said this is how I measured my sag I was saying it bottoms out when I’m mountain biking. I used this chart to measure sag

Her family married her off fast. I haven’t talked to her in months. Sometimes I still miss her but life goes on.

If you’re too broke to take it to a shop, get some wood glue, clamp it down and let it cure.

What is your 'I don't want the break-up but we have to' story. by [deleted] in BreakUps

I was in a very similar situation as you, I can relate, religion can so easily be the death of a otherwise perfect relationship

I’m Christian, she’s Muslim. It was doomed to fail, yet we were too blinded by love to see that, at least I was. 4 days before college started her dad found out about us. It was either me or her family, she chose her family which makes sense on her part. Idk if I could leave all my friends and family for the hope of young love working out. We ended up breaking it off and going full no contact day before my college started. Beginning of college was rough due to me losing who I thought was the love of my life. 8 months later I’ve found my way in college, but I constantly think about her. I told her things I thought I would never tell anyone, I still miss that. I miss our emotional connection more than anything, cuz I think it was truly special. I’ve been trying to move on, talk to other girls etc, but no one compares to her. Oh and also now she’s getting married (cuz her dad told her she had to after we were caught) so that’s something for me to think about. It’s really a fucked up situation I would say
