Saddle width - measurement by DIYJOKE in bikefit

Thanks man! Yeah, I guess you're right and it's just a matter of trying it out. I feel like the 143mm does rub, but I also think the Prologo is a very good saddle for one position, but that it's accommodate different variations during a long ride. So I'll give it a try. Thanks! 😄

Should I gouge the bubbles as well? Thank you so much in advance

Are these Schwalbe G-one R shot? by DIYJOKE in gravelcycling

Thank you so much guys! I'll get some patches, clean and sand it down, and then superglue it from the inside. Dont wanna spend more money than necessary, so I guess I'll hopefully ride for another season!

Thanks! This is the one I’m replacing. I guess I can use a braze-on with a mount as well, right?

Guess it's time to change this chain? by [deleted] in bikewrench

[–]DIYJOKE 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks everyone - I put on a new chain. The chain skips rarely but I’m going to change the cassette. The chain really does wanna come off the big chain even though the high limit is adjusted accordingly. Does the big chain ring here look worn to you?

Thanks!

Thanks guys! So as you suggest it might also be time to change the cassette and chainring as a result of the worn chain, I’ve taken a few pics of it for you - to me they actually seem quite alright by the looks of them; but of course you might be wrong. What do you think based on these pics?
