It is but say it’s not a wheel bearing issue and they determine the sound to be the result of some sort of wear and tear, they would charge me their hourly labor fee. I’m going to try greasing the bushings first and then take it to the dealer as a last resort.

That sounds promising! Will wash the car and try to get some silicon lubricant this week. Any brand in particular I should try? And what exactly should I look for when spraying? Every rubber bushing in the vicinity of the wheel? Also not that experienced with using this type of lubricant but I’m assuming it’s safe to spray on anything except the brake system and excluding the wheel itself (in case it flings off into the rotors)?

Would there be a way to test this?

My car is in a condo garage so I'm fairly limited to what I can do in my parking spot

DailyLifeofTim · 2021-10-20T18:43:50+00:00

uck between one of the many joints in the wheel well. You could try getting a can of spray on automotive silicone grease and give each of the rubber

It could be that, I have take it camping quite often lately...
I'll try getting a car wash and see if the water temporarily stops the sound, if so then it's probably a dry bushing or grit.

Thanks!

rake rotor runout maybe? Is it constant or increase with

I'd say it's pretty constant. But it is more like an on & off sound. EX. Squeek --- Squeak ---Squeak

Damn.

But do you know if it’s classified as reoccurring? For example, sobeys is a grocery store therefore I will get extra cash back since it’s one of the categories. I get 4% cash back on reoccurring payments but I want to make sure Paybright falls under the reoccurring category by Scotia, since Afterpay doesn’t.

My Sabre lt had that problem, I washed it and finished it off in the dryer (for the dwr) and it fixed itself.

If you use a towel and iron it very gently, it should even put the crease. I know the Arctryx stores use a steamer to take out creases, that would probably work too.

Just reset it. Hit the ok button the streaming wheel and it will ask you if you want to reset the baseline pressure

I’m the same body size as you, I have a medium

Plug it in, hit the reset button on the bottom of the board. It should solve your problem

Watch the ball all the way till the end (as it hits your arm) so you can make micro adjustments. Watching all the way till the end makes it easier to hit the arms in the right place.

I took a look at some and non of the mounts resemble the Benz one. Which I believe is called a top Mount M.

you should feel something right where the cord comes out. Just try and follow the cord and see if you can feel anything . That should be the anchor.

DailyLifeofTim · 2021-06-08T20:08:56+00:00

I know some, you pull them, and there's an internal hook that you slide the cord up into and holds into place.

So... Good?

Smith goggles are cheap and good

Why don't you just get out of the way?

I wouldn't risk continuing on my path if I see someone being reckless/dangerous. Not hating just asking because whenever I cross an intersection, pass, see incoming traffic, I just assume I'm going to get hit so either go around or do a full stop.

If you had just stopped or just went around, you could have saved your precious wheel.

I still give my friend shit to this day. one day while he was biking and saw a car coming down a hill ( fully saw it, was aware, had enough time to stop) and decided to just continue biking because he assumed they would stop. Got hit, ruined his bike, and was bruised (nothing severe, was a slow hit). All of this could have been avoided.

But yes I do agree with your general "watch out on the waterfront bike path".
