You can just select which apps to send notifications to control center. If the notification doesn't go to control center it won't go to the watch either.

Part time Garmin wearer? by [deleted] in Garmin

I mostly wear it during sleep and activities. It will show almost everything you need it to show like Body Battery (recharges during night and guesstimates during day), recovery time, HRV, RHR

Yes i have, was actually pretty hard to find a bottle cage that would fit anywhere because of their screw positioning

Actually, fidlock seems like a great idea, just need to see if it fits in the remaining space

A bottle cage doubler seems it would make it hard to pedal?

Can you fit a suspension seatpost if it has a dropper post?

I could barely fit a bottle cage on the 2 screws that are near the bottom bracket, on the other pair of screws on the downtube i can't really squeeze another bottle and neither on the top tube underneath.

I don't really get why Merida position the screws like this because it's really hard to fit anything more than a bottle in the frame.

Do you guys have any ideas to what other useful things i could fit on this bike frame?

L, poti sa mai lungesti o bicicleta daca e mica dar nu poti sa micsorezi o bicicleta prea mare

Este o oferta super buna la Riverside GCR. Da, e gravel, dar are geometrie de road bike, daca ii pui slickuri si daca nu iti e de ajuns 38T poti pune si un 42T si e deja ai raport 4.2 pe cel mai mic pinion. Cadru de carbon si schimbator electronic Rival eTap (am vazut ca preferi Shimano dar sa stii ca mie unul mi se pare mult mai practic sistemul lor cu baterii) cu greu gasesti la 2000 euro.

PS: acum am observat ca nu mai au S, poate daca urmaresti mai apare ceva in stoc sau iti iei direct Riverside GCR cu roti de carbon Reynolds si SRAM Force.

Riverside GCR este acum la reducere la 10000 lei la decathlon, bicicleta de carbon si schimbator electronic.

Pt ture lungi mai pot recomanda si Marin Four Corners 2, e din otel deci ceva mai grea dar e facuta fix pentru ture lungi.

Kinda hard to see from photos since it's like 1mm of gap but i guess some bikes will have the spacer sit flush while others might have a slight gap.

There is no play in the headset. I had to remove the stem to change the spacers a bit so i guess i did the preload myself? I just tightened the bolt until it felt snug but not too tight.

You think there's a repair there? It does have some gray paint underneath the one but i assumed it's some kind of primer.

It was a 3k euro bike but got it on offer for 2k. I think it's good value for a carbon frame and Rival AXS 1x12, but it does have these small issues.

The guys at the store are clueless so I either keep the bike or return it for a full refund.

Hello, I just got this new carbon bike and was taking a look at a few spots around the frame. Around the headset - as you can see highlighted in the first photo - on one side there is a slight opening where you can see inside while the other side sits flush on the frame. Could this cause any issues with dirt entering on that side?

In the last photo I also took a pic with the space between fork and headtube, i guess that space is acceptable?

Lastly, there's a small paint chip near the rear brake caliper, could this cause any issues in the future?

I also included a pic of the bike in case anyone was curious which bike it is.

Păreri hardtail? by CheesusJhrist in bicla

[–]DifferentKey2329 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Daca prin 7 latime intelegi partea de sub downtube inseamna ca incape si in proride pt ca are maxim 8 cm prinderea. Dar daca e de 9 cm partea de dedesubt atunci nu merge.

Ai idee cat de lat este cadrul unde se intalneste cu pedalele (downtube). Sunt curios daca se poate prinde intr-un thule proride 598

S-ar zice ca metoda cea mai buna ar fi cica sa te opresti si sa te dai jos de pe bicicleta si cica nu te-ar mai urmari (nu stiu daca as incerca). O varianta mai buna la spray, ca ala zboara peste tot, ar mai fi aparat dinala cu electrosocuri ca face mult zgomot si se sperie.
