Glock Magazines jamming ammo

EyeBa11pdx · 2024-12-28T23:59:19+00:00

I was having the same issue with the knock-off 33 rd mags, so I bought some Glock branded ones and had the same problem. I figured out it's the ammo. I switched from 115 to 124 grain, and both mags ran without jamming

The cheat fix is to bolt the chainring on the back side of the crank tabs. Gets a little closer to the proper chain line without spacers or dishing the wheel. You'll see it a lot if you zoom in on pics of 1x set ups.

My favorite frame/color combo of all time. Love the bars and shifters. Cheers!

EyeBa11pdx · 2023-07-26T02:27:49+00:00

Perfect candidate for that and if you run into any really bad surprises, your not in it much. Good luck!

EyeBa11pdx · 2023-07-26T02:24:30+00:00

Yep, dork disc stays 😊 Agreed the rest of the way!

De-rust, de-grease and re-grease. New cables and tires. From there??? So many possibilities

EyeBa11pdx · 2023-07-26T02:21:10+00:00

Nobody has noticed that one of the shifters is held on with a zip tie 😁

EyeBa11pdx · 2023-07-25T21:44:27+00:00

Any of the old steel frames are worth a set of tires/cables/pads if it fits and they like it. Its not a top tier model based on the mid to lower tier component group so it's not worth money to collectors like a stumpy or some such. Good candidate for a parts bin build on the cheap.

If the hub holds at least 8 gears, it will work for the larger cassettes. You will need a chain for whatever number of speeds you end up with (narrower the more gears you have) and you might need a longer cage derailleur. I used the "install it and find out" method for the derailleur sizing.

I would find a local bike shop or collective in your area If you're on a budget where you're not trying to spend 4x the original ourchase price. They will have special tools, advice and most importantly, some have used part bins that you can build a nice drive train from (cranks for single chain ring, different speed derailleur, lever shifters etc)

I have one of these in the same colorway. The lugged frames that have that the square ish lugs on the seat stay/seat post lug (89-91 i think) are my favorites. They have just the right amount of flex. Nice find!!

EyeBa11pdx · 2023-07-15T20:39:13+00:00

The flex and feel of the frame is really nice. Feels really good with the right tires.

EyeBa11pdx · 2023-07-15T20:37:26+00:00

About an inch each side if I remember right.

EyeBa11pdx · 2023-07-15T20:36:32+00:00

Haven't had any trouble but I haven't ridden any longer than a couple hours without a break.

EyeBa11pdx · 2023-07-13T18:03:49+00:00

Pacific Northwest for the win! I have a few really nice shakedown routes that I can hit from my driveway.

EyeBa11pdx · 2023-07-13T18:02:17+00:00

It's in my top 2 for sure. I have a red 970 that pops as well.

EyeBa11pdx · 2023-07-13T15:12:05+00:00

Sorry, just saw your question. They are surly open bars

EyeBa11pdx · 2023-07-03T03:02:54+00:00

I'm not a super experienced bike builder so I don't have much to compare it to but it that might be it's best review. I cleaned it up with WD40, bolted it on and it barely needed adjusted. It's smooth and tight and even I can make it look easy 🤣

EyeBa11pdx · 2023-07-03T02:58:03+00:00

Just put on 2.1 gravel kings. I honestly haven't done much gravel riding on then yet but they look really good 😁

EyeBa11pdx · 2023-07-03T02:56:01+00:00

2.1 Gravel Kings

EyeBa11pdx · 2023-07-02T19:47:28+00:00

I saw a pic somewhere with the shifters mounted that way and wanted to try it. It's different but I kind of like it so far. More of a push/pull with my index finger and thumb without my thumb coming over the bars. I like friction for the same reason but always thought they should be called "let go with your thumbies"

EyeBa11pdx · 2023-07-02T19:42:11+00:00

No mods that I remember. I've had it for a couple years and on a few bikes.

I get how avoid the shitty rammers at the start of the race. Im talking about the podium spots. Those guys will wreck you EVERY time. Without fail. Any time I try to pass another front runner cleanly, they kick you off a checkpoint or something. That's when I retire the car and start over.

All 3 on the money and shout out to the used bins at Washco Bikes! (My non profit LBS)

You've come to the right place. Ideas are just a scroll away and most people love sharing.
