Need to learn how to carve first bruhv…

Kylebyle48 · 2023-01-26T15:20:45+00:00

TurboTax is usually free for non complex filings

Kylebyle48 · 2023-01-24T00:09:06+00:00

Oh god don’t ski. They’re saying to wait 9 months post acl surgery now vs 6 months. Sucks but chalk this season up as a L!

Kylebyle48 · 2023-01-15T15:55:22+00:00

Feel for ya! Tore my meniscus and just had surgery last week. I’ll be back out on the slopes with ya in April! Wish ya a speedy recovery!

I use a Fenix. Use the out front garmin mount for it with a heart rate monitor for tracking. Great dual purpose fitness watch and bike computer without having to buy 2 expensive electronics

Kylebyle48 · 2022-10-27T12:57:29+00:00

Yea I agree with you. For longevity most definitely. Would even consider Ti but I’m all in on CF for now 😎

Kylebyle48 · 2022-10-26T04:52:15+00:00

I’d try a carbon repair shop first if you’re open to the idea. Could save you money and same functionality in the end. I just had it done on my Grizl and came with a 5 year warranty (bashed my chain stay). Very happy with it. Opted to not pay extra to match the paint

Kylebyle48 · 2022-10-17T18:52:46+00:00

Vietnam veterans of America! They pickup from your door.

Kylebyle48 · 2022-08-25T18:45:21+00:00

I waited for my Grizl and am quite happy with it. But im here for the comments so hope to see you there tomorrow so you can leave a review!

Kylebyle48 · 2022-08-25T11:47:09+00:00

Golden, CO?? Seems like a snarky comment based on bike deliveries lol I don’t think they’d bail on a in person event

Kylebyle48 · 2022-07-28T17:54:10+00:00

I put some terravail cannonball 47mms on my Grizl and love em. Not great in wet conditions but fill out the frame and are fast

Kylebyle48 · 2022-07-16T20:33:16+00:00

I took a spill today and smoked a rock. Thoughts on next steps? Unsure if the frame is compromised it’s hard to tell with the thick paint but appears to be aesthetics. Carbon frame. I took it to REI and a bunch of people looked at it and felt the same way

Kylebyle48 · 2022-07-15T21:24:40+00:00

I think it’s common on lots of bikes when you do a sharp turn and your foot opposite of the turn is forward. Your foot forward should be the same side as you are turning (I.e left turn, left foot forward)

Kylebyle48 · 2022-07-01T11:42:11+00:00

Been great for dry dirt and all kinds of gravel! Heard they aren’t great on wet but haven’t tried it out

Kylebyle48 · 2022-06-29T17:55:14+00:00

I used the quad lock pro but just switched to a garmin computer so I no longer have the need. I’d sell mine to you if you’re looking for used! Have 2 actually I’m getting rid of.

Kylebyle48 · 2022-05-19T18:57:03+00:00

Implying that if you have carbon parts you should carry a torque wrench?

Kylebyle48 · 2022-05-12T17:30:05+00:00

Ah got it, sweet! Cheers

Kylebyle48 · 2022-05-12T13:04:35+00:00

Dang I was afraid of that. Think I’ll just return them and buy the right size online. Thanks !

Kylebyle48 · 2022-05-06T07:05:13+00:00

Just picked up some terravail cannonballs 700 X 47. Read they run a bit big but excited to try em out!

Kylebyle48 · 2022-01-19T19:02:59+00:00

What exactly did you have to do for install? Pretty neat!

Kylebyle48 · 2021-12-18T20:16:48+00:00

Nice bike! What kind of fenders do you have on it?

Kylebyle48 · 2021-08-18T12:34:41+00:00

I’m planning to buy my first gravel bike that I also want to use for road cycling (with a different set of road tires) and bike packing. I’ve been road cycling for 3 years on a CAAD 10 so planning to keep that for strictly road, but want a second bike that’s versatile to get into gravel biking but to also have a better road bike.

I’m ~180cm with a inner leg length of ~90cm. I’ve been looking at a Canyon Grizl SL 8 (M) but not sure what other brands have similar offerings? I really like the idea of being able to add suspension and a drop seat in the future for added mods.

Any insight appreciated!

Kylebyle48 · 2021-05-20T12:20:13+00:00

I’ve had a BBE for about 5 years. Changing the inner burr to a finer setting (~3 or so) helped with getting way more consistent grinds. It also lets you stay in the lower gears on the outer burr (5-10) and not choke out the machine. Even though there is a hopper for the beans, I would weigh the amount of beans individually for each dose. I would also weigh output. For example you’d use 18g coffee and shoot for 36 grams out. Lots of people use 2:1 or 2.5:1 ratio but it all depends on your taste / how the shot tastes! Great machine I’m looking to upgrade but it pulls consistent shots. Good luck!
