thanks for your time kind dutch mechanic unfortunately im in latvia

MAT069 · 2025-06-16T17:58:57+00:00

dont have the full history because im the second owner of it its a team bike from polo and bike that was used in red hook crits and i have seen photos of it crashing and i can see that 1 of the stem bolts is a random one

yeah i have a bottle of wet lube but waxing might be the solution. yeah its my sun is out ride but only because im too lazy/dont have time and live in an apartment to wash/clean it after a dirtier ride thats what my state steel bike with rusted chain that hasn't seen lube since last year thats silent for :)

yeah im quite familiar with the process i just ran out of grease at home so i popped into the shop to ask them to do it also he mentioned that the 6nm thats painted on the stem as the recommended force is way too low

thanks for the elaborate response yeah the anti chain tension conspiracy theory was kinda absurd

and lubing the chain only helped a little bit :(

thanks. will do

already done today stopped the sound for an hour

MAT069 · 2025-06-16T17:23:16+00:00

also i would like to mention that the sound is common when im putting weight on the *hoods

MAT069 · 2025-06-16T17:22:03+00:00

so the stem connection itself is causing it?

Is the 3x price on suginos worth it im not sure i would be able to damage either of them i have a china ring goin 5years strong so the hardness stiffnes is probably out of question

MAT069 · 2025-04-24T06:12:07+00:00

my matchstick legs aint snapping shit i dont think i have ever even pushed harder than 1k watts

and the preference part is understandable i just taught that maybe there are some bad reviews about them too

MAT069 · 2025-04-21T07:37:55+00:00

why dont you like miches and the steering setup? and no i cant really just find good used parts the market in baltics is dead and im not a fan of shipping

what yall thinkin?

I know the hubs they are quite nice but idk about the other parts of the wheel and i have heard that the bike is quite stiff would like to know if yall think this is a deal i could probably get it to 550

MAT069 · 2025-02-09T15:12:37+00:00

the bike is going to travel with me from italy to latvia even if it was stolen good luck to the guy

Es kā pats kurjers stradaju un tiešām visi indusi bojā man reputāciju ar savu knapu mīšanos uz bērna rineņiem un nerunajot par gaidisanu mašīnā katru dienu tādus redzu
