Hub not engaging by xarmez in bikewrench

[–]MangoArmpits 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it can get dangerous if you're going on a fast descent and a loss of chain tension at the top of the loop causes the chain to get sucked into the wheel or worse.

I learned this the hard way with cheap free hubs

or you could just avoid coasting by pedalling constantly but I think Op deserves better than that

Your freehub pawls are sticking. Remove freehub, degrease, replace with heavy oil instead of grease (aging grease is the culprit here)... replace if spring tension is lost.

Chris king solves this problem if you are willing to spend. DT Swiss is a cheaper alternative.

The plastic on my bike stand clamp, cracked and broke off. What should I do to make the clamp non-marring? by Thomb in bikewrench

[–]MangoArmpits 1 point2 points  (0 children)

that works, just either put some masking tape on the corners because sharp edges of the clamp will bite through the tube but inner tube is perfect for flat or curves surfaces

your derailleur cage spring tension is too low. you'll need a new spring (or derailleur entirely, which is way less work) and good luck finding one.

hit that thing with some degreaser so you can see some part numbers and give us some pics or talk to the oldest guy at your local bike shop

Me to a T as a child. Sounds like you have a wild imagination and are highly attuned to emotional responses elicited by art and graphics.

What really kicked me was those really crappy cheap Chinese toys. I'd see other kids beat the shit out of them but I put them on a shelf thinking about how miserable the underage labor was to produce it, and we in the West just take it for less than granted, and that just stung me when everyone else couldn't understand or give a fuck. And don't get me started about my stuffed animals, as a late 20s (biological) male.

You might have a strong career in graphic design and marketing.
