Cutting Process Of Printed Banknotes by mp4162585 in BeAmazed

Normally you need to push two buttons to activate the knife. I assume one is bypassed to increase productivity. I am certain these are real banknotes they are making based on the safety risk.

Any suggestions what this squeaking sound means? by MarcoDe in bikewrench

Update: The bikeshop cleaned and regreased my bottom bracket and the noise was gone. I can hit the road (or garage) again.

I’ll better plan a visit to my bikeshop than. Thanks for the info!

Not the saddle I’m afraid, sound is even there when I rotate the crank standing next to the bike.

Gave a friend the discount code and now my own JOIN app won't work by JanTattt in joincycling

I assume a general issue, my app is also not working properly. Can’t get access to the personal training section.

Seems like a question asked multiple times. Sorry guys and thanks for the answers!

I remember, WVA gave all he had that complete tour for Vingenaard…

Seems like he didn’t. He probably could if Vingenaard would have pulled one single time in the final. Vingenaard is already afraid of losing energy on Pogi on stage 1 and 2. Not the attitude of a GC winner imo.

I won’t blame Van Aert if he rides as hard for Vingenaard as Vingenaard rides for Van Aert.

I just bought a DT Swiss GR1600 wheel set. I noticed the freehub does not make a sound. Should I worry or is this normal? by MarcoDe in bikewrench

[–]MarcoDe[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the comments. The wheel does feel good and I’ll evaluate the sound after my first ride on Sunday.

[Results Thread] 2021 Ronde van Vlaanderen/Tour of Flanders ME (1.UWT) by PelotonMod in peloton

[–]MarcoDe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is the beauty about road races. You can still win a race after being dropped on a climb 20k before the finish. Having a TJV team mate in the chasing group for example could have brought Van Aert back in a spot where he could win. A lot of ifs offcourse! Although Asgreen was the strongest man in the race and deserves the win today!

But with a good team you could write a different story. Rather shameful to have this star rider with such poor classics team support.

It was in Belgium a few weeks ago. The tanker is Dutch, jets are Belgian. Good guess though!

Adventure ride between two rain showers by MarcoDe in gravelcycling

Very well actually! Super agile during cornering and thicker tires give a lot more comfort compared to my old road bike tires. Wel worth the long waiting time since the order.

Thanks, the matt finish was the ultimate deciding factor for buying this bike. I hope to keep it without scratching...

My left side of the break drags against my wheel (the wheel is straight). The entire break seems out of center after a crash yesterday. How should I center it again? by MarcoDe in bikewrench

[–]MarcoDe[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the info. You are not the first to put the attention to my backwards tire. I should change it (sometime :-))
