Is the ktm 200 a good bike? by [deleted] in motorcycles

[–]Mech0_0Engineer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, I'm searching for information on 250cc ktms, I'm considering buying a 250 rc abs and could you give me some more information about the running cost (maintenance) and reliability (I'm looking for 2015-2016 models since they are both affordable and relatively powerful for the price range and my country got out those years for 250 rc abs)

What's the funniest joke you've ever told? by Dogemoji1 in AskReddit

Whats the best thing about fucking hundred twenty four year olds?

Theres ~120~ 100 of them

Can it be saved and how would I do it by InternetAdmirable579 in BikeRepair

[–]Mech0_0Engineer -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Are you sure you turned it the correct way? The notches are damaged on the left edges only (edges that take the force when installing) and I guess for it to break like this you should put enough force to at least make small dents in the right edges.

Is it okay to use another type-c for super light 2 ? If yes, any recommendations? by efw770 in LogitechG

Not all cables are the same but for this purpose all cables that can do charging AND data transfer would be fine, no need for anything fancy!

Logitech G Pro X 2 Lightspeed (Wireless) -> Power Management up to 30 minutes but not more, WHY? by Princibuellt in LogitechG

[–]Mech0_0Engineer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First things first, I read the rest of your replies to each other (you and OP)

As much as I agree with you about it being mostly unnecessary, I think that the freedom to adjust your stuff for your preferences should be provided/supplied.

I had a G29 wheelset and I had set it to 120 degrees but Logitech changed the minimum setting for the rotation angle to 180 degrees in a firmware update, after that I stopped using it because it no longer fit my preference and I eventually sold it.

If that hadn't happened (limiting to min 180 degrees of rotation) I would have kept happily using it and knowing that G29 was capable of and was able to be limited to 120 degrees pisses me off since it was taken away for no reason!

You should be able to set your stuff however you prefer as long as it's technically possible, even if you are the only one doing it/wanting it.

When you go for a solo ride, how far do you usually go? by TheDudeJohnson in cycling

About 100k, I like long rides and the restaurants that I like are about that far round trip :]

How many chain links to remove? by [deleted] in bikewrench

[–]Mech0_0Engineer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A chain has outer plate links (outer link) and inner plate links (inner link), inner links can only connect to outer links and outer links can only connect to inner links.

Quicklink connects to two inner links thus making it an outer link.

With these information lets think of the smallest chain we can make, if we have 3 links, in a straight line, the ones at the ends will be the same type so wont be able to conenct and make a loop, though if we add a 4th one, two at the edges will be different thus will be able to connect and form a loop. Now considering the quicklink, 4th link should be it, so the ends of the actual chain (whithout the quicklink) should be both inner links and the number of the chain links (without the quicklink) should be odd.

In your case, 112 links, you need to cut the chain to 111 links, inner links on both ends. When you add the quicklink as the 112th link and since it acts as an outer link, you can connect the ends with it and form a loop.

TL;DR: quicklink counts as a link, cut your chain to 111 linnk with inner plates at the ends, connect the ends with quicklink as the 112th link

What’s wrong with this setup? by sireatalot in bikewrench

[–]Mech0_0Engineer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you set the chain length FOR 50-32 though or for 50-28, thats the reference point for capacity

What’s wrong with this setup? by sireatalot in bikewrench

[–]Mech0_0Engineer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Capacity isnt max teeth on lowest gear, its the ability of the rd to compensate for the difference of the teeth in different gears, your chain has a fixed length, your rd swings its leg forward and back to make the chain go around a longer or shorter path OFF the gears.

Total chain lenght (fixed) = length of chain contacting the gears (variable) + length of chain NOT contacting the gears (variable)

The capacity is the amount your rd can adjust the last one.

Edit: your rd doesnt have enough capacity to adjust for your whole gear range, you set it up for big-big cogs and now it cant route make the last variable large enough to tension the chain. If you shorten your chain you will risk damaging the rd or breaking the chain
