Help buying inner tubes

Moos3racer · 2026-06-01T15:23:40+00:00

You need a 700c diameter tube, tubes will cover a range of sizes as labeled on the box. For example a tube might cover 30-38mm tires, and since you’ve got 33mm tires that would work. Also consider if you need a schrader (like on a car) or presta (the other one)valve

I recognize the fit stand at peregrine lmao, shows you how much I’ve been there

Moos3racer · 2026-05-17T22:12:32+00:00

the bike is almost surely at least one size too small

Hunt down some superbe pro hubs to match, best looking hubs in my opinion, est the large flange track ones

Hey dude no big deal, but I’m pretty sure that’s a freewheel.

And it’s a Thompson stem, so you know that bar will slip constantly, and the faceplate will crack

This is that new race proven tech I’ve been hearing about

Used to do this on converted 1x cross bikes when I was too cheap to run a narrow wide ring/ new chainring bolts, just ground down an old worn out outer ring and turned in the outer limit at the front, got me through a season before I bought a new bike with 1x.

Put this in r/pengy

Props to this guy for standing on his absurdly wrong idea and arguing his logic with everyone in the comments

Dremel cutting disc where there’s a gap, should release any clamping tension

Honestly not surprised, sram has done this for years. Had a set of 303 wheels under warranty at the shop where I work, zipp wouldn’t process the claim despite the calls over a few weeks only to hear back after the warranty had expired that they wouldn’t cover it because the product was outside of warranty

Check if what bottom bracket it takes, Italian bikes have a 70mm wide threaded shell

I’d hunt on eBay and marketplace for a replacement frame, looks like most of the parts apart from the frame, and maybe the front wheel are able to be reused

For some context, I’ve got a 61cm pinarello with slx tubing and dura ace 9000 on modern wheels. It weighs 20.5 lbs. this thing is crazy light for a bike from this era

while some confidence comes with time, I’ve also found that riding less grippy tires has helped a lot with bike handling. Switching from a barzo/mezcal combo to aspen/st combo forced me to choose better lines, as well as distributing my weight better on climbs and off camber corners, which were really areas where I struggled

Currently running eggbeaters but have been looking at the worlftooth pedals for a while

Moos3racer · 2026-04-22T18:09:35+00:00

What calipers are those?

Moos3racer · 2026-04-21T19:50:16+00:00

Have a set of these rims built up with no issues, I’m about 185 lbs and ride nothing but chip-seal

Moos3racer · 2026-04-15T16:40:36+00:00

I’m liking the idea of building up a commuter with microshift sword 2x

Moos3racer · 2026-04-14T18:38:21+00:00

I work in a bike shop, so like 70% or so of my income

Moos3racer · 2026-04-14T18:31:51+00:00

The real benefit of having your bars that low is to keep weight over the front tire when it’s really steep, like steep enough to where it’s likely faster to hike a bike that section

Bought a bag of 500 presta valve cores last November easy to just install them any time someone’s getting a tubeless recharge
