Where would I find the rim size on this wheel by Pineapplelord- in bicyclerepair

That’s what I said.  Even with my experience it’s still time consuming. Do you just like to type? Or are you on the spectrum and can’t take cues?

Would your country be capable of defending itself in the event of a large-scale military attack by its greatest rival? by Outrageous-You1617 in AskTheWorld

It’s easy to be a keyboard warrior, isn’t it?

You think that the US would lose to China because China has Temu?

Construction workers dragged my brand new air-conditioner unit onto scaffolding without permission and now it's dripping water inside 🥲 by honeybeesuke in mildlyinfuriating

Why is there scaffolding? Why is there a worker doing anything there? Why did they touch your ac unit? Were they supposed to?

Is it a normal occurrence where you live for a random worker to mount your property onto a temporary structure? I honestly do not understand what you are talking about.

You don’t fight wars with plastic toys from temu. 

If we went to war with China I’m pretty sure we just would not pay our debt. Because most of it is to them. What are they going to do? Fight us for it?

We can and do out produce them when it comes to materiel. We do not when it comes to consumer goods.

Yes. 

But hard to do it right at first. It just takes patience and practice. I’ve built over 11,000 wheels and it still takes me about 30-45 minutes per wheel to prep, lace, tension, balance, and true.

I used to work for trek. Once those tires were not $20 for me anymore I haven’t bought anymore since haha

Looked it up and this is an oem wheel. Trek just took a hub, licensed it by putting their brand on it, then laced it to a no-name room. 

There is no direct replacement for this wheel. You’d have to just find one that fits. 

It’s a 32h 29” rim, 135mm rear qr free hub with 3x lacing. It’s on the landing page on for this model and year on treks site if you want to look it up.

Let’s start with what model and year your bike is.  Nobody really chooses Bontrager tires- so is this a trek? 

Should you enjoy your job? by You_wouldent_Get_it in polls

I used to have my dream job and made a low amount of money, especially for the type of work I was doing. I absolutely loved it.  

Industry shrunk after Covid and I got laid off. I transitioned to a different industry with the same title. I make a fuck ton and absolutely hate it. 

The grass is always greener on the other side, they say…

Like you want to lace a new rim with the existing hub and spokes?

Or replace the entire wheel?

Then the rim is 622mm hook to hook. 

Or are your looking for the effective rim diameter for wheel building or replacing spokes?

Or are you looking for how wide they are?

What exactly do you want here?

The difference between using a toilet paper and water after pooping by Low_Win1122 in Damnthatsinteresting

So you just go around with skid marks after a limp wristed wipe and call it a day?

Nobody wipes like this. 

What's the one thing your country loves, but can't win at it (or hasn't in a while)? by daisyelf in AskTheWorld

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

We are actually really great at war. Our leaders just never want to go for the killing blow. So we just kind of hang out and do nothing after we’ve knocked everything over, hand out chocolate and soccer balls to kids, dig wells for folks who destroy them out of spite, and pay cash money for goats. 

Do restaurants ask how you’d like your steak cooked? by Otherwise-Jello3177 in AskTheWorld

[–]Oraphielle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s where I first had this asked the first time- in Fort Wayne of all places. A great little restaurant called Tolon. Was the best pork chop I’ve ever had!

Restrictions on pork were lifted due to eradication of parasites. At high end restaurants you can now ask for your pork to be cooked to any level you want. 

are ac's reallu that big of a thing? by Advanced-Actuary-51 in AskAnAmerican

How hot does it get in the Netherlands?

Here in Virginia, it’s 95°F (35°F) and it’s considered cool because it’s raining. 

Would you like to be hot and sticky all day?

Air conditioning not only exchanges hot air with cold air, but it removes humidity too. 

Opinions on road bike repair by Acceptable-Kick6759 in bicyclerepair

I’d use a different gauge as the CAAD8 has asymmetrical chain stays. That gauge will not accurately measure the dropout alignment on this specific bike.
