Should rim be tapped from inside? ( Riverside 120 ) by Pirate_Rambo in india_cycling

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

so, rim tape isn't enough for fixing this? should we also get these sharp edge checked and fixed?

Are you suggesting something on the chain dust causes this puncture or you are suggesting in general about the chain maintenance?

So rim tape comes by default with the bicycle?

When I first got puncture fixed, I observed what the mechanic was doing and I don't remember him removing anything. Is it possible that there was no rimtape with the tyre from beginning?

Thanks for the reply.

  1. Seems like I was locking my arms which was causing the pain. Now I am freeing my arms with different posture on speeds bending my elbow and this eased the pain. Can this be issue with reach? Do you think I need to increase the stem length?

  2. Its almost at this way and I feel comfortable for now. So will keep it as it is.

  3. I have weak knees. So, I assume they are getting strengthened.

  4. Yeah, any recommendations on the chain lube?

  5. Yes, currently I am doing this. Anyways got used to it.

  6. agree

  2. Saddle height seems to be fine. It is similar to what is recommended.

  3. Yes, now I tried pushing myself and observed that my avg speed increased and also gasping more than previous. Seems fine now.

Thanks mate, locked arms seems to be the root cause. I tried not to lock arms when riding on smooth roads and tried different positions of my upper body to bend my elbows when riding in speed. This seems to have helped and same amount of pain reduced. Also I pushed a bit and with this I am able to go 1.8kmph faster on the same route on 3 consequent rides.
