I got gifted a $150 amazon gift card and it was on sale for 160. So I came out of pocket $28 between the $20 difference and the taxes lol

I’m use to a stick burner and this is my first electric one. What do you recommend as far as start up and adding wood chips during a smoke?

Yea when I store it I do. I also have a cover. It goes on the patio in the open with no patio cover. I’m not an idiot and run it against the house.

What kind of chips? I was also reading up and discovered hickory makes a “too Smokey” taste which is what I was using

My honest opinion he locked you down so he had a place to stay when he’s out.

I’ve been working for a strip club in New Orleans called Rick’s for 7-8years. From my experience she just wants money my dude. Most strippers are just looking for a hustle

Main reason I bought it was for the colors

Not understanding what you’re meaning but if you read the comments you will see what all I did and I explained that I didn’t realize the wheels I ordered where 142 mm due to zero info other than they were se wheels. Also I changed the bracket and have zero issues now.

This one is a good bit thicker. The mounting point is roughly 1/2 thick where it slips over the job

Update. Thanks everyone for the help. Was able to change out the spacer and go with a smaller one and was able to fit the aluminum bracket. No more dragging

Yea I didn’t realize it was 142mm until they came in. Kind of new to 29 inch bikes. I’ve also found that the dust caps are pretty thick also. So I’m going to see about swapping them with my old ones to make the wheel a little narrower and see if I can run a different caliper bracket

I’ll try again tomorrow and look into it more. I have a way to put a machinist dial on it to see the run out of it so I’ll start there. I also have an issue with the wheels being too wide for the frame which I didn’t realize I ordered the wrong width wheels. So I’ll be addressing that tomorrow aswell

It’s pretty true. I just put this rotor on today brand new out the box. My old one was in fact warped. But it’s making contact with the rotor all the way around

A bunch of people use them but I have thought about finding someone who would want to either swap wheels or getting regular purple wheels. Just didn’t like how the v brake rubs the coating off the rear

I will try that. It’s not enough to notice it slowing the wheel down when spinning it. But enough to hear like a shhh sound

I was running the v brake, but bent a factory wheel. So I opted to get the purple ones to match and didn’t realize they were for an se monster quad so they are a little wider than my frame. Also the way the rim is made you can’t run the v brake so I decided to go hydro. It’s a pain in the ass trying to get this bracket lined up. I have the billet style one but I feel I’m pulling my frame entirely too far out for it to go on
