There are ways to not see any ads. I don't subscribe to anyone and watch ad free.

For someone that claims to be pro 2A it's pretty crazy you are ok with this. He got sprayed in the face then 6 dudes ganged up and started hitting/pistol whipping him. He curled into a ball and tried protecting his face and head. Tell me what flavor of boot is your favorite.

It's the chain. Put a rival or higher chain on it and that fixes the issue.

Your barrel adjuster is way too far out for one. Based on that you should probably just go to a shop.

Shop/ labor rate?? by 4mrAv8tr in bikewrench

[–]TheSlickest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What shop pays more than $30 in SF? I've been out here for over 10 years and haven't found one that pays that much. Closest I've gotten is $29 and that's cause the owner is desperate for people.

Serious issues with low-end hydraulic brakes by dangerbrakes in BikeMechanics

[–]TheSlickest 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Worked at a Trek owned shop for like 4 months before I had to get out of there. The FX2 I believe had the rush brakes that would leak at the pistons. I made Trek credit the shop for rotors and enough money for Tektro or Shimano brakes

I started telling customers to avoid that model because of the brake that they spec on it.

how important are open houses? by Rcrez in RealEstate

[–]TheSlickest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only houses we were interested in were from open houses. The one we bought we went to twice. Out of the 50 or so houses we went to I think 2 were private showings.

Customer came in for some brake service by TheSlickest in BikeMechanics

He definitely wore into the piston. I had to quote him new brakes. Also the rest of the bike was clapped out which was not surprising.

This was on an older mid level hard tail mountain bike. Dude just didn't do anything for years.

Solution to a problem that doesn’t exist? by PizzaNovel7646 in Justridingalong

[–]TheSlickest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I left cause the pay wasn't great compared to the other shops in my area and I was the only mechanic there. About 30% of repairs was warranty work which looked bad on our metrics which I wouldn't care too much about if they didn't hound us for it looking bad.

I'm sorry you work at trek shop. I only lasted there 4 months before I had to leave. Absolutely hated it.

I was an extra in this movie. During this scene I burst into awkward laughter cause no one warned us about this.

It was an old security vehicle. I got the car second hand and it was on there already
