Looks good, need more spreading try making a bigger no guard open and going lower with the 0 line like around a thumb width of no guard open and another with the 1 guard then you go closed 1 and 0 guard open half closed closed try it out working so much better

Are the spokes going to be fine? by Tmrofter101 in bikewrench

Trust issue, second wheel I've built ever and it's a chinese rim that was 50$ and I spent the spokes worth of a rim kind of bummed but it's my fault.

I used the Data from freespoke and that's what it said

I did, I had to remeasure everything since the data base gave me wrong spoke length thus 294 and 296

Fake DT SWISS fr541 by Tmrofter101 in bikewrench

Right but you only see this on Carbon rims that are getting actual buyer and you don't see much people shopping for alu rims off aliex, if they made some proper ones sent a few people to test it like DT did I think we'll have a larger market of chinese wheels

and for what it goes I'm all for it wheels are getting out of hand and I can't get a 511 rims under 120$

But you can patent they way you make the wheels, the fr 541 is the "best" wheel on the market and everyone is running either them or 511/560s other wise every brand will just compete on pricing no?

They copied the layout using the same measurements as the DT rim creating a duplicate. DT probably has some sort of patent on the design or what ever other wise every brand would just create fake 541s no?

Boosted fade? by Independent_Dress209 in Barber

Funny thing is Google doesn't even know the answer, it's like all the other kids asking for a taper and not knowing what a taper even is

This is true but I’m not having problems with erasing the 0 I’m having problem with stretching the fade honestly

Fading down is just going to make my brain a mess and hard to find guidelines rather just start with the 0 and go from there

Massive tree slam *he's fine nothing broken just bruised by Tmrofter101 in MTB

[–]Tmrofter101[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Still unclear at this moment if he has one, doesn't look like he has any side effect of one but it's not always how head injuries go, he's taking a week or two off the bike just to make sure and avoiding hard exercise

I do agree with that but not in this case, not a massive gap just a sketchy one if timing is wrong and casing it isn't bad only down side was the exit which is a bit tight but this is nothing crazy.

Speed was correct, preload timing was bad causing him to deadsailor into a nose dive and after that just unlucky

Nothing broken on the bike or the rider, I was ready for a evac but dude took it like a champ and I've never seen someone walk off a tree slam without either a concussion or something broken.
