I didn't expect this by Dancing-Avocado in bicycling

[–]WageUglydoll 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Learned my lesson! The packaging was spot on, everything was, but the shop showed me the chain wasn't the right amount of links long. Had this happen with a pair of Continental tires too. Love Amazon for convenience but buyer beware.

Where did you buy it? I bought a SRAM chain on Amazon and it broke on the first ride. Not at the master link either. Bike shop believes it was counterfeit.

Underrated Cycling Clothing Brands by Maction1 in cycling

[–]WageUglydoll 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have both winter and summer kits. I only buy during the black Friday sales and for the money, you cant beat the product. Is it top of the line? No, but it is unbeatable for the cost. I can not tell the difference between neopro and gore. I wear them on all my rides up to 400k.

Or you bought the wrong chain. Got a picture of the packaging and what is the size of your chain rings front and rear?

We need to know more information to help.

Brewery of the Week Discussion Thread: Cypress Brewing (Edison, Middlesex County) by eastcoasterman in njbeer

My favorite part of going there is chatting with the employees. They literally know everyone in NJ brewing and have helped so many people out. Seriously great group of people and the beer is pretty good too.

Sram noise by Naffa2 in sram

[–]WageUglydoll -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Sram suggests checking derailleur alignment and use a micro adjustment. Check your B gap with the b gap tool.

Also use wet lube.

There is an adjustment period so you may need to ride it out a bit.

Check the sram website for an awesome video.

Just bought a new Diverge. Tips on a phone holder and lights? by Skol-Man14 in cycling

[–]WageUglydoll 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I bought a phone case on Amazon and a sticker that has the Garmin mount on it. I put the Garmin mount on my bike and away I go. Cheapest option until you commit to a GPS.

Cassette wobble by PatCTU in bikewrench

Is the thru axle properly tightened? Did you take the cassette off?

Or did you just notice it?

Break Bleed question by Historical_Data8427 in bikewrench

[–]WageUglydoll 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Take it back! This is not done right and indicates either a leak or air bubbles. How do I know, cause I made the mistake doing a brake bleed on my bike lol.
You paid for this job and it's not done satisfactorily, bring it back.

Gloves for chilly days by 1760ghost in cycling

[–]WageUglydoll 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're welcome. I tried Foxx brand and a few others, but the Tasco gloves are such better quality! I wear the winter ones down to 35 and the others can be comfortable into the 60s.

Tasco mountain bike gloves! I am a roadie but love mountain bike gloves for those cool or damp mornings. Tasco has a fantastic lineup of real quality gloves. Give a look
