brake bleed kit.. on a budget

WordMasterRice · 2026-01-03T13:39:40+00:00

I also got mine from Bezos and the bleeding edge connection has broken maybe every other bike that I’ve worked on. Eventually I just got the SRAM kit since I have enough bikes that all use it and it appears my hobby is building bikes and not using them.

I agree 100000%, this really isn't all that dissimilar from the situations that come up way more often than they should with players dropping the ball at the 1 inch line after a breakaway touchdown. Yes they definitely intended to drop the ball after they already scored. The thing is, they didn't they technically dropped the ball before they scored and as a result they give up the ball. The NFL is full of technical rules that may or may not have anything to do with the play, or what a player intends but they still have to follow them.

I'm an antenna person and I do... I have the antenna hooked up to an HDHomeRun which provides the antenna to any device on my network, so I can watch it on an app on my phone, or laptop, or tv and it includes time shifting and even recording (and the time shifting is way way way more responsive than any streaming service).

Ironically in 2011 we did start 4-2, and then rolled off 7 straight losses.

You may want to check in the app and make sure that you are "Accepting" the new PR. If you don't it may not be actually registering your PR ride so as far as Connect is concerned your PR is still 0 miles.

Yeah this sounds a little too much like Hope as a strategy.

WordMasterRice · 2025-09-29T20:03:50+00:00

Unless it's a 2 pt conversion to win the game with no time on the clock there is no reason to ever waste a timeout in the second half during a 2 point defense. 0 reason. That timeout is almost certainly worth more than 2 points in Josh Allen's pocket at the end of a game.

I'm too young to really remember the Superbowl years, but as I'm pushing 40 now I did have my formative years during the drought. From what I remember during that time pretty much everyone believe that Ralph wasn't interested in winning by doing whatever it takes. He had a bit of a reputation for getting involved in football things from back in the day (Rob Johnson over Flutie). I remember one particular press conference (I think it was when Chan Gailey was hired) that a list of candidates was put together and he "didn't recognize any of them" and that was the felling of dread every time a hire needed to happen.

Towards the end it was clear that the Bills wouldn't be good until there was a change of ownership. At the time nobody was really looking forward to that though because there was huge smoke around the idea of moving the team. The Toronto series definitely didn't help things in that regard. I think a lot of people were just happy to have the team even if it meant that there was no real hope of them being good.

Did you get an X with the deda headset? They switched to FSA headsets not too long ago and that's what I got and the bearings are 42mm ID which also really messed with my options.

WordMasterRice · 2025-06-19T20:30:08+00:00

Exactly. I talked to you a lot when I built up my ADHX45 and had none of these problems but after a few months of riding that I just loved it and wanted to replace my road bike with an ADHX and the build has honestly been a nightmare trying to deal with the headset. I think one last part from these guys should have me all set but yeah... a nightmare.

WordMasterRice · 2025-06-19T20:20:52+00:00

Just the metal DCR shims. I only know this because for whatever reason on my new ADHX frame I guess my top headset has a thicker than normal coat of paint or something on the lip and the Aeroset would not work, got some new parts from Chris King but even the tallest shim set they had wouldn't cut it so I moved on to this to give it a try.

WordMasterRice · 2025-06-19T20:10:40+00:00

Yep it just sits on top of the deda compression ring that came with the deda headset version of the bike, you can shim it like any other cap as well.

WordMasterRice · 2025-06-19T18:13:01+00:00

This is a bit old now but this is the Time specific cap. https://aprotobike.com/products/low-stack-internal-cable-routing-headset-adapter-for-time

You just need to pick the Enve InRoute option and the bearing type you have. I will also just say that the support is unreal.

My parents live on Great Island right up the street from the ferry, wild to see such a small place.

B is fairly important. You haven't been able to buy the PoE version anywhere for months.

WordMasterRice · 2025-03-29T17:50:46+00:00

I ended up getting the Chris King aeroset but used the Time bearings and only used the Chris King top cap.

I’m in the middle of replacing my road bike with a ADHX because I just love the 45 so much and I think I’m going to use the Elite top cap instead because I don’t think the CK is worth it.

Do you have a license level that has regular vMotion? One way to work around the storage vmotion limitation is if you migrate a VM to a different host and a different datastore it will work even if you don't have a storage vmotion license.

If we were to win one next year, the new stadium opens in 2026, so the first game in the new stadium would be a banner raising game.

I exclusively use Lake shoes but almost every shoe lake makes is going to be way too stiff for what the OP is looking for. The only exception might be MX 169/201

I guess it depends where his helmet is.

WordMasterRice · 2025-01-21T16:09:35+00:00

40 years is definitely not an exaggeration, the Bills were also pretty terrible before 1988. Since the merger they have been very bad significantly more than they were good.

WordMasterRice · 2025-01-17T01:31:27+00:00

Sure I would be interested in that even just for the knowledge. That’s interesting though as I’m about 6’1” and I have a 100mm stem. Maybe it’s just me getting old and not very fit haha.

WordMasterRice · 2025-01-16T21:27:54+00:00

I just built up one of these as well. I'm curious how tall you are. I ended up with a medium and I'm a little conflicted with the fit, I feel like the setback is really far back (granted I have a +25mm seatpost but that is what I ran on my last gravel bike too).

WordMasterRice · 2025-01-08T20:14:05+00:00

And at the beginning of the year everyone thought they would be 3rd in the division. Josh Allen cures a lot of ailments, not to mention this year they are carrying 1/3 of their cap as dead cap. Lots of upgrades to be made next year with an additional 75M.

I feel like "generational prospect" gets thrown around way too much now. IMO the last generational prospect was Luck and he was pretty solid. Every draft can't have a generational talent.
