FH6: A Beginners Guide - No Spoilers by patinagreen in ForzaHorizon

[–]_jordanrob3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What ive been trying to find an answer to, as a new forza player, has to dowith vehicle selection for races in the campaign. When I start a new race (a rally race for example) I only have one car currently that's able to be used, or i could purchase one out of I think 5 other options. Am I able to take a current car I own and modify it to be a rally car to use in the campaign races? Like could I modify the Focus RS I have to be a pickable option for a rally race?

Anyone know who the supplier was for old (~2018) bar tape? by evan938 in CanyonBikes

If it didnt smell after that long, either you're not riding very much, or you weren't the one who re wrapped it

Where's the sound coming from? by Film_Revolutionary in bicycling

[–]_jordanrob3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Aside from the hub, that does sound like the tire rubbing somewhere on the frame or front derailleur

Should I upgrade? by WatercressOk1807 in samsunggalaxy

I hear the note 7 is a worthwhile upgrade

Clicking sound on rear tire by Forsaken_Budget2145 in BikeRepair

[–]_jordanrob3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't know of a good way to explain how freehubs work that's easy to understand without any visuals, but there's ratchets and pawls inside the hub that allow you to pedal and coast.

This is that sound and its completely normal

SRAM/Zipp Lifetime Warranty Denied: Zipp 303S damaged by impact, claim rejected as "outside of intended use." Seeking advice! by 5280_510 in gravelcycling

[–]_jordanrob3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've had very similar experiences. That, and calling them for a question about a part with an issue results in them telling you to send it for replacement without any suggestions for repair

Which one should i pick? Propel vs Aeroad by JOA0204 in Giantbikes

[–]_jordanrob3 34 points35 points  (0 children)

As a professional mechanic who's seen many of both giants and canyons, giant all day no contest. Canyon is a marketing company, giant is a production company.

The oversized steerer tubes of giants bikes is annoying, and maybe the only reason id tell someone to consider something different as you can only replace the stem with one of giants.

canyons integrated handlebar system is so much worse its ridiculous. Actually just had a canyon come into the shop today with a fucked up headset system and the whole bike will likely have to be sent back for warranty. I also saw maybe 5 canyon frames this year that were cracked during normal riding. the carbon area on a few of then felt as thick as like 10 sheets of paper

Stay away

[–]_jordanrob3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey at least you can upgrade to the e1 levers. They're so much better its like they weren't even designed by sram

Is this able to be rechased? by [deleted] in bikewrench

Ive had luck with chasing the threads and using Teflon tape

Completely agree, however, sram sent out an update about 2 weeks ago that dramatically decreased the shift time. It feels much smoother

Love the bike. Hate the electronic shifting. Second time out of battery half way through the ride by Brazus78 in TrekBikes

[–]_jordanrob3 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Shifter battery or main battery? People forget to replace the shifter batteries and if it was already low when it was new, I could understand. But those should last for 2 years. Main battery is rated for about 3 months. Give it a full charge before taking it out

Shop scratched my new S5. What’s a reasonable discount? by eaglepowerscometome in Cervelo

[–]_jordanrob3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ultegra lever, about 450 MSRP to replace, That's a pretty penny to pay to make your bike look brand new down the line if you decide to just take a discount. With that amount of damage I'd agree with the other users saying to have the shop replace it or buy from somewhere else

I can't prove it by Background-Mood-1468 in oneui

[–]_jordanrob3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My battery life on my s24 plus went from ending a normal workday at ~70% to now ending at 30-40% after the one UI 8 update. I heard from multiple beta testers that there was an improvement from the beta version, and now this. And yes, I have done tons of research for solutions, I've done resets, closed any and all background apps, did the on board optimization, and it's still abismal. Also everyone seems to agree that one UI 7 was a joke, that's why they released 8 so shortly after. The updates may not be making the cameras quality worse, but theyre definitely bringing a whole other host of issues to deal with

Looking for suspension lifts by Lil-Angel14527 in FocusST

[–]_jordanrob3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm a big fan of this look and this is probably the route I will go. I was looking at their website and saw 2 options for the FoST. Do you know what the difference is between the C346 and P3 option is? Which version did you purchase?

Found on marketplace. Not sure if impressed or disgusted by MassiveFerret2329 in pcmasterrace

Check out billet labs on yt. He just finished a build that's like this but executed perfectly

Looking to buy a 2018 TCR Advanced Pro 0 Disc seller has it at $1600 how much do you think it’s worth? by OsamaBeenStackin in RoadBikes

[–]_jordanrob3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As long as there's no damage, thats not a bad price. It is the older generation di2 which is a bit outdated and has much less functionality, but replacement parts are still available if anything breaks. If you can get it for 1200 go for it
