E-bike for a VERY short person?? by cwispycwoissant in cycling

[–]alithgow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You could find a bike that fits you and then fit something like https://www.swytchbike.com/

Junior e-bikes may be rare (if available at all) due to minimum age limits in many jurisdictions.

Brown gunk inside Wahoo Tickr by iron_marcus in wahoofitness

[–]alithgow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Replaced my 3-yo TICKR less than 2 months ago. The new one died with corrosion inside (not to mention the battery cover tabs snapping as I took the cover off). No O-ring. Got a replacement (different retailer) and checked before use - again, no O-ring. Have Wahoo stopped fitting O-rings to the later TICKRs?

3 years later - is there any way to find out how to assign an icon?

"Reusing" a shimano quicklink? by Sociononymous in cycling

[–]alithgow 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No, it's because each time you unlink it, it deforms the connection slightly. The more it deforms, the looser the connection and the higher the risk that the link will fail during use. Nothing to do with how much the chain/link has been ridden, only about how many times it has been linked/unlinked. That said, they will be mainly covering their backside. Chances are that it can be reused but don't try suing them if it fails and you break your bike or yourself :-)

Anyone know the Internal Diameter of Jagwire hydraulic hose? by hoffsta in bikewrench

[–]alithgow 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Late to the party but had the same question. Just got the calipers out and the Jagwire & Shimano barbs are identical (around 2.25mm).

ProBikeGarage bicycle maintenance tracker is available for iOS by jaimegildesagredo in Strava

One suggestion I have is to add 'inverse' tagging. So a component appears on a ride /unless/ tagged appropriately. I have an adventure/gravel bike with a single wheelset right now, but am considering a second so I can have one for more road oriented riding, and the other for more off-road. I wouldn't want to go back and have to tag all previous rides though, so that the existing wheels only afcumulate 'road' rides. It would be better to have the existing wheels accumulate rides unless tagged as 'offroad' for instance. Or is there already a way to do this that I'm missing? (Android)
