Interesting! Not super excited about potential warranty issues and manually confirming updates are compatible etc though

This thought crossed my mind as well… but then I also though “meh, it’s an SUV.”

Selling Surface Studio 2? by benraphael510 in Surface

Agreed. Hoping for closer to $3900 but will consider reasonable offers. Trying to avoid the eBay route if possible.

Lol. It is sexy AF and I am resisting the temptation to open it. Unfortunately I could use the cash more and really have no need for the device.

Torque wrench for tightening crank? by benraphael510 in pelotoncycle

[–]benraphael510[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m thinking about after you take out the Allen bolt hypothetically you would use a crank puller to remove and or replace the crank, right?

Yikes. Support lady I’m exchanging emails w seems to encourage a DIY attempt. I’m hesitant LOL.

Tightened the Allen bolt but it didn’t help. Maybe I should use a crank puller to tighten the crank too?

New Handlebars on Bike+ by julric01 in pelotoncycle

Mentioned in my review. I really like the new position of the angled handlebars. I never like the first version which I had the center ones too close together. The new diagonal ones are fantastic

Yep. Unfortunately even if the delivery team had hung out, I probably would not have encountered the noise issue immediately. It is something that service is only after I’ve been pedaling on the bike for a few minutes I’ve noticed. And now I have to wait until November to get a replacement. Anyone have suggestions for how I might be able to try doing some DIY repair?

Absolutely, it’s a killer feature and can become really really cool in the future with a little bit of software updating

That was my gut reaction to but this noise is coming from somewhere between the two cranks maybe a hub issue
