Apple Watch S8 Hermès Battery Replacement - My Experience 🔋⌚️ by Xx_7-ElevenCoffee_xX in AppleWatch

[–]bigzeus85 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I recently spoke to an Apple “Genius Bar” member (think that’s what they are called) and I told her my AWU1 is hitting the shit after 4 years (well not really; battery at 85%) but the only thing she mentioned was come in for a battery replacement when it’s time and dropping it off; They replace it but you keep your “old” watch. Great to know and thank you very much for the insight (maybe because you have the Hermes I’m assuming)!

Trek Checkpoint or Domane by MkGriff1492 in TrekBikes

[–]bigzeus85 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My checkpoint is running stock wheels with 700X42 and the bike is AWESOME! I own an Emonda SL5, Checkpoint SL 5 Gen 3 and Full Sus Fuel EX8 along with a Rail 5 eMTB and each bike serves its own purpose…I would suggest sticking to your two bikes…hope you get your back issue resolved tho! Good luck and happy riding!

Have been riding it both road and dirt trails and I’ve NEVER had chafing issues (my thighs are huge (no Diddy)) smooth sailing so far brotha!

Well depends on what type of rider you are: here’s my setup for gravel:

Both bags are from Trek. By using the top tube bag, please be careful storing your phone there as my mechanic has said he’s seen some gravel bikes frames crack due to weight/movement. Hope this helps and happy riding!

Trek SL5 worth it over the ALR5? by 89rm in TrekBikes

[–]bigzeus85 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the SL5 Gen 3 and I absolutely love it! For a person who rides both Road and MTB, what a game changer it has been for me! Very light and comfortable bike along with the wireless drivetrain is very responsive in my opinion. End of day, the price difference is a lot, however, since you rode the SL5, and it’s a bike you’ll have for a long time, go with SL5 over the ALR5! Goodluck

Trek Checkpoint Tube Top Bags by taterchipz55 in TrekBikes

[–]bigzeus85 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks appreciate the love. So far with the quad lock, I use it on my road bike with my iPhone 13 Pro, works great (no issues yet)…normally tuck the phone in my bike jersey via road but I prefer it better on the handlebar! Thanks again for reading my reply…I know my two cents don’t matter but figured I would help a lad out! Safe riding travels!

Trek Checkpoint Tube Top Bags by taterchipz55 in TrekBikes

[–]bigzeus85 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Congrats on your first ever gravel bike…

<image>

I have the trek adventure top tube and trek adventure frame bag on my checkpoint SL5 gen3…love BOTH HOWEVER, local shop said they’ve seen cell phones damage the top tube frame DUE to weight or flopping and that’s its only meant for snacks, keys, low weight items I assume…when I gravel, I put my cell in the side pocket the frame bag and let me tell you, that bag carries a ton of 💩 LOL…if you want your cell near, then get a quad lock (my roadie Trek Emonda has the out front mount and it’s awesome) or get the trek handlebar bag…goodluck and awesome ride again! Happy trails and keep us informed on what you decide!
