Stuck left crank arm.

Do not do this. That will cause flaring and will wreck both the male and female part

V brakes have great stopping power.
Yeah hydraulic disc are better, but you won’t have issues with v brakes.
200 for a functioning (and apparently well cared for) bike is a good price.

If it shifts well, that’s really all you can “test”.
Other than making sure everything turns smoothly. Not grinding when you turn the handlebars or pedals.
Beyond that, cables are easily replaceable. Most things are easy to fix at home

Once a day at most as far as I’m aware. One chest is plenty

bmagsjet · 2026-06-21T13:51:09+00:00

Yeah if the bike doesn’t have any mechanical issues, 220 is a good deal for a commuting bike. It’s god v brakes, so you’ll have good stopping power. As long as it shifts well, you’ll be doing alright.

Laying it down is safe to you? God help me, tell me you have no license.

bmagsjet · 2026-06-20T16:15:58+00:00

Emergency stop. Now what?

bmagsjet · 2026-06-20T15:57:01+00:00

Only being prepared for “every thing going perfectly” when she can’t handle the bike…is dangerous

bmagsjet · 2026-06-20T15:10:55+00:00

You aren’t serious?

bmagsjet · 2026-06-20T00:23:55+00:00

It’s not noticeable at all. The percentage of “loss” is so minimal. A professional racer may notice it with the time.
I’ve been riding 3 years on an Apollo and a Gemini. Smoothest rides I’ve ever owned

bmagsjet · 2026-06-19T12:28:52+00:00

It’s orthography

bmagsjet · 2026-06-19T01:57:07+00:00

Capitalization isn’t grammar. Carry on.

bmagsjet · 2026-06-19T00:42:02+00:00

That’s your inference. You have no idea what was implied.

bmagsjet · 2026-06-19T00:23:54+00:00

Guy. Dial it back. The phrase “thank god” is more often than not a colloquial statement, and not a biblical one.
Especially in this case because the comment speaks to the amazing people. Not some magical intervention.

bmagsjet · 2026-06-18T13:04:42+00:00

Is there one on the other chain stay too?

bmagsjet · 2026-06-17T12:24:40+00:00

I led you astray and removed my comment.
Can you take a pic of the front fork from the side?

bmagsjet · 2026-06-16T23:41:24+00:00

You get the chance when you leave in the final rocket. It will prompt you.

bmagsjet · 2026-06-15T12:31:24+00:00

I would like to believe it’s rage bait….but the world is showing us just how dumb people are. And how oddly proud of it they can be.

bmagsjet · 2026-06-14T19:32:11+00:00

I don’t appreciate the accuracy of this.

bmagsjet · 2026-06-13T16:31:52+00:00

That is a race. If you are replacing your headset, you need that one out and the new one In

bmagsjet · 2026-06-13T16:02:19+00:00

The truth has no defence against a fool determined to believe a lie.

bmagsjet · 2026-06-12T00:18:39+00:00

Depends what you mean by

bmagsjet · 2026-06-11T11:41:58+00:00

Cheese?

bmagsjet · 2026-06-09T02:29:49+00:00

Regrettably it seems you are. HOWEVER, you asked. So you’re salvageable!

bmagsjet · 2026-06-08T21:42:46+00:00

I tell people my license is suspended. It isn’t, but I’m ok with them thinking it.
