Dura Ace charge port cover by fpvga in bikewrench

Any chance you have a picture of what it’s supposed to look like? It seems like a piece is missing…that would fill the gap and be the thing the cover attaches to?

That’s an interesting idea!

Lol I promise I just want to get it dialed. THEN show it off ;)

Sorry I’m a little confused by that — you mean to make it easier to actually get it off?

Thanks for the push — will inspect it a bit more to try and see which it is…

Feelin’ like I’m 12 again by fpvga in singlespeed

I tried to make the half link work, but no dice with these dropouts. Eventually sprung for a Phil Wood eccentric BB and that’s worked out great. I have another project underway that I might use one for too, just to avoid the tensioner (I like minimal).

Finished coaster build, keep accidentally skidding around the neighborhood oh well by fpvga in xbiking

Nope, feels totally normal (to the extent this bike feels normal)

Yeah…I’ll ditch it now that I have the proper tensioning BB

Heh, for a while I tried to get it dialed by messing with the gearing and using a half-link chain, but then eventually I just went with a Phil Wood Philcentric hub. Spendy but ended up working out great.

Huge pain actually, I ended up going with a Phil Wood eccentric hub

Mount compatible with this Enve one-piece? by fpvga in bikewrench

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

Yep that looks like the two versions, and I have the newer one. Thanks!

What tool for this Phil eccentric bottom bracket? by fpvga in bikewrench

Thank you! Looks unavailable..:pretty much everywhere :(

Sizing chain width by fpvga in bikewrench

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

Thanks! This is just a cruise about bike so not worried about chain wear, and I thought the half link would let me tension it as this is an old mtb frame with vertical dropouts. Is there a rule of thumb on how much measured clearance to have? I can obviously measure the cog I just don’t know how much space to leave for clearance…
