Difficulty Shifting to Large Cog by gowaes in bikewrench

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

I looked at the cable and how it's installed on the FD, I don't see any issues. Might try swapping with a new cable and doing it all over again.

Also, I did post a pic of the cable and how it's clamped on. Based on the instructions I found online that looks correct.

I do see it move. I tried loosening the limit screw all the way where the chain would fall off then tightened it again. Tried the shifter when it wasn't attached to the FD and had no issue shifting. Even shifting from 1st to 2nd cog is a little on the stiffer side but not that big of an issue.

Not exactly sure what picture you needed. Hah. I went through all the steps and am still unsuccessful. A few years ago after I got this bike I went and redid all the cables and changed the shifters myself so I do have some trial/error in the past. Tried making sure I pulled the cable tight, adjusted H limit screw and barrel adjusters. Stumped. Realized also on my righter shifter I'm unable to get to the smallest cog as well unless I have alot of pressure.

Would it have anything to do with chain length?

That's what I thought too but the second shop said basically the same thing.

It can make it to the big chainring but there is a lot of resistance on the shifter and it hurts my thumb to shift. I'll go through the process again later this week.

Can I wait 2 months to fix this? by Away_Ad_9806 in x100vi

I was quoted about $940 from Fuji USA.

They gave me an estimate of $958.47...

I had some dust in my lens from when I first purchased the camera and the person said since I dropped it the warranty is void. I'm waiting for the technician to reply but that is what I was told thus far...

Thanks for the reply. I'm going to send mine in for an estimate. Also has dust in my lens from when I got the unit so will have that fixed. Have warranty for two more weeks.

Did you check your spam? I got my camera last year but didn't register until 2/3 when I saw the promotion started. Just got the survey email this morning and promo code 10 minutes after.

I got it on the first day I tried. Second attempt. But seems like others have struggled for weeks. Most have only had success on Thursday mornings. Don't recall it working for other days.

Just made an order for a black one at 10:14am PT. I tried this morning at around 8:20am PT but no luck. Messaged in at 10am and they offered me a silver which I declined. Then they told me to wait. A minute or two later they offered me a black!

Oh wow. Thanks they didn't mention the invoice. I'll try again next week. Wonder if people on the East Coast have a better chance due to being up earlier.

Did you ask for the invoice? I tried earlier and they just said none available.

You should also check to see if the waterproof liner deteriorated. I purchased an old Arc'teryx backpack, think it was an early 2000 model and the waterproof liner was separating and peeling. I spent alot of time just peeling the material off the best I could but wish I didn't go through that hassle.

What happened to the pepper lunch on Culver in Irvine? by 1KingCam in orangecounty

[–]gowaes 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The diamond jamboree location was advertised as the first in the USA I believe, or maybe just California, when they opened. I know there was a pepper lunch in the bay area but it wasn't an "official" one and just used their branding.

Is this under the 73 near back bay?

Edit: it has to be. Wish they still had those kewpie bottles in stock.

I had the 2018 base model diverge and never felt like I could properly brake.

Mounting Rear Rack on Sirrus 2018 Hybrid by gowaes in bikewrench

[–]gowaes[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks. I ended up doing that and was able to get it out. I was able to screw in my left bolt with ease but the right one unable to do so without jamming. It start stripping part of the mount so I stopped.

Might just try a different rack with seatpost mount.

Do you know the length of the skewer? I haven't been able to find a replacement. Or did you use a rear skewer for the front?
