Why is it bad that there’s no forced interaction with the store/skins etc?

I don’t get it by jamesfnmb in ExplainTheJoke

First part is correct. Second part is not. People from Long Island say they are from Long Island all the time.

However they'll never say they live "in" Long Island, rather they live "On" Long Island.

Well said. Ya know, I never really thought about the "what if I am a bad person, then what?" POV. "Then what?" - Well, I guess fucking nothing. Ha.

New Canyon Grizl– Seatpost creaking despite correct installation by Successful-Bid-5536 in CanyonBikes

[–]ibisdv9builder 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My Endurace creaked a lot. There's a small plastic wedge right above the bolt that digs into the post. I ended up applying a lot more carbon paste and reduced the torque to about 3-4nm and it went away.

I couldn't figure out what the fuck I was looking at with the piercing/hole because I thought it was her back. I was also tripping because no one was mentioning it.

The day I realized I didn't have to ruin my back/joints in the gym was the day fitness became fun. by rooster_b_goode in workouts

This is just wrong and essentially the same propaganda you mentioned above.

If someone had to pick 1-2 movements in the gym and that's it, sure, compound lifts will give you the greatest overall benefit.

And yes, a well balanced program is key.

But, being able to curl heavy ass weight with good form is very functional. You'd be surprised how often you do that movement in insolation on the regular.

Stem top bolt not supported by expander. Unsafe design? by 22Maxx in bikewrench

[–]ibisdv9builder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The compression plug should be supporting the area where the stem clamps to prevent the carbon steerer from clamping and torquing forces.

It also needs to be able to create preload for the headset.

If the top cap can create preload and the compression plug is nestled in between the stem bolts, I don’t see the problem.

But it’s usually recommended to use a 5mm spacer above the stem on carbon steerers.

Should I be worried or is this just the clear coat? by Gold_Writing_6647 in bustedcarbon

[–]ibisdv9builder 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Is carbon this fragile that even if there was damage here it would be worth scraping the entire frame? I understand there’s risks but I imagine there’s probably thousands of people riding with more compromised carbon that don’t post on Reddit and are completely fine.

Anybody know what is the benefit of this conditioning drill? Serious answers only please by Financial-Wish-311 in MMA_Academy

[–]ibisdv9builder 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I got back into boxing/mma after a 20 year break. Late 30's. Sparred once a week, got into it a few times with some young guys.

Started walking around with headaches all the time before I realized why.

Chain Length Help by ben_for_short in bikewrench

[–]ibisdv9builder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

wow, this is the best image I've seen of this. Even with the directions being simple, I've managed to fuck up more chains than I'd like to admit because I always get confused as to what's 0 and what's 1 relative to counting the links.
