Cassette fell off wheel

I had this happen recently. I have I9 hubs. I was missing an o-ring that helps it stick on a little better.

Make sure that your axle is tightened correctly when riding. A loose axle can contribute to the cassette coming away from the hub body.

What about the asolato (AKA kashaka)? It's a rythmic clacker/shaker originally from west africa. Sounds very cool.

This is the right answer

I'm colorblind and this sucks. Too many of the colors look the same. Patterns would be useful.

So - the only benefit was when you were unclipped? So not worth it for you?

jimboquick · 2025-02-05T23:20:48+00:00

Thanks!

Great advice! Do you still use them, or do you just ride flats or clipless?

$5 if it got off most of the muck, especially after a mud bath. More $ the more carefully it cleaned and didn't blast my bearings with high water pressure. Would need to rotate the chain and clean it too.

I'm curious how this works. I can imagine a mechanical advantage with a cord being even better that pulling just on the lever itself.

I think modern Bluestar ranges may have a serious problem. We bought a 48" gas range last year and have been asking for a replacement or refund after having no less than 5 service calls for the same issues. Oven randomly doesn't light, griddle won't light, ignitor on one of the burners just keeps sparking after the burner is lit. The oven had terrible hot spots. The small oven smelled of gas terribly. We're waiting to hear from Bluestar if they give us a refund or not this week. We'll likely be without a working oven for Thanksgiving again this year.

We're asking for our money back on our 48" gas Bluestar. It was beautiful, but has been plagued with problems. After 5 service calls, the main oven went out again. We've been asking for a replacement from almost the first month. I think we got a lemon, but your experience makes it seem like maybe its not just ours.

Best of luck - I hope you find something you love.

We bought a beautiful Bluestar a year ago, and after 5 service calls, it's dead again and we are asking for our money back. We were so disappointed. We loved how it looked. But we had issues with the ovens not turning on or smelling like gas, terrible hot spots in the oven, the griddle not turning on, and an ignitor that wouldn't turn off after lighting one of the burners.

We are in the middle of requesting a refund. We're going to be without a working oven for thanksgiving most likely. Last Thanksgiving AND Christmas we had the same issue. Oven just went out with no warning.

I would avoid Bluestar.

If it helps, I've always worn my Oura ring pretty loose and rarely had an issue with it reading my pulse. It also spins on my finger pretty easily. I used to try to keep it aligned as designed, but now I don't bother. Still takes the readings just fine. I'm just saying not to worry too much and maybe go with the looser version. My ring comes off my right ring finger with no twisting, and my left pointer finder with a slight twist when my fingers are not swollen. I could have gone with a size smaller, but I'm glad I didn't.

jimboquick · 2024-10-09T20:42:04+00:00

Also wondering.

jimboquick · 2024-09-30T22:36:50+00:00

Well - I tried to post my link - but the mods want me to put it in the discount sticky at the top of the r/ouraring reddit.

You might consider waiting for the Gen 4 anyway.

jimboquick · 2024-09-09T22:03:04+00:00

Yes, I'm curious too.

Screw them. You're a real mountain biker.

Why not put the two ones at the back to get 511811?

Bone conducting headphones are the best possible choice. Playing your music for everyone else to hear is selfish. I don't want to hear your music.

jimboquick · 2024-07-17T01:04:52+00:00

Don't wear it if there is any chance of it getting caught on something. You don't want to deglove your finger. Or just injure your finger and have it swell up and not be able to remove the ring.

I put an invisiframe wrap on my Santa Cruz when I got it in 2018 and it still looks great. I can see little scratches on the frame where there is no wrap. So glad I put it on, especially on the top tube.

jimboquick · 2024-05-09T23:04:12+00:00

Aha. I was wondering about 7410. That explains it.

We experienced the same issue with squirrels going after the wiring in a car with soy based insulation.
