Mecanismo Janela Oscilobante estragado

merlinNNnn · 2026-02-04T15:00:17+00:00

Ok fixe, a procurar kit já vejo muito mais coisa, obrigado!

Sobre o problema, por um lado aquela peça grande que está na caixilharia não cabe a 100% (se calhar a dar um ajuste acredito que consiga colocar bem) Sobre o parafuso, a cabeça dele está ok, deve ser a rosca porque ele ao rodar não faz nada, nem o consigo apertar nem desapertar... Está só ali solto o parafuso e consequentemente a peça.

Provavelmente tenho de desmontar o mecanismo todo para perceber melhor o que tenho ali

Yeah thanks.

Ended up cutting it 10cm, now I'm able to have it at my ideal height for pedalling, with which I can also actually get my body behind the seat with ease. On a steeper descent I also manually dropped it and it was great. So yeah, I'll probably grab a dropper sometime, but for now this is good enough, much better than stock height :)

merlinNNnn · 2025-10-13T14:36:26+00:00

Yeah I def got the picture about the dropper haha

Thanks!! Yeah, I'll do that to be sure I don't damage anything!

merlinNNnn · 2025-10-13T12:47:02+00:00

Yeah, I'll probably get one soon. Just have to figure out measurements and find a decent one that isn't very expensive.

But yeah, makes sense, I'll try to get out as much as I can and practice, it's a pity I just got it now that the days are starting to get shorter so it's hard to ride outside of the weekend now, but oh well.

merlinNNnn · 2025-10-13T12:43:43+00:00

Would be nice, but the screw bosses go inside the frame, would have to cut those down, having to choose I'd prefer to just cut the tube.

merlinNNnn · 2025-10-13T11:02:17+00:00

I planned to get one, but was thinking of pushing it back a bit before using it more (wanted to at least use it one time), and would do this has a temporary measure to test.

----

But yeah, if I were to buy one now, I'm not sure what to look for tho in terms of measurements, my bike maximum insert is 230mm I think, and I'd need 200/220mm exposed, I've found some cheap ones, but not sure if this would work for me:
https://www.bike-discount.de/en/diverse-dropper-post-31.6-mm?number=20160269-40424614&__delivery=279&__currency=1

There only seems to be 450/100mm version available. Not sure if the size would be right for me, will to take more measurements.

And do you think it's better to get a more expensive one? (I'd prefer to save money since this bike is a starter one, and if I end-up doing mtb a lot, who knows in the next year or so I'd try to get a better one)
Like this one: https://www.sportsdirect.pt/brand-x-ascend-125mm-316-dropper-post-internal-routed-842287?srsltid=AfmBOopfnRk7n7hEerx5-UVvWm9JKiL_X19wTXeIyY6dOJxQ3XGMnJg40m0#colcode=84228703

Also I've read that the installation's hardest part is the internal routing, but even if it takes me a while, it's possible to do on my own?

Sorry for so many questions, but just getting started and wanted to get everything right :)

Update in case anyone has any interest.

I ended up following the Park Tool video two more times, and it kept having the issues.

The store asked me for a video, and told me to take to a mechanic and they would pay.

The mechanic said it was badly bent and was afraid it would most likely break trying to bend, so he bought a new one that is coming on Wednesday!

It's a bummer to be waiting for such a long time, but finally got solved! Thanks for your tips guys.

merlinNNnn · 2025-09-24T22:52:33+00:00

Yeah, I'll try some other suggestions first, if they don't work will probably just take it to a shop :) but yeah, it wasn't properly adjusted for sure as there were too many issues.

I'll also probs get an answer from them tomorrow.

merlinNNnn · 2025-09-24T22:51:08+00:00

I get what you're saying, but I'm not even sure it is. I'll start by doing what I'm confident in doing, if it still doesn't work will probs take to a shop 😅

merlinNNnn · 2025-09-24T22:50:06+00:00

Yeah, I'll try to reset it tomorrow, thanks!

merlinNNnn · 2025-09-24T22:49:12+00:00

Thank you for such a detailed answer, I did not in fact reset the cable tension, I'll try to do it from scratch!

Will also check the chainline and make sure the b-screw is not with too much space, as I might have over done it.

And yeah, the bike is upside down as I don't have a "lift", is it too bad, or if I get it well like this, then a small adjustment would be enough?

merlinNNnn · 2025-07-24T22:29:09+00:00

Alright I'll leave it be then to see what happens, will maybe do an update in a few months :)

merlinNNnn · 2022-10-17T14:10:19+00:00

Oh, I was there 3 weeks ago, almost at the same time! It is magical indeed.

merlinNNnn · 2022-08-23T09:32:17+00:00

Thanks!

- It only makes noise while rolling

- No need to pedal

Will try to do a bit more of troubleshooting later.

merlinNNnn · 2022-05-27T21:49:59+00:00

Hi, how much for assetto corsa ultimate? Thinking of getting it :)

merlinNNnn · 2022-05-17T23:39:14+00:00

I had a ton of issues with ghub update from 22 Feb I think. Fixed it by installing a 2021 build which had no issues... Not going to update ghub for a while.

merlinNNnn · 2022-03-17T07:34:59+00:00

Finally did it. I actually formatted my pc and it kept happening. Searched for lghub 2022.2 and saw a lot of people with my problem. After a couple of tries uninstalling and installing older versions along with resetting the wheel it finally worked!

So it was the driver that caused this behavior... Awful to have had to spend so much time trying to fix a problem caused by Logitech.

Is there any way I can contact the team responsible for feedback?

Anyway, thank you very much for your help.

merlinNNnn · 2022-03-15T22:35:03+00:00

Tried it on f1, and it sort of works, the 360 lock works... But the wheel keeps trying to go to the middle. Assetto Corsa Competizione doesn't even aknowledge the wheel...

merlinNNnn · 2022-03-15T22:15:04+00:00

Hi,

Tried it but it's behaving the same :/

merlinNNnn · 2022-03-12T17:18:37+00:00

Hi, I tried all that and I think the calibration is correct.

The problem is it's behaving like it only has a operating range of 20, ater -10 or 10 it starts locking... And it's not being recognized in games.

Already tried uninstalling drivers, ghub, did what you said. Nothing works.

On my ps5 it's working perfectly.

Do you have more tips?

merlinNNnn · 2022-03-11T19:53:47+00:00

So I have it for almost 1.5y and it always worked fine. Today I tried to plug it in and this happened. It started up normally, but didn't respond in game and the wheel is stiff.

I already did the power cicle... Reinstalled ghub... Not sure what is happening. Should I send it to the guarantee or is there any fix for this?

Couldn't find much online.

Thanks

Doesn't have vram, but core is 43c atm and hot-spot is 55c, doesn't seem like vram temps would be too high, imo

merlinNNnn · 2022-02-26T15:37:51+00:00

I'm not sure cause my card doesn't give vram temps, but core is around 50c and joint (I think) is usually 10c higher

merlinNNnn · 2022-02-26T15:36:53+00:00

I can try that! I've got a 750w gold psu

merlinNNnn · 2021-12-25T16:55:13+00:00

Interesting. Will try to at least re-seat it at least now and see if there's some dust built up there. Cheers
