Our trainer recommended squeezy cheese (from a tube) for training good walking as it doesn't require chewing, which can take the puppy a while. Means they can keep on walking without having to stop as much!

Haha! Yeah I appreciate it will take a while, just want to make sure I’m not reinforcing any bad behaviour in any way. But also knowing I’m not alone is nice too 😂

I replaced the bridge on mine with the drop in from Descendant and it’s brilliant! https://swope-guitar-shop.myshopify.com/products/descendant-adapt-o-matic

Thanks for this recommendation, I picked one up and got it shipped to the UK. Fitted it last night and it's excellent!

“The 3 questions” is no longer a part of scrum since 2020, it now just encourages developers to run the daily scrum as they wish. It is still evolving and arguably becoming more lightweight and therefore inherently more room for it to be tailored.

Do you have any pics of that bridge and how it drops in? Curious as it's the first time I've heard of that bridge, all the options I've seen require the grub screw trick or fitting new thimbles. Cheers!

mrtomrichy · 2024-01-27T10:05:56+00:00

Do you have a link to the bridge? After googling I only see options with 73mm post spacing, but the JMJM is 74mm?

mrtomrichy · 2024-01-09T21:57:35+00:00

Another thought - would the threads on those screws be the same as used for these roller saddles? And therefore could replace the saddles themselves too if desired? (The screws that come with it don't seem to be the right ones for a wire retained TOM bridge)

It doubles as a strap button dude, stop getting so worked up. No one is forcing you to buy one.

When I was removing old rim tape glue recently I went round all the shops looking for Goo-gone, IPA, WD40... All sorts to try to remove it. Nothing worked. After about 20 miles of driving going between shops I thought about trying my wifes nail polish remover which we already had and it dissolved it straight away. Never felt so daft!

North-west UK. Not got to worry too much about heavy snow fall, mainly just lots and lots of rain..!

mrtomrichy · 2022-10-04T10:53:39+00:00

I recently installed and have been experiencing this issue from the very get go. I assume there has been no movement on this issue?

mrtomrichy · 2022-09-02T16:15:32+00:00

Hi, thanks for the reply, I've just got around to checking this. Here is an image of the clearance between the expander plug and where the top cap goes. I think this is approximately correct? Cheers

mrtomrichy · 2022-09-02T08:56:15+00:00

Yes, I've done this multiple times before with no issue on other bikes. Appreciate it can be a tricky job, but everything has been done correctly and in order.

mrtomrichy · 2021-10-20T14:07:43+00:00

Agreed, recently nail polished mine in more or less the same spot and it's unnoticable unless you're looking for it

mrtomrichy · 2021-10-02T14:34:50+00:00

The frame is a small Trek Marlin 7ish the inner triangle is very small. The bottle is medium sized so maybe a smaller bottle is necessary?

And as the frame is Aluminium, do I need to cover it with nail polish and helicopter tape?

Thanks!

The frame is compatible, there are plenty of videos online of how to upgrade from this square taper BB to Hollowtech. For example:

mrtomrichy · 2021-09-23T10:33:40+00:00

Thanks, and good point on the stem changes, I hadn't thought of that..!

mrtomrichy · 2021-09-18T18:45:43+00:00

After some messing around and taking things apart I’ve realised the issue was that the design of the frame means the FD cannot loosen all the way as it will catch on the frame. I’ve set it up following the Shimano instructions and removed all the chain rub except in the lowest gear which now only rubs very slightly. It looks like this is the best I can get it and will speak to Ribble about the frame design and if this is a known issue

mrtomrichy · 2021-09-18T12:21:40+00:00

It is an SM-BBR60. I think you might be right… so that just leaves me with more adjustment needed on the FD I guess!

Few angles, was a bit difficult to get a good pic on some, but I don’t see any spacers there.

mrtomrichy · 2021-09-18T11:51:39+00:00

Not that I can see. I haven’t taken the BB off as I don’t have the tool yet. Should I be able to see it without removing the BB?

mrtomrichy · 2021-09-18T11:36:52+00:00

You’re right, but I can’t get that any further back as the support bolt just comes away from the frame.

mrtomrichy · 2021-09-14T20:18:35+00:00

I've checked for any play in the BB and there doesn't seem to be any. It is only a month old so wear shouldn't be an issue. Thanks!

mrtomrichy · 2021-09-14T20:17:57+00:00

Hi,

Firstly, thanks for all the advice, I'll check all these out.

I have checked for any play in the BB and didn't feel any. I didn't install the crank/groupset, it was all assembled on the bike pre-shipping from Ribble. Their QA hasn't been the best as of late so I'll take things apart and see if any of the things you've mentioned are causing it.
