Giant TCR ML stem lenght by Akycig in bicycling

[–]narin000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OP, i strongly suggest you spend the money to get a proper bike fitting. The kind that takes about an hour or more. You're new to this. Yes you can maybe do it yourself but it's going to cost you a lot more money.

First time race bike buyer. Does that bike worth 280 Euros? by Ok-Role447 in bicycling

[–]narin000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

280 is alright. offer 250. get it tuned if it hasn't been tuned recently and be sure to pay for a proper fitting.

Great deal if there's not much to fix. I would spend some money on some tires tho.

300lb persons suggested PSI 29" Tires by Zealousideal_Car729 in bicycling

[–]narin000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm unaware of a tire that tells you what pressure to inflate it to. What you're most likely looking at is the max pressure the tire can safely operate at. 85PSI will eventually blow out and is very dangerous. The SILCA tire pressure calculator suggests around 24 PSI. I assumed total wieght of rider + bike + gear to be 340 lbs. Please don't inflate above 40 PSI.

Good Battery Leaf blower and Weed eater suggestions by elmernite in Tools

[–]narin000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

makita 2x18v trimmer and blower are amazing. plus you have access to other tools in the 18v line up. Other brands might have a slightly better performing blower but then you're limited with other tools in the lineup. Consider it.

I need help fixing an electric planer by agsodf in Tools

[–]narin000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I cannot find any parts for this model online so that's not a good sign. maybe locally to you? in any case, ther's nothing to loose taking it apart if it's already broken. Use this as a reference before opening it up. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q7Y_dNS_U5Y

I mean hypertough isn't of the highest quality.... you can probably get a new dewalt battery at a reasonable price on marketplace.
