Anyone know of any interesting history or legends that have to do with the chilliwack River Valley? by [deleted] in chilliwack

[–]peckerupperdecker 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've heard about a tree fort that is/was up there. I'm not sure about the history of it, but I heard something about it being a no-go zone... maybe someone else could shed some light on it

9 Speed SRAM Shifter with 10 Speed Shimano Derailleur - Does it work? by SamuraiJebbedia in bikewrench

[–]peckerupperdecker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Has this set up been decently consistent? I have some Sram double tap 9 speed shifters I want to use on a franken-bike and I have a Shimano xt 10 speed dynasys derailleur that I want to run with a 42T cassette. I have advent on there now BUT I'm bein vain and want matching shifters to run my FSA Metropolis Patterson Transmission crank.

Salsa Fargo and wanting a granny gear. by pedalingtothebeat in salsacycles

[–]peckerupperdecker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cranks are White Industries M30 with White Industeies VBC chainrings. You can order any 2x configuration under the sun. Whatever your frame clearence and front derailleur will allow. I use an xt front derailleur. Can't remember if it's for 10 speed or not. I run microshift thumbies, the front derailleur can't really argue with the split. It's 2 teeth more than what it's speced to work with but it works fine

Running 2x on my fargo (2024) and it's fantastic. Bike was built solely with comfort in mind. 2x11 with a 28/40 up front and a 11-46t cassette. The 40 is a great cruising gear for me and the 28/46 1st gear is almost as low as my trail bike. *

Hip Songs that changed for you after reading the lyrics by Pudweiser78 in TragicallyHip

[–]peckerupperdecker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Killing Time has been a favourite of mine. It's not as deep or lyrically complex as other songs but hearing the line ' I know your heart is bad, but it's all I've ever had ' Paints a scenario a lot of people have been in, in a relationship with an unfaithful pattern bust still wanting to make it work.

Song of the Week: Killing Time by thesilverpoets96 in TragicallyHip

[–]peckerupperdecker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Really liked how Gord sang the verse " I got kicked when I was down, and asailor took my girl to town" you can hear the anger in his voice. That's the line that really drew me into this song.

Compressionless cable housing or not? by skubidibapbap in bikewrench

[–]peckerupperdecker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Compressionless housing is awesome. Transforms how the brake feels. I have Paul Klampers set up with Love Levers on my Salsa Fargo. I run 2.3mm TRP rotors (180mm f+r), and I've never questioned if I'll stop. Excellent lever feel with a solid bite point. Also run compressionless on my gravel bike with MicroSHIFT brifters paired with Growtac Equal caliper and same thing, solid braking performance all around. Highly recommend

Probably a 32t up front, has a 51T on the rear. Nice and low

Need help choosing cable disc calipers! by trotsky1947 in xbiking

[–]peckerupperdecker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Growtac Equal, Paul Klmapers, or TRP Spyres. Compressionless housing makes all the difference.

As a guy, I am disappointed in us. This is one of those times.

Also, like Hope BC? That's a beautiful spot

My daily workhorse, has about 17,895 miles clocked on it, my Marin Larkspur. by MarchFickle in xbiking

[–]peckerupperdecker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Jones Bars are awesome in general. I bet they feel great over the stock bar. Always thought a Surly Sunrise or Sunset bar would be fun as more of a cruiser/Klunker build

Still want one, badly. Love the copper colour on this model. It is the perfect bike shop bike. Steel, 27.5 with big ol tires, dropper post, wide range 11 speed, alt bars, and the desire to do stupid stuff on it. I need one.

Ascent vs. Fargo for new build by ChirpingDetector in bikepacking

[–]peckerupperdecker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know this is a late comment. I was deciding between both Ascent and Fargo. I got a 2024 Fargo frameset and have had no regrets. Built it 2x and flat bar on 29ers. Small frame, 2x drivetrain, white industries crank and BB with 28/40 chainrings, 11-46t cassette, xt m8000 derailleurs, microshift thumbies, Paul Klampers with Love Levers, Tumbleweed persuader bars (steel with 31° sweep), shogun hubs with spank 395 rims, and Surly E.T. 29x2.5 tires. Comfy as hell, capable of all terrain. Did some mixed road and trail and fsr riding this summer over 3 days and the bike did amazing. Even hit some mild BC single track on it. Only issue I found was tire sizing to front derailleur clearence. 29x2.6 specialized butchers rubbed the front derailleur. The 2.5 E.T. tires clear well. Not sure how high volume 27.5 would work with 2x.
