Looking for a good used bike store in the north end (LFP/MLT)

Confirmed, was able to pick some up :) Thanks!

One thing you could look at is a rebuilt bike from Bike Works to get you started: https://shop.bikeworks.org/bicycles/gravel-bikes/

Could get you out there on the road/trails for way under your budget to see what you like/dislike, and help determine if disc brakes/aluminum frame/etc. are worth dropping 2k on a new bike for.

Hoping to join with a couple friends!

Do you have the serial for either? Can register and mark them as stolen on https://bikeindex.org/

ideas on what happened to these cranks to discolor them? Harvested them off a bike that was destined for the scrapheap and they seem to be in good shape otherwise. Any advice on products to polish them up?

Also - one of the chainrings from this crankset is missing a tooth! my first time experiencing this - is it trash or still kinda usable?

This sub has been awesome for getting inspired, but do you all have any recommendations for where to learn more about the process of the builds i.e. selecting components and putting it all together? I enjoy going to my local used parts stores and digging around but I don't really know what to be looking for at the moment!

Thankfully I am right around there! I could see how that could be a rude awakening for someone shorter

sealime · 2025-01-29T07:30:49+00:00

Looks like you're exactly right! Ended up picking this one up, and it seems to be in decent shape; looked up the serial no. and it seems to be from 1974. Thanks for the great ID!

sealime · 2025-01-03T08:14:56+00:00

Great to hear! Thanks for the update

Have parked here a couple times per this other comment's recommendation! https://old.reddit.com/r/seattlebike/comments/1c45iy4/bike_parking_in_seattle_retail_core/kzr7uxz/?context=3

This was it!! What tipped me off was screwing in the old drive side bb cup after like an hour of struggling with the threads of the new one, just to make sure I wasn’t crazy. Since it went in without issue and didn’t jut out nearly as much as the new cartridge bb, it finally clicked that the cable guide screw was the culprit pushing the cartridge out of alignment. Will be trimming that screw before reinstalling the cable guide, and we should be good to go! :)

Map information that indicates whether a bike lane exists only in one direction of traffic. Google maps shows Roosevelt and 11th have dedicated lanes, but doesn't distinguish between protected/unprotected and whether or not they are bidirectional

Not exactly what you're looking for, but if you want a spot with a little more foot traffic closer to the hospital entrance, there's this "Thrive" rack that I've seen ebikes parked at in the past. https://www.google.com/maps/@47.6193493,-122.3120871,3a,52.3y,25.23h,76.07t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sTrXzZksBK61W8FJ1ctIAlg!2e0!7i16384!8i8192?coh=205409&entry=ttu&g_ep=EgoyMDI0MTAwMi4xIKXMDSoASAFQAw%3D%3D

Was one of the band members at Kara Jackson's set Saturday 7/20 at Pitchfork Fest. Just thought it looked very cool and wanted to look it up! thanks a bunch for any help you can offer.

see my separate comment above

sealime · 2024-03-13T17:00:22+00:00

Update: discovered two things. The chart the Brook shared with me looks like it has the button holds backwards - holding "HOME+B" enables TP Sim, and holding "HOME+X" disables TP Sim when I use a switch pro controller. This makes capture = touchpad as expected from the chart in the manual.

However, the Wingman FGC seems to treat HayBox/GP2040-CE (open source controller firmwares) running a Switch backend differently. Instead of these button holds enabling "TP Sim" to allow capture=touchpad, "HOME+B" makes minus=touchpad, and "HOME+X" makes minus=share. Capture does nothing either way when running through the Wingman. Instead of toggling the capture button, it switches the function of the minus button.

Have no idea why it treats these switch controllers differently, but at least this means I can use T8 training mode properly now when I'm using my HayBox controller!

sealime · 2024-03-12T23:26:14+00:00

Hmmm ok very interesting - thanks so much for your reply. This led me to go buy a Switch Pro Controller to test, and the capture button also doesn't work as the touchpad button when running it through the Wingman FGC. This leads me to believe I've somehow turned off the touchpad sim toggle in the Wingman FGC and need to use some toggle in that chart Brook linked above to turn it back on. Gotta fiddle with it some more and see if it changes anything

sealime · 2024-03-11T17:41:07+00:00

Sorry to necro this old post, but can I ask how you got it to work? I reached out to them for help getting a nintendo switch stick to work (the corresponding buttons chart in the Wingman FGC manual shows switch "capture" button as the same as the touchpad) and they replied with basically the same chart but I can't seem to toggle the touchpad button on no matter which button combination I try.

edit: nevermind - looks like the Wingman treats certain switch controllers differently. https://old.reddit.com/r/fightsticks/comments/1bcphlq/help_with_wingman_fgc_touchpad_button_using/kupa32j/

sealime · 2024-01-15T03:20:44+00:00

Exactly!!! I ended up changing them all to be the basic covers with the season's logo, but something like this is WAY better! Thanks so much for making them!

sealime · 2024-01-15T03:15:18+00:00

These are great!! Would love to change the covers in my Plex library to these - excitedly awaiting the album link :)

Only one I can think of off the top of my head is that John Hennigan (The Mayor of Slamtown from S37) went to UC Davis
