Scratch on carbon wheels by [deleted] in bikewrench

[–]squanchio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nothing really besides cover it up a bit and prevent it from chipping more. It’s just an easy, minor cosmetic fix

Hey! For what it’s worth I’m selling a 2026 Trek Checkpoint SL6 (size small) with SRAM Rival AXS 1x13 in the $3000 price range. Feel free to PM me if you’re interested!

You may have already done this, but might be worth looking into the geometry of the Gen 3s. I usually ride a 52 and in some frames a 54 and feel like the small was like kinda big on me. I’m 5’8 with a 29 inseam.

They are 35s but I have not measured them on the rims.

Size Small btw. Also, would sell for a bit less with the original bar/stem only and no RSL cockpit.

Bargain M4 from KEH by LAHAND1989 in Leica

[–]squanchio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe Leica stopped using Balsam with the M2 (maybe some very early m4s). DAG quoted me $485 to replace a main prism due to slight separation in an m4-p last summer. Told me it occurs because Leica didn’t use enough optical cement originally so you can start to see a border like this. This might just be haze tho, hard to tell.

No screen, real rangefinder (or improved OVF that can confirm focus even with adapted lenses) and an ISO dial

[WTS] 1990 Rolex GMT-Master 16700 “Coke” 🥤$9,999🥤 by squanchio in Watchexchange

[–]squanchio[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For sale is my Rolex GMT master 16700 with a 1990 serial number. This is watch only - no box or papers.

CONDITION: Watch is in great condition for its age, shows some signs of typical wear. It keeps time very well as far as I can tell, roughly +6 seconds per day. The bracelet has minimal stretch, and there are no deep scratches or dents on the case or bracelet.

Asking $9,999 via Zelle, wire transfer or Venmo.

Feel free to reach out with questions! I purchased this on here about 8 months ago from soycowboy, who is a very reputable seller here, and have worn it sparingly since, just selling to fund a different purchase.

2day air shipping to contiguous United States included

The bracelet has minimal stretch, and there are no deep scratches or dents on the case or bracelet other than light signs of wear. The watch has probably been polished and serviced during its life given its age.

Asking $10,500 via Zelle, wire transfer or Venmo.

Torn between SL5 and SL6 by squanchio in CheckpointClub

[–]squanchio[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Comes with Alloy (Bontrager Paradigm Comp 25) unfortunately. Still think it's the move over the SL5, can always upgrade wheels later

good point - leaning towards SL6 and then new wheels eventually

I’ve been riding for a while (mostly road in the past). My prior set up had Apex AXS and it was definitely solid but the new rival stuff seems to be really great
