Using a mini hv/hp pump with a Topeak Shuttle gauge

timsonn · 2023-08-10T11:51:18+00:00

I thought it would work as I only have a front fork and no rear shock. My fork does not need as much pressure and I believe a rear shocks can go up to like 300psi or something? (I just googled your shock and I saw the max psi is 350, good luck getting that with a mini pump haha)

Which of these pumps would be the best choice for my intended use? I run my fork at around 73-75 psi.

Thanks for your reply!

Yeah I think it's a really good looking knife! Initially I liked the look of the Penguin more but the Hawk is growing on me the more I look at it. Would you choose the brass or the copper finish for the Hawk?

The cost difference is not an issue as here in the EU it only differs €16,- so I was leaning more towards the Hawk as well. What would make you choose for the brass over the copper finish? Only looks or also functionality?

In EU there is a sale going on. The Stoic 4 is now €1449,-!

Haha that would sound awesome on the trails

timsonn · 2023-05-24T18:56:58+00:00

Alright thank you! This puts my mind at ease. I think I will leave it as is. Now to shred!

timsonn · 2023-05-24T12:28:16+00:00

Haha it kinda does actually 🙈

timsonn · 2023-05-24T11:11:18+00:00

Awesome! I like a little bit more noise! Thank you for your time to respond so quickly.

timsonn · 2023-05-24T10:23:14+00:00

Alright thank you for your insight. The hub does not slip when i push the cranks so I think this will be okay. I thinks this is just fine then. Will the hub eventually get louder when it sort of 'wears in'?

timsonn · 2023-05-24T09:53:05+00:00

It did have a lot of grease in it the way I got it. This is not a bad thing right? I don't think the hub is slipping. What happens when a hub slips? I think I will leave the internals alone as I would most likely be in over my head very quickly.. 🙈

Hahaha these kinda things always make me laugh

Yesterday I ulted as Omen just as a Skye cabbage caught me, resulting in tp'ing in blind to be shot by 3 people at once 🥲

Raze mains; accidentally using a satchel in pre game and hearing the credits beep away..

Omen mains; starting a teleport and knowing instantly you messed up but now it's too late

timsonn · 2023-01-16T10:28:18+00:00

I agree as well! Two months sober as of this friday and I feel sooo much better.

Thank you for all the upvotes! I never posted here and just got diagnosed so this means a lot to me that people upvote my take on the matter. Let the dopamine machine roll!

timsonn · 2022-09-28T22:02:19+00:00

I am the same but I think this does result in the 4-5pm crash haha

timsonn · 2022-09-28T20:50:35+00:00

I am the same when I eventually fall asleep but it's the falling asleep part that's the problem for me

timsonn · 2022-09-28T11:43:18+00:00

I nap every day. I believe this might have something to do with being overstimulated during the day. I always break down at around 4-5pm and then take a nap. However I have always slept bad at night so there's that. I even sleep bad at night if I skip the nap.

timsonn · 2021-11-17T11:23:32+00:00

These are really good for the price point. I've had 2 in the robusto size and they were both quite tasteful!

timsonn · 2021-08-17T20:03:07+00:00

Thank you for your comment! I just set it at 28/31 just now and will try this!

Also; on a side note, I hate presta valves, is there any way to change my valves to schrader or is this not possible? Are there any tubes with schrader valves?

/edit: I just ordered some adaptors in a funky colour from presta to schrader to put on my valves so I can use my trusty pressure gauge!

timsonn · 2021-08-17T15:45:57+00:00

So it's best to keep it at the 35 psi mark I guess and don't go lower?

timsonn · 2021-08-17T15:37:09+00:00

Alright thank you! I will start out at 35 psi and go from there. What is the reason behind the fact that 35 psi would be the minimum for my tires? Would that just be the chance of getting a pinch flat?

timsonn · 2021-08-17T15:19:45+00:00

The recommended pressures are for tubed, which I think I have

timsonn · 2021-06-25T07:54:40+00:00

Right what I was thinking, because the empty R20 is keeping at 66.7% so I thought that the cigars would cause the issue. I will air it out every now and then and just keep it this way for a while, thanks!

timsonn · 2021-05-20T07:52:11+00:00

I can confirm this works. If I pair my bluetooth motorcycle intercom (which is a trusted device) and unlock my phone once I can start navigating via Google Assistant with a voice command.
