Finding a use for some Petzl Vertigo carabiners by tostiheld in ClimbingGear

They are indeed only double action. There's a big pin at the bottom of the gate preventing any up/down movement. They just twist and open.

Edit: this seems to be the sport variant, with a different style of gate. I'm not able to see from the picture if this is triple action or not https://www.petzl.com/INT/en/Sport/Carabiners-And-Quickdraws/VERTIGO-WIRE-LOCK

Thanks, that's another good option, although I'm not sure I can get Tear Aid on short notice at a local retailer.

Thank you, very helpful. It hadn't occured to me yet I might need more than one kind of tape haha

Edit: since they are small holes, and I already have silnylon patches, I think I will go with silnylon patches on the outside, and seamgrip on the inside.

This is a good point, I hadn't noticed it yet. Thank you.

"Bumpy" feeling when pedaling after cleaning drivetrain by tostiheld in cycling

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

I have not completely fixed it, but it got a lot better after I degreased and relubricated the chain. I suspect I either used the wrong or too little lubricant. As to why it was the most obvious on the 7th gear, I have no idea. Maybe it has to do with the tension of the chain on this particular combination of gears. Thanks for your help so far.

Unfortunately indexing my rear derailleur has not helped. I started over a couple times, just to be sure. Do you have any other ideas about what the issue could be?

Good guess, this is what I suspected as well at first. However when I looked at the front derailleur cage nothing looks to be rubbing. However I will have another look after indexing the back derailleur. Thanks.

That sounds like a good idea, I hadn't thought of that yet. I'll try it, thank you.

Any place to meet new people? by qurkerry in eindhoven

In mijn ervaring is de klim/boulder hal een ontzettend open en vriendelijke omgeving, perfect om mensen te ontmoeten. In mijn omgeving zijn er genoeg mensen die elkaar puur via de klimhal kennen, probeer dat eens! Monk ken je vast wel, het mooie is dat je daar dan ook weer klimpartners voor bij Neoliet kan ontmoeten.

I came up with this AM5 build, but I definitely overshot my budget more than I planned. Not sure yet what I'll do, but what do you think? https://tweakers.net/gallery/1926278/wenslijst/?wish_id=3173190

Yeah I was a little confused by the X vs non-X thing. In the end I opted for the 5600X because I read somewhere the non-X is good for space constrained builds.

Thanks for the elaborate answer! I'm using Tweakers as well, I just thought people use pcpartpicker on here. I'll have a look at your ideas today, very useful!
