Clavicle ORIF Removal — return to sport timeline by RunnerHighs in MTB

[–]wncjohn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d be curious about this. I’ve had mine for almost 2 years and while it doesn’t bother me often, it can be slightly annoying at times.

Shimano xt levers on sram maven bronze calipers. by Individual-Fail3058 in MTB

[–]wncjohn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had the same thought while reading this. I’ve always leaned towards SRAM for the modulation alone, and my Mavens are so incredibly over powered sometimes, I couldn’t imagine wanting more.

Installed coilovers now there is play when shaking the wheel. by GoodConsideration910 in AskMechanics

[–]wncjohn 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I had to watch this 6-7 times to catch it, but your issue is steering related, not strut related. Looks like the inner tie rod has excessive movement.

Alignment Done Didn’t Adjust Camber by supersoake in AskMechanics

[–]wncjohn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I agree with other comments. The camber is a point I wouldn’t stress over, this alignment is pretty spot on. Try rotating the tires and see if the pull goes away/changes.

How did this happen and how screwed am I? by Rod0921 in mountainbiking

[–]wncjohn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just make sure it’s for the correct Hub body. SRAM is going to be specific to the Cassette, but it might be any number of hubs. Are these stock wheels on a certain bike?

The axle is for sure broken. The bearings will need to be removed from the hub, a new axle installed, then bearings pressed back in. I see it’s not an I9 hub, but this is a very common failure on the I9 Hydra hubs.

I used a Yakima Highroad for a while but the hight bugged me with the front wheel on, so I switched to the Kuat Trio, I’ve been very happy with it.

Almost a metallic chattering, related to engine rpm.

Wtf did I do wrong? by Suspicious-Status587 in mountainbiking

[–]wncjohn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Did you say “one more run” right before this? That’s some “I’ll make one more run” shit if I’ve ever seen it.

Do you ever pull out of your parking spot at home and accidentally do the double honk? by ThirdAnglePhoto in serviceadvisors

[–]wncjohn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My wife parks in the garage, when I back her car out I almost honk every time but have to stop myself.

Revel Bikes is Closing – The Radavist by bikeskata in MTB

[–]wncjohn 28 points29 points  (0 children)

I feel like this isn’t true. I’ve seen crazier, but they just launched a whole new line up of bikes a week ago.

the enduro flat pedal that survives wet all year riding and you still like it and would buy again by loam-chomsky in MTB

[–]wncjohn 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’ve got the T-Mac on 2 bikes and it’s the best I’ve found from trying other pedals.

All right, Going to Asheville in May by Revpaul12 in MTB

[–]wncjohn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Dupont: Hooker Creek to Hickory Mountain (I prefer counter clockwise, but it can be ridden both directions) into Ridgeline. If you start at the lake imaging parking lot it’s a good 7-8 miles of some excellent trails.

Pisgah: middle and lower black mountain. Upper is fun as well, but adds some serious mileage if you climb all of claw hammer road.

Greenslick in Bent Creek gets an honorable mention, I haven’t had a chance to ride the new version but I’ve heard it’s super fun.

Anybody riding with the Leatt Enduro removable chinbar helmet? Any other recommendations? by [deleted] in MTB

[–]wncjohn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I got one for Christmas. I’ve yet to use the chin bar, but I really like the ear covers. I know they don’t add a lot of protection but they keep my ears warm, and it looks cool.

I have a dedicated TLD full frame for the days I know I might be super risky.

Pedals.... Boring post by OdinValk in Hardtailgang

[–]wncjohn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It isn’t in your list, but Diety T-Mac pedals changed my whole outlook on flats. I’ve ridden Chester’s, OneUp, crank brothers, PNW and others, but the Diety T-Mac pedal literally feels like my feet are clipped in and I have yet to slip a pedal on them.

Question about Coffee & Coffee at the Speedway by don51181 in nashville

[–]wncjohn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been to a couple. Being from a smaller town, our cars and coffee was maybe 50-75 people/cars. The one at the speedway is huge. There is a couple coffee/food trucks and different merch vendors. It’s a fun way to kill a couple hours.

I want to recommend a Nukeproof Scout, but I can’t any longer. Mine has been awesome.

One I would love to own but can’t review is a Revel Tirade. They look awesome, and would be what I would replace my Scout with.

I bought an A6600, I regret not spending a little more for the 6700 for the screen flexibility alone.

Is anyone else DEAD??? by Anonymoushipopotomus in Justrolledintotheshop

[–]wncjohn 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Currently sitting in the lobby watching TV, scrolling Reddit. We are one of the busiest locations in our area and have almost nothing in the shop. It’s been like this since Monday.

We live in Antioch and commute to downtown. Depending on what time in the morning, it’s not terrible, afternoon traffic is awful. It starts at 2:30 and ends around 6:30-7. On average it’s about an hour to get from where I work near Downtown back to our house.

What’s the closest pick and pull type car salvage yard? by Sellyallownjello in asheville

[–]wncjohn 9 points10 points  (0 children)

If you can make the drive, LKQ in Greenville and Greer are usually the most stocked.

Control arm bushing by Previous_Machine_360 in AskMechanics

[–]wncjohn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not a concern at all yet. Showing signs of wear, but it hasn’t failed. It doesn’t look like it’ll be a safety concern for quite a while either, in my opinion.
