What have you done to your bike today?

[serviceguy]

I think the Shimano adapter was installed backward.

@NCHLS.mrz that's because Shimano's official stance is the max rotor size for flat mount is 160mm. They certainly don't endorse an adapter on an adapter. Just some food for thought.

 

[NCHLS.mrz]

Yes but I don’t have a 160mm rotor. And I’m trying to get a new bike ASAP so I’ll deal.

YOLO!
it's all good - grab a black sharpie and color up the brake caliper.

gl with the bike search.

Dude......you seriously tried to cold set an aluminum frame.....and then to add insult to injury ( probably your own ), you ground down the seat stays....basically destroying a frame that had to be worth more than the $10 you saved by not exchanging a rotor ? Please tell me you at least wear a helmet !

[mtbiker87]

Unpacked a butt load of parts for my FlareMax build. Cotic says the frame has been shipped !

New xpedo pedals for the evo so don't have to swap cleats. Also swapped cf Blackburn bottle cages to the systemsix:

Now have a pair of Shimano pd-6800 pedals I'll no longer need. Pennies on the dollar

@jklett
Can you pick up my wahoo from @rick81721 when you pick up these pedals for yourself? ?

 

[Cassinonorth]

Put her together. Rondo HVRT CF2. Enough clearance to run 650b 47mm tires for gravel and 32mm on 700c's. And a plus it's a Polish company. ??????????

a few weeks late, but I'll bite, just to tell everyone how nice it is to roll on a totally silent rear hub. Onyx Vesper on Stans arch rims. Hearing the natural sound of tires rolling on dirt is really enjoyable, and going from an 18T ratchet to instantaneous engagement has certainly been nice. and dope "aura" finish!

Nice! Just made the investment myself. Looking forward to the first ride. Definitely not the lightweight option, but looking forward to the silence and fast engagement.

yep, added .4 lbs total to my bike, but I went from 28 to 32 spoke count, and a heavier gauge spoke. I'm 220 or so, should be 200 so I have better places to drop weight than my bike. whatever. I'm happy with the upgrade, wheel is stiffer for sure

 

[Aresab310]

Upgraded the main ride - ready for the trails
- Fatbike away for the season until fall - for the most part and backup bike is now a backup bike.

Serviced the front / rear suspension
Built new wheels using Stans Sentry 32MM & Shimano SLX m7110 Microspline / centerlock hubs / DTSwiss spokes
Installed Maxxis Assegai 27.5 X 2.5 & DHR 2.4 w/ Stans sealant
XT M8100 Shifter / SLX 10-51 cassette / SLX M7100 RDR / XT chain
Shimano MT900 175mm crankset
Dropper needs an oil change but still works okay

 

[Soundguy]

Serviced lowers today. Buttery smooth again, yippee.

Now somebody do my shock for me because it feels like death.

 

[mtbiker87]

Frame and fork arrived today ! Time to get building !
