    1Up Super Duty Bolt Tightening Specs? (lost a glide bar bolt and spacer on the highway😳)

    Odd they recommend WD40 as a lubricant. Maybe there is a WD40 lubricant version?

    1Up Super Duty Bolt Tightening Specs? (lost a glide bar bolt and spacer on the highway😳)

    One of the bolts (to the arms) sheared off while on the way to Creek. Heard a loud pop and noticed the bike leaning to one side on the rear view mirror.

    Glen Park Stroudsburg, PA

    Is parking restricted on Collins St.? There seems to be a lot of parking (if allowed) if you were to continue to drive straight instead of making a right to the parking lot.

    What have you done to your bike today?

    Put together the wheels/tires. I usually use a portable 20v battery operated pump to set up the tubeless tires. But these tires (or maybe other gravel tires too) needed a real compressor to seat the bead. Used a caliper to be +/- 0.5mm centered. 🤣

    What have you done to your bike today?

    It's also the .8L. Maybe it's just too big for the size bike (52cm) or short top tube.

    What have you done to your bike today?

    Added top tube bag. It's neat and well made. Bought it to hold phone, key, and some snacks. I didn't realize that my leg would come into contact with the side of the bag when pedaling standing up or leaning the bike over on a corner. Maybe I'm just not use to it or it might be just too wide for...

    What have you done to your bike today?

    The bike was making a weird creak, crunchy sound when pedaling and when going through the travel. I thought it was coming from the bottom bracket but it ended up being the derailleur. The noise went away when I unlocked the clutch. So opened the clutch and re-greased the cylinder. Now all is...

    I was going to go with the BERD gravel wheels (GVX25) for the compliance but (living in Biden's America) I decided to get Hunt wheels at half the price of the BERDs. Pairing it with Gravel King SK + at 43c.

    EVOC bike bag for the gravel bike. I was hoping to get a bike bag that can accommodate both the MTB and gravel bike (not at the same time obviously lol), but internal handlebar and headset cabling on the gravel bike makes it impossible.

    Tell me where you rode today...

    I named the trail just to the right of you 'Bronson' on Trailforks. Named after my last dog. He was short but with lots of attitude.

    So I want to get a bike travel bag for my mtb and gravel bike. But I just noticed that most bike bags, with the exception of the EVOC road bike pro, require you to remove the handlebar and/or stem. And you'll have to lay the handlebars on the side. Makes sense since most bike bags are narrow...

    I gave this a try and I am very happy I did. It really works well and surprisingly accurate. The only time I don't get a reading is when the cars behind me are tail gaiting each other going at the same speed. It will register only as one car on the little graphic. It's great hearing the...

    Tell me where you rode today...

    The bike will look more cohesive when I get wheels with tan wall tires.

    Tell me where you rode today...

    I've only had 3 rides with it and so far so good. No numbness nor heat on hands, arms, etc. Granted my only comparison is an old slammed crit bike, so anything (including the handlebar) will feel more comfortable in comparison.

    First time on gravel. It was just like riding a bike.

    White Rim Trail at Canyonlands NP - Gravel or Trail bike?

    Which bike would you use for the White Rim Trail? I will probably do the trail in two days, so one overnight. Thoughts?
