    What have you done to your bike today?

    Last night, while I was giving my bike a once over, I discovered that my crank arm was broken. The pedal insert detached from the carbon crank arm. It was holding on by a thread so I grabbed some Gorilla glue and duct tape. Somehow it all held together for the Ringwood group ride. 🫣 New...

    My Wolf Tooth is smaller than the original Orbea collar. You can see in this photo that it doesn't cover the entire clamping surface on my frame.

    Probably not. 🤣 But seriously... does no one else have this problem? My friend has the same issue with his YT and he has the stock collar. *We both weigh over 200 lbs.

    Bike hacks

    The seat collar is holding me up. It doesn't do a good job of preventing the dropper post from sliding down when I ride. I know a few people with this problem. If you torque down too much on the collar, the dropper post gets sticky. The strip of tape prevents the post from sliding down so I...
