Washed 3 bikes and lubed their chains. Put an ISCG-05 adapter on one of those bikes (thanks to @jimvreeland for the spacer), now just waiting for the bash guard to arrive.

Sweet. Hellen Keller is taping bars now?

 

[Steve Vai]

Took a couple hours to swap a few of my bikes back after my Everesting.

Stripped Rusty back down and put the SS group back on and put the tubeless Contis.

Put the freehub body and cages I stole off my Warroad back.

Then I put the AXS group I stole off Pinky back on. Which now that I think about was dumb because there's literally 2 AXS groups right there that I forgot I had...

I still have to put my Blackborrow back together, but it's not high on my list right now.

Picked up a new to us bike hauler.

 

[jklett]

are the bearings in the free hub replaceable? Do I care?
Salsa hub

Yes and yes(you wouldn't have asked if you didn't).

 

[Juggernaut]

Yes and yes(you wouldn't have asked if you didn't).

Such a Dad answer. ?

 

[Patrick]

Yes and yes(you wouldn't have asked if you didn't).

i was thinking about getting the sram driver and bending up a 12sp der...

Only if they feel crunchy/sticky. If it gets too bad you could start dropping the chain.

That's one way to avoid changing freehub bearings.

 

[Dingo]

Or they could lock up and suck the chain and RD into the cluster. that would make for some excitment.

@Patrick assuming you are not done already, lever the inner sleeve to the side with a long-nose punch/screwdriver/whatever, knock the OUTER bearing out past the threads, remove the internal circlip, knock the inner bearing out.

Want to sell one ? Asking for me

Thanks!! It looked like it was just pressed - had me scratching my helmet
Will revisit next time - wasn't crunchy, just tight - i cleaned/lubed the one bearing that had the seal exposed.

I can no sell. The ones I'm running are prototypes and will need to be replaced with the production groups in those boxes. You see in the Timberjack pic it's a non production XX1 cassette.

 

[rosceaux]

New tube for the single speed

 

[chris12453]

Well guys, I have added again. Already dumped my long travel enduros for a Trail 429 earlier this year with some help from Pivot and i9. Now Pivot has hooked me up again. Meet the newest addition to the Trail and Vault.

 

[Soundguy]

I finally replaced this yesterday. Crazy how much shifting improves when the cable can move freely. Who knew?
