JT!

I generally only use facebook these days when I receive an actual notification. I've also kept on top of my news feed so all the shit I don't want to see isn't there and now it's pretty much family and friends pictures and trump memes.

I went and got a beer out the fridge just so I could fit in with the rest. Merry Christmas all!

Nah, I know it's the wheel because you can literally see the wheel wobble back and forth when you pedal backwards. The forks are burly too. Might just try and back off the breaks a little more but the lever is going to be hitting the grips soon.

Bought a Razor DXT drift trike a few weeks back. Great fun and a good toy for $100. However the wheel swayed quite badly. Contacted customer service and they send me a new one. It's exactly the same. The wheel is true it just depends on what position the cranks are in. Under heavy pedalling the brake will rub. Bearly ever use the brake so I'm trying to come up with a way to make sure the pads are far out as possible to stop this from happening. I don't need the stopping power so trying to think of a way to trade off power for distance. Any ideas?

I guess I've got a lot of movies to watch then.

So I've certainly bit off more than I can chew with the chainring. 50t with 12-25t on the back is too high geared. I mean it's great for mild hills and on the level, but any kind of actual real incline and I'm toast. I'm deciding between 38, 40 or 42t. Probably gonna go with a 40t. But can't seem to find anything that isn't crazy high priced, in 130mm BCD, that isn't in China. Any ideas?

I'll never make a list like that and leave out The Shawshank Redemption.

Haha, look at the "frequently bought together".

Pretty new, maybe only been out in it a dozen times. It's a Shimano Sora mech. I'll keep an eye out and see what ebay has to offer.

Also, what would you guys suggest for a 8spd shifter?

Hum, didn't even know that was a thing. But, I did take it out for a test ride and once I got the bike out of the house and onto the road it didn't really seem to sound that bad. First time I've used a bike stand to mess with the gears indoors so maybe it was expecting it to be silent. Also a few miles on it seems to have helped too, seemed much quieter after it got bedded in... if that's a thing?

I mean, it's in the middle. My issue now is trying to set up my rear derailleur. It's obviously not moving far enough to the right, in the bottom gear it jumps between the bottom two rings. But when I mess with the set screws I see absolutely no movement. Edit: Scrap that, been so long since I worked on a bike with gears forgot which way around they were. Gears shift and line up fine. It all just sounds like a cement mixer when I pedal.

Nope. So I put on a NW chainring and that solved the dropping issue, it's a little clunky now though, gonna make sure the derailleur is tuned tomorrow but I feel like there's still gonna be an issue.

Not visited this thread for a while to avoid spoilers. Dunkirk was good, didn't get the kid on the boat thing. Did nothing but act like a bitch, make mistakes and went down as a hero? Rest of the movie was great though. The Last Jedi was utter dogshit. Hated it. The death of Snoke was the biggest WTF for me. Absolutely no character development for him. The plot didn't really seem to move in any direction. I don't get how they're going to wrap all this up in the last movie.

This is the case. I ordered a NW chainring so now I just got to play the waiting game.

After doing research, I need a "narrow wide chainring". Didn't even know those were a thing.

Removed the two smaller rings and put the biggest one in the middle. Removed the derailleur and cables etc. I knew that all the rear gears worked fine on the middle ring, so I didn't think I'd end up with a problem, but now the chain will fall off when using the bigger rings on the back and there seems to be a lot of scraping and clunking going on at the back. Never done this before, anyone have any idea what's going on?

I'm still working on braking 90 seconds.

How did it lighten the rotational mass if all helium does is make it lighter?

Similar problems.

Shame you couldn't take the screen off and leave it in the freezer for a few days.

Perfect dog on the adoption site was adopted this morning.

For me, a 8 hour sleep is more like two 4 hour sleeps. I'm always awake at some point right in the middle for a short period of time. Sometimes I go pee. I fall right back asleep though. My advice would be to just lay there with your eyes closed. You may find that within 30 mins you'll be back asleep even if you feel wide awake. Ever considered sleeping with an air purifier on? The sound doesn't take long to get used to with it being very consistent and it blocks out most other noises. Also, multivitamin. Try for a month and see what happens. You didn't mention what time you go to bed?

I think I last went to the dentist when I was 19 and now I'm 31. Problem is I still have two of my baby teeth and they're looking a bit off colour these days. I really should make an appointment.

I've got 4 chromecasts in my house and one is an ultra. I'll wait till amazon see sense, I'm not playing their game.
