    Square Taper crank bolts

    Do all square taper cranks use the same bolts? I have a set of Sugino GPs that I am going to use with a Tange Seiki BB. Sent from my LM-G820 using Tapatalk

    Nice looking headlight for city use

    Trying to figure out a battery powered headlight for use around town at night that doesn't look ugly. I don't want a light that look like the standard battery headlights like this. I also don't think a classic cruiser style headlight would look right. One like this. I like the Rindow...

    What front hub do I need for this fork?

    135mm is the standard fat bike hub size for quick release if it is a qr fork. If it is thru axle, I think the only two sizes are 142x12 or 150x15. ebay says the fork is 5 3/8in so I'd assume 135mm if it is like this. https://www.ebay.com/p/13017501182?iid=332608026383 This should work...

    26 MTB to gravel bike conversion to town bike

    Finally got everything sorted after having to get spacers to adjust the chainring to get the chainline to where it works. Only plans are throwing some S&M 101 BMX pedals on it (cause I am putting the Nukeproof pedals on another bike) and faster rolling tires. Otherwise put a fork in it this...

    How to tell brake and shifter cables apart

    I have a few cables and I am not sure if they are shifter or brake cables. Is there an easy way to tell them apart?

    26 MTB to gravel bike conversion to town bike

    Starting to swap this over flat bar with a On One OG V2 bar, Sunrace 11-40 8 speed cassette, Ultegra 8-speed bar end shifter, Paul Component thumbie and old XT 8 speed derauiller. But of course the Mavic wheels are a weird freehub length and I figured out I need a certain spacer for the...

    made in china

    I grew up in the 90s so my main memories of American cars were the Caviler, Taurus, SN95 Mustangs or even worse the New Edge Mustang, Grand Prix and all those other couple pieces of trash that Detroit was selling then. I think the main magazine that formed my automotive tastes was Sport Compact...

    made in china

    Made in America is zero guarantee of quality. Look at American cars in the 80s, 90s and early 00s... Don't get me wrong I try to buy American when possible but I am going to buy products based on quality regardless of where they are made. Sent from my LG-H910 using Tapatalk

    made in china

    To be fair, the Chinese can do high quality stuff and American manufacturers can do absolute ..... I have dealt with terrible parts suppliers in China, US and South Africa and great one in China and the US. But by far the shittest was an injection molding place in the US. And the best was a...

    Bike Sales Are UP !!

    The local bike shop I go to is sold out of everything but the highest end bikes. They can't keep tubes or chain lube in stock either. They had to stop taking bikes for servicing for a bit cause they couldn't keep up with the number coming in. Heck when I was furloughed for a week they offered me...

    I think Twitter is the weirdest name a company can give a bike.

    It means really good or the best. Sent from my LG-H910 using Tapatalk
