Tell your wife you do not like your job anymore and you would like to have a baby (her doing the birth giving obviously) so you can be a stay at home dad/house husband and if she can get a job earning enough money to support your family plus pay her brothers mortgage she is more than welcome to become his guarantor.

I recently bought some shorts with a detachable padded liner and I was not sure with way was the inside.
What appears to be the outside has smooth seams through out but what would then be the inside had protruding seams where the material joins plus a thick pad sewn in with a thick seam surrounding it.

Made more sense to me that they would be better worn inside out as no seams to chaff as with my running grundies.
As chaffing is no joke, having the genitalia of the singing detective.

His parents are not prepared to put there property up as collateral so why should you. As I fear you will be risking a lot more.

If you find yourself paying his mortgage or can’t afford to and he loses the house and you end up with the debt I can’t see you marriage surviving that, unless your are a saint you will be as bitter as hell.

VHS had bigger wheels, no brainier really.

Can you push on the splined tool and then put a bolt and washer through the hole threading into the bb to hold it in place. Then stand on a large adjustable.

You are trying to turn the right way (just asking).

The building company I used to work for, if we were snowed under or the customer came across as a complete nightmare, the boss would put in a ridiculessly high quote. Making him 99% sure he would not get the job, but if he did it would be worth his while.

So maybe they were busy. :D

I really don’t see it being a problem,
Reminds me of the old doctor it hurts when I do this joke.

The 40t is where the 36 would be so the chain line left to right would be the same, so it would ether have something to do with the increased height of the sprocket compared to the chainring or maybe the way the shape of the teeth have been designed and milled, maybe the way they have been designed to easily pick up the chain is what makes it drop off when going backwards and a design tweak could fix it.

The deraileur I can not see having any influence as in normal use it guides the chain on to the sprockets so is on the wrong side of the cassette to influence the chain when pedalling backwards.

The appropriate penalty for shouting strava in public.

That looks good to me.

Is there any difference between the resistance when the clutch is turned off to when it is turned on.

Give it a good rinse and hang up to dry.

If I have been lazy and not rinsed It within a couple of days of a ride I will fill it up and add two tablespoons of thick bleach and leave over night before rinsing and drying.

I try to do the bleach thing every month or so anyway.

I have two hilos, both work a treat.

I increased the air pressure in one as it was a bit slow to come up, Which did not make much difference.
But after a couple of rides it was fine.

Also while topping up with air make sure you keep it upside down as if not when unscrewing the pump you get a blast of oil.

I have used one with remote for best part of a year and the other with the under seat lever.
I actually renewed the cable on the first one last night with the unused cable from the second as it was too short due to moving remote after going 1×10.

Please leave them on.
I took mine off a couple of weeks ago, and it immediatly started to rain and continued to do so for a week.

I learnt to ride on a tomahawk. Can still picture me wobbling down the road with my step dad running along side.

But if you bent the mud flaps into the tyre you had a motorbike.

I had an xl, I was gutted as I was promised an ultra burner.
It was quickly stolen from outside my local swimming pool so was back on my tomahawk before building up an old super tuff frame.

Growing up raleigh was the ford of the bike industry, kiddies bikes anyway,
We had grifters, choppers. strikers and boxers before the mighty burner .

Shame they don’t make bikes here anymore.

Pardon!

I stand up

I have recently given up kebabs so I too one day will be able to make such a statement. :D

At swinley you come out of the forest onto a fire road that is a relatively steep climb, for me anyway that takes you up to labarinth I believe.

At that point in order to make it up that slope I have to first get into my lowest gear quickly.
Then lean to the left of my fork to drop from 150 to 120, then lean to the right of my fork to stiffen it up a bit more, then lastly between my legs to engage the pro pedal.

If I do not do the above quickly and efficiently I may not make it :D .This is due to me being a middle aged biffer on a five, so one less knob to twiddle is a beautiful thing.

Sheldon browns gear ratio calculator
States

24 ring – 36 sprocket – 26″ wheel = 1.3 gain ratios
24 ring – 36 sprocket – 29″ wheel = 1.4 gain ratios

Bomberman I think your equation for calculating gear ratios on bicycles is not correct as you do not allow for a wheel.

I would also add a couple of links if running 1x.

I would go big big plus two on a triple as I would never ride in big big but would be covered in case of accidental shifting into said combo.

But with 1x you will ride big big deliberately and if struggling after running out of gears you will be putting some torque through it. That Said I would rarely be riding where suspension would be fully compressed in my lowest gear.

But still I would add another couple of links.

Xt chains are directional, well how you join them anyway.

You bring the open outer link over your chainring and then join to the closed link underneath if that makes sense.
Apparently this way the chain is stronger, according to the instructions .

Also make sure you push the joining pin in in the same direction you pushed the old one out when you split it.

I fitted the same set up as chipbutty a couple of days ago, all new parts and new chain.
Mine drops two sprockets while back pedalling.
I tried adjusting the b screw despite not seeing how that could make any difference, which it did not, but I found if it was not wound in enough the chain would drop two sprockets then jam between the mech and cassette. I then tried using the supplied longer b screw and found if the b screw was screwed in too far it also jammed between the mech and cassette after dropping two sprockets.

So went back to the original screw screwed all the way in which was where I started.

The chain still dropped two sprockets but did not jam and climbed easily and quickly the moment you pedal forward.
I think this is due to tight tolerances in the new components and the narrow wide chainring which has very tight tolerances by design.

I really can’t see it being a problem as I don’t pedal backwoods accept for maybe when coasting behind some one slower while waiting for them to give way and defiantly not in a situation where I would be in such a low gear.

And if turning half a turn for pedal positioning I would always pedal forward.
I also think as the drivetrain wears this will sort itself out anyway.

Gear ratios calculator[/url]

I forgot to say it only works with the 11-36 xt cassette, I think.

You can just remove your 17t sprocket and spacer to make room for the T. rex on the back of the cassette or remove the 15t and 17t and spacer and replace a 16t where the 15t was and put the T. rex on the back for more equally spaced gear ratios.

You can get 16t xt sprockets from rose bikes cheap enough.

Straight lining.
I thought the root of such evil was STRAVA..

Has he ever given any bike a bad review.
Has he ever slated a bike as rubbish and said your money would be better spent on y instead of x.

If not, you can draw your own conclusions,

Maybe he is just easily pleased.

I bought a few chinook chainrings before Christmas from hargroves cycles.

They were the cheapest I could find at the time. Also bought the nine speed as they were a lot cheaper than 10 speed and given the internal spacing of 9&10 speed chains are the same I could not see why they would be different.

Not helmet, baseball cap, at which point he knees himself in the face hard.

Hope he is ok.
Although I don’t know what he was thinking when he took the bike..

Is Kermit goatse?

No, just another innocent victim of the paparazzi.

I have double and bash at the moment, soon to be going 1×10.
32t RF n/w ring arrived this morning . Received an email this morning from the fatherland to say my xt 16t sprocket had been despatched and also have a 11-36 cassette and T. Rex also in the post from elsewhere.

I have a long cage xt clutch mech on the bike already and a spare med cage one in the parts bin.
Would the med cage work with a 40t sprocket.

Also I have amassed a few spare 32 & 34t rings bought cheap In sales which Iam thinking would now be of no use as the are ramped and pinned for shifting.

So has anyone used triple middle rings in a 1×10 set up with out dropping the chain .

Operation went well.

Now it’s

Time.

Maybe the op took delivery of a parcel today, but it was not a yeti inside.

£750 buys a lot of bananas.

The last stw’er who failed to update.

I have the 5450s also, stay in place and super comfy.
I could not ask for more really.
