@WilliamNB@nick@cycling@schizanon@famousringo@ssamulczyk I have never had a front derailleur fail either, but then I run friction & replace the cables reasonably often. When servicing other folks bikes, particularly older & lower end bikes, I get a lot of trouble adjusting worn & poorly engineered indexed front derailleurs.
Just run friction, especially on front derailleurs. Few set up issues & so easy to trim.
Kind of annoyed with White Industries at the moment. The original press-fit bearings in my Stanyan’s MI5 rear hub needed replacement a long while ago, so I had my local bike shop order them (which took forever to be shipped by Enduro) and swap them out. Unfortunately, the same amount of play persisted after the bearing swap despite said shop following White Industries’s directions to the T multiple times. My shop has called White Industries multiple times only to not be given any recourse.
I’ve been out that Stanyan for several weeks now and I don’t know if I should just get a different hub put in the wheel or something at this point. :blobfoxannoyed:
My theory is, when I get my #morning#cycling I’m feeling much better throughout the entire day. If I didn’t, you have me falling asleep at noon…🤡 @cycling@rower
@f800gecko Until now I’ve been using cheap neoprene shoe covers. Those shoes are now discounted from €250 to €160, so never better time to get ones… Hoping they will keep my feet warm in winter as well… Proper test will come soon as weather in #Poznan is gonna turn into shit in next few days…🤷🏻♂️🥸 @cycling@rower
@InkySchwartz I’m fully aware that hashtag might be misleading…🤣 Yes, it doesn’t look like the mediterranean.
Trivia: It’s an artificial lake with a regatta course named after the Order of Malta (Hospitaller) who owned a church nearby and the land…🙄 @cycling@rower
