  1. It's gone full satire on A<azon reviews https://www.amazon.com/VTSP-Fashion-Bicycle-Mechanical-Brakes/product-reviews/B00RQNRTUS/ref=cm_cr_dp_qt_hist_one?ie=UTF8&filterByStar=one_star&showViewpoints=0
  2. http://www.ebay.com/itm/171865625992 7x2, cable discs, stem shifters, 31 lbs... two tone chainrings. Each color's photo has the bar angle all over the place. Don't know what the rear brake bar is all about or maybe it;s a kickstand. I actually had a classier visp, too rigid for bad streets, never had it on a track.
  3. I (in my car) had a driver coming head on in my lane to pass a slow fedex truck on a blind curve last week and when I honked at him, he shrugged like how is this his fault.
  4. 30 miles on new pads. I did give them a spray of stop squeak at install.
  5. Do they not teach arabic lookalike flags or dildo fonts in liberal sex ed these days? http://www.thewrap.com/dildo-flag-creator-rips-cnn-over-isis-gay-pride-gaffe/
  6. http://www.bikesdirect.com/products/mountain_bikes.htm look for something at least 27 speed 3x9 or 2x10 much better quality than x7-8 http://www.performancebike.com/bikes/CategoryDisplay?storeId=10052&catalogId=10551&langId=-1&orderBy=4&searchTerm=&beginIndex=0&pageSize=12&parent_category_rn=400308&top_category=400001&categoryId=400328&metaData=
  7. wheel may spin even better hot. One side of the rotor was 10 deg hotter but it was the bottom so it may have just been conducted from the pads. Hub was hotter near the rotor than bearing so it seems ok The seat was 130f, my hot ass causing the problems again. Would the chain torque cause enough swingarm flex for the rotor to rub on acceleration? The tire was 140f and just felt warm I guess that's part of it, how denser materials feel hotter and you can walk on red hot coal.
  8. Just thinking if Donald pushing for too hard for US leaning deals would lead to countries dropping the US dollar? Of course it doesn't sound like Obama is very smooth with China last week either.
  9. http://www.imgrum.net/media/1330938849974798730_622479369 light/ tag but ,no mirrors signals...
  10. Kawasaki #191? right side gopro.. Green / Black ??
  11. "usually drives on the racetrack" " observed a black motorcycle with a tag missing "
  12. Longer vid, he passed a cruiser a minute earlier and did hit it for a short burst. sounds like he's reving before the gun's out of the holster
  13. http://circa.com/whoa/a-gopro-cam-caught-this-deputy-pulling-a-gun-on-a-motorcyclist-for-no-apparent-reason Seems like there's more to the other half of the story. biker appears to back away as soon as the truck pulls up. No shots fired apparently. Florida of course. Why does the biker keep looking behind him? He was scared of the gun.. Was he going to outrun the point blank bullet? Fucking Racebike!
  14. More draft off a truck than a motorcycle.
  15. But IF it's dragging it'll repel the wheelie monster. Dammit I'm either going to get it to cool down or mount a grill to cook bacon.
  16. Hmm if i'm gonna replace bearings I better just buy forged OZ wheels with them to rule everything out. Best brake fiix evar.
  17. Boo. the update uninstalled classic shell start menu, repinned Win store, keeps pushing one Drive login. Where did hibernate go again? oh left click WIn7 HDD is going back in soon
  18. Seems like the hub should be warmer than the rotor if the bearing was the heat source. Could check the axle temp.
  19. you just have the wrong kind of chair
  20. I lied, I had checked the lever with no play due to the return spring, the linkage shaft does have play when hot.
  21. After a 5 mile ride today in much cooler air temp front disc 81f rear disc 125f disc side hub 125 chain side hub 95f chain /sprocket 98f It does look like i'm losing freeplay in the pedal/rod when it's hot.
