If I was single and made of money, the Grand Loop, any variant, would be on my top ten list.

Shimano Hyperglide+ anyone?

I looked at one before I bought my Tesoro. It's a great looking bike, but $6,500 with Apex? $7,500 with AXS? Nah.

I want to see more flat bar lightweight e-bikes like the Pinarello Nytro Allroad E and the Scott Silence with the HPR drive unit and range options.

Mine is just like that one, but larger, more rectangular.

It depends on your riding environment and how often you clean it. I could easily get three chains out of a cassette on my race bike, because I cleaned it every 2-3 weeks, or right after racing or training in the rain. I'm not talking about using brushes or floss, I'm talking about taking the...

It's an elastomer, not a spring. There is some amount of damping in the rebound direction. It doesn't clunk like my old spring based one did.

The pilot hole should be just under shank size, so 3/16"-1/4" for a 3/8". I would not only sister the joists, I'd install blocking on either side of the lifting joist, screwed to the adjacent joists. Like the guy with the shed with the corrugated roof, I'm concerned that your tile ceiling will...

TQ claims their system is more efficient than its competitors.

Just because the tires are tubeless ready, doesn't mean that the wheels are tubeless ready. The rim needs to be taped properly, and a tubeless valve stem installed.

What kind are you looking for? What size?

Motors such as this TW HPR40, the Maxon, and the Watt Assist, are designed to be not just light and minimal, they are also designed to be stealthy, with frame colored covers to hide them. This is going to be an issue in US local and regional racing. As an official, that scares me. Someone is...

Thank you. Right now, I'm not carrying a pump or CO2, just relying on the tire protection, but I'll bring a pump now. My Tesoro has 55-622 Schwalbe Big Ben block tread tires. I'm not trying to ride in soft sand, just loose sand and gravel. Should I air down? I have 34psi in them now.

Congratulations, Stefan.

With a tubeless wire bead tire, you have to break the bead from the rim. If you don't have a bead tool, push with both thumbs as hard as you can to try and open up a gap, then use a tire lever to pop the rest of it off. I've also used a 1" putty knife, carefully.

I swapped my Craptastic Cannondale squeaky Suntour clone suspension seatpost for a used Eesilk Plus that I found on Marketplace. I usually do very well with used gear, but occasionally I get a dud. It needs the bushings and o-rings replaced, so I ordered the kit. I still saved some money. It...

Where I live, the wind is constant. It's more of a factor than elevation, because I like to ride fast.

Yesterday, I didn't have a lot of time to ride, so I decided to repeat the first ride I posted here, to Skaket Beach in Orleans and back. I thought that this time I'd try to do it all in Mode 1 (Eco) as the wind was under 10mph. At the start, I felt like crap, super tight, cement legs. I was...

Dude, you were flying. Especially for an Old Guy.

That beautiful tile ceiling :oops:
