    The Ultimate Mid-Drive Chain Care Thread

    Usually you get slop in a cassette from too much fast forwarding and rewinding. Since switching to CD and MP3, it's a non issue. 🙃

    The Ultimate Mid-Drive Chain Care Thread

    Pushing just under 6000mi on my KMC e8 chain and still not at .75 stretch. I have the Ultra tuned to avoid slamming the drive train... but it still has get up and go, so I'm having fun with a mix of on/off road. I'm also running with an IGH so the one to one sprocket config is a little gentler...

    Re-greasing the Ultra motor...is it time?

    One more update on the Cornhead grease. 4,750 mi on the motor and 4000mi since the last inspection. The motor is running quiet and smooth. I see no signs of gear wear or grease migration into controller area. Top'd it off with another tablespoon around the gear teeth and closed it back up...

    Is it possible to repair Reention battery power button (with LED lights)?

    I think that you are confused as to what a Reention Dorado battery is. It's not a specific complete battery, it's only the battery case. So any battery builder/manufacturer can buy this case and put any cells or BMS they desire in it. In the case of the OP, the circuit board he's trying to...

    The water isn't intended to filter out anything but it's purpose is to cool and add water vapor make things less harsh. 100% effective... Just ask Pooky!

    Spooked by recent recalls - Are these battery charging cabinets worth the investment?

    Still don't think co2 will work. It will displace oxygen in the air of a typical fire but it won't be able to do the same for a battery fire that is continually producing oxygen

    I don't need no Bat-Safe box.... I charge mine in the Bat Cave

    Rohloff or not?

    I believe the chain and belt cogs on the Rohloff attach similarly...though I believe there are a few variations. Clip /adapter verses lock nut. I believe the belt mostly uses the latter. So it might have been that no one had the correct lock nut tool which I believe is Rohloff specific. If that...

    I've been doing the same up until now and it's worked well for me. That said and agreeing with @stompandgo's comment above.. I just picked this up on sale for less than $10 delivered. I came across this when searching for an inexpensive bearing press... and since that worked well I figured why...

    Rohloff or not?

    I concur. I have a chain tensioner on my chain'd Rohloff... But my bike also has a rear suspension so it's really the only way to do it. That said I'm still leaning towards keeping the belt. What specifically is the problem with the belt now?

    Rohloff or not?

    Yeah but you know what a d_bag Murphy can be. He'll arrange for solar flares to take out cellphone service and on the same day he'll blow the O_rings on your hand pump seals 🙃

    Spooked by recent recalls - Are these battery charging cabinets worth the investment?

    I think it better to search cert# as a public company name can be different than their actual or there can be a parent company with a few brands Or they're just full of s*it...

    Rohloff or not?

    But you know how Murphy is.... He's not going to tell you to replace it until you're 20 miles from home and it starts raining 🙃

    Rohloff or not?

    ... and that's why I don't think keeping it fully charged is a good idea Beginning of each month I use mine to top off my tires. Ohh $hit... it's April 1st!!!

    Rohloff or not?

    This is what I ended up with. . It's a little big @ 7 inches and weighs a little less than a pound but I just don't trust the micro ones to be able to fill my larger tires. I remember Matt Robertson saying one time he had to fill his tire a few times before enough Flat-Out sealed the...
