Omg.... it's 80f (54f yesterday) pardon me I shall now ride, I don't even have to go fast; I think I'll just ride the vendetta slow and let people wonder how fast I could go if I tried. Sort of like the guy slow driving a porche on purpose.... oh and it's 80f did I mention that .... now...

Let the shipment stalking being.

Larry's bike could only be named "Vroom"

I switched to Jagwaire Elite-Link which is indeed compression-less and time consuming to install; but that's not the same as just plan old compression-less cable. Regular cable can be compression-less too; TRP sells a kit for $24. The big advantage of Link is it can make much tighter radius...

IMO, Get the TRP Hybrid; the swearing it will save you in the future for tuning will be well worth the $70. Remember you already have RIM breaks if you new rim happens to have a braking track then you don't have to do the full upgrade on day one; Wheel now brake a few months later .

Same.

Ah that's a good point. I use 17t for that since it's the most common center point on all cassettes. The head math tell me you can bias the system to your liking by changing that cog. If you set it while in the biggest cassette positions. you are going to delay the power stroke; if you put it...

Sorry bad wording I got verbal instruction on the phone. The recumbent instructions predate the surge in 110bcd popularity. The hole counting really was an over explanation. Also note These days OCP 3 is generally considered the DF default. These days. They use to say OCP2. all that matters is...

On 110BCD they can't use full holes and get alignment you guys both fell victum to the 130BCD instructions. The aero ring is 110 BCD. I called support and got the 110 BCD instructions. :mad: But my 6 steps are faster :cool:

Mrs Ratz would be very happy to name your V2. I believe it would be "Mine" from her voice. or maybe "Mrs Dibbs"

Gary, Assuming your crank are still those apex/rivals in your photos. 1) Put crank in position with right pedal at the dead spot. 2) Align the crank bolt that leads your crank arm (see big read arrow in my photo) with the hole mark #2. 3) Review the point that the chain engages the first tooth...

If you stalk ebay for a week or two they always show up for about $150 off of list. They ship on a lot of TT bikes and people sell them as unused take-offs. Got Mrs Ratz's fullset for $450 off.

Define reasonable cost? Ksyrium SL's are a pretty darn good wheel If durability = metal and not carbon. The Bontrager Aura5 is the wheel with probably the best price. Aluminum, wheel; carbon fairing; stickers peel off easy to make it match other wheels better. Run with or without the cover...

I might have one of those in the parts bin. I would be surprised if Robert still has those. PM him , if he doesn't I'll tie a rope around myself and venture into the pile of old spares. (hit enter too soon)

That login is the old website on drupal is a different password from the forums, or you don't have a user name. (Yes confusing) Lots of options for cable stops The cross hanger might be the optimal one since it includes a tension adjustment screw...

Yes your photo look normal. On a normal bike build you often have to cut the fork steam post down to the correct length; when that's the case it's a lot more obvious what that instruction means.

Someone could always send me a v20 frame and I could make a new build diary :rolleyes:

I saw final art from the place that is making them; but it's a side gig for the guy and he goes radio silent frequently; Frustrating but patience is rewarded. Thanks to repairs on the truck this week I'm not in that big a hurry to pay for the decals. If we get it done this summer I will be...

Blah I wish I had my old brol signature. Let's see what I can remember and how long I had them. Huffy something rebuild several times into various forms eventually stolen. (7 years) Schwin banana seat 5 speed the one with the cool stick shift and ape hangers. (2 years) Schwin worldsport (this...

Looks like the forum upgrade ate the PDF as it's no longer attached to that post.
