Maybe I'll hook it up to a space heater and see that it actually yaknow trips. or just take it apart. |
oooooooooof rear derailleur exploded |
LUL |
ah who needs one anyways XD |
i replaced the rear shift cable and now the RD won't move any more |
it's officially out of my league, hoping a shop can tell me whats wrong |
just speaking of RD's exploding |
it was frustrating since i was essentially doing a tune of the entire bike |
when u replaced it did u lube it |
? |
also |
how wont it move? as in u shift but it doesnt shift? or u cant even use the shifter? |
limit is set correctly |
bike was shifting slowly before replacement |
now the shifter doesn't click at all |
new cable is in |
i shortened the housing slightly cause i noticed it was too long |
cable has tension |
can u move the derailer manually? |
RD is mostly aligned |
does it feel sticky? |
yeah i can that's how i know that the limit is set correct |
hmm |
not sticky at all |
if u pull on the cable directly does it shift? |
it was shifting before, just slow |
it'll move. but i'm not about to yank on internal cables |
i mean take it out of the shifter |
and pull with normal amount of pressure |
see if it moves |
if it does, its ur shifter |
the derailleur is fine |
if it isnt then the cables hanging on something |
yes |
i know |
thats why im saying pull on the cable manually, itll tell u if its the cable or tubes, or the shifter itself |
maybe. i'll check it later cause i'm tired |
when i swapped my cables they shifted better after i use some oil inside the channels |
been working all week no days off |
yeah i did that too |
try the manual cable pull when u get the chance |
but it's all internal routed so i don't want to mess with pulling out cables right now |
from the shifter |
open the shifter and remove the cable from that end and pull and test |
well yeah i'd have to push it through |
that's what i'm saying is that i don't have cable to do that |
hows the cable attached to ur shifter? |
detach from derailer to get some slack, open shifter, disconnect cable and pull it out, then reattach at the derailer and pull on the now freed end |
like that |
yeah i can do that. it's just an asspain cause of the way its routed |
remove from derailer, remove derailure tube, use slack to remove front shifter |
i frayed the last shift cable doing that |
and had to bin it |
...ok. pulling on the cable moves the RD |
cool. guess i have to buy a new R8020 shifter |
dats sucky |
nah. just expensive |
silly roadie, just get a trigger shifter XD |
jk |
wouldn't make it any less expensive. |
not when you have hydraulic brakes. |
well actually i guess it would but w/e |
sure sucks to suck |
i currently have hybrid brakes |
hydros that are cable actuated |
all the hydro part is in the caliper |
so its a drop in upgrade |
i really hope its not a shifter |
O O O O OF |
replaced a cable and it broke the shifter. i really hope that wasn't what happened |
ebikes kind of need the hydro brakes |
ya |
thats why i upgraded to the semihydros |
but i dont go fast enough to invest in afull hydro |
new bike thoyu |
ohhhh boy |
that bitch needs massive hydro |
@EPHIIOS lol ever bike iv bought used iv replaced all the cables and the bike felt new |
they get so gummy after awhile |
yep new cables are nice |
its like new jammies |
all fixed + new chain |
so i goofed when i put in the new cable and never noticed |
the mechanic showed me |
Was that why it brokeded? |
yeah |
it's a reminder not to do bike tuneups at 10 pm when ultra tired |
that's a good reminder |
I do mine at 3 am when ultra tired |
yep, then i go up to the bike the next day and wonder if someone tried to prank me by messing with my bike |
dirtyboye |
The one day where the weather is nice and I'm free of schoolwork, my freewheel decides, "yep, gonna grenade on ya" |
It just spins freely now lol |
XD |
Think it's time for new tires fam lol |
Yeahhhh..... |
They're slicks now :D |
Oh hey |
someone else runs the schwinn ammo box set up |
Lol |
