you do realise derailleurs are not meant to be perishable |
Assuming, lubricante with propor lubricant |
i had a chinese chain for this 11speed gravel build, wiped it down and lubed it like every couple of rides |
Chain sticking and derailleur folding and snapping |
fully stretched like 600 miles in not even ebike |
lol wtf |
basically he doesnt know how to take care of a bike |
considering how rusted he let the first one go |
I don't maintain it that well |
this takes skill |
please do in the future if ya manage to get either sorted lmao |
It's my sole transportation |
Yeah I hope so |
So you **Should have** taken more care :/ lol |
Yes definitely lol |
Basically drivetrain maintenance |
sole transportation rusted, no rear brake |
front brake comically mounted to be useless |
i too like to stand over my handlebars when i pull the front brake |
ü§£ the bolt actually isn't tightened yet |
gets me extra airtime |
I was using Regen for my brakes |
The other bike has no brakes at all |
But I'm saving up for some |
I had some good 4piston hydros |
Dont go for clarks m4s |
Till the pads wire and piston popped out |
Wore |
Wow you abusing tf outta the bike lol |
LoL I know |
I tow heavy loads too in trailers |
fk lol |
You really need to get your bike in tip top condition to be doing that |
how do hydro cables wear out |
theres no cables in them its liquid |
typo i think |
Ive snapped countless sprockets on my Cadettes and freewheels |
Meant to say wore not wire, autocorrected me |
how do hydraulic lines pop out |
The piston from pad wear |
What im confused about is how much bare metal u must have gone through to let the pistons shit emselves out |
so you ran the break pads to the metal and never noticed |
I noticed, just didn't have a backup |
And being my sole method of transportation, didn't want to stop using the bike |
£8 in brake pads |
And shipping takes 2 weeks to a month to get here |
Should have noticed it beforehand |
no local shop? |
Had the brake pads come but then it's been too late |
well a bleed kits like £15 and |
2 and a half hour car drive away |
you can just reinsert the pistons |
better than waiting 2weeks and riding an unsafe bike |
I'll get a kit and more pads |
Also |
My frames dropout I grinded, to accomodate my larger axle |
could've unhardened the dropouts |
I broke a derailleur hangar too when my derailleur snapped |
Also , this is how I usually snap sprockets |
Yo I love the off-road trailer. Also sorry bout the hangar, usually they’re replaceable |
@Melez thanks man , check out this one I used to tow around |

Ok. That’s hilarious/amazing |
That looks pretty mad haha! But it looks hella heavy, which leads me to think braking must be horrible lol |
lol note how slow he goes down that hill.. and that thing is just hoppen lol |
I like the quick break-away when it tipped over at about 1:15 in the vid. Doesn't look like it pulled on the bike much at all. |
lol I missed that.. holy it rolled on that tiny hill/rut |
man, suspension be important lol |
also lol at that thing having a chimdy |
like how many times has he had to replace it from getting smashed in a rollover lol |
Actually none , it only rolled over about 3 times , trick is to be careful, next one is gonna have 24inch wheels instead of 26, as well it probably weighs only about 120-150 lbs . I had some good 4 piston brakes when I was towing it . Biggest problem was keeping balance because the hitch being so far back |
Oh wow didn't realize that was yours |
Note that in granny gear on bbshd because of chainline issues and heavy load uphill I busted off a sprocket a couple times |
Quite the cargo capacity there. you'd get along well with @Yadi |
I am working on another all around trailer and also a utility trailer |
Did the front of the trailer have a foot or something? |
I think the heavy est load I've towed was around 350-400lbs. But that's just asking for a broken sprocket. The bbshd was crawling up that hill |
lol. |
Yes for when I was stationary, I used old crutches and hinges that locked into place |
Yea iv folded over a sprocket with my cyclone before.. was brand new too |
Just didn't use 1st/2nd gear for 2 weeks till I replaced it lol |
Makes me wanna find/ build a heavyer duty drivetrain |
(wanted to get at least SOME use outta that sprocket) |
LoL same |
Yeaa.. I really want like, a 3 speed |
50%/100%/150% |
but they are all 85/100/115% and that is just lammeee |
Twas looking at em too they are all just too less teeth |
and the 7 speeds that will handle middrives are $$$$$ |
Too much $$$ to risk wrecking one.. |
Which ones are you talking about |
I forget, but there are some known for holding up under e-bike stress but IIRC they are like $600+? |
I had a few labeled heavy duty for ebike they still broke on me |
Oh shit |
Never mind |
yea lol |
and like, the old nvinchi(?) CVT hubs |
(that are also like $600+ when they where still made..) |
If I knew how to weld , tediously, possible could try to rig something up |
