Based on some of your other posts it’s seems like your bike would explode if you took it off a curb 🤣

Why don’t you use the compressor to put them on? Much easier than zip ties. I would if I had one.

If Bullet did a frontflip it would have to be called a ‘Tumble’.

I’ve used the zip tie method to put them on before, worked well. Haven’t tried it for removing them though.

Must be why I don’t own a mountain bike.

First thought I had too. I'd be shit-scared that I'd grab a handful of front brakes and go arse over tit. I can image Bullet becoming a lip lord at the park though.

Wax pegs with ledge sleeves.

They moved, it was fine. This wasn’t worth a thread on here, I think I was having a bad day yesterday!

I would, but they left about 15 hours ago.

But then there will just be a thread asking if there are any pedals that dont wear down at the end really quickly.

I can’t quite picture what you mean. Is the sleeve thicker at the end, then?

I don’t think anyone is making sleeves with harder compounds at the end. Might just have to put up with it.

Just gotta lean into the grind less. My venom sleeves were doing that. I took it as an indication of a technique problem. Now my grinds slide a lot further from being a little more balanced.

There it is.

As said above, 11 back 1.5 up is super common. As is 9 rise. If you don’t care about brands then (as long as they’re full chromoly) just choose the ones that you like the shape of best.

Totally agree about the helmet, and setting an example. I even put mine on to ride in the driveway with my son. I can’t control what he does when he’s older, but while I still have some say, helmets are on.

Odyssey par ends. Last forever. I don’t have any informed opinion on hub guards, and in regards to pads I use the fuse whip shin/ankle combo pads. Love them.
