Wannabe Posted May 21, 2020 Posted May 21, 2020 I finally received my Saris M2 on Monday afternoon.Due to work pressure I only managed to get it fully set up, synced and calibrated yesterday afternoon. Did two short sessions, and my first impressions with the Rouvy app, is that is an almost real life experience, and damn hard work to boot. T-Bob, Mopkop, The Ghost and 2 others 5
T-Bob Posted May 21, 2020 Posted May 21, 2020 Got Ghillie Kettle / Kelly Kettle / Thermette for my b/day. Was supposed to be a bike packing pressie from the wife along with my Hennesy Hammock tent but turned that the one she bought was the big one so bike packing kit has now gone straight to the camping kit and I'm stoked! Boils up a large amount of water in about 4 minutes just using tinder, leaves etc. Steven Knoetze (sk27), DJR, Riaan H and 18 others 21

T-Bob Posted May 21, 2020 Posted May 21, 2020 Those things are absolutely amazing and they work like a bomb. My kiwi mates swear by them and I can see why. Keen to get into the wilderness with it... but for now I'm going to make a brew at the end of the garden and have the kids wonder why their dad is so weird! DJR, Hairy, Jako De Wet and 3 others 6

You have to test it. It's written down somewhere, in a crusty old tome called "standard initial operations of new implements" or something. Like a tent in the back garden / lounge / garage. You have to check to see if it all works out properly, and leave the tent poles at home at least once in its life. EDIT: Preferably within 30 min of leaving home, most likely when you're 30 min away from the destination and you've already travelled for 5 hours.

Reme Le Hane Posted May 22, 2020 Posted May 22, 2020 This is why I started the more "correct" albeit tedious method of drop per link chain lubing... Thank goodness my lbs is open...

Did you see Boesman88s thread on this? Same chain, same problem. I don't think it has anything to do with putting lube on each link. Edited May 22, 2020 by Longbarn Killer ChrisF, Dusty and MORNE 3

I don't think it has anything to do with putting lube on each link.Putting it on is how I spotted it. Forces me to look at every link. Rather spot that at home than in the middle of a ride.

ibruegge Posted May 23, 2020 Posted May 23, 2020 Morning all, so I got the below toddler seat to roll the little one around the hood for a few minutes after sunrise, but I am technologically challenged.How do I increase the space where the clamp is supposed to go (blue section!)?The steerer tube isn't any longer, need about 8mm more to put a 3rd spacer on and then the clamp.Is the solution maybe another stem that "uses" less space on the steerer tube, or how do I manage to win a bit more space to use this baby seat finally?
