VPI Posted October 28, 2017 Report Posted October 28, 2017 Got the new DiNotte lights charged. I can't say the build quality is as impressive as I expected but the amount of light is ridiculous. Like cannot look into the light without seeing spots for long periods of time bright. I can see why people complain about having to follow people riding with these lights. 3
VPI Posted October 28, 2017 Report Posted October 28, 2017 Mounted the DiNotte up and the fenders but found there could not be enough clearance for the quick release on the DiNotte with the fenders mounted so I had to ghetto mount it down on the seat stay for the winter.

VPI Posted October 30, 2017 Report Posted October 30, 2017 (edited) Went to a race on the Chicago Cross Cup series today, Lots of fun. Edited October 30, 2017 by VPI 5
aerius Posted December 24, 2017 Report Posted December 24, 2017 Figured I'd drop by and see what's up. Been doing lots of riding and not much computer time these days. No hospital trips this year so it was a success. 4

CD44hi Posted February 2, 2018 Report Posted February 2, 2018 Jeff, you moved away, Freshbikes just didn't survive losing you. They went out of business yesterday.
VPI Posted February 2, 2018 Report Posted February 2, 2018 Yep, I read that. The store I shopped at actually shut down last year. My local shop in Illinois that I bought the Jones and Litespeed from also just disappeared recently.

MexicanDragon Posted March 17, 2018 Report Posted March 17, 2018 So 2 months ago, I placed an order, but didn't mention it because I didn't have a ship date. Today I got a package.2018 Lynskey Pro GRSent from my ONEPLUS A3000 using Tapatalk 5
CD44hi Posted March 17, 2018 Report Posted March 17, 2018 Congrats!How is the fit? I would have guesstimated a larger frame for you?Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

I'm 5'11", so should be just right. The 80mm stem shrinks it a bit.We'll see. Going to get some grease to install my pedals tonight. Also need some new shoes.Sent from my ONEPLUS A3000 using Tapatalk
VPI Posted March 18, 2018 Report Posted March 18, 2018 I think he was implying that you could hang more laundry on a larger frame so you chose poorly. 2 5

MexicanDragon Posted March 18, 2018 Report Posted March 18, 2018 Of course indeed that, and you can fit a couple of extra hangers if you'd gone with bull-horn bars...There is a hole that is for internal routing, which wasn't utilized, when I paid the fucking company to build my bike before shipping. I'm not amused, but there is an extra hanger point.Sent from my ONEPLUS A3000 using Tapatalk
n_maher Posted March 22, 2018 Report Posted March 22, 2018 Ordered.... along with rotors to replace the warbling, turkey-calling, Avid Elixir 7s that originally came on the MTB. Thanks to a pretty big sale and a $100 credit I had at Backcountry I should be into the whole swap for around $200. 5
VPI Posted March 22, 2018 Report Posted March 22, 2018 Huge upgrade there. ^^Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 2
MexicanDragon Posted April 1, 2018 Report Posted April 1, 2018 First ride on the Lynskey Pro GR titanium gravel bike. Couldn't find much gravel, but played in the dirt a little.Sent from my ONEPLUS A3000 using Tapatalk 5
n_maher Posted April 1, 2018 Report Posted April 1, 2018 Dying for things to dry out a bit, but mother nature is conspiring against me - the forecast for tomorrow is either rain or snow... 4
n_maher Posted April 15, 2018 Report Posted April 15, 2018 Finally got out to test the new brakes. Not your typical mid-April ride, with a light dusting of snow on the trails and temps in the low 30s... The brakes did squeal once on the trail which I'm hoping was an aberration or I'm going to be grumpy. They worked great though, and should improve with a few more rides. 3
