Garmin devices should all work offline, and you can plug them in via USB and upload the .fit files to Strava directly. That's how we had to do it back in the old days before auto-sync all the time!

a foolish pianist posted:That trail is mostly up and down - there aren't really many flat spots. Here's the elevation from my ride from Rockdale Community Park to the Monastery to Panola mountain and back, about 1500 feet of climbing over about 18 miles: I just did monastery to Panola the other day, and yeah it's very hilly. It was nice though. Hardly anyone was out.

Bud Manstrong posted:For road wheels. Santa Cruz, We Are One, and Nobl offer similar policies for mountain rims. Ibis has a seven-year warranty for rims damaged during riding. I went through the process with Reynolds, and it was easy. I wouldn’t buy carbon wheels without a similar policy. ENVE's damage replacement is "no questions asked." Santa Cruz / Reserve only cover riding damage, with an unspecified discount for non-warranty replacements. Nobl and We Are One cover non-riding damage at 50% off.

nm posted:EPO. Yeah I think I'm overthinking it. The easiest would be to go to a GRX 10 speed crank at 46/30 and that's going to need a GRX front derailleur, but its compatible with everything else that I already have. That would put me in at about $200 ish for new parts. Failing that, I can go up to a 11-36 on my cassette with my current rear derailleur, or illegally up to a 11-42 with a GRX rear.

Yep. When they first started digging that up for the new bike path someone mistook the construction access for a new exit.

Thanks, y’all. I’ll wait a bit before I try Arabia/Panola and will try Alpharetta or Silver Comet first. I live on the beltline so I have a decent place to ride but the only time it isn’t super crowded is the middle of the day when it’s too hot and humid to exist. The unpaved part is less crowded but there’s a bridge out near Grant Park that’s messing it up for the next month.

Today through some truck electrical system misadventures I found that single use Gojo wipe packets are a thing. Now that I am finally prepared for fixing a broken chain without getting entirely gunked up I look forward to never breaking a chain ever again.

I'm taking the inner ring off of a triple for devious reasons. If the crank normally requires a 113mm spindle and the inner ring is 10mm in from the middle... what BB spindle length should I try?

Going by chainline the middle ring of a standard road triple should move 4mm in to match a road double inner. 107mm bb would put it 3mm in and assuming jis taper the common next shorter is 103mm which is probably too short.

One of the best things about cycling in china is that when you get tired there is always a granny lady on a electric scooter you can draft behind at 35kph all the way home. (Or a psychotic/methed up delivery tutuk driver at 50kph if you feel frisky).

https://www.diamondback.com/road-bikes/endurance-bikes/century-6c-carbon-d42 Anyone know if something comparable to this is in stock anywhere? Its the right price point for me and I haven't seen much else that's full carbon with ultegra parts and hydraulic disc brakes for a similar price. Looking for my beginner to amateur upgrade basically.

TobinHatesYou posted:ENVE's damage replacement is "no questions asked." Santa Cruz / Reserve only cover riding damage, with an unspecified discount for non-warranty replacements. Nobl and We Are One cover non-riding damage at 50% off. Giant has a nice no question asked while riding policy on any of their carbon bits, including frame fork, rims, bars and stem. There are a few conditions. Item has to be less than 2 years old, model year 2019 or newer, original buyer from an authorized retailer and you need the receipt. I unfortunately put this to the test when I ran into a fixed object at 10mph on my Propel. (I swear it was not there, it must have dropped out of the sky) The process is taking a while because of the Rona, but a new frame and fork are on their way.

spf3million posted:Not that it helps you when they are out of stock but if you're looking at Diamondbacks, the corporate discount brings that bike down to $2,750. I didn't know that this was a thing. I'm sure my smaller company has nothing set up with Diamondback, but what a cool feature for those that do. I picked up a Diamondback Insight STI-8 a few years back on deep clearance from REI and it's been a fun knockaround bike/way to learn the Nexus IGH. I like that bike a lot.

All being said I think reviewers basically said "if you want to use it the very specific way it's designed then it rips"

This is just meant to be informative, but having puppies run on concrete/asphalt a lot before their bones develop can lead to problems later on. Just something to look into if you meant pup in the puppy sense and it's something you plan to do a lot.
