What did you do TO / WITH / FOR your bike today!

Eats cheese. Sells crack.
I'm glad you only fly the planes :p
U’d be amazed at the screwdrivers and sockets I’ve found floating around in the cowls m8 :cool:


The UDH should have a warning on it. If you don't have a dual direction torque wrench, you are going to fuck this up, which probably 95% of us don't.
I didn’t know that u could even buy a wrench that didn’t torque in both directions . The previous 3 I’ve had did both

I euthanased a Cervelo Aspero today...
It had to be done. The poor thing was in a world of pain. Kindest thing to do in the circumstances. It's BB was as slack as a Russian whore and nothing could fix it. Once I had administered the "waggling a pencil in a loo roll" test, there was no other choice.
Thankfully, those nice people at Cervelo have decided that this frame was obviously the runt of the litter and have been gracious enough to send the customer a new one. happy days.

Down on the left!
Normally I'd stay home in weather like this, but it's not every day you get suspension back from Bike Jesus (Cyclinic) plus plus if you don't get heatstroke do you even ride bro.

Cyclinic predictably delivered so bike felt superb.
Looks minty! And pines. Homer dribble..
How do you keep your bikes looking so clean?? Literally 5 minutes after owning anything it looks trashed. I don’t deserve nice things.

What temps are we talking? We had a hot summer, must have been over 40 for the best part of 3 weeks over here, made riding interesting, and very sweaty…

Same. My bike is lucky if it gets a wash, although I don’t tend to ride in the wet.
Also goes for a service covered in dust!

I am quite excited to see how the new Dread performs (hopefully only a week or two to go). Rarely a bad report about the V1 bikes and with the improvements with the V2 Druid things are looking good!

Wow, that's more comprehensive than what they did to my Procaliber. One slice directly in front of the BB and on the shed wall forever more

Because it's a warranty job, Cervelo want pictures of the frame with the BB cut out. A lot of manufacturers do these days.

My shop is amazing, they were supposed to send the frame back to Trek, not even sure they asked permission, just one slice and back in my hands.

We are going away for 2 months, mostly the US, but a side trip to Costa Rica for some MBT riding. We are not taking our bikes so I thought I would give mine a clean up.
Been very dry and dusty till the rain starred about 3 o'clock. Bike is filthy from the dust so getting a complete tear down.
Even sending the fork and shock in for their 20,000 hour regular service.

Heh, so I'd given the bike a clean prior to suspension servicing and that photo was taken halfway up the first climb. Don't worry it looks trashed now.

Was 38 here yesterday, although it felt a lot cooler where I was (down by the coast) until about midday. Still sweated buckets though, final climb might've been more of a walk....
