I ran kookas on a 110 un54. Worked fine till the crank broke for other reasons. I’d just tighten that thing down and go for it.

It turns out that those cutout spider arms were not sturdy enough for sweet fixie applications.
Sooo
Do I put the boring suigino track cranks back on the stumpy or do I try to ride the pretty eBay cranks that are definitely going to break when I stand on them?

I would not run them singlespeed based on the sample size of Rusty.
You do you and all that, but I wouldn’t mess with cranks that might break.

You made the correct decision.
They’ll break when they break at that’s fine.
I also snapped an old Cook bros crank at the pedal threads.
That was fine too.
Old cranks are made to be ridden until they break and then hung on a wall atmo.
Wish I still had those green Kookas but they got lost in a move.

What’s the best gps computer with maps and turn by turn that’s under $350? Garmin or wahoo?
Having used the Dash and the Bolt, I would recommend either. The Dash is a little cheaper, especially with the 20% off sale going right now.
As far as usage goes, they’re both primarily for training. However, the mapping on them is definitely better than Garmin and integrate well with RideWithGPS and Strava. Stages made some real headway this year with their app, which makes them on par with Wahoo in my opinion.

Karoo is V good. I like the Dash, but it’s strengths are more on the display of metrics for training.

Do any of these have issues working and charging?
Like, charging off a Luxos/battery while working
Dash can charge while riding. No on device navigation, but the app can generate a route by inputting an address and be sent to the device during a ride. Just no auto rerouting or anything like that.
Hopefully maps eventually get an update, but the OSM base is pretty good, better than what I’ve gotten on garmin units in the past.

Auto rerouting is overrated IMO. It’s the one thing I really don’t like about the Karoo. Maybe there’s a way to change it that I’m just too lazy to figure out, but if I get off track the only re-route I want is back to where I made the wrong turn. Most rerouting seems biased towards more heavily traveled routes and seems to want to take me completely off any mapped off-road stuff.

Can I use a dynasys10 dangler with a dynasys11 clicker, cassette, and chain? Or the other way around? Or both?!?!
