Got some tall bars for it. Definitely better for cruising, haven’t decided if they’re better for bmx.
Pulled the messed-up Terraspeed from the front wheel and installed a new one. I’ve never had to use a compressor on the last two sets of Terraspeeds but had to this time. If I had realized I was going to replace both tires, I would just have gone with the Specialized Pathfinders they had in stock.
WTH: PB Blaster earned its name tonight. The rear dangler barrel adjuster was seized so I pulled the cable and shot some PB Blaster in there so I could unthread everything and clean it up. Apparently there wasn’t much space for the PB to go, so it reflected back at me, coating my glasses and leaving a nice trail across the shop mats.
Update on the coaster cog saga… it turns out it was a self inflicted wound. The EBB had moved laterally towards the NDS, which of course moved the chain towards the tire.
The chainline is still terrible with a flat cog though so I’ll run the offset when it shows up. But at least I don’t have chain rub now.
