Madrone Cycles' SRAM Eagle Repair Kits & Prototype Derailleur

This is a reminder to check your pivot pins if you're having issues with Eagle RDs. Two of mine did their best macaroni imitations, and after some straightening with a knipex my shifting improved greatly.

Humidity causing the dirt to be a bit tackier I'm assuming, thus slowing the jumps?

First Look: Hope Releases DH Version of PRO 5 Hub

@vinay: Doing a quick bike check on Hart vs Schurter, Hart's DH is running 165 cranks and a 34t chainring x 24t max in the rear while Schurter's XC bike is 170 cranks and a 38t chainring x 52t max in the rear, so roughly double the freehub torque on Schurter's bike for the same pedal force. I can believe that DH riders have a higher instantaneous force, but I'm a little surprised it would be so much to cause a change in engagement points.

First Look: Hope Releases DH Version of PRO 5 Hub

A) Any idea why they went with simultaneous pawl engagement in this setting, as the maximum torque should still be a good bit lower than what you'd see in a trail bike with a 52t ring? B) Also all the photos are private.

@TwoNGlenn: Every other advanced nation spends less on healthcare than we do for same or better outcomes. If your argument is that the US is specifically poorly suited for a nationalized system to work due to an independence mentality I won't argue, but I'd rather change that aspect than argue that we'll forever overpay for a critical service and underprovide those that can't afford coverage.

@TwoNGlenn: Also does your employer share how much they pay for your healthcare on top of your contribution? I work for a state employer that gets pretty good rates on their healthcare, and my contribution + employer's contribution totals to ~11% of my salary ON TOP of all the healthcare I pay for through state/federal taxes.

The USPS is fully self-funded and will deliver a letter anywhere you want in the US for $0.66.

MicroShift Announces Cage Update for Advent X Derailleur

Counterpoint: I love b-limit screws for making me look like a magician after fixing all of someone's shifting woes by pulling their gap down from a full inch to a nice tight step.
