Hey there guys, I finally found a person who has a pair of vision bars to sell me. BUT I don't know if they'll fit my Jetstream II USS. I can't find any ...
Couple other comments.... 1) Sometimes the pump heads fit so darn tight over presta valves you have to pull so hard to remove and this is what causes the...
I never had any luck with Presta valves. Either they bend when the pump is placed on them or the stem starts to leak. On my Trek recumbent it came with Comet...
I should also point out have a high quality frame or mini-pump with you on rides. I have found that when trying to put in high pressure in a road-side tube...
I can't say for sure if the bars will fit, but my guess is they would. But there is another issue, I've been playing around with changing the bars on my JS3....
Well, I decided to go for the "total overkill" solution, and added a TC over/under idler with dual-sided chain keeper in addition to the under/under idler in...
Very nice combo on the idler. Did you have to do any mod's to the front derailler to keep it from hitting the bottom pin on the 30T cog? BTW, where'd ya get...
I'll take a couple for you later today. I'm not sure how long it will take before the post gets through though, my last email took 13 days before it showed up...
What I ended up doing with the front derailleur was to physically lengthen the derailleur cage about 3/8" by cutting the cage on the right-hand-side bottom and...
I'm pretty sure it's because I included a link to the picture on my own web server. That probably triggers some sort of manual review or something to prevent ...

Well, you were all right! I did have a large gash near the valve, unk which item (pump movement or overtightening outer bolt) caused it. I bought two new...

Man, good catch... again! Same reason as last time, aesthetics. Page looks nicer with a bike zooming in towards the center than with one zooming out towards...
So the brakes started squealing a little more than usual, so I decided to do some adjustment. Lo, the left axle was loose by about half a turn. Definitely a...
Not only will it make your brakes squeal, it will cause a lot of tire scrub on that side as well. I had the inside nut spin off completely, and the Primo...
Because the presta valve does not rely on a return spring to close (that's the responsibility of the screw on the end & air pressure) it is MUCH easier to...
... completely, ... A lock washer or nylok is false security. This is meant to be a jamnut. Once the axle is loose, it must be torqued back into the steering...
Tom you can't blame the quality of the threads on the axle. It was common user error and nothing more. The axle is threaded on so tight that it took me and a...
