มุมมอง 3.4K5 ปีที่แล้ว
DIY Trail Signs Tools required: *Router - You can get one off eBay for as little as £20 *Paint- spray paint is quicker/easier, but you can also hand paint the letters which would probably look better anyway, but be more time consuming *Some wood! Remember, if your trail is not "legal", then probably not a great idea to advertise it to the world. perhaps put the sign a few yards into the trail, ...

    Tried the exact same garden sprayer and also tried a regular pump and pumping like i was superban and the beads did not pop. I had to go to the gas station and use their comoressor. Done. Dont waste your time, just do it right.

    Thanks for this - fixed a 4 year old Whyte dropper today with the aid of your easy to follow video - it’s been slow/sticking and driving me mad for ages despite regular ‘short services’!! Better than new now 👍👏 Just one odd query - when releasing the air I use a shock pump with a pressure release valve - as the air expelled there was an amount of foam and liquid expelled too - it looked clear like water, not oil , no odour - any idea what this might have been ??

    Good video! I have one question, i don’t get how zwift would know in what resistance the trainer is in. Because you could be in the lightest resistance compared to a heavier one with the same cadence, but obviously the wattage would differ.

    • @Scottslookingabout
      @Scottslookingabout 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      zwift determines the resistance when you stop pedaling and the time the wheel free spins to a stop in the setup steps. values like wheel size are faked in setup.

    Any way of shortening the height of dropper.i purchased an XL but I'm around 10mm to high on it ? Another top out bumper ? It's down all the way on the frame.im currently looking for a solution as it will take ages to get a shorter brand X dropper.kind regards great video 👍

    Well I've got 27.5 X 2.4 maxxis and I've tryd and tryd that method and no luck whats so ever. Maybe if the tire was already seated then it could work but didn't for me. So bought the airshot. Not saying it doesn't work for some but certainly didn't for me I'm afraid
