one general tip for when the exact hub cone is not readily available. discovered that the curvature of the bearing surface on the shimano 600 was a pretty good "skeleton key" for many applications. it would sometimes require a small change in ball size to make everything come out correctly.

Going riding soon. Baklava weather.
BTW, been up since 4 AM, CT. Trying to recoup my 7 hours of time zone changes. Yesterday was 3 AM so I guess 4 AM is an improvement.

For the record, nothing could be further from the truth. Instant ramen noodles lack many important nutrients, like protein, fiber, vitamins A, B-12 & C, calcium, magnesium, potassium, antioxidants and phytochemicals.

It will be interesting to see how Strava shows my "fitness" after today's outdoor sojourn.

And those days when the temperature didn't seem like a temperature, just a random single digit number off to the right of the time...

My wife's gravel bike (aka my future gravel bike) has through axles. What do I need to do to make the levers point the right way? Currently the front one points downward when fully tightened and I can't seem to align it in any other way.
