Riding for Transportation and Adventure. January 1, 2013. Olivia has finally gotten 99% of her gear together for the big New Zealand adventure. She picked up a neat little tool and I wanted to watch her try it for the first time. The Stein Mini Cassette Lockring Remover. Kevlar spoke, a handy item I’ve never tried but could have benefitted from in the past on more than one occasion. Unlike me, the first thing Olivia does is read the directions. After removing the quick release and rear wheel, the spline ...

Fiberfix Emergency Spoke Review | vikapproved
https://vikapproved.wordpress.com/2015/07/11/fiberfix-emergency-spoke-review
Bike rides and gear reviews…. Fiberfix Emergency Spoke Review. About the size of some chapstick…. I’ve been hauling around these Fiberfix kevlar emergency spokes. Of course even better than having an emergency spoke with you on tour is not breaking a spoke in the first place! I never have broken a spoke on a bicycle in combat yet. I do that by:. Having a pro bike mechanic I trust build my wheels. Checking the spoke tension myself before trips. Getting wheels tuned up if needed. Tighten to desired tension...

50 Less Usual but Very Helpful Road Bike Components, Tools, and Accessories. November 21, 2012. The Barnet Bicycle Institute chain tool is dual-purpose: helps size a new chain, and, more frequently, greatly eases the reinstallation of false links whenever one cleans a chain. When used for the latter, the tool keeps both ends of the chain under tension, eliminating the risk of the chain slipping back and needing to be threaded back through the rear derailleur. These Tektros are copies of Campies. They...
