New chain & switched to wax lube on my touring bike which means scrubbing years of black goop off the drive train, the new chain was easy just soak it in a solvent and hang to dry before relubing with Squirt

What have you bought/upgraded today.
Got an Amazon gift card from work, so applied it to some Magura Trail Sports. Plus a bunch of boring crap I’ve been putting off like chain lube and tire sealant.
Remind me. We'll send him a red cap and a Speedo.

Installed a new rear tire on my hardtail - Maxxis Minion SS. The Maxxis Tomahawk that was on there didn't last too long - was OK when new, side knobs' inner edges quickly shredded. (Came with bike, so free, sort of.)
Added more sealant on another bike, which was losing pressure faster than it should. Using Orange Seal in those tires, as I got a couple small bottles free. Old sealant didn't ball up like Stanimals, but was very sticky and gummy. I've used Stan's for awhile, trying some TruckerCo sealant on another bike because it was cheaper than Stan's - no idea what it's doing inside those tires, as I haven't had to pull any yet.
Finally got around to swapping out a ridiculously terrible Kind Shock dropper lever that, came with the bike - one bolt clamps two separate pieces together, clamping both the KS lever assembly and the handlebar.

Can't make it tight enough to not slip without crushing the handlebar, so I've had a piece of inner tube wrapping the bar for grip. I replaced it with a Ztto knockoff of a Wolf Tooth lever. It's smooth and cheap.

New bike is coming with a 38, now im hearing reports of the stanchions at the crown rather than the steerer at the crown creaking. Never fails, always a day or 2 after the payment gets sent the reports start to come out. Hear the zeb is sweet. Less air, less tokens than lyrics

New 27.5 cannondale trigger 3 to replace the old 29 trigger 3. Pretty stoked and red so it’s faster
Sent from my iPhone using TGR ForumsI need to go to Utah.
Utah?
Yeah, Utah. It's wedged in between Wyoming and Nevada. You've seen pictures of it, right?
So after 15 years we finally made it to Utah.....
Thanks BCSAR and POWMOW Ski Patrol for rescues

They won't be here for a few weeks, but I got tired of breaking spokes on the wheels that came on my (used) hardtail and ordered up a new set of hoops. Going to give the Zipp 3Zero Motos a shot, laced up to i9 hubs. Been running Cush Core on some narrow Nobl rims, but with the wider pivoting rim we're going to try to go w/o inserts for a bit. Purple ano hubs and green pinstriped rims, as you do.

I bought a Mezzer Pro today. Cheap and sexy. DTM made me do it.

After reading a whole bunch about it and finding one with the latest changes for $825 I had no reason not to. Fook the Fox36!!
Now I gotta sell the Fox34 for a semi reasonable price and patiently wait for my hand to improve. I almost cried yesterday after failing to set tubeless tires with 1 hand...

Andeh, would love to hear about your Storia experience, especially climbing and pedaling.
Considering a Storia for my Patrol because you can get the custom tune for a linear frame (progressive damper) and the hydraulic bottom-out. Alternatively would be the MRP Hazzard with progressive spring.sproing!
