Yeah those are nice. I really want a nomos tangente but the stowa takes care of that for a while. Maybe I'll scoop a Tudor this year but who knows.

I know it took forever for me to elicit a response, but I just moved from being a frickin' roommate to apartment dweller and I've been busy moving and decking up the place.

I've loved Stoli and Belvedere since my first time drinking, I don't really bandwagon much to Goose, Cîroc or whatever rappers [get paid to] rap about. But in my defense though... I've had that bag of Halls from when I got the flu in October, the next nearest 24-hour pharmacy was 7 miles away and I didn't feel like driving far at 1AM so I got the 7-Eleven stuff for quick relief, and tea... I just don't know shit about tea; the only hot drink I have is a double shot latte or black fresh ground Colombian coffee, and maybe some broth and saltine crackers for a bastardized chicken soup .

But now that you say it C5... Why didn't I think of feeding her cough drops? Aftet all, my friend just bragged about his chick doing it with Altoids last week. I feel so stupid since they're minty and all, BUT... There's STILL some left over!!!

Bought this at Harbor Freight today.

I only had 5qt one, and needed a larger one.

Mr Tonka

I bought that Nashbar and it just came it. It seems like my wheel hub is much wider than a road bike, could this be why it won't lock into place?

What's the thickness difference between a road bike hub and a mountain bike hub?

Something is not adjusted right on the trainer. The width should be the same for road or MTn. I have a hybrid downhill/cross country full suspension mtn bike and the width measurement is the same as my road bikes.

There is likely an adjustment you've missed.

Read the instructions or just look at the pictures?

Maybe twist the yellow locking lever to widen the hub jaws? I'm just guessing but maybe it works like the quick release skewers on the wheel, twist to get snug, then push down to lock it in?

That's what I thought, but it seems like it's 1/8'' longer so the compression when I try to lock it in you can see the A arms on the support start to push out from the pressure.

Looking at the quick release stems, they appear to be the same length, but when I start to tighten the new mounting quick release it tightens so much on the hub that there's restriction and unnatural wheel movement, like the brake is slightly engaged. Doesn't happen with the stock quick release stem.

Is the other (non locking) side able to be adjusted? Most of them are adjustable on both sides.
