    Uber Worldcuppy setup.
    Never used, but intend to forever use Worldcuppy from now on. Thanks.

    I had the same issue. Greasing it helped at first but it got worse. I did research and people have been sanding the top collar bushing down a couple of mm. I did it on mine and it's flawless now 😁👍

    Whenever I have someone ride my bike and explain what a dropper post is, I just tell them to think of it like an office chair.

      THEY ARE EXACTLY THAT, MINUS THE ENTIRE DAMN CHAIR, SO WHY THE FUCK DO THEY COST SO MUCH!!!!

    Good vid, great explainer that's not a how to. I felt your joyful satisfaction in my soul as the last I had that was swapping triples on some old frames of mine.
    And for the record, I heard no audio clipping on my bluetooth headphones.

    Well that was a easy enough fix. As for the sound on the video, I didn't notice any difference, I didn't know there was a issue with the sound in past videos. I come for great bike related content from a fellow east coast Canadian and that is all that matters to me.

    Your happy face from satisfaction sparkle positivity in my afternoon. Also it remembers me about how satisfing is to work on a bike and succes. Thank you! About the audio: I haven't noticed anything annoing, but also nothing before...so for now it is ok😬

    Inspiring. I recently changed the air spring on my Fox fork and I was super nervous to do it. But it ended up not being bad at all.

    This looks like the v1 of the post. The collar is larger and the actuator on the bottom is the centered one. I've had that same issue with the v1 despite pressure and greasing. They fixed it in v2. The comment about sanding down the bushing may be the best long term solution for the v1 full extension issue.

    • @prancisfena
      @prancisfena 4 года назад

      Yep! Sanded mine down and it hasn't acted up at all since. That said, i ordered a repair kit with the newer bushing as well (in case I sand too much off ofnthe bushing 😆)

    Can you do or have you done a sorta timeline overview of your life? Im kinda lost when it comes to the places you move, the jobs you have or dont have and the shed... Maybe include it or add it to the annual fleet callup?

    Put a zip tie in the seal and release the build up. It works for mine. It's suction
