Bike oopses
Apr. 6th, 2005 08:08 amThings I screwed up yesterday:
(1) My bike computer has two buttons, one on the front and one on the back. If you press them both together, the whole thing resets, and it loses all of its saved state...including the odometer reading. You can set it from the hard-reset state. I know I passed 500 in Nashua last August. If since then I came back from Nashua to Lowell, went from Rockport to Salem, and took two local 30-mile trips, that leaves me around 610. Which is what I set the odometer to.
(2) You use the bolt on the bottom of the shifter to take the shifter assembly apart. None of the screws seem to actually do anything. But it seems like you need to put tension on the rotating part to install it. Maybe that's not right. But right now it's in a state where the rear shifter is in its highest gear, and I can shift down but it doesn't "stick"; I pop right back up to the top gear when I let go of the lever. More frobbing is in order.
