cia kalbama apie laisva rato sukimasi, o ne kazka kita.
kiek kartu apsisuka jusu moco ratas, kai ji pasukate ranka (su salyga, kad mocas kaba ore)?
daugiausiai apsisukusiam +1
kai kurie sukasi iki 8 kartu. bet ten lab rankela pridta. gal net keramikiniai guoliai.
siap tai gal 2.

kaip sumazinti brake draga?
va kaip:

(1) Get the bike up in the air on a front & rear stand. Front stand must lift from under the bottom clamp since the fork legs must be relaxed. The fork legs are the key to this whole thing ya see.
(2)Loosen up all the pinch bolts
(3)tighten the piss out of the fromt axle to make sure that the bearings are seated in hub all the way. Then immedaitely loosen up re torque to spec (?).
(4) Take your first spin baby. Got 6? No, OK, just seeing if you got lucky. If not read on, if so go to step 7.
(5)Drop bike to ground & compress the forks 10 or so times to get everything all good and settled & put er back up on stands. Got 6?, go to step 7.
(6)Now the fun part, DO NOT BE IN A HURRY, WERE WORKIN IN HALF MILLIMETERS HERE. Your fine tuning the distance between the bottom of the fork legs by putting pressure on the legs and tightening only the inner left(from on bike perspective)pinch bolt just enough to maintain the pressure on the legs. I can not emphasize how small an amount of bolt tightening and fork pressure I am talking about here. Start with small changes and check the spin. Try pressure pushing out and then in, just a little & then go to more pressure if necessary. Work your way around and spin regularly. Sort of like tire balancing, you know when your getting close. LDH's Ohlins' needed to be spread apart, my stockers needed to be pushed together. Either way this will work. There is a sweet spot in there somewhere that will yeild 5-6 spins.
(7) Got em?, good.. Now the most delicate part. Tighten the pinch bolts a half turn or so each with a spin every time you cycle through the bolts to be sure you have not shifted out of your sweet spot. If you shift out of the sweet try tightening in a different order or one side at a time untill you reach spec torque (?). DO not start all over, just loosen up to the point that you get your 6 spins back and try some other tightening pattern, maybe only do 1/8 turn. Its an art, not a science ya see.
(8) Phew, get a beer, relax. You just did the rc equivelant of sighting the abonimable snowman. He's out there & I saw him in my garage tonight.
