I'll have to check later. But I'm not remembering if it says Suntour Winner Pro on the FW. It would be 7 speed for this one. The SB link has dimensions for the Ultra and the MicroDrive 7 speed FW. I don't know where the Winner Pro fits. But it's worth a look. Thanks. I'm second guessing chain...

Must be my procedure. I can either get it to skip 2nd to largest cog or 2nd to smallest. Either way I get consistent shifts through the middle. If I tune out of either end I get shifting issues in the middle.

Other than new cables and chain I believe it’s all original parts. I think it’s me. I seem to have it indexed fine on the 3 smallest cogs. But the next 2 are noisy while riding. Moving the shifter a tiny bit while pedaling I get the solid click, and sometimes it’ll skip a gear.

Went for a longer New Years Day ride on BLII. Enough to row through the gears. Needs a bit of tuning still. But wow what a ride! Very responsive. And dare I say wanting to launch better than my CAAD3! It just wants to get up to speed quick. Down tube shifting not quite second nature yet...

I began to wonder myself. When sizing I did the large chain ring to large cog, plus two pins. But removing/reinstalling the rear wheel I felt the chain might be better longer. I tend to have my initial cable tension too tight. Being aware of that I paid extra attention to that detail with this...

Good enough for a ride! BL II did fine. The indexed shifting was difficult for me to tune.

No I did not. Sadly. I'm out of space. I did receive a message from the seller the other day. He's wanting to make a deal......

Frank Zappa?

I've got that on my "watchlist". Nice enough and right sized enough. But yes, too expensive.

Which fork would the tool not fit? @black lightning 1987 I haven’t had the chance to try it on my 08 F3 yet.

I had no idea either. I’ve got a friend that loves his recumbent (brand unknown). He keeps offering me the chance to go for a pedal.

Looks ok for the price. Definitely an ST model.

Alodine and prime @JohnnyD Your opinion? Would that work if a layer of corrosion was sanded then treated that way.

Picture with corrosion/AL oxide powder right after picking off paint. Clearcoat isn’t looking healthy in that area either.

I pushed on the corroded down tube with a pointed awl. With a fair amount of pressure and it did not poke through. So I think the frame is ok.

Fork paint looks “off” like a repaint. Or it’s just a degradation of the clear coat.

Kind of bought a stinker. Found some bubbling paint while reassembling. It wasn’t disclosed by the seller. But I went back and looked at the photos and zooommed. Knowing where to look I can see the spots. I picked away the bubbled paint with my fingernail near the DT bottle mount boss. The...

I’ll make you a deal.

Took the ST400 for a spin around the neighborhood. Brakes need fine tuning. Shifts fine. Front wheel needs some truing and the headset is a tad loose. I suspect the seller loosened it up for shipping. I did find the jam nut loose, tightened it, but didn’t check to see if all was well. Some flaws...

Unboxed and reassembled. I will have to learn how to adjust this style of brake system. I haven’t any clue. The front has a nice quick release lever. The rear doesn’t, so I had to loosen the pinch bolt to open up the caliper to install the rear wheel. Kind of figured out how to get tension back...
