SteveHOST
it's a money grab.
KristenHOST
Like, SRAM and Shimano are getting rich on, well, either $5 or $20.
KristenHOST
I couldn't tell because some people were saying they were more expensive.
KristenHOST
Quick links.
KristenHOST
Yeah.
SteveHOST
And so that's sort of your starting point to think about, right? And then the second time you reuse it, it's much less force, so forth.
SteveHOST
And SRAM, a little less force than those Shimano ones.
SteveHOST
The other way, of course, to put them together is without the chain link, the quick link pliers, is to put it at the top of the drivetrain.
Liam WoodsHOST
Yeah, it's such a, I don't know, chainline.
Liam WoodsHOST
People, like, SRAM does stress this chainline stuff now, which I think semi-matters.
Liam WoodsHOST
but I don't think it matters as much as people are making it out to be.
TydemanHOST
Yeah.
TydemanHOST
I had a pile of broken Shimano's and I had like two sets left at the time.
TydemanHOST
It's time to switch.
Liam WoodsHOST
I went to a SRAM event, and of course they're talking about time pedals, but it carries for every pedal.
Liam WoodsHOST
It's like the most underrated part on your bike.
Mark StillHOST
How does that work out?
Tim JohnsonGUEST
Yeah, so, I mean, we offer everything across Shimano, SRAM, and into Campy.
Tim JohnsonGUEST
You know, obviously the last one is kind of like a fit for that Italian brand.
Tim JohnsonGUEST
you know, die hard.
Tim JohnsonGUEST
But a lot of what we sell is SRAM.
Tim JohnsonGUEST
You know, we offer, you know, great Shimano packages.
Tim JohnsonGUEST
Our product manager is kind of like a character in and of himself.
Jack BurkeHOST
At a different one of those camps...
Jack BurkeHOST
Alex Dowsett was teasing me in a fun way, like it was all just jokes, when he realized I had a Shimano rear brake and a SRAM front brake, and I laughed along with everyone because I wanted them to move on so they wouldn't look closer and noticed there was a rubber band around the front brake to make it work since the return spring had broken, and when I got the bike it was a used one from the team I could borrow and it came with that rubber band on it already, like Jasper had this bike the year before and so he jerry-rigged the rubber band.
Jack BurkeHOST
Dude, that's how hard it is and it's like that for so many guys.
Jack BurkeHOST
I'm not unique and there's not that many spots available.
Zach EdwardsGUEST
Those are important to leave extended.
Zach EdwardsGUEST
But the SRAM manual says nothing about that for the Axis one.
Zach EdwardsGUEST
Yeah.
Dave RomeHOST
Yeah.
Jack DuncanGUEST
Yeah.
Zach EdwardsGUEST
So there's like
Jack DuncanGUEST
for those listening, Zach just put up a little SRAM connector piece.
Jack DuncanGUEST
It's like it has threads on either side that are opposite threaded so that you can like connect two hoses.
Rémy MétaillerGUEST
So myself and Matt Beer, that now works at Pinkbike, put together all those bikes in like, I don't know, it was like a month's job or something like that.
Rémy MétaillerGUEST
They are like, you know, sponsor like SRAM was providing suspension, transmission, Maxis the tires, Easton the wheels.
Rémy MétaillerGUEST
And we are like building those bikes in Vancouver just before season started.
Davi BirksHOST
Dude, did you feel bad? Did you like, you were sending the bikes off to the slaughter? You know what I mean? That's how it felt, you know? When people drive those trucks with all the pigs in the back and they're going to the slaughterhouse, that was basically you.
JoshyGUEST
Yep.
JoshyGUEST
So I just went SRAM Force Explorer.
JoshyGUEST
That's just what everyone does.
JoshyGUEST
Hey, it feels good.
speaker_0HOST
Low battery alerts now appear on the post-ride screen.
speaker_0HOST
Crucially, SRAM fixed a crash that happened when heat maps were only partially downloaded and you lost internet.
speaker_0HOST
That's exactly the sort of bug that bites when you're halfway up a hill with no signal.
speaker_0HOST
What it signals.
DaneHOST
This came up in the shop.
DaneHOST
We got a new SRAM field rep. Yep.
DaneHOST
He's awesome, Dave.
DaneHOST
And shout out to Dave.
DaneHOST
Most of the research that I did back then that said that it's okay to use it for the way that we're using it was pretty consistent with continuing.
JoshHOST
Well, what the hell is it? What is hydrogen embrittlement? What's
DaneHOST
happening and what are they claiming it causes? So in metal, in SRAM's case, they're more worried about their chains, so it's in steel.
DaneHOST
When you create steel, When you introduce hydrogen into the process of either creating it or installing it or maintaining it, the hydrogen molecules can actually move into the steel and create – like I'm going to dumb this way down because I don't want to get into the motor – you know, drive unit.
Bradford GreenHOST
I ran two by
Austin WhittingtonGUEST
SRAM Red, 50, 37 up front, then 10, 36 in the back.
Austin WhittingtonGUEST
There were some grindy parts toward the end when it was raining, and I just didn't want to go hard anymore.
Austin WhittingtonGUEST
But I never had to walk.
