• Clean chain today

    From Catrike Ryder@21:1/5 to All on Sun Jun 1 18:57:39 2025
    The new casters I put on my work stand came in really handy today. I
    took the Catrike out of the truck and set it on the stand to change
    out the cadence sensor battery that Garmin Connect had told me was
    low. I wonder if Strava does that.

    After the battery change, I moved it all outside onto the asphalt
    driveway on the new castors to where the few drops of Park Tool
    ChainBrite won't be a problem. Then I washed the chain, cassette, and
    chain rings off with water with the hose and sprayer without taking
    any of it off the bike like I used to have to do.

    Those caster outriggers are greased, not glued to the down tubes, so
    they rotate out for stability and in tight for reduced storage space.
    The bottom frame never touches the ground but is low enough to store
    another Catrike underneath. Can anyone guess how I did that?
