• Hi everyone,

    As you all know, Coffee (Dean) passed away a couple of years ago. I am Dean's ex-wife's husband and happen to have spent my career in tech. Over the years, I occasionally helped Dean with various tech issues.

    When he passed, I worked with his kids to gather the necessary credentials to keep this site running. Since then (and for however long they worked with Coffee), Woodschick and Dirtdame have been maintaining the site and covering the costs. Without their hard work and financial support, CafeHusky would have been lost.

    Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working to migrate the site to a free cloud compute instance so that Woodschick and Dirtdame no longer have to fund it. At the same time, I’ve updated the site to a current version of XenForo (the discussion software it runs on). The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.

    Unfortunately, the new software version doesn’t support importing the old site’s styles, so for now, you’ll see the XenForo default style. This may change over time.

    Coffee didn’t document the work he did on the site, so I’ve been digging through the old setup to understand how everything was running. There may still be things I’ve missed. One known issue is that email functionality is not yet working on the new site, but I hope to resolve this over time.

    Thanks for your patience and support!

Just enjoyin my bike...

Where is this image hosted? Or is it an attachment? Are you posting from a computer, or a mobile device?
 
Why does this forum flip my pictures upside down?!


Not sure how you are posting and hosting them but in Picasa if you edit and rotate and all that you need to save it as a new file or when you post it it posts the original unedited version. Something like that might be going on.

It's because of the phone. You'll need to put it on a PC and rotate it or take your pictures with the phone with the camera up. It posts it how your phone took it even though looking at it in your camera roll right side up. Apps like Facebook automatically fix it but this site doesn't. Hope that all made sense lol
 
Haha I always wondered what exactly I was lookin at there. Avatars on my phones screen are about as large as a pencil eraser
 
iPhone embeds metadata in photos in order to make them appear right side up on the phone no matter how you orient the camera. Once you move the photo to another device that doesn't read the metadata, you get an upside down photo.

I got into the habit of holding the phone so the volume buttons are on the bottom when taking photos. That is the camera's right side up orientation for landscape mode.
 
I get them brand new for 65$
Do you run the really soft GNCC sticky front? If so, how much air pressure? I've got one and it feels like it wants to roll off at 17lbs. Can't ride it... Tried it with tire balls, tried it with a mousse. No difference...
 
With that tall sidewall and a trials compound I run 14 and was recommended to set it at 16 from the guy who is involved in its development. This tire hates low air, may change to a vmr 140 as its has a shorter sidewall and a stiffer carcass.
I also went down two clicks soft and slow on the forks.
This is a love it or hate it tire. I think its to soft for most folks. Them AA pro riders get the job done on them so they do work.
 
I asked a friend on a ride last week whos a AA hare scramble racer what he uses and he's been on an M59 for a while. He even said that my front end was just going away from me erratically so Ive got the M59 on and cant wait to try it out tomorrow.
