  • 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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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!

Trailtech computer and a supermoto???

I hate trying to figure out what wheel size to program into the Trailtechs. Are any of you SM guys running one? If so, do you mind sharing what you have programmed in for a 17" wheel?
 
I just picked up a vapor for my 510sm. I just marked tire with chalk and with me on the bike i rolled the front wheel one revolution then measured the distance in mm and there you have it. Or you can just wrap a piece of rope around the front tire while its on a lift and measure the circumference but i think that will be less accurate because all the weight isn't on the tire. There are also mathematical equations to figure it out with the diameter but who wants to do all that...hope this helps
 
With my old bicycle computer on the last bike, I just did the chalk method and it worked perfectly.

Just chalk a straight line on the sidewall out to the edge of the tire. Set a tape at 0 with the line straight down on the ground, roll the wheel until it comes around again and measure that distance. What's nice about this method is that it takes care of tire differences.
