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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

So bought mine in June, got roughly 200 miles on her now. I have yet to need to adjust the chain if I follow what the manual says. Is this normal or am I not beating her hard enough?:busted:
 
sounds ok to me, i thought mine needed adjusting, but once i read the manual, it certainly didnt.

Ive done 400klms, total 1100klms
 
I bought mine in april, and didn't ride it at all most of the summer (rode my 200 in the mountains), so mine only has 2000 or so miles on it. I've adjusted the chain twice. both times it was only about 1/3 or 1/2 turn on the adjusters.

200 miles is less than the first race weekend i had the bike, lol.
 
not to threadjack here, but i'm gonna.

what replacement sprockets are you guys running? the cheapies that the local dealer carries seem to get chewed up in about 6 months. i'm thinking of the ironman next but, not sure. input?

i haven't had to replace mine yet, but i purchased iron man sprockets for when the time comes in a month or so. I had a 50% off coupon (girlfriend won a national hare and hound race), but even at regular price (discount for blue ribbon members) they're not unreasonable if they last a little longer. They appear to me to be thicker. I don't know if that could cause problems in sticky mud, but I don't ride in sticky mud so i don't care.

Things I like about ironman:
good reputation
made in america!!!
supports blue ribbon coalition and racing in the west
 
thanks, i think i'll give them a try after my moab trip. 1 week away. braaaaaaap! woohoo.
