Adam, I meant to add that prices on digital micrometers seem to have gone down over time. I replaced my old "analog" PITA micrometer on Amazon for twenty-five bucks. I would not go for the cheapest though. I opted for one with an auto "OFF" setting so you won't burn the battery out when you

Adam, Just saying . If you like the paint job on your bike, be mindful when applying muscle to the BB remover tool. You'll be using a heavy-ish adjustable wrench. So, adjust it so it's snug. It's pretty easy to have that tool come out and the wrench can chip the vulnerable BB shell paint

I've got some exciting adventures on the horizon that would be best suited to having a slightly different bike in my stable, so I've decided to part ways (amicably) with my first-gen (2016) 59cm Clem Smith Jr, in the no-longer-available "H-type." This has been a great bike that I've really
