My wife and I bought our bikes at Target late last year, her a Huffy and me a Schwinn. Recently, shitting has been a total **** on mine. 75% of the time it never switches gears, and I have to go back a few gears and try again. It’s also got a horrible wobble in the rear wheel. Called the local bike shop, but they’re 2 months behind. Not giving up our bikes for that long, so I went to YouTube.

Watched a few videos from Park Tech, and managed to adjust both the rear derailleur and wheel, and how it shifts smooth as butter. The wheel probably needs a bit more work, but it’s still better than before.

I don't work on bikes much but I'd still advise against shitting on it

Good luck with your apparently related shitting problems.

Hmm. That's not what I believe is the intended use for a bike, but I'm not one to judge.

Gotta love the autocorrect. I have no idea why my iPhone thought shifting was the incorrect word in that sentence.

Good thing it’s just an average bike, IMO. :) I miss my old Giant Iguana.

Don't sweat it, boss. I just described a 'police shitting' incident in another thread.

I went to set out my bird feeders this morning (I store them overnight so raccoons can't get at them), and my neighbors are cleaning up sticks and debris in my yard. They bought a fairly large inflatable pool a few weeks ago, and apparently it deflated overnight and washed a bunch of their landscaping chips and other stuff down into my yard. No permanent damage, though. That's unfortunate, because I've read that any sort of pool--even kiddie pools--is hard to find now.

Can confirm, have been looking for pools for a month now.

Rest of the country is dealing with COVID and riots, meanwhile where I’m from we are killing (probably rabid) foxes with hammers.

One of our local Walmarts put up a sign saying that they were not getting any more pools for at least thirty days and to quit asking.

That says more about those other malls than it does about C3.
