this is one reason i am mulling over selling my vehicle. too many license plate readers in my area. my recent insurance company also wanted me to install a beacon in the vehicle and allow their app to always allow access to my location, in exchange for a discounted rate. GTFOH. it was quite pleasing to smash that beacon with a hammer though.

nah, not odd at all! it was one of the first things i noticed before i got down to the hardware specs, so it got my attention.

tldr; Cubans, Haitians, Nicaraguans, and Venezuelans who were previously temporarily shielded from deportation will be emailed notices telling them to go.

can confirm, this is for a chain guard. if you are going to remove a crankset/arms, it is best to use a proper crankset removal tool. the last thing you want is to fuck up your crank arm or bottom bracket and have a malfunction during a critical moment aka any moment you are on a bicycle. i had a friend’s crank arm strip as he was riding into a 4-way intersection. scary times.

anyway, never hurts to invest in proper tools for your bicycle. if that’s not viable, take it to a local bike shop & ask for help. they might do it for cheap or even for free, since it is causing a safety issue, or you can just get a new chain guard.
