There are also some pretty poor quality holders. If you perform regular lubrication and adjustments, this kind of wear won&#8217;t happen, and the holders and levers won&#8217;t deteriorate as much.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-57950\" src=\"https:\/\/www.decoboco.info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/DSC01818.jpg\" alt=\"DSC01818\" width=\"640\" height=\"426\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.decoboco.info\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2016\/02\/DSC01818.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.decoboco.info\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2016\/02\/DSC01818-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><br \/>\nThere&#8217;s virtually no oil.

I&#8217;ll tighten it so there&#8217;s minimal play and smooth operation. When you can use all the input force effectively and don&#8217;t have to worry about unnecessary things, you can focus on just riding.<br \/>\nThe steering is also creaky, so I&#8217;ve made the minimum adjustments. It&#8217;ll still have a bit of play, but it should feel more responsive.<\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s all.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>After a test ride, I&#8217;ll make a few minor adjustments to areas that felt off.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":57946,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pochipp_cv_data":"","swell_btn_cv_data":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[1924],"tags":[159,1931],"class_list":["post-57952","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-everyday-events","tag-polishing","tag-sr"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.decoboco.info\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/57952","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.decoboco.info\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.decoboco.info\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.decoboco.info\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.decoboco.info\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=57952"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.decoboco.info\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/57952\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.decoboco.info\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/57946"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.decoboco.info\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=57952"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.decoboco.info\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=57952"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.decoboco.info\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=57952"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
