Jim’s Tech Talk By Jim Langley Let’s start with why last week’s Tech Talk was for beginners traveling with bikes with disc brakes (here’s that article) and then we’ll share an additional tip. It seems important to explain the “why,” because there were multiple anti disc-brake comments to last week’s article. It’s completely understandable why disc brakes – especially hydraulic discs aren’t popular with roadies – and several of you elegantly made the case in your remarks – thank you. But there’s an excellent reason for us (“us” as in we editors of RBR and you readers who ride disc brake road bikes) to provide help with disc brakes anyway. That reason is because many (maybe most) new road riders may not have a choice of purchasing a rim brake road bike when they visit their local shops. Since most of the major bike brands are only offering bikes with discs. If these buyers are brand new to cycling, they might never even realize that there’s anything out there except disc brakes. So the chances are high that a new road rider’s new bike will be one with hydraulic disc brakes. Part of our mission at RoadBikeRider is to help new cyclists get the most out of road riding. And as components on road bikes have changed, we’ve always helped with the new gear too like hydraulic disc brakes. If we didn’t we’d be ignoring issues a lot of roadies are and will be experiencing. This wasn’t included in last week’s tips because with a little luck, you might not experience it. But luck goes both ways and this tip will help if yours goes badly. The problem you can run into removing and reinstalling wheels when traveling with bikes that have hydraulic disc brakes is rubbing. What happens usually is that something changes slightly and the rotor starts rubbing against a brake pad when the wheel spins. If you lift and hold up the front or rear wheel and spin it and it stops spinning abruptly, the rotor is probably rubbing. You might hear the rotor make a little brushing sound as it rubs against the rotor when it’s spinning. Or it can make a little squeaking noise if you move the bike slightly like when leaning it against a wall, etc. This rubbing can be frustrating if you notice it. If it’s barely noticeable, you probably won’t feel it when you’re riding, but you probably want to fix it just to ensure you aren’t wasting energy riding. And if it’s making noise, that can drive you crazy. There are 2 ways to fix it. With both, the idea is to center the disc brake caliper over the rotor. The calipers are the parts attached to the fork in front and frame on the rear. The rotors are the parts attached to the center of the wheel. Applying the brake levers causes the brake pads inside the calipers to close on the rotors, which slows and stops the bike. The following instructions assume that the rotors are straight, not bent. To tell, spin the wheel with the rubbing rotor and focus on its edge. It should spin true without any lateral wobbles. If it’s bent, the following adjustments won’t fix your rubbing issue. Instead you need to fix the bent rotor or replace it with a new one. On newer bikes this procedure usually stops rubbing disc brakes. And it’s worth trying even on older or well-used bikes. There are only 2 steps. First, find and loosen the 2 bolts that attach the calipers to the frame or fork. Just loosen them, do not remove them. When they’re the right looseness you will be able to hold and wiggle the caliper a bit, it won’t be held tightly in place by the bolts to the frame. In the photos I placed 2 multi tools on the 2 bolts I loosen on my bike to give an idea where yours will be. Note that older hydraulic disc brakes may have more complicated setups with spacers and shims on the bolts and even other bolts. So look carefully to be sure you’re working on the right bolts before loosening anything. If you’re not sure, I recommend asking a shop to do it for you the first time and ask them to show you which bolts to turn. It will be worth whatever small fee they charge you. Once the bolts are loose the second step is to squeeze and hold on the lever of whichever brake was rubbing. Don’t let go. If you can’t hold the brake lever on and reach the caliper that you just loosened, then use a Velcro strap or a toe strap (remember those?) or whatever you have to keep the lever squeezed – even a strong elastic band can work. And with the lever squeezed like this, retighten the disc brake caliper bolts. The recommended torque is about 6-8 Newton meters, which is a bit less than how tight you get thru axles, which we talked about last week. When tightening these bolts, tighten a bolt gradually, then do the same to the other bolt. Then add a little more tightness on one bolt and then the other. Repeat until both bolts are fully tightened. Doing it this way will prevent rocking the brake out of position. Now, when you let go of the brake lever or release the strap, there’s an excellent chance that what you just did will have recentered the brake and stopped the rubbing. If the first procedure (#1 above) did not stop the rubbing, the rubbing may be due to another issue with the brake, such as uneven pad wear or a caliper out of alignment. On some bikes the problem might be the mounts on the frame poorly aligned from the factory. To fix the rubbing, again you loosen the correct two bolts holding the caliper on the frame, but this time, you don’t want to loosen them too much. You actually want a little tension on the bolts to hold the caliper from moving on its own. Because you’re going to move it into place with your hand or by gently tapping with a rubber mallet or similar. So loosen them little by little until the caliper isn’t fully tight. Next hold a piece of white paper beneath the caliper and look down through the caliper to spot where the rotor rubs against the brake pad. Use a flashlight if it’s difficult to see and move the paper around and change your position or the bike’s position until you can see through the brake caliper, in between the brake pads. Once you’ve spotted the rubbing area, tap on the caliper in such a way to create clearance and stop the rubbing. Usually you will tap near one bolt or the other to rock the caliper in either direction. It will take a little experimentation and practice to learn how to get it where it needs to go, but you can do it if you keep trying. Once you have created clearance where it was rubbing and feel good that it’s fixed, you can retighten the 2 bolts. But, do this gradually because if you just torque them fully, the caliper could move back to where it was before since it’s been there for awhile already. So, to tighten it gradually, tighten each bolt a ¼ turn or so at a time, going back and forth until both bolts are tight again to 6-8 Nm. Then, give the wheel a spin and apply the brake and see if the adjustment stuck and the rubbing is gone. Congrats if so. If not, then repeat the procedure a second time. Sometimes it might take a few tries to get it just right and you’ll get better at it each time you do it. That’s a lot of words that I hope helps you fix your rubbing disc brakes. I realize it’s a lot and especially if you’re new to your bike and/or working on it. So, I searched and found a great video showing these steps by my friends at Park Tool. Here it is: In my opinion, manufacturers of hydraulic disc brakes should address the rubbing issue and invent an easy built-in adjustment to recenter a caliper and stop the rubbing when it occurs. To me, it’s crazy to have to break out wrenches and loosen, reset the caliper and retighten the bolts every time a brake rubs, especially since it’s such a common issue. How long will it be before you strip the threads on a bolt? It seems like there ought to be a way to provide a mechanical centering screw on calipers sort of like the limit screws on derailleurs only they would push the caliper just so to recenter it. Maybe it could be turned by hand too so no tools would be needed, wouldn’t that be a great improvement? How about it disc brake makers? Jim Langley is RBR’s Technical Editor.

Pi Network stirred crypto news after a community leader claimed Coinbase could soon list Pi Coin. The news landed as Pioneers, Pi’s miners, finally got what they’ve been chasing for years: a Linux Node rollout, plus ongoing protocol upgrades. Nodes are the backbone of any chain, and Pi’s mainnet launch in February moved over 12 million users across. Yet 55 million still mine on phones, bottlenecked by a KYC process many call punishing. Still, PI trades near record lows, leaving traders divided: Discount entry or dead weight? This hesitation has some looking beyond Pi, and one of the top crypto presales catching that flow is DeepSnitch AI. DeepSnitch AI promises something retail rarely gets: advance notice when whales, rugs, or manipulations are unfolding. For a market obsessed with early entry, DeepSnitch pitches exactly what traders crave: a fighting chance before the big money moves. Pi’s struggles aren’t just about KYC delays or Coinbase rumors, they’re about who really wins when news breaks. Take the mystery whale that scooped up 331 million Pi Coins weeks before the upgrade was announced. By the time everyone heard about it, the trade was done, while retail refreshes feeds and prays for scraps. The problem isn’t effort, because traders grind every day. The problem is the flood: too much data, too many false signals. DeepSnitch AI is building five AI agents: modular, real-time, and built by veterans who’ve tracked on-chain activity for years. They flag whale wallets, decode suspicious flows, and deliver alerts. As adoption grows, the agents become infrastructure for anyone holding long-term. Each new user means more activity on the rails, more token demand, and stronger price floors. That’s why early backers whisper about 100x potential: utility drives adoption, adoption drives value. Meanwhile, DeepSnitch presale is still in Stage 1 at $0.01602, already up from $0.01571, and $169k raised fast. Price ticks higher as demand accelerates, so first buyers lock the best slots.
Pi Coin’s upgrade couldn’t break its slump. Price hovers around $0.3500, barely off the all-time low of $0.3312. A short-lived bounce to $0.36 gave bulls some hope, but supply pressure looms large. September brings a massive unlock of 159.5 million PI tokens released into circulation. Daily drips of fresh supply hang over the market like a ceiling, threatening to drown any weak rally. Still, Pi isn’t without fuel. Nordic exchange Valour just listed eight new ETPs, and Pi made the lineup. This opens access to investors who’d never mine or buy directly. On top of that, a Pi Hackathon winner teased an incoming Coinbase listing. No confirmation from Coinbase, and skeptics doubt Pi clears their compliance screen, but the rumor alone stirred activity. Technicals show the battle line at $0.36. A clean break could send PI toward $0.40+, fueled by momentum traders hunting cheap volatility. Failure keeps it pinned under supply, with risk back toward $0.31. For Pi, Coinbase chatter keeps hope alive while September’s unlock weighs the other side of the scale. Traders stay split, and this uncertainty leaves space for other altcoins. The loudest one right now is DeepSnitch AI, rapidly climbing into the top crypto presales list this September. Five AI snitches track flows, watch whales, and flag the trades retail normally finds too late. That’s why early buyers are rushing in: more than $169k raised at $0.01602 in Stage 1, price adjusting upward as demand builds. Adoption feeds demand, demand lifts price, and in this cycle, upside multiplies fast. Visit the official DeepSnitch AI website to learn more.

Cardano and Remittix are fast becoming standout names in the crypto market, each offering distinct paths to potential wealth creation. Cardano (ADA) is drawing investor interest with its expanding DeFi ecosystem and price momentum, while Remittix (RTX) is redefining payments through instant crypto-to-fiat transfers. With ADA’s proven history and RTX’s disruptive PayFi model, both assets could deliver monumental gains for investors heading into 2026. Cardano (ADA) is gaining more and more momentum and approaching a breakout that can potentially define 2026. After months of consolidation, the ADA Price today hovers around $0.905, pressing against resistance near $0.97. A decisive push above this level could open the door to $1.03 and potentially $1.15, marking a return to strength that has been absent for much of the year. The Cardano Price Prediction charts highlight strong base support between $0.80 and $0.82, where buyers have consistently defended ADA’s range. Since bouncing from lows near $0.72 in June, ADA has shown resilience by forming higher lows. This price action suggests that demand is quietly accumulating. Analysts believe that if the ADA Price clears $0.97, it could trigger a sustained rally toward $1.20 and beyond. Renewed optimism is also tied to ADA’s growing DeFi ecosystem and staking strength, which continue to attract institutional and retail interest. As Cardano News around development milestones gains traction, the token is once again emerging as one of the most closely watched assets in the market. For investors searching for monumental gains, ADA News points to a bullish setup. Alongside Remittix, Cardano is positioning itself as a leading contender for explosive returns in 2026. Remittix (RTX) is quickly emerging as one of the most exciting projects in the PayFi sector, with analysts predicting it could rival the long-term potential of established assets like Cardano. Unlike many tokens, Remittix solves a tangible problem by enabling direct crypto-to-fiat payments into global bank accounts, bypassing the inefficiencies of traditional transfers. With $26.2 million already raised, its momentum is undeniable. These milestones show why investors are eager to accumulate RTX before its wider rollout. As Cardano (ADA) continues to strengthen its staking ecosystem and push toward $1.20, Remittix’s practical utility gives it a unique edge in driving mainstream adoption. With its wallet now in beta testing and a referral program rewarding users 15% in USDT, RTX offers a rare mix of usability and strong tokenomics, setting the stage for monumental gains by 2026.

Ethereum (ETH) is showing renewed bullish momentum as a rare three-year cup and handle breakout aligns with record institutional treasury accumulation, hinting at a potential surge toward $10,000. Trading around $4,478, Ethereum has demonstrated resilience despite broader market volatility. Recent price stability and strong on-chain activity suggest investors are increasingly confident in ETH’s long-term potential. Analysts note that institutional inflows and staking adoption are driving both liquidity and confidence, positioning Ethereum for a significant upward move if momentum continues. Ethereum (ETH) is trading at $4,478.20 USD, as it consolidates within the $4,450–$4,500 range. Support levels are observed around $4,450–$4,520, with resistance near $4,638–$4,665. Analysts note that a breakout above $4,955 could signal a bullish trend, potentially driving ETH toward $5,500 in the near term. Ethereum (ETH) was trading at around $4,478, up 0.24% in the last 24 hours at press time. Source: Ethereum Price via Brave New Coin Traders note that Ethereum’s price action remains closely tied to Bitcoin but is beginning to carve out independent strength. While Bitcoin dominates headlines with institutional adoption, Ethereum’s expanding ecosystem of decentralized finance (DeFi), stablecoins, and staking is fueling sustained demand. Market watchers believe this divergence could accelerate if Ethereum breaks key resistance levels, setting the stage for a possible multi-month rally. Market watchers are pointing to a rare chart setup now unfolding. “The Cup & Handle that makes millionaires. ETH spent 3 years forming this setup. Now the breakout is in motion. Measured target points to $10K+… This isn’t hopium. It’s geometry,” crypto trader Merlijn The Trader posted on X. Ethereum’s 3-year cup & handle breakout is in motion, signaling a potential surge toward $10K as patience and technical geometry align. Source: @MerlijnTrader via X This pattern, often seen as a reliable bullish indicator, comes as Ethereum completes a multi-year consolidation phase dating back to its 2021 all-time high. A study published in the Journal of Finance (2000) found that cup and handle formations deliver upside price targets nearly 65% of the time when accompanied by strong trading volume. If momentum sustains, Ethereum could be on the cusp of one of its most significant rallies since the 2020–2021 bull run. Another bullish driver is the rapid growth of Ethereum treasury holdings, which have now surpassed $18 billion. Institutional buyers, corporate treasuries, and funds are increasingly adding ETH to their reserves, echoing the Bitcoin treasury strategy popularized by MicroStrategy. Unlike BTC, Ethereum offers staking yields and powers a wide range of on-chain utilities, making it attractive for diversified treasury management.
