Custom Ballistic Nylon chaps question

Can you let us know how well it works for you?

Update:

I got back from the 19 day 8786 mile trip from Az. to Ak. last Thursday night. I wore the chaps from the time I left the house till I returned while riding. Caught 7 days of rain in the 19 gone, 3 of those heavy all day while we covered about 400 miles a day.

The chaps never let me down and kept me dry, kept the road grime off my pants. I did don the lower rain pants on several occasions to keep my butt from getting wet. What I discovered was that in continuous light rain, my butt didn't need the lower rain pants. When it was heavy all day I did need them. They slipped on and off over the zippered chaps without too much effort, sometimes I'd just remove the boots to get them off but they'd slide right on over the boots easily enough.

So, the Colorado Chaps worked as expected. Kept the road grime and mud off my pants, kept me dry and on the colder mornings kept my legs pretty warm and comfortable as well. The seam seal worked on the stitching and I thank those who recommended that procedure previously.

Good to hear they worked well for you.

Always nice to hear how things worked out
Any pictures? trip not chaps

For some reason I've never been able to upload pics here, it says the uploads failed. Plenty of pics of the trip though.

We have had some reports of upload failure lately. Kurt and I have been checking and it seems, at this point, a sizing issue. 155KB seems to be the magic size number.
Thanks.

Test, this picture is 550KB




This picture is 1.96MB


I use the the Insert Image icon that looks like a tree in a square border.

I usually need to reduce the file size of cell phone pictures to get them to load.
Large files tend to flip like my bottom picture.

Raise the size limit like all the other forums would be the solution IMO. I've never had issues with posting pics on any of a dozen other forums in over a decade but here.

Just tried the insert image icon and they are still failing. Oh well,

I have to reduce size to about 700 KB to get anything to load from a computer.

I just checked and the pics I've tried to put up are in the 44-56kb area. Still wouldn't take them. I don't think it's the sizing issue I'm having.

That size should load fine.

One would think so, and I've never had problems managing attachments [ pics ] on any number of a dozen sites elsewhere so it's not like I don't know how to attach them.

Pictures

I have been having trouble loading pictures also, I have iPhone 7 go to settings ,camera and change format to most compatible, turn off the live button when you take picture and sometimes go to square photo setting, than remember iPhones seem to revert back to the settings they want a lot.
Other possible reason for problems not caused by apple, the forum, my stupidity.
1: sunspots and or solar flares
2: government conspiracy, I have reposted some unflattering pictures of fearless leader.
3: the higher deity is female and I have somehow annoyed her.
4: some low budget remake of Groundhog Day and we are just stuck until some unreachable star falls in love with us.
6: they are sabotaging us to force us to use the other social media stuff!

Reply to original post I have two pairs of aerostich darian pants one black one pair yellow. Pants waterproof, and in Goldilocks speak not too hot in summer and not too cool in winter, they be just right.

LMAO,

I've got a K bike in the marketplace and it wouldn't take the pictures there either.

And several are from arsehats who took the topic off post that had to be addressed.

Where you from on the Cape? Used to work for the AG's criminal division in that state.

I load all of my pics from my SmugMug account across multiple forums etc. On this site I can only use the “small” size links.
