Does it resemble AI, I assumed it was from the fair hand of kiwimike, presumably reading off bottles he had in his kitchen. I for one wouldn’t have dared to presume otherwise.
Not the easiest retro fit, but raising the bars can do wonders for a more comfortable ride, takes some weight off the hands. When setting up and building the Ultimate Commuter, after a very large amount of deliberation, finally opted for Jones h bars, he recommends going quite high to push more of the weight to the rear. Not fast, and displeasing to my eye large stack height, but for my hands, arms and back worthwhile for long rides. Far more than my low down aggressive early and late 90s XCs.
Maybe a more up angled stem…
Cheers Mike, good to know, nice guesstimations. Would NaCl need to be listed as it might not be classified as an active ingredient?
Back when I used to clean my chains, using a park scrubber and finish lines citrus, I would use a good squirt of fairy into hot water as a cleaner after the expensive stuff. With a good couple of rinses with hot water. Developed this step when finish line changed their formulation at some point to be a little less powerful, the standard rinsing just wasn’t doing enough.
Of course now that all three bikes drivetrains are run on Synergetic the scrubber has ceased to be needed, what with it’s superior lubrication and self cleaning properties…
I’m not big on cleaning the rest of the bike, I have a strange belief that a clean bike is more attractive to the scrotes, but I did get some gtechniq bikewash for getting the filth off the rims before changing the tubeless tyres for the seasons, don’t need much so it will last forever. Did pick up a very effective big dishmatic brush on offer at Waitrose for this task, a dedicated bike specific brush seemed unnecessary.
So far it has only asked me if I’m a robot…
Biggest tyre manufacturer in the world…
Nice.
Park CN-4
I have the Park, perhaps 2 decades, a few years back I found titanium fids ONLINE, especially designed for the expansion of the inner tube bit. They work very well, but with further repeat searches, never found them again. And I have to file the rough ends of the spiral of the brake or the wires on the gear. The pedros looks better.
Can we have line breaks back please.
And comments don’t seem to appear in the commenty bit.
Why is the forum so horrible? No wonder it’s not being used. Either that or cars are not crashing into buildings.
I don’t know if you’ve noticed, but on the homepage a no comment count is an o (oh) rather than a 0 (zero)
Thursdays Irish story, not today’s.
There are certain articles that I read, in this instance the newer of the Irish stories, when it gets real adverty, but then when I go back on the homepage it’s like I’m paying for no ads again.
