Another thing to consider, I’ve seen people with bottles on the underside of the down tube, but not sure off the top of my head how they mount them.
If you can do that then you can put everything on that tube. MTBs have a lot of vertical clearance, but it is for missing rocks and roots etc. But I’ve seen stuff mounted there anyway
Just since you mentioned it, you should NOT consider drilling extra mounting points. Definitely work with what you have!
Zero difference. These men are cowards, Donnie.
I use a foam degreaser to get the factory stuff off and then yeah, just normal chain lube, wipe off the excess afterwards just like when you clean your chain
Sorry, brain problem, tire seater is what I meant
Something like this: https://www.sjscycles.co.uk/tools/koolstop-tyre-mate/?geoc=US
I have a plastic one (the park tool version is metal which seems overkill).
It lets you grab the last bit of bead and gives you leverage to pull it over the rim without scratching everything up
If it was my bike I’d be riding that to see. It looks fine to me, if it didn’t feel weird after a test ride I’d be leaving it as is.
If the tyre is super tight, you can leave it out in the sun for a while to soften it up a little, and I’d suggest getting a tyre boot to help with that final bit of bead. They’re super cheap and removes some misery if you find a particularly tight wheel rim vs bead combo
From a purely grammatical perspective, yes, utilized would be a little bit less pejorative than used. But I still think Roger Taylor would object hehe
I don’t think Roger Taylor would agree with you that he has been “used” by Queen. He has written some of their biggest songs and is a great singer too! I have so much respect for Queen even if I don’t like all their music, just 4 guys banging out classics all day long, no backing tracks or hidden young people filling out the sound. Late 80s stadium Queen is just so powerful - strongly recommend watching their live in Montreal concert film, it’s so impressive.
I agree the Beatles are overrated though, I’ve never understood the sheer number of people even today who think they’re peak. They’ve got some good tunes but yeah… snooze!
Has one of the most terrifying episodes of a mainstream television show in it. Iykyk
I wouldn’t say this is perfect but it’s very unique with some meaty performances and it does finish cleanly
Blew my giro
On this erotic biro
I’m in love with the beautiful lady
If you turn it around
Her knickers fall down
It’s the greatest thing since
Joseph met Mary!
Looks beautiful
It’s not OPs point at all, whether or not Cloudflare is good or best at DDoS protection.
This is like arguing that everyone should only shop on Amazon because they’re cheapest and fastest.
I have no particular skin in this game, but reading the article:
Come on folks 👀
Major Smol Paul energy
Sorry that happened
Looks mad comfy. I like a coaster brake. Great bike for shopping and short trips
I’ve had it wishlisted since it was announced, may be a region thing?
Being able to get the bike into a comfortable working position honestly makes such a huge difference. I got mine from lidl but you do need space, that’s a great tip for alternatives!
Yeah my multi tool has the chain breaker and spoke wrenches built in to it.
I do have dedicated spoke wrenches too but if you’re just getting a starting set of tools then the multitool makes sense.
I used the multi tool spoke wrenches for ages before buying a standalone one. I still use the multi tool for the chain breaker…
Plot twist it’s a shitty tattoo and the pen is just there to justify it
