Any question answered...

Would helicopter tape be sufficient as a frame tube protector for bumps from a brake arm? Frame is 631, brake arm obviously aluminum.

A reaction arm? From a drum brake or something?

Will a solar powered light work indoors under a velux?

Need a nightlight in our bathroom.

No sorry, I mis-named the part, the cable retainer/holder thingie on a single pivot front brake.

Would helicopter tape be sufficient

Depends how hard you hit it. It will certainly provide some level of protection, but if you crash in a way which turns the fork far and hard enough to snap the brake arm, the cable stop is probably going to leave a dent in your downtube.

They're quite a well known brand. Do good stuff for the price. A lot of watersports stuff so plenty of expertise in that area.

Thanks, ended up using the tape covered by a rubber outer from a twist shifter as a little more insurance.

Good to know, thanks.

Does anyone know how much this might be worth? It’s a 1985 Panasonic Team.

any web gurus riddle me this?

I need to put a holding page in IIS for a website, with a URL link in there to a new website - which is probably fairly simple

However, I still need access for admin users internally to the 'old' website - we use browser .pfx certificates to control the logon to the website (for external users and internal admin users)

without URL rewrites etc is there an easy way to achieving both?

cheers

Can anyone recommend a decent battery charger that will charge AAA, AA, C and D cells? My dad's ancient one has just packed up.

Previously I had the one below, which was great until it fucked up after a year and a half. They offered -10% off another... so not exactly inclined buy a 2nd.

Cheers.

Really hard to tell from 1 photo, more photos perhaps?

how much this might be worth?

I'm not seeing anything which would make me part with more than fiddy dorrah

What do you call the bits of rubber you use to properly attach and adjust the read mudguard to the bridge between the chainstays close to the BB?

Reckon the word ‘grommet’ will do?

Can anybody tell me the name of this cantilever?
I can't work out how to fit this small metal ring into the cable clamp!

Cable routing and liners on a Felt FR1 ...

The manual tells me to cross the exposed gear cable sections over each other, but also leave some liner in place.

Do I just run the liners all the way to where the outer starts? Like this guy ?

Frame comes with liners in place btw

Ah thanks man this has helped so much. No part number stamped on the arms....

Acera for sure. Got a rear brake with that A cut into it.

Thanks, such weird brakes.

arguably it fits in, fits in too well

Looks like you have a nano SIM, but need a micro SIM. You can get adapters online for cheap.
