reuse
I have so many paper bags and old packagings for this very purpose in a box in the shed.
The clearout is very cathartic and satisfying. Plus you know you've helped someone else's build. I saw the marathon supremes i sold on @passhunting 's space horse the other day (on here) and it was a good day.
I have a vague idea there is somewhere you can donate parts to as well?
Good advice, using a dremel never occurred to me, was imagining using some larger hardware and risking the frame!
In regards to tyre talk you’re all giving very convincing arguments, however the most convincing argument to me right now is my shed is full of old bike parts, seatposts, saddles, wheels, tyres and handlebars.
Adding another set of barely used tyres to the pile is not sparking joy
Maybe this is the motivation to finally clear it all out, I’ve ordered some bubble wrap and mailing bags this afternoon, ill make a for sale post in the coming days for the random, now unused stuff I’ve hoarded building 2 bikes
