Current Projects chat and miscellany

I've been using a dutch bike with a mounted dynamo light. You get a shadow above stuff on the road (potholes, rocks, discarded kfc etc) which is actually good for spotting things. So long as you angle it downwards enough I don't think it's much of a problem for oncoming traffic.

I did a test run last night, the light isn't that bright actually. It lights up the road ok, you can't see it really with road lights being on. it becomes more of a saftey light then.

10 points to whoever tells me what it is.

bubble wrap

yep.

a washing machine

one of the crap vertical ones that the axles always break on, then they sound like a airplane taking off.

can he make it a hat trick?

thankfully not my washing machine.

a dryer too

nevermind. i thought the bb might give it away...

Oh... It's a frame!

can anyone tell me if these route the cables internally or externally?

External

thanks

Some progress to the kaff. Waiting for some bar-end shifters, a tubus rack and a few other bits (the rest..).

spacers gonna space

Well, it'll be my practical bike/tourer. Comfort over cred.

Still, we always put a max of 3cm spacers underneath the stem. When you have a lot more there will be to much pressure on the stem.
Short said, the frame is to small.

The XL frame would be too big. So this is the way it's gon' be.

Will probably swap the stem for a high-rise one later on though.

And the maximum amount of spacers can be discussed. 3-5cm, and thats on carbon forks..

Give the lad a break, it's not his mother tongue
