Any question answered...

Until we teach horses to talk, how can we know that they don't hate us?

We wouldn't know even then, because they would lie about their feelings in order to keep their jobs, just like any other employee

what happened to catlike helmets? werent they a thing in noughties sportive aesthetic aka the @6pt era?

It's enough for me to know that I hate them.

I have unresolved horse issues. My put upon parents ended up buying my sister a horse. I got some Lego. Space Lego though so not that bad. Also, separately, was kicked by a horse. And I've been pony trekking which was rubbish too.

I was almost killed by horses on two occasions, both before I was 10.

We wouldn't know even then, because they would lie about their feelings in order to keep their multitude of rugs, a warm place to piss and shit everywhere and a doting mug to clean up after them.

Employee!

They do 20min "work" and require hours of prep and sorting out afterwards. I think 1/2 a nag is more than enough for anyone.

Unfortunately WE own two.

Exactly. Why would they blow that sweet gig by telling us what they really thought?

I rather like other people's horses. I used to ride out for a hunter training yard, free riding lessons plus the chance to ride horses that cost as much as my house. They are all a bundle of insanity with a leg at each corner. Owning one, with all the hard work and vet fees? No thanks!

is there a cheaper smaller option with a wall brick?

Any of these have the right connectors both ends? (60W 48V PSUs)

Do SRAM sell 10 speed hydraulic sti?

No, because STI is a Shimano designation.
For 10-speed Doubletap with hydraulic brakes, see https://www.sram.com/en/sram/models/sb-700-hrd-b1

They used to, the S700 Double Tap shifters. I think they've been out of production for a few years, and were never that popular so you might struggle sourcing some. And frankly, they're not very good anyway. They're quite, well, SRAM.

Hello all, couple of questions.

What is a good, cheaper equivalent of muc offs drivetrain cleaner?

And will a salsa alternator pannier rack fit a frame that doesn't have salsas alternator dropouts? I'm running a mudguard and a 27.5, and the pannier legs don't seem to reach the bolt ons.

Cheers.

Thanks 👍

I love spam though, that doesn't even hurt a little bit

Dah, misread the question. Never mind.

I need to drill out an M6 stainless steel bolt from an alu casing.

Can someone recommend some easily purchasable drill bits to do the job.

Also as a secondary question are things like JB Weld/similar strong enough to glue two nuts onto the thread of a bolt to create a new bolt head you can get a socket on?

Cheers.

Sorry missed your reply. Thanks.

You are much better locking the two nuts together by tightening them into each other and using high strength threadlock to assist. the majority of the lock force will be the two nuts being tightened up to each other.
