    Hey what's the go to quality chain breaker? I had a little park tool one which I busted trying to break track chains (it was not designed for them, no shade on park)

    Nice, thanks mate. I reckon it's tb14s

    Hey so I'm building up a nice classic wheelset for use with rim brakes. Having looked for silver open pros, they don't seem to exist any more. What's another option for nice, silver, rim brake, low profile rims? Thanks in advance

    Awesome. Thanks for the tip Steve. It's a reassuringly solid machine, lots of cast steel and a big old motor under the seventies plastic. I was surprised at how wee the burrs were when I pulled them out

    Hey I'm bringing an old Mahlkönig Columbia back into service, but can't find new burrs for it. They're a bit oddball - 50mm outside diameter, 30mm internal, and two mounting holes. Anyone know where I could get some?

    I'm with you Gaston. It all fits so nice. The beat up s75s are a highlight

    Awesome, thanks team. That's what I needed. I'll be in Germany so hoping they'll deliver a complete that far. Brexit is such a bummer

    Hey what's the hive mind view on le petit porteur? Looks like a really lovely simple frame, but wonder if I'd just end up shaking all my stuff out of the baskets. Regular old 700c and panniers better?

    Hey what's the forum hive mind front-loader of choice? We're moving the berlin and need something that can move two kids and be a general city vehicle. We have a yuba supermarche which has been great, aside from a few annoyances with the enviolo. That bike can't come with us, the journey is a bit too long

    I've been through a few enviolo shifters on our supermarche. They're not really up to the task imo - the internals are all plastic so don't last. If you have the cash I'd definitely get a rholoff. I'm planning on doing the same when this hub dies
