LFGSS and Microcosm shutting down 16th March 2025 (the day before the Online Safety Act is enforced)
LFGSS has been a near daily part of my life for 14 years. It pre-dates meeting my wife, getting my first job and eventually leaving London (and the UK). I have learned more from the people 'on here' than I did from university, and I feel grateful to have been able to contribute back to the community on occassion. I haven't met many of you in real life (except that one time @hippy appeared after I was punched in the face) but the familiarity built up through years of reading your posts is something I will miss greatly if it disappears. Thanks Velocio for everything you have done and continue to do. I hope there is a solution that allows LFGSS to continue in as similar a form as possible.

If I can offer sonething as a permanent resident of Switzerland (address, bank account…) I would gladly do so.

What are the chances this gets resolved before March 16th?

I think he was asking about that weird cactus, not the bike.

They are low end SRAM cranks, so quite heavy, but there's nothing 'wrong' with them. Is the price of a new BB more than the price of a replacement crankset and a new BB from a different standard? The good thing about those cranks is that they still use cheap and easily replaceable chainrings rather than direct mount.

If you can take some measurements of the old one then it should be a very simple part to model. I can't quite work out its function, is it just a low friction layer between the wood and the tuning peg? I would worry that a lot of 3D print materials would creep under constant force from string tension. I would happily make one from POM on a lathe if you get the dimensions.

I've made a shed base and wall, does that count? It wasn't easy even though the concrete was craned in.

DT Swiss now offering a SP hub with their stickers and straight pull spokes. I can see the appeal of matching hubs.

Friday 13th, everyone forgot to pin their numbers upside down.
So it's just reminding you that no one has told you those things? I would put a comma at the end of the first line just to make sure there's no misunderstanding.
