Not quite. Up to 7.5T and not towing, it's 50 on single carriageways, 60 on dual carriageways, 70 on motorways.

In this photo, the teeth at the top are out of phase, so the wider teeth are wedging into the narrow inner-plate gap. It's not clear what's happening at the bottom of the ring.

My dad took me to see him in a big cathedral or church somewhere on the North Wales coast when I was a kid. I'd learned Tárrega's Lagrima recently, so hearing him perform Recuerdos de la Alhambra was enthralling, even sitting a few rows from the back.

Compressing the fork doesn't change the position of the fork crown, relative to the headset or frame. With the downtube having the flatter section behind the headset rather than being a straight tube, there might not even be contact between the tyre and downtube.

At first I mistook the golden monstrosity for part of the background, seeing only a long black Ute. The praised acceleration and braking would be prodigious if you turned it into a pickup.

Weren't you looking for a speedy bike hauler for your trip to the Alps?

This would also reduce the wheelbase and, by steepening the headangle, increase the effect of reversing the fork.

What's the wheelbase if you turn the fork backwards?

Rear tyre typically is more heavily loaded than the front and loss of grip at the rear is easier to handle than at the front, so grippy front fast rear.

My ADHD and Dyslexia weren't diagnosed until I was 26, thanks to teachers only looking for that kind of thing in the lower sets. I was good at exams, awful at homework whether coursework or not. I am incapable of revising and incredibly good at winging it (in all contexts). I overanalyse because that's how I learn. I only got a C in A-level Maths+Stats because I couldn't reliably pick apart the nuts and bolts of them without getting misdirected by the maze of suspiciously similar jumbles of symbols and operators.

What I have learned in the almost 8 years since diagnosis is that I engage with people and lived experiences. If I had been a teenager this year, I'd be utterly fucked for life, rather than just wishing I'd been diagnosed before the 4 years that earned me a 2:2 BSc.

Probably a combination of supply issues with "proper cyclist" parts, their usual customers having got their bike-related spending done 4-6 months ago, plus increased demand from commuters wanting to avoid public transport while the weather's nice/sweaty.

With those dimensions I'm also seeing 6082, so...?

Arrived pretty quick, you register the pack to say when you're taking the test then you drop them off at a Royal Mail "Priority" postbox the same day. The sample has to be analysed within 48h of being taken to be valid. I got the results by email and SMS.

So, in a rare occurrence, #seller ?

Am I likely to be able to return a helmet if I order online and it doesn't fit?

I don't see anything specific to helmets or COVID on Wiggle's pages, but it's worth checking the terms for wherever you find the helmet. https://www.wiggle.co.uk/h/option/returns-uk

Keep the tags on and wear it around the house for a few hours to make sure it's not too snug anywhere that might give you a headache after a while.

afaik COVID survives on dry surfaces for 3-7 days (depends what the surface is), so if you're asymptomatic and return the helmet, by the time it gets back to the shop the risk of transmission should be minimal.

Some places don't accept helmets like the Switchblade as fullface, so they're of limited use.

anything else to consider?

The shape of your skull.

My GF has a proframe she bought the day before Gowaan Fest. It was discounted but still twice what she'd budgeted, but no full-face no ride and the ProFrame fit better than the other ones she tried on.

If you add a bike to your profile as an e-bike, I think all rides for that bike should be locked to "e-bike ride".

But Strava, and they can't monetise that development work.

I don't get it.

My partner tracks her e-cargo-bike mileage for tax purposes and correctly logging the bike used for all rides allows me to tack component life across the whole fleet and anticipate maintenance.

I'll just keep it real stupid and go for no brakes.

fixed that for you.

Parcelforce have a £8 handling fee on anything that incurs vat and/or duty, most international post gets handled by them.

You can't put canti bosses and u-brakes on the same side of the stays, the unused bosses would interfere with the caliper. I figured they might be almost flush to allow removable bosses to be used, like the v-bosses on many suspension forks.

U-brake?

Given the failures were of the carcass at the shoulder rather than becoming vulnerable to debris as the tread thins, I think one grade softer might force tyre changes before carcass failure happens.
