made use of the repair stand at a co-op this morning to pull a bit of glass out of my tyre.

#reallyneedtotubeless

that's shit.
also strange that the didn't just undo the stem bolts and take the entire cockpit?
isn't that the usual MO of these pricks?

really?! but it looks so real! ;P

just because it's a render now, doesn't mean it won't be used as the basis to create yet another kickstarter shitbike project.

nobody wants another cyclotron

I present to you the E-thunder concept bike.
yet another example seemingly designed by someone who has never ridden a bike before, although perhaps their childhood friend did once let them have a go on their Raleigh vektar?

awesome. i really need to do this at some point.
i did a bit of brazing and metalwork stuff at college (over 20 yrs ago...) but haven't really done any since.
subbed and insta-stalked!

yeah, that does look fun. bet the paint really pops when the sun hits it.

super cool, just skimmed the entire thread having missed it the first (second, third) times around.
amazing functional bike way ahead of it's time

i had a brake related maintenance fail this morning.
I replaced the rear pads on my disc brakes over the weekend but apparently i didn't recess the pistons enough, resulting in feeling like i was riding up hill all the way to work.
at least there was no squeaking though! :P

awesome, looking forward to some pics

cool. i don't doubt they'll be strong enough.
I bet they're comfy.
how's the weight compared to an alloy bar?

yes, I was thinking more superstudio vibes as well

wooden bars are an interesting choice.
What's the story there?

you've got a tiny hand inside your hand?

nice ombré.

caught a couple of nice sunsets this week and a good kingfisher spot on Wednesday morning.
no pics though so you'll have to use your imagination.

They couldn't think of a better name than Fork Flap?

like ass savers did with the 'win wing'?

want sure to post here or on the news thread or eBay thread...

eBay to ban private e-bike sales over fire fears

such a clean build.
is that a brake lever with an integrated bell?

oof, that's bloody lovely! my size as well...

good job it's miles away, if it was closer i'd probably end up buying yet another bike i don't need.

for anyone that's interested, i sent my roll of velvia slide film off to exposure film lab - looks like they've only been doing E-6 since july, but prices seemed pretty keen and it looks like they provide decent high res scans.

no idea what's on the roll as i can't remember shooting any film for probably 7 years. just found this one at the back of my drawer in the office.
i'll post up any interesting shots (if anything comes out at all)

exciting! :D

had the steel version of this for a while - such a simple / useful / practical bike.

i've come to realise that this is a thread about privelege, and we should all sell our bikes and donate the money to https://worldbicyclerelief.org/

anyone succumbed to the hype yet and bought a roland p-6 sampler?
looks like quite a fun toy

it's pretty well packed with grease, but I'll take it out and service it at the weekend. got another commute to do on it tomorrow.

a bit deeper than expected...

i have a love / hate thing going on with my caad12.
i love the way it looks and the way it rides when i actually ride it, but i've fallen out of love with road riding at the moment so it's taking up space.
i think a lot of this was to do with being off the bike for a few months and fitness dropping off while my riding mates were prepping for a long distance event so i felt like i couldn't ride with them as i'd be holding them back.
my caad is tentatively up for sale, but i'll probably regret selling it when spring/summer rolls around next year (which is maybe why i've been so shit at getting a proper for sale ad sorted)
