Well as i live in the Netherlands, we probably have different bin systems as in the uk. My city mostly works with side loading trucks. On the side of the truck is an arm that can pick up two bins at once. If the bins are neatly put in a straight line on the curb, I don't have to touch the bins at all and the driver can empty them, putting the bins back in the exact same spot.

As for the chaos after the bins are emptied, as long as the sidewalk is free for wheelchair users, i don't see the problem. Putting all the bins neatly back after emptying them would simply take too much time.

Also only having to wait 1 more day to get your bin emptied because of bank holidays seems pretty great. In my city they would be collected either the Saturday before or after.

As a binman myself, i wish people would obsess more about the positioning of their bins on collecting day. Also people who put all their trash separately in their bins instead of using trash bags annoy me a lot, especially if they overfill their bins as well.

I've send you a pm.

He listed it before and after a month it still wasn't sold. He also lowered the price to 1900 before. So he might be willing to post it. Otherwise i wouldn't mind shipping it to you, as I'm in the Netherlands.

I've thought about getting rid of my salsa fargo and get the Jones myself. But the fargo seems better suited to the mix of riding I do.

Their framebags in bigger sizes are designed to fit traditonal triangle frames.
Have you looked at the half frame bags by podsacs that are also on planetx? They are affordable and also waterproof

Have you looked at the vincita frame bags on planetx? The small one fits nicely in my medium salsa fargo, which is mtb geo as well.

this should work. You would only need 3 sections instead of the 4 that come in a set. That would be a 130cm pole, which would be perfect for the lanshan 1. You would also need to put something on the end of the pole to support the tent.
This could work, but you can also use something that you have available already.

I've got a bagman qr with the extra support rods that bolt on to the frame. I found that the bagman by itself would flex too much with a loaded camper longflap. the support rods are great, no more flex. I usually clip on a shoulder strap and take the bag with me when i do groceries on trips.

You're looking at the pro version of the lanshan, which is more of a winter tent as it's a single wall tent that will have condensation issues in summer.
I would get this.
It's a bigger version of the lanshan 1. Or just get the lanshan 2.

Yes, 28/42. As i live in the Netherlands i came to realize a 11-42 cassette makes not much sense for me though.

I've got a sram x7 derailleur and have no issues with a 11-42 shimano casette. Works great when cycling trails, but the gaps in between gears are too big for gravel or tarmac roads.

I got a set of these last week but haven't put them on the bike yet. The material they are made of feels really strong and I would guess metal cages would fail sooner. They seem like a pretty good copy of the salsa anything hd cage to me. If you use straps instead of bolts to secure it to your forks, it's even better as it has little slots in them so the straps run closer to the cage.
The bags are a bit heavy though so I'll probably replace those.

If i remember correctly, this was build for a dutch cyclist and his failed attempt of breaking the hour record a few years ago. He went to a velodrome somewhere in latin america that was at a high altitude, but found it to be full of cracks.

Bombtrack beyond and salsa fargo are pretty similar to the vagabond, both available with steel forks. Just to throw a couple more options out there

Awesome build! Looks like a lot fun to ride.

What worries me is how the conversation is mostly about how Iran will respond and all the bad or good things that Suleimani has done.
This is victim blaming on a level of international politics.
More questions should be asked about the agressor and their intentions, which is Trump and his administration.

Why are men bad at parallel parking?
Because they confuse 1 inch with 8 inches.

I wind my manual watch every day before i go to bed. Wind untill resistance.

Sad how this article ends on the assailants claim of doing no wrong and doesn't mention the witness account of another driver.

Love the understated designs of the first Certina DS.

Yeah my old composit eats up my shorts as well. I find that it doesn't happen as much once the saddle has been adjusted properly though

I cycle with these pedals and a pair of xero sandals. The soles are hard rubber and completely flat, also very floppy. The size of the pedals makes this combination work great. I wouldn't use a squishy sneaker, but i reckon you really don't need something with a stiff carbon sole on these pedals at all. I think using shoes that don't raise the heel, helps as well.
