I don't know....I thought making fun of your bike building/maintenance techniques was something we all joke about around here?
I'm just trying to fit in, damnit!
Yeah I try to save money by not paying hundreds of dollars to somebody else every step of the way or reuse things I have instead of pissing money away, but I’m perfectly capable of installing my own forks, bleeding my brakes, and dropping lowers on everything I own. Doesn’t mean I want to if I can skip the service though.
That was a pegging joke. Come on.
Well, I have no idea if that's any better than a traditional fork, but there's no doubting it's going to be different and interesting.
Huhuhuhuh
Better get a bearing puller/installation tool. 18 bearings is quite a few.
No, I tried an ebike as a commuter but it wasn’t for me. I don’t want one for mtb.
He can borrow mine any time he wants, just to show I'm not a dick, I just play one online.
Neither do I, but I intend on finding out. I highly doubt I’ll need to worry about bearings before I eventually resell it. Bearings don’t just asplode that quickly in my hands so I’m not too worried
Caught two Chipmunks in my bucket trap today. Hopefully I'll be able to murder the remaining little bastards who have done potentially thousands of dollars of damage to my car. They are pretty damn difficult to catch. Tried two types of mouse traps, but they can get the bait without springing the trap. Did catch three mice in the garage though.
Next step, now that I am vaccinated, is to coordinated with my insurance company, Enterprise rental, taxi/Uber/shuttle?, and the Honda dealership. The whole front of the car has to come off to replace the chewed windshield washer fluid reservoir. Several wire assemblies will have to be replaced as well as any other damage not yet apparent.
Good times.

I know you're not a dick (you just play one on TV) but there's another fella who has me convinced.
Does he have a mustache?
Does the bear wear a funny knife in the shed?
on a happier note, I just sold my seasucker in about 30 minutes. Holy shit something something supply chain covid shortage something

Funny you say that....I got rid of my car earlier this week, and listed my ~10yo Thule 400XT/load bars/fairing for sale on FB (well, fake wife did), and she said there was 5-6 inquiries almost immediately. 'Twas sold by the end of the day.
Fuuuu.....
That sucks. Guess you didn't drive it all that much because of teh Covidz?
...and my old brakes
....and my old pedals
holy shit...now is a great time for moving dead stock
Been commuting to the studio nightly, but don't go many other places.
Also forgot to mention that when I got new tires is when I discovered the wiring damage which caused a sensor to "fail' thus resulting in no inspection for the Toaster.
Hopefully I won't get pulled over until I get this shit worked out.
fight fire with fire?
We had mice or something in our prius. I'm not sure how they got in, but they built a nest inside the heater fan and turning it on was...interesting. Changed the cabin air filter and paid somebody to get the nuts out of the blower motor. Only $180 so not too bad.
Did stuff get sprayed with shredded mice bits ?

Twice now a neighborhood (work) cat has stopped on it's evening rounds right in front the spot on my car where the washer fluid reservoir is and sniffed at it for a bit. Who knows what the mechanics will find.
No spray, though we did get a dead baby mouse behind the cabin filter
Potted my Pepper Plants. Standard Habanero, Caribbean Red Hot Habanero, Chocolate Habanero and Trinidad Scorpion(2)
I did that today with butter and honey!
I got a parcel today too. My latest mostly unnecessary offering to capitalism.

Look at the braided steel.

Wish I could’ve got red banjos though.
I have tried such in the past with black, it never lasts and looks shite. I have airbrush painted some boring steel banjos gold though, for a project build I did. Some Juicy 7s that were pretty much fucked, I brought them back to life.

I believe this could be a yoda meme....
Mmm. Butter and honey. I've never thought of that. It was usually one or the other.
A match made in heaven! Peanut butter and honey toast is another combo from heaven. Dang I know what I am about to eat.
