A order.

Never buying from them again.

That’s what I think of when I hear gourmet and coffee in the same sentence!

Woah, excellent outcome!

you could always throw money at it, and use 3D printing in a metal of your choice

3D printed at Renishaw in thin walled Ti and highly polished or GTFO.

Yagua Barista used to be a favourite on here.

Lanceropress method, in case you weren't sold on the Hoffropress.

Can you calculate the weight of a bike by weighing the front wheel and then the rear?

Yes

Is there fancy maths required or just add the two weights together?

No

Does it matter if I weigh using a luggage scale so hanging the bike rather than sitting it on a bathroom scale type thing?

Not really

Hope I’m not stating the obvious, but whatever you go for, you absolutely 100% want one which doesn’t have a blue light. It’s distracting in the night and the blue light will bugger with your sleep.

1:10 buggies are probably the most accessible because everyone knows about them. They give you flexibility on the surface they run on. The issue with those will be the disparity between handling, so making actual racing fair between cars will be difficult even if you all use the same motors and batteries.

As @Alex_B said, Kamtec and Mardave ministocks have always been the cheapest way in. They’re more obscure to people and you’ll need a decent surface. However, racing will be equal between cars, the cars are designed to take a beating, huge range of bodies, easy to add outlaw classes and banger meets etc etc. You won’t need a massive track or space to use them.

Yeah, generations. Who’d have ‘em?

Less brain.

8 months is pretty small and I think they want to be in their size zero car seat at that point. If you were to look at non isofix seats which accommodate from newborn up to about 4 years, they quite often have flat bottoms and can strap down. My logic here is you’ll need one later anyway so it won’t be wasted money. Example is the Joie Stages.

Also look up the Melia toddler seat. Again, 8 months is maybe a bit small but as soon as they can sit up properly it’s a very versatile seat and well worth the money. Has its own seatbelts and has strapping points. Looks like my youngest was in the Melia seat from around 9 months and I reckon it’ll last until they’re about 3.

William Lennon ones are great for the money but do allow space to put a thin leather insole in them. It makes the difference between a shoe that shreds up inside within a couple of rides and a shoe that lasts for ages. These ones work well:

While we're on the subject, any recommendations for a 58mm magnetic dosing funnel? All the cheap ones don't seem to have much actual funnel to them, which surely defeats the object?

do you WDT?

How exciting. Wonder if it’s someone I know!

Rebuild time. I’m going to be putting this back into mtb guise with the Monkeylites, 9-speed X0 and DX brakes as per the original build. I’ve been putting this off for ages because the bars, 9-speed stuff and brakes are on my cargo bike, and that means practically a full rebuild for both bikes. The 10-speed 105 on this will go back into the stash and I have 10-speed X0 and Avid vees for the cargo.

A lot of YouTube people use the Pro model iPhones to record their content. I don’t think there’s any advantage to the normal user by even having the Pro over the regular model tbh. If you are looking at the 13 vs the 15 and filming is likely to be its use, it’ll be worth watching a couple of the more recent YouTube videos from DankPods. He’s always used iPhones and found the 15 to be a bit glitchy and less flexible than previous models.

I saw that over on RB. Good scoop.

Question. Why is it every time I walk into the bank the tellers look at me like I'm the one that robbed them last week? Come on man. Funk that.

This!

I think pewter might be a bit like lead when you heat it, ie it turns suddenly to liquid. It also has a pretty low melting point around 200°C. So I wouldn’t heat it up. Depending how thick it is, you might just be able to push it round a bit of pipe with your fingers to form it, because it’s pretty soft. Got a pic?

Old-fashioned jewellers is what you need.

Can confirm there are 24 hours in a day.
