If I have a frame with a short head tube & threaded headset, and threaded forks with a very long steerer tube, what will happen if I cut off the threaded section of the forks, swap the top of the headset and run it threadless?
Will I die?
Is there some sort of qualitative difference between the steerer of a threaded and threadless fork?

My partner has decided riding with the child on the back of her track bike is too wobbly and I’m going to build something more stable
I’m looking for a small mixte road frame in decent steel that will take bigish tyres or a step through steel mountain bike frame with canti studs of 26” vintage
Did anyone ever make non shit womens’ mountain bikes ? They are hard to find if so
Couple of muddy fox courier mixtes on eBay but either hilariously expensive or a really long way away, one of those would be perfect but only really want a frame
Need something 49-52cm st ish
Thanks!

Saw these guys in west Norwood earlier. DAS’d but was not furnished with a skid, guy just tutted and repeated “do a skid” in the kind of voice you’d use to dismiss a 2am strangled pipespeak demand for a chicken wing coming from a cloudy phonebox
Anyway looks like a cool business if anyone in SE wants emissionless gardening. Maybe they’ll be able to do trotter van style drifting round roundabouts when it starts raining again

Probably should have made this post a couple of months ago when the great editor drought was at its peak, but the productions paused for lockdown have created a glut of post work and I’m constantly asked for recommendations when I’m busy for jobs
I cut mostly factual/doc stuff, I try/would like to do feature stuff as much as possible but I get a lot of offers for dispatches and panorama, C4 and ITN factual one offs and daytime/ evening fact ent type stuff. If that’s up any other editors’ street I’d be glad to pass on details next time I’m asked. And if you need a (minor) award winning and only gently combative editor we can swap real names through dm.

Scan do good speccable laptops as well as the various others mentioned above, have heard anecdotally that because of the chip shortage prebuilt stuff is much better value than build your own at the moment.
If you’re not playing games or doing video work the graphics on chip in ryzens or i5s are fine, a dedicated card just drains battery and will be underpowered compared to the desktop equivalent anyway. 16gb ram preferable to 8 but seems to be expensive in laptops.
Imo the new macs blow everything else out of the water, MacBook Air with the M1 chip is a grand, lovely screen and all day battery

Was going to suggest these
There’s also a tektro version

Modern centrepulls are available and won’t stop you but look cool

Can hardly wait for the post this morning!
@pdlouche, can you print on both sides of the window sticker ones? Hypothetically speaking would a sticker that said “I’m a cunt” on the outside and “you’re a cunt” on the inside be possible? Might be useful for slapping into the windscreens of cunts who need reminding of their cuntiness as well as a warning to others of the cuntiness within?
I’m not interested in this either
