Ok so I have a plunger but don't really like plunger coffee, so your saying get something like this to go on top...

Calling @pink poodle and anyone else, I'm after coffee brewing suggestions for a "tiny house" The gods of schools and local intake area's have not looked kindly upon my family and in order to appease them, I'm doing a tiny house experiment and moving from a real house into a unit for a while so...

Ahh the Blueliquid labs guy, I like his website. I was surprised he wasn't using any sort of cleaning solvent in the process.

Like @hellmansam says dual pivots, whilst not as good as discs you should still be able to stop confidently with your hands on the hoods with those. Kool stop inserts work well in the pad holders also the Ultegra ones.

Yes that is sad, I was wondering how they managed to have a drone in the right place and right time to capture the failure until I read about the previous two failures. I'm waiting for AvE to give his take on the failure.

Sorry I edited my post

Both? Your wife must not be like mine then. I'd be told to be happy with a new hose and stop spending money on just bikes.

@moorey that hose looks pretty manky. Is it new hose or new bike time?

I like to think it's a bit like the sorting hat out of Harry Potter, except that you never know when your wearing it and when it's going give an answer.

Asking for the collective wisdom here, is this a good buy, Or can I do better?
