    A sailing mate has the proper name Angus. I call him Sparra. I'll let you join the dots.

    Little Things You Hate

    To be honest, I most probably won't replace the roadie; I'd only ridden it a handful of times in the last 10 years. Although it was a lovely bike to ride, I'm just not into that type of riding any more, and the one that survived will do sufficiently. However, given the specialness of No.1v2 MTB...

    Yes, that'll do. My pet cow farted.

    The QUICK question thread.....

    Should be a pretty simple damper swap; the LVs use the same fork chassis as manual models, and they're all cartridge dampers, so get the appropriate size & it's a direct swap.

    Hey, I'm still living in the 26" age where e-bikes don't exist!

    The QUICK question thread.....

    I don't know about later versions, but the original one was utter shit, huge failure rate. The shop I was in at the time sold a small number of bikes with it. 100% failure rate. EDIT: Very good while it worked, the self adjusting damping was almost undetectable, it just felt "right" for any...

    I think the recent question was Live Valve. Reminds, me, I thought about replying to that but didn't get around to it. Might dig it up.

    Fixt (I meant that!). "Loose" = not tight. Despite my current circumstance I can still be a pedantic bastard! 😆

    One small positive is that the garage was completely detached from the house, so there's no extended damage. @slowmick a bit of singed hair from trying to go in to get the nice roadie out after calling the Fireys (that was no.3 rescue priority after the two most important bikes), but no other...

    N-2. Don't push for details, I'm not telling; I had a fire in my garage on Monday. Got my prized No. 1 MTB (that was the immediate priority) and essential commuter road bike out, but was unable to save No.2 and the nice roadie - both are completely destroyed. 😢 A whole lot of other stuff is...

    Deathcap mushrooms

    Why was the toadstool invited to the party? 'Cos he was a fungi to have around. Why did the toadstool leave the party? 'Cos there wasn't mushroom. :p 😆:p
