Makes sense. Lemmy lived an exemplary Christian existence.

Everyone knows Lemmy is a God. Maybe that had something to do with it ??

Jeez that’s harsh. My mate when we were about 13 came home to find all his Slayer and Destruction records smashed in the back yard by his seriously Christian mum and dad. She even rang Metal for Melbourne and gave them a serve for selling filth to minors.
Weirdly Kreator and Motörhead were left alone.

Chip $1k into my go fund me? Maybe 2.

@Jpez - I saw Kreator live in the 90s. They had good Christian values. Crazy show and crowd. At one point there was a bit of a collapse in the pit and the band stopped and said (in a thick German accent) come on guys - help them up - you gotta look after each other. After everyone was back up he screams - And now it's time to RAISE - THE - FLAG - OF - HATE - Arrggggggggh....

Pinkish bike is the pinkbike pisstake insta. So even more insufferable repetitive niche Squamish/PNW bro in jokes.

I thought some of them were quite funny!

Doing some more reading on the WeAreOne bike and it has a lowish BB and under BB cable routing. All that effort to make a clean bike and they choose to hang loops of cable under the bike. Hmmm

Felix’s is same. Super tidy otherwise. You have to allow a decent bit of cable to allow for the suspension compression and pulling cables. Works fine. It’s my only gripe with the bike.

Honestly don't understand the hate for cabling under BB. Not as tidy aesthetically perhaps, but nice smooth cable runs compared to through BB shell etc.

Not owned a bike with under BB cables but just seems a silly place to hang cables on MTB. Surely they would be prone to damage from rocks etc.

No rock damage ever on the 2 bikes I’ve used (my tranny same), but it adds length, and more bends in the gear cable. These 2 bikes are the only ones that are more fussy with regular cable changes, otherwise downshifting always suffers earlier than it should (I’m fussy AF).
If you’re hitting rocks there, your chainring is already a taco.
I ended up ditching internal on tranny, and sticking guides on the frame to run external.

Chainring... I've never once hit my BB on a rock.
