The QUICK question thread.....

You know tomorrow i'm going to put salt in my coffee... And then totally regret it

Don't do it, it's fucking revolting! (as I found out in a Fuckwit Confession way...... ) A year or two ago when knocking up dinner one night I boiled up a pot of water to cook some pasta. Pasta had gone a bit manky so I turfed it & parked the pot of water for another use. Next morning I go to make my wake-up coffee. My not-morning-functional brain says rather than send it to waste we'll reboil that pot of water from the previous night. Not-morning-functional brain had forgotten that said pot of water was salted for the pasta I didn't cook......!

This one?

Only us Pommes/Irish would know that one.

One of my colleagues here tonight is from Vietnam. He advises there is a method for treating coffee beans with salt prior to or during roasting that delivers an amazing result.

That sounds far better than a hot salty bitter latte....

So you've met the ex then...

There is going to be plenty of these! But to kick off my brave new world questions:

Can I run a shimano saint crank with SRAM gx/nx 12 speed drive?


73mm bottom bracket and 148x12 rear hub.

Probably need something like this @pink poodle (just note there is some different variants depending on what chain you're running...):

104 BCD Chainrings

104 BCD chainring for SRAM and Shimano Drop-Stop wide/narrow sprocket

@shiny must be having internet issues, he is normally Rotorburn enabler-in-chief so I was just trying to fill the void.

He best get a 31 tooth as a compromise between 30 and 32.

 

[pink poodle]

32 is where it is at. I'd go 34 if they still fit on frames!

Early dismissal for school has taken me away.

Anyone have any experience with Canfield Balance Formula suspension they would like to share?

I was really impressed with it on the Revel Rail I reviewed on here.

When Canfield have their sales the prices are often pretty tempting.

Yep it’s very much a magic carpet ride. Kind of sits halfway between Horst link and DW-link for most metrics. Tends to eat bumps well without being too compliant.

Just remember you're on big wheels now, smaller front ring to compensate lol.

I had a Canfield a long time ago, and it was a balance! But it was when that was their slope style bike...


I found their suspension platform (which is still similar) was awesome. I really enjoyed the bike. It was snappy for jumping, cornered well, kept traction in the rough, and was supple on square edged bumps.

I'm hoping to grow some leg muscles out of this new leverage dimension! I'm sick of these bin chicken legs.

That's a wide/narrow, not a narrow/wide... The tooth timing will be out of sync.

Is it worth buying a SRAM Chaingap Tool for the rear derailleur? Is it something that needs adjusting from time to time?
