Before he was shot I only saw him on Youtube being quite outspoken and aggressive/condescending while debating his political position with academics, students etc. which showed him to be an educated and seemingly quite intelligent complete arsehole. Agree with everyone that being assassinated is terrible for his family and unfortunately the biggest problem I see is that it makes him a martyr for the scum that he supported. Literally anyone who is pro-Trump seems to be stupid, racist, short sighted and basically fucking dangerous. The utter retardedness of Trump's whole persona and presidency is so completely ridiculous satirists will be losing their jobs as you simply couldn't make up the dumb shit he does and says every single day. Being a 'genuinely nice human' would suggest someone who is in some way trying to improve things for ordinary people in a selfless way, something that simply cannot be said for anyone who is anti-gay, anti-trans, anti-abortion, pro-white supremacist, anti-immunisation, pro-Trump etc. etc. It feels like he was distressingly good at pushing his twisted, fucked up politics to a large portion of young, impressionable (stupid) Americans. While we're here I'm livid that the orange cunt is in the UK again. In other news, I only noticed today at work that the Silverhook Big Boy filler logo looks a lot like Trump, if a bit less orange...

I haven't even got round to fitting these but I don't see any real reason it couldn't be set up tubeless. One thing to note is that it's drilled for Schrader valves so you'd need to get Schrader tubeless valves for it to work.

Looks like a Galfer Shark of some description.

While we're on the subject of Eebs in 2025 I find it quite cool that Megamo are now making ebikes with DJI motor systems (both carbon and ally versions available too which is nice): https://www.megamo.com/en/e-bike/e-full-suspension For some reason they only sell in Spain but look pretty good.

I don't know quite what it is but they kinda make my eyes bleed... They're almost like caricatures of eMTBs or sometihing. Frame shapes, tubing positions, colourways... Nope, not a fan but enjoy it!!

Are Haibike's designed by blind people? Like, good for them if so but really...

My wife recently got an eeb and though I was determined to hate it for being fat and heavy and ugly I actually mainly hate riding it because the motor cuts out so early (standard 15.5mph). On anything other than uphill slogs you end up at that limit and it feels harder to ride than if there wasn't a motor. I just don't really get it unfortunately for the type of riding we do and where we live. She loves it which is great and it means she can keep up with the boys and I and enjoys riding but I just don't get on with it at all. One thing I would say is that if I were to get one I'd definitely be looking at FS. remember that the bike will weigh ~25kgs and so any kind of rough stuff that weight will make for a pretty uncomfortable ride without the cushioning of rear suspension. The fact you've got a motor means the extra weight of a FS setup doesn't matter but you'll be glad of it off road I think.

Torx. Couldn't tell you what size though I'm afraid...

I just got a couple of Tartybikes rims for my son's MTB: https://www.tartybikes.co.uk/24_inch_rims/tartybikes_double_wall_24_inch/c43p14044.html?pos=223.42857360839844&search_params=YTo4OntzOjg6ImluX3N0b2NrIjtpOjA7czoxMjoiY2F0ZWdvcnlfaWRzIjthOjE6e2k6MDtzOjI6IjQzIjt9czoxNjoiY2F0ZWdvcnlfcmVjdXJzZSI7YjoxO3M6ODoia2V5d29yZHMiO3M6MDoiIjtzOjk6ImJyYW5kX2lkcyI7TjtzOjQ6Im1vZGUiO3M6MzoiYWxsIjtzOjQ6InNvcnQiO3M6OToicHJpY2VfYXNjIjtzOjEwOiJjb3VudHJ5X2lkIjtzOjE6IjEiO30%3D Seem like good value and a quality option.

Just to add to Ross's comment you can still buy Irn Bru 1901 which sticks to the old 34g of sugar per can 'proper' stuff!

Single Speed Spacing a Chris King ISO - what spacers fit?!
monkeyseemonkeydo replied to Brettoll's topic in Trials Chat
It's not just damage to the drive splines causing problems is it? I've had it before where the internal clearance on the spacers is minimal and a little filing of any burrs on the drive shell has made all the difference to getting them to fit. -
I'm still not sure how anyone can defend Trump and not see him as a disgusting, vile human being who should never have been able to get into a position to be president, let alone voted in twice! There isn't a single redeeming feature about him and his actions, the way he talks about people, the compulsive lying, criminal behaviour etc. etc. just leave me speachless that anyone could support him. But that's me and something for the angry thread...

Fusion360 a 3d printer and dorky road bike aero
monkeyseemonkeydo replied to manuel's topic in Chit Chat
What do they do?... 3D printing for the win for sure! I've been printing finger skis and finger snowboards for the boys this weekend
