    Pointless new standards - name and shame the "innovators".

    good onya. im trying to figure out what to do with my current oversupply of bikes, especially the eminently capable XC bike with 135 rear which is now passe due to the constantly changing standards (thankfully, it does have a tapered head)

    Helmets

    agree on the environment thing - its polystyrene not some magical bit of gear that hides all its damage, anyway, take the reviwes with a grain of salt, Ive got the Ambush - it doesnt live up to the coolness hype - certainly no better than my previous Giro hex. all helmets are hot AF unless...

    What does your day look like?

    Do NOT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES give this produce to a brewer. Those fuckwits will stick it in a beer, and the world will be pourer as a result.

    Shaving your balls.

    old school Bepanthen. Be careful if your eyesight isnt the best (or its dark) - its the same size tube as tiger balm and similar writing - now while i dont want to bore you with the details of of how much was applied before I realized this error, I can tell you that running down stairs towards...

    What does your day look like?

    take it to a mechanic and get an equivalent of a pink slip Hakon - that is a safety inspection and they can can tell you whether its a problem or not - if he says yes , then get your lights fixed etc

    Pointless new standards - name and shame the "innovators".

    Pointless new standards - name and shame the "innovators".

    screw that list, i like carbon and quiet deraileurs. i was hoping from the pics that various axle standards were going to be stabbed as well, but alas not..... So i agree on 8, but in their place i want 1x - was it really that hard to change the front ring occasionaly? 12 speed 32x51 is too...
