Well, we got the fenders trimmed. I had spent a lot of time thinking about how to do it and not have it look like crap. Finn went out there and got...

Several Pioneer Elite AV receivers have Class D amplification. Some Onkyo receivers do as well.

Yikes, that is not something you ever expect to happen. Could've been seriously catastrophic. Glad you're OK. Only one of my bikes has that double...

uh oh

Good idea especially in the winter time with dry indoor air. Dries fast and adds a wee bit of moisture into the air.

Count me on the room correction train. I replaced a B&K AVR202 (~$3k new) with a Denon x3700 last fall (~$1k) and everything is much cleaner...

BikeRumor has a good overview on N3W setup and compatibility. Of course it makes total sense now, but I didn't realize the key to the detachable...

I prolly ride 60-70 % of my road miles fixed on fairly flat ish rides. I would consider the 69 light unless there is a lot of rolling stuff. I...

My American Giant hoodie is like 3 times the weight and thickness of my old American Apparel hoodie. So much so that it’s been useless unless I’m...

Hey Andy - while I could have gotten that buried bolt out to inspect it, even I took it out I highly doubt there would be anything to “see” with the...

Geez Brian, that's terrible, and must have been quite a shock! Glad you are OK! Do you think you would even have seen the bolt as a hazard even upon...

I was just thinking that the PC that does all my A/V is the oldest piece of equipment I have in use. Then I remembered that my Denon 3808 is still in...

Fantastic new adventure, I love it.

Many moons ago (read 18 years) I had a Bosch washer and dryer. Loved the machines - build quality on them were outstanding - but didn't love the...

You would also ride to the race, so you get things like wheel carriers for the front forks, or odd hubs, fixed on one side and multi speed freewheel...

I like both of them, so I usually just root for a good battle. MvdP shook his head in frustration as he fell off of WvA's wheel. Before the...

what keeps me from going bonkers is that i'm in a 1000+ square foot apartment. Bigger and better speakers require more generous spacing requirement...

it's a 1 inch steerer - I think fork is a Dural Vitus fork. In 80s&90s a lot of manufacturer of aluminum or carbon bike used this Vitus fork. I had...

The J. Crew french terry hoodies are excellent. They're warm, and mine has lasted forever. I recommend!

I continue to believe the Chrome cobra hoodie is one of the finest garments ever made.

Lots of good info for the OP's problem so there's nothing I can add. Except I never had a complaint with cantilever brakes of any type. Simple to...

You can do stoppie with any brake. It is about weight distribution, not power.

So I’m okay moving forward with the Minimal fork then?

I think they look great on 'cross bikes. Especially my gold TRPs

Increasing the head angle will reduce wheel flop. Increasing the rake will also reduce the wheel flop factor. ...

I'm currently exploring the Columbus Minimal option at the moment...wouldn't wheel flop be a possibility with too much rake and steeper head angle?

Rinse cycle for cats. It’s in the manual.

You guys are making me feel like a mechanical genius. So thanks for that. Never had any problem setting them up and getting plenty of brake with no...

I ended up getting a top loader- Not a front load washer. My wife and I go scared off on the issues with front loading machines. Leaving the door...

I can visualize that Bill. I've ridden some of the steep stuff in that area years ago. Bad roads and bike lanes as well. Screaming brakes are...

Jon...I’m tempted to buy a cloche with the KA gift certificate that my Mother gave me for Christmas. Also with the heavy percentage whole wheat mix,...

I had Avid canti's on my Gunnar Crosshairs I used for commuting. I had a big descent into Bremerton on my work-bound commute and each time it was a...

Really, only 100 lbs of force needed? Well, that might be doable. The exact radius doesn't matter as long as I can get a bend in it. I know it will...

I bought the DVD at the Richmond, Virginia NAHBS way back in 2010. I've watched it many times over the years. Great video!

I may have missed the post where the OP reveals the subject frame and fork, but it's worth noting that the right cantilever choice is narrowed down...

I’ll gladly hang with you, Will - I’ve never liked the look of them. In fact, despite being only 5km away from the OP and having a wealth of bike...

Speed modulators. I might be the only one, but I think cantis are ugly from an aesthetic POV.

6-4 Ti should take about 100 lb. of force on the end to get it to yield. So you may want to use a cheater bar. Weird thing is that it will move...

Fair point. I'm still going to root for the cyclocrosser who rides themselves crosseyed in the race they're in instead of thinking about the next one.

I've never seen one of those before. Some wild details on that bike. Is the steerer 1 1/8" or are my eyes tricking me? Very neat. I hope you have...

Drying racks are your friend. Have a dryer too but seriously, try a drying rack. Your clothes will last orders of magnitude longer if they’re air...

Really, the only reason to suspect "old" gear. Caps fail, components drift, and repair is sometimes difficult, if not impossible. Otherwise... I'm...
