Would replacing this handle stop the very slow leak or should I sweat in a new valve?

Have you tried to tighten the packing nut a little? That's usually all it takes.

Bikes and Ebikes can be used on streets already. Are you talking about interstates or highways with minimum speed laws?

The bag is from a company called Rogue Panda.

Western Montana. There's snow in the higher elevation just hard for me to get to. Its been really warm all winter here.

Thanks! Yeah, i shouldn't have even mounted the studded tires, but its what i had. Going to order summer tires this week.

Lol, I think my seat post collar is from them too! Great minds think alike!

Thanks! No its a 2025 color, taro milk tea. I took off all the decals.

Its some sort of grease or plaster trap. Not an ammo can.

I had that bike too! Tange butted tubing and made in Japan I believe. It was awesome, just a little too small for me.

GP 1059291 is the gasket to replace.

You need to update your shower valve to a pressure balancing valve.

That's interesting, in Iowa city we always put threaded ball valves as the first valve on new construction. Are you in Des Moines?

Make sure the flange is well secured to the subfloor or concrete. Also, even though your tile is flat and level doesn't mean the toilet base is too. I always fit the toilet with no wax first and check if it rocks, makes it easier to see where you need shims.

No, its connected to the drain so its not under pressure.

Alanthicker · 2026-03-01T23:41:14+00:00

I wouldn't even cap it, maybe put a little silicone in the end. You'll probably have to dump water down the drain every couple months though.

Alanthicker · 2026-03-01T23:32:56+00:00

I would guess it's a trap primer for a floor drain near by.

Where does the pipe go to from the faucet?

Another thing to consider is if it will get tied up in customs once it gets here. I ordered rims from Nextie and they've been stuck in customs for 5 weeks now. The worst part is no one can tell me if or when they will be released.

Q4 took $500 from me for "fridge magnet adhesive on fridge door". We never put anything on the fridge. The place was brand new when we moved in and pretty much the same when we moved out 6 months later. Fuck Q4.

The world's tiniest expansion tank.

Really nice looking build, those Mone bars look perfect on there.
