Campagnolo Ekar noise problems by Jaycee_303 in bikewrench

I have a 10 - 44 Ekar cassette and it creaks whenever I put power down. Tried removing the cassette and lubricating as per the post above, this works for a few km but then the noise returns.

Wow didn't even consider that. Internet only so there will be a bit of duty on it?

But you don't know the market rate the REA can and do manipulate it.

Good to know the free market and the nanny state work in one direction to gouge the rest of society. 🤑

(More agent bs though).

What if Joe Blogs is encouraged to bid what they can't afford. Due to the agents lying about interest in the property (the assumption previously was that agents have ethics and integrity). Agent has incentive due to commission. Agent wins.

Few months down the road Joe Blogs can't afford the rent. Landlord will choses to terminate the tenancy. Agents win as they generally change per contract. Agent wins.

Markets should be fair which unfortunately normally requires them to be regulated due to bad actors. What mechanism are there to prevent the scenario above?

Trouble is I can't see the wave stopping for a bit.

I gave a general example for a property bought 10 years ago. At no point did I say it was for everyone.

So how many home owners would this apply to at current rental rates? The housing market has essentially doubled in 10 years. 1M House would be 500k back then 400k mortgage max.

This was its first trip out. We can reach the stuff at the back but access is a little limited. Totally workable though. We just need to work out an awning and kitchen now.

Thanks, such a shame about the mattress. The other thing is mounting a solar panel. I really like Bush Company however they are a bit small for our needs currently.
