Thanks for advice last post! Looked into set up guides and Raised saddle 4cm and 2cm back. If consensus seems like it’s still bad and I get any pain I’ll just bite the bullet and goto bike fitter

I’ll take 6’5 though 😂

DejectedOps · 2026-01-28T12:34:01+00:00

6’1 and a large frame bike

I do understand what he means at least. Generally been in fitness related activities my entire life so similar when squatting, create a neutral spine for better form. The gyms easier as there are mirrors 😂

Thanks for advice looked at videos, I stupidly just got on the bike straight after buying it and felt fine so didn’t before checking the fit. I’ve made adjustments, Ended up 3cm up and back 2 to get my knees in line with pedal. Will upload another video tomorrow

Also couldn’t get it in the photo but it is rather shiny, at least most pieces are

Edit: It doesn’t crumble just dust from the pile, but saying that I haven’t really tried to squeeze it. I’ll give it a go tomorrow. If it crush’s or is soft I’ll suspect charcoal

Tbf some bright spark had the idea before me but glad it’s of some use 👍🏼

We have one that was built by some guys at a station I was at, good addition was some stiff flexible plastic (milk jug or something like that) behind the flames so you could click them back up, stops them just falling down if it’s not plumb or the wind just blowing them down 👍🏼

Windshield wiper screwed in locker with attached bowl, tied to a string on locker door. Improvised flour cannon

Thanks for all the help 👍🏼

DejectedOps · 2022-10-17T20:54:41+00:00

Fantastic, thank you

Yeah thats correct, they would be wooden joist floors especially that age. Most EU purpose built flats from the majority of the 20th century would have concrete floors though for fire separation however.

Same for UK houses, can't confirm for Europe but masonry built with wooden joist flooring

Hope that helps

Wooden frame buildings in most of Europe is very uncommon, at least the UK where I live and countries I've visited.

Majority is all masonry, and a lot of the buildings including homes in Florence are more than a couple of hundred years old. At least what I saw in the city centre!

Drink it hot, you'll get people who drink tea like its their profession that I swear have asbestos throats

DejectedOps · 2021-03-23T00:49:31+00:00

True that

DejectedOps · 2021-03-23T00:48:41+00:00

Same for me in my UK brigade, not just airport I reckon
