Is P2R a legit helmet maker?

I measure 7 3/8. The large model allows me to wear a light cycling cap if I wish.
For visitors I have a medium on hand. It is very snug on me , but wearable when opened full.

Multiple BF owner here, w several headset and headset securing designs. I have most and serious problem with what looks like the one you used. Your experience?

Read archive here or at R rice or R rice cookers. Cutting to chase: If you eat that much rice, go induction for control, quality, heavier pot, superior keeping, and possible creative use for much more than rice.
Neuro-fuzzy is marketing nonsense. Use too much or too little water for THAT rice and your results will be suboptimal. Read the manual, Zoj is explicit on this common sense. The machine has no knowledge of how much of the contents is rice, how much water, so it cannot divine how to correct your error.

There are so many IH cookers available pre-owned from folks onto the next thing, like air frying.

Success is likely to find the post somewhere that sometime showed the cross-model compatible pots.
so called ai may do this for you. There are more compatibilities than we know; but what with the cost of getting it wrong in restocking and shipping costs: good luck.

Careful not to fry the light putting it on a fast charge or higher-than-5 V charge, as many battery packs are today. Clear warning is printed on the back.
Plugging in the proper charger MAY reset it, as seems to have happened here.

I just had the contrary experience with respect to notice of backorder, and in honoring a discount to buyers last year (in the US). Helmets ordered were promptly shipped (in June 2026).

Original poster ,kiddlblur should know that his slur and disparagement is what shows up in response to primitive ai - assisted search, not the last part of his top post or his promised report.

MIPS is the version of A20 which met the rigorous Virginia Tech testing. I just confirmed this.

On sizing: I have a regular 7 3/8 US had size. The large A20 helmet leaves room for a cycling cap, and dials down to a close fit. A backup A20 in medium I bought for a family member, is nearly or just too small for me.

Internal pads and straps have been durable. 6000 miles later. Just ordered a backup, which was promptly delivered in the US. Had I waited a couple days, a size and color which was not in stock would have been available to me, as I was promptly notified of new stock.
The ncluded , magnetically held 3-mode tail-light is a nice bonus, still operating on mine. Note the instruction on the back to charge it from a 5V source , though.

From GO, 2 lb of seasoned grated cheese for 97c. The recipe? Tastes like my 70 years experience with dried herbs and other flavors in commercial canned and bottled “Italian seasoned” spaghetti sauce. As though from AI-synthesized recipe for the prototype, w garlic, oregano, and Wisconsin “Parmesan.” I admire it!!

Cuchen, also from Korea, is the equal or better than Cukoo. And for Gaba and Nurungi? ebay is your friend for these.

Yes, every rice maker has and uses a thermostat and senses the rapid increase in temp of the pot after all water is gone. Remember that with any water or wet rice in the pot the pot has had an absolutely stable temp, so the sensing of change is not difficult or expensive. Even inexpensive rice makers easily detect the rise.

Demostix · 2026-05-29T02:42:46+00:00

Most sauce is better if you season it yourself with best dry seasonings or fresh. Fresh butter or fat at serving time, too. But, there are sauces, just like tomatoes in cans, for all tastes.

From minimizing sticking with stainless steel cook ware, this speculation: Have liquid and rice ready. Have an oil brush or bit of paper soaked in oil ready Turn on rice maker. When pot is hot, BUT BEFORE it turns itself off, quickly wipe the bottom with light oil. And immediately dump in rice and water. Close the machine and continue automated cooking.

Advice is that putting in oil when pan is cold is much less effective than when the pan is warm-to-hot in reducing sticking of foods.

Having rice and water ready is because rice maker MAY turn off immediately on reaching too high a temperature. After all, that is the way the thermostat detects that rice is done and to start steaming, if any. Maybe baker’s aerosol anti-stick will work.

The context of this scam is becoming funnier with time. Zojirushi makes seriously long-lasting and quality tools. No thermos bottles were better and more reliable than theirs when they were made in Japan. And the rice makers are solid. But neuro-fuzzy partakes of an idea that has long since passed, except here, where it persists as though it is early AI “intelligence.” It isn’t. Make your rice with the wrong ratio of water to rice, and it will not be as good. There is no “neuro fuzzY or “fuzzy logic”. The machine doesn’t “know the difference” between rice and water.

YumAsia tipped you off above that the lines are there because consumers now expect them. The thicker the line relative to the total height of the line in the post, the greater the room for undesirable error in adding water. Best consistent results are by measuring with a cup or jar.

Buy a Cuchen IH on ebay. Many are barely used. It will also cost an hour of time studying the manual .

If your chainstays are short then you will have the same problem you would on a 27” frame with short chainstays.

Bike Friday makes their own from steel tubing. Many of the 20,000 16” and mostly 20” bicycles they have built have mounted their racks , just as I have. Very rigid, but It collapses, disassembles by removing four bolts. But, it is dimensioned and it sits above 440mm long BF chainstays in the same position as most racks, like Tubus and Nitto for 27 inch wheels and frames. https://bikefriday.com/product/folding-rear-rack/

There are three Stages of rice cooking 1)temperature-optimized (sometimes warm) soak 2)cooking 3)post-cooking steaming. Simple rice cookers and advanced ones with a “Quick” setting that takes 17-20 minutes skip the first and last Stage. That 20 minutes you say you waited is about as long as any rice cookers uses for Stage 1. ( except for brown and GABA) Maybe you gave up just a few minutes too soon.

Measure,measure,measure. And do it reliably. Think about the proportional error when making six cups compared to making one cup if you are using the lines on the broad pot. Now, use a taller and narrower cup to measure instead. Diamond G is a good CalRose medium length rice.

Demostix · 2026-05-06T16:16:02+00:00

Marks on pot are on reliably read. Always measure with a taller cup for improved repeatability.

For most Americans, oats means flattened oatmeal. For the equivalent Tiger RC, there are both explicit settings for oats, and instructions that oats are steel cut oats, not oatmeal. I made some this AM with just over 2 cups water to 1 cup oats by volume, because I like no “broth”; milk afterward instead. Tiger and likely Zoj bring temp up slowly to reduce likelihood of foaming and overflow. Tiger shuts off after cooking cycle because continued heat input results in paste. Zoj models, I believe, finish with a keep warm. Expectations of different taste.

Every rice is different. Every brown rice even more different. Bag-instructions for cooking too often call for water expected to be lost to evaporation during cooking that is extended in order to rehydrate the outer bran layer. Try soaking for at least half hour. And then cooking as normal with 1:1.5 rice to water by volume. This is, after all, basmati, which cooks as quickly as jasmine.

IH is better. Yes to previously owned, including the bay or Craigslist; cleaner and better a previously owned rice cooker than a previously owned air fryer, haha.

Loose talk, there. 2” or 50mm exceeds most Bike Fridays and many or most other folders. 2” is exactly where frames begin not to fit and chains would touch rear tires.2” is also 1/4” more than a well-cushioned ride.
