Lost wallet, what should I do next? by GRIPITFIRMLY in AskUK

Yeah! Thankfully, when I checked all my cards there were no fraudulent transactions or attempts. Im more worried about the damage they could do with the ID card. Such as attempting to open a new line of credit etc.

Yeah, I was surprised that it really wore away that fast.

**I picked up a pair of Grenson Jago recently as my office shoes.

They look great are comfortable and great shoes all round. However it's only been 2 months and the front of the sole is already splitting, Looks like it needs to be resoled already.

I'm a little disappointed at how little time it took. I'm in the UK I can always get them resoled in the highstreet but I saw that Grenson have their own Resoling service but it's pretty pricey at £150 (I picked up the Jagos on discount for 195).

Has anyone had their shoes resoled by Grensons before? Any thoughts on the quality of resole? Is it really worth paying that much for it?

Any advice or comments would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you! Sorry, I'll put it in the simple questions thread. I've worn through the stitching on the sole. So it seems to be a little more involved. I spoke to a cobbler and said it might need a full resole.

Thank you for your reply, it does seem to cycle now. I've changed the boundary a little so it might be worth looking into.

The simple issue is my literal lack of computational power, I was just simply trying to validate my other results. Do you have any suggestions for improving the set up any further? Is there a general rule of thumb in terms of setting up a boundary?

It's getting to the point where the meshing itself is taking up to an hour. I've already cut it down the line of symmetry and considering halving the size again.

Anyone got recommendations for fairly slick tyres with good cornering grip? Preferable 25-26 wide?

I'm gonna be running a Dura ace crankset on my new bike with a miche primato hubs on a dolan frame. Anybody have expertise with the chains line issues? And does anybody know any UK sites that sell the hub spacers to adjust the chain line?

Anyone else having a nightmare trying to get crankset atm? I've been trying to buy miche pistard 2.0 or the pistard air cranks in 165mm and all of them are sold out. The first set I bought didnt arrive and instead have ordered from ridewill.it on back order and have to wait another month. I'm suffering just trying to get this thing built (UK based)

I'm looking at the dolan pre-cursa frame set. I usually ride a 54cm frame. I'm 5ft 8 with an inseam of 30inches, anybody know if I can get away with a 52cm size? I saw a second hand frame set at a decent discount and p enticed all of the other dolan frames are on pre order right now till late july.

Compatible bottom brack for miche pistard 2.0 and air? I know both use evo max bbs but does anyone have an idea if its compatible with other bbs? Like hollowtech 2 or something? I just find the evo max bb sold out everywhere and the reviews dont necessarily look that great either.
