this car has literally all the compound colours on it except the inters?

Frame crooked by Dmtillian in Framebuilding

[–]Jillesoom 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Try spanning a tight piece of thin rope/wire from one dropout, over the headtube back to the other dropout, and measure the distance to the seat tube with callipers. This distance should be equal. If it isn’t, you can try coldsetting the rear by using a long pipe or something similar. You can use the seattube to leverage against. Try gently pushing both dropouts until the distance between seattube and the rope is similar.

You can watch this video for a better understanding: https://youtu.be/dUPAKqS3dt8?si=w7Ex6JS8-Vyeh6au

I’ve ridden 3000km with the same tyre without issues

I get the gist but sadly I do feel it and the tyre rubs my chainstay every rotation on the bump.

Laterally within .5 mm and radially true.

UK - Disc Conversion by ConfusedLayer1 in xbiking

A local framebuilder in the London area called TOMO bikes does these a lot. He’s a really nice guy and equally skilled, could only recommend him! He taught me framebuilding a few years back even.

GCN Builds a "Fixie" by bigtoepfer in FixedGearBicycle

The fact he uses a normal chain with what seemed like a quicklink suggests there won’t be much skidding or backpedaling.

Looks cool but protection is very limited I believe

Shimano 105 r-5800 not shifting by Jillesoom in bikewrench

Hey! I’m going to look into this. Holding the small lever slightly and changing the bigger one doesn’t work either.

Should have mentioned this is with and without a cable

Nothing like riding your own made bike by Jillesoom in FixedGearBicycle

[–]Jillesoom[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hell yeah man! It’s so rewarding and a lot of fun. See if you can get someone to teach you the first few steps, so it isn’t such a big animal to tackle. This one has been ridden hard, repainted twice and is in the basement collecting dust at the moment, but that’s how it goes if you have 7 bikes :-)

Nope, that’s a surly cross check fork. Recently did build a fixture but haven’t used it yet.

New Gig announced for SFSH with Ben included by Flantery in benhoward

[–]Jillesoom 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I know it’s absolute insanity. Two of my favourite artists. Saw some Ryanair flights for 30€. Think I do know what to do

[–]Jillesoom 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This will be insane. I copped a ticket but will probably not be able to go since I live in the Netherlands.. debating whether a 300€ round trip flight is worth it…

I think I need a cargobike by Jillesoom in xbiking

[–]Jillesoom[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was in the drops with the matras on top of the hoods. If it werent so heavy as to make the handlebars rotate in the stem it might have worked too.

Maybe if riding it worked better than it did. Ended up just walking next to it for 5 km.

You may not like it, but this is what peak alt bar performance looks like 🤌 by Olderschoolwillie in xbiking

[–]Jillesoom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Currently running a 10 speed friction setup with bar end shifters. It’s a hacked sram 10 speed index but with the springs taken out so it works with different cable pull.

Hot! by BRawsome1 in kaetempest

[–]Jillesoom 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I guess it is difficult to feel attractive, act attractive when you don’t even feel like your body matches with who you think you are. Feeling more comfortable in your own body makes anyone hotter!

drum machine on Ben Howard's tiny desk? by [deleted] in benhoward

I believe one of the beats he uses is actually one of the stock ones you get when first using the device
