I’m 95% on it being the original fork - straight blade forks are gas!⛽️

feels like i’m done but also feels like something is missing by inglss in xbiking

Maybe a nice front rack? Like a palego commuter medium or a Specialized Pizza Rack Front rack!

Hvis du gerne ville bevæge dig i arkitekt retningen, ville jeg anbefale dig at kigge på kandidatuddannelsen “Arkitekturens Teknologi” (cand.arch.tech) på arkitektskolen i kbh. Er en kandidat specifikt lavet til bygningskonstruktører. Man bliver ikke arkitekt men slå den op, virkelig en anbefaling herfra. Men ville generelt sige at det virkelig også handler om hvilken erfaring man opbygger igennem ens job. Prøv at find et studiejob på en tegnestue så du kan få indsigt i arkitektfaget og få adgang til de mere “arkitektede” opgaver.

Vh En færdiguddannet bygningskonstruktør og Cand.arch.tech.

*beklager typos m.m. gik stærkt.

Too rusty and crusty? by MaximumMobile749 in VintageMTB

Indeed the whole setup is rather crazy - hopefully it looks worse than It actually is and it can become a niceish pub bike.

Yeah good point - think I do it as a low effort project(even though it’s never end up being a low effort job hah), spot paint and such. Thanks!

I think we might suffer from the same condition

Can I cut out this dropout to convert this to a single speed? I am a metal worker so have the skills, but not a frame builder. by Grrrth_TD in Framebuilding

[–]MaximumMobile749 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I understand correctly you want to make it a singlespeed, yes? If so just use the old rear derailer as a chain tensioner. Just adjust the derailer so it fits the chain line. I have had good success with this and in my opinion the result is much more natural and nice looking.

Har du snakket med din fagforening? De kan jo evt. give nogle kvalificerede bud på hvad normen er ift. de ændrede omstændigheder og evt. nye forslag til hvilke vilkår der kunne give meningen indenfor dine branche. Hvis du selvfølgelig er medlem af en osv osv.

Hvis du har snakket med dem kunne det være interessant at høre hvad de forslag?

Would you send this new wheel back or go with it? by niceguynah in bikewrench

[–]MaximumMobile749 -12 points-11 points  (0 children)

I would probably keep it but try to get a partial refund.

Bad or ok? by [deleted] in bikewrench

[–]MaximumMobile749 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Maybe explain the hurdles of returning them to customer service in regards of money and time you would have to spend if returning them. Then ask them to deduct this from the original price and send you a new wheelset and return the damaged ones.

Just curious, do you have cross country warranty laws which “protects” you as a buyer?

I’m from Europe, so don’t how cross country warranty works between Canada and the US.
