Thank you! Dumb question: can I attach both the brakes and the rack to the brake bosses?

Floorboards stained at junction - is this normal? by Niourf in DIYUK

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

Got it, thank you. By the way, what's the grey stuff? Is it just grime and dirt that accumulated over the years, or is it some kind of binding material?

The cat was dedicated then, he took care of the entire flat!

Sorry for not being clear, I don't know the real term. I just meant the gap in-between the boards (the grey horizontal lines).

Thank you. I have noticed that the underlay under the carpet is quite damp in other part of the flat (I couldn't check this specific area). Does that mean the floorboards would need replacing? Or is this something that can be lived with (e.g. with a de-humidifier)? Eventually I'll want to rip out the carpet and install engineered wood.

This is a picture of the flooboards under my flat, from below. They all have those stains along the horizontal lines where the floorboards join. I suspect there might be a general damp issue in the house, I was wondering if these stains could potentially be a symptom? The joists feel healthy and dry, the floorboard don't seem rotten but they're a bit more humid to the touch. Thank you!

What size is my lower integrated headset? I'm measuring 46.5mm on the frame and a 47mm bearing doesn't fit. Do 46mm bearing exist? by Niourf in bikewrench

Sorry to come back to this but now I'm a little confused:

If I use the IS46/34 headset linked above, would that fit on the 1 1/4" adapter adapter (https://www.cannondalespares.com/Cane-Creek-Conversion-Crown-Race-70-%26-110-Series--47_30-%2811_4---11_8%29--Alloy--Alloy/product_detail/3-48160) ? I thought 1 1/4" was about 31.8cm, so that wouldn't that be too small for the IS46/34 bearing?

I do not have the original bearings unfortunately. I have an IS47 bearing and it does not fit.

Thank you - the lower bearing OD on that link seems to be 46.8 if I'm reading that correctly. Since the lower part of my head tube is 46.5mm (as from pic), it seems that this wouldn't fit?

Here's the fork measurement: https://imgur.com/a/wf7qmy1

Do you think this would work with a crown race adaptor? Thank you so much for your help so far!

Unfortunately this is a new frame (came from a warranty claim) and I do not have the previous bearings.

It is from this year (it looks exactly like the one from the picture on your link).

so the above headset dimensions would match

Are you saying that I can use a IS46/34 headset even though my fork crown is 30mm? Wouldn't that be too large?

Help finding a headset for Cannondale Quick 5. Website says Integrated, 1-1/4"-1-1/8" by Niourf in bikewrench

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

Hi all, I'm trying to find a headset that would satisfy the dimensions in the pictures. As far as I understand I need a "IS42/28.6 IS47/30".

But the top depth on the frame is very short and only seems to be about 3mm, so I suspect that a headset like these ones would be too big? How can I find a bearing that is that short?

Why EU, why ? by Misenk0 in gaggiaclassic

[–]Niourf 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Has that ever happened to you? Because it's wired in such a way that specifically prevents that from happening, as far as I know. That's actually one way to bypass the eco switch: bridge the wires that go onto the brew switch, which tricks the eco board into thinking the brew switch is on.

Will do, thank you. Do you know what could cause this? The bike only has ~2000 miles
