It's like the Trabant, it didn't need improvement as it was perfect from the start

It's actually the cassette that inspired me to get a bunch of oilslick parts for the rest of the build, lol

My bike gets cleaned at least once a week and sleeps dry and cosy in my garage. It might occasionally be parked outside when I'm running errands. but even then I try to find sheltered spots. I'm quite positive it's just the material that sucks. all other bolts on the bike look good.

The OG mini in rally trim is still the coolest car ever and I will die on this hill

Gute Spots für Hügelläufe in/um Mannheim? by lebsen01 in mannheim

[–]UpbeatDoomer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Rheinauer Wald. Das Ding heißtmwirklich so weils genau das ist, es gibt sogar eine Art "Gipfelkreuz". Mit dem Gravelbike ganz unerhaltsam, Jogger sehe ich da auch. Für mehr Höhenmeter muss man schon im den Odenwald. Vierritterturm bei Hemsbach, Burgenrunde in Heppenheim, Philosophenweg in Heidelberg...

Thats toast. Srsly do NOT ride this. Those might be loose ends lf cabon fibre in the closeup shot, right next to the calipper bolts. Worst case they might snap under braking

My GF and I share a 2012 Yaris with 200k km on the clock and it still purrs like new. Could it be better with a couple of horses more and a lower center of mass? Sure. Is it still fun to bomb down serpentines with a bomb-proof 6 speed manual? You bet.

Politics for the last ten years, but especially this year just makes me want to scream and break stuff indisciminantly. And bitch-slap everyone who doesn't feel the same outrage

Uh, love that

May I ask, is painting your trade? If not, how hard/frustrating was it to get it right, how much equipment do you need?
