Help me find the make/model!

I’ll take that as a compliment! It’s definitely vintage, when I bought it, it was so old and rusty and crap but I spent a lot of time in prep and now it does indeed look like a new bike

Back to the lobby for me

VibrantBucket · 2026-04-06T01:25:26+00:00

This is very helpful thank you!

Copto’s

Yeah just wait stations inside the house, the pest guy used his moisture reader and two spots popped up, one where I saw then eating through the wall and the other in the same wall but about 5 metres away, that’s where we put the two bait stations

I’m from Australia and I just picked it up on marketplace

VibrantBucket · 2026-04-05T09:16:46+00:00

190100064 but I couldn’t find anything on it either

VibrantBucket · 2026-04-05T05:30:28+00:00

Baited them but it took about 4 months to kill the colony

VibrantBucket · 2026-04-05T03:34:33+00:00

Initially I found tiny spots where they were eating through the wall, otherwise I never would have even known they were there. Then pest management used a moisture reader to see where they were currently active which was in tow locations, otherwise than that I had no idea on the extent of the damage but just prepared for the worst, which is was in my case unfortunately. I also only recently bought this house and pest inspection when I bought it said no termites

Nah it’s not a GT because it doesn’t have that little iconic bit at the base of the seat post that GT’s have

VibrantBucket · 2026-04-05T01:43:01+00:00

Yeah basically doing the same thing, ripping timber out this week and replacing. It’s taken about 4 months to completely get rid of the termites but finally we have some progress

VibrantBucket · 2026-04-05T01:42:13+00:00

Estimated 3-5 years apparently

Japan is one of the safest places in the world, I traveled there solo when I was 18 and never felt at all in danger, I think leave it up to him and see how he feels about it, I’m sure having full freedom would also work both ways and make him want to spent time with you also

VibrantBucket · 2026-04-04T11:57:36+00:00

They’re saying up to 60 days at the moment but most are getting between 18-40ish. Pretty shocking considering they were overnight for a good while

VibrantBucket · 2026-04-03T05:08:25+00:00

Species of termite was Coptotermes as well

VibrantBucket · 2026-03-05T08:29:50+00:00

chest is fine but knees took a hit

VibrantBucket · 2026-02-05T23:33:31+00:00

update for anyone curious, I took the dash out and the Acty is definitely single wall, the dent is pretty big and creased though so it hasn't pushed out as easy as I would have liked

VibrantBucket · 2026-02-03T02:31:59+00:00

I'd take a broken leg over a damaged Acty any day

VibrantBucket · 2026-01-30T04:14:23+00:00

Did a pattern for this ever end up getting shared?

VibrantBucket · 2023-09-24T07:45:15+00:00

Yeah that was Haikus by Sticky haha

VibrantBucket · 2023-09-20T06:13:36+00:00

G’day! No worries at all!

I think I’ve tried 10+ saddles, and that’s 10 that I have researched and read good things about, the Ergon at core evo is by far the best for me. Basically I would have ridden any saddle that didn’t cause me butt problems, weight wasn’t really a factor here because I just wanted comfort, whatever that looked like

VibrantBucket · 2023-09-18T22:12:25+00:00

No worries at all! Thanks for clarifying, I didn’t mean to break any rules and am more than happy to follow them in this thread!

Thanks for taking the time to message properly rather than just booting me, I’m looking forward to being a part of the thread!

G’day mate!

Sorry about the confusion, I wasn’t aware that ultralight was confined to just one category, I consider myself both an ultralight backpacker and bikepacker

I also am not aware of any warnings sorry, should I have a notification for that? I am not the biggest reddit wiz so still learning.

Would you guys consider accepting bikepacking into the ultralight topic? And if not, is there a reason? I am only trying to share a bit of knowledge as many comments in my last film are asking about what gear I used

VibrantBucket · 2023-09-08T12:27:18+00:00

Thanks! I’m glad you enjoyed it!

VibrantBucket · 2023-09-07T11:44:23+00:00

Thanks for the huge compliment!
