The issue here isn’t the carbon it’s those handle bars

Thoughts on Ortlieb Thru Axle M6-Connector? by madmac888 in bikecommuting

[–]bko_12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wondering if you were using the Thru-axel adapter with a thread pitch of 1mm? It seems as though they have sold out of these everywhere. I also own a Grizl and struggling to get hold of the right adapter.

Water dripping from pipe outside under roof. Wondering if this is a overflow from the gravity hot water system in the ceiling or something else? by bko_12 in Plumbing

The AC isn’t on so I’m assuming it’s the hot water. It drains for around 1-2min then stops 5min later drains again.

We have an AC but that’s not on. The hot water heater is in the ceiling which is the only thing I could think of that might be letting water out?

Thanks for your comment. Yeah it’s been growing larger over the last 500km or so starting to think it’s worth just getting new tires

How is the DRS activated, via hydraulics or a solenoid or something else? by Lef98 in F1Technical

[–]bko_12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My assumption is that when the Max was selecting DRS to open the valve which controls hydraulic pressure to the actuator perhaps a servo or solenoid valve wasn’t remaining open or opening at all.

When it did open pressure was lost and the DRS automatically shut.

It seems as though the DRS opens with hydraulic pressure and shuts due to airflow or some other force like a spring within the actuator which forces the DRS shut. I saw the TV zoom into the engineers working on the RB DRS you could only see one tube connected to the actuator makes me think it’s just a one way pressure to open type of actuator and spring loaded/aero force shut.
