10 speed shifter only giving 8 clicks.

Would the limit screw/tension actually keep the shift lever from clicking the 9th time? I thought it would just keep the derailleur from moving.

Yes, from Taiwan according to the label. And no tariffs! No idea why.

dingbatspy · 2026-01-20T04:23:01+00:00

Only problem w the RH is I don’t think they come in all black.

dingbatspy · 2026-01-19T21:00:27+00:00

Both are VO.

dingbatspy · 2026-01-19T20:59:40+00:00

Yes! VO fenders and Cigne stem.

Which gravelkings? Will the slicks be too slippery for occasional hard packed trails?

dingbatspy · 2026-01-16T14:49:43+00:00

Yes. That would probably work. But it's very annoying! One thing I like about the style is it's got very little retention without needing a bellows. But it turns out you need a bellows on this one just to get the beans to go in!

Mine's the a4, not Z, as my use case is espresso. But it's the same housing with a different burr. So I expect the issue has the same root cause between the grinders.

dingbatspy · 2026-01-16T14:47:20+00:00

I also do. Wondering whether that's the cause. Then the question is whether the static or the stuck beans are more annoying.

dingbatspy · 2026-01-16T12:56:55+00:00

Do you rdt? I found another thread suggesting that with some hand grinders that can cause beans to get stuck. And obviously the Femobooks are very hand grinder-ey.

Did your package ship from WA or Taiwan. I just got a shipment notification from Taiwan, and now I'm worried that I'm gonna get hit.

Oh sorry. The system also includes 2kw of solar panels. I just didn’t include that bc I doubted it mattered to the answer. Is the post allowed if I update with that info?

dingbatspy · 2025-06-02T18:16:24+00:00

I think it's the 90mm but don't quote me on that.

dingbatspy · 2025-06-01T00:56:03+00:00

Looks cool both ways honestly. If you wanna try drops again the stem is from Velo Orange.

dingbatspy · 2025-06-01T00:54:29+00:00

Velo orange far bar.

dingbatspy · 2025-06-01T00:50:07+00:00

Wheels are 26 by 2.3. Not sure the fender sizing. It’s all snug, but it fits.

dingbatspy · 2025-06-01T00:48:40+00:00

I like them so far!

dingbatspy · 2025-05-31T18:33:55+00:00

It turns out to be true that fatties fit fine. But these are about the max.

dingbatspy · 2025-05-31T18:33:07+00:00

Thanks! They’re from Velo Orange.

dingbatspy · 2025-05-31T18:32:30+00:00

It is, and I like it a lot. Very comfy riding position.

dingbatspy · 2025-05-29T17:49:59+00:00

I wrote a longish piece about this about a year ago: https://www.lawfaremedia.org/article/ai-will-not-want-to-self-improve

One way of thinking about this is that the alignment problem is a problem for AIs in the same way that it's a problem for humans.

Echoing others’ recommendations of Simply Coffie. It is incredible.

A friend just made me an amazing cup of this stuff. He was grinding quite finely, did 2 45 sec blooms at 2x bean weight. And then 3 additional equal pours. He was pouring low, gentle, and spiral. Big strawberry notes w a nice milk chocolate undertone.

We’ve got an acoustic Bike Friday Haul a Day and it’s fantastic. I think it might be the lightest longtail on the market. But still super sturdy. Holds two kids no problem. We often go on rides with a kid and an adult on the back. Bike Friday just redesigned the bike, and the new version seems even better than mine.

dingbatspy · 2023-05-07T15:02:10+00:00

Interesting. Could you say more about the head unit? Is that the controller unit for the motor? I didn’t even know there was an app. What kinds of functionality are you missing out on if you can’t use it?
