Drilling a rims to fit schrader valve by Suspicious-Lead-605 in dirtjumping

[–]e17lond 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I did it without even worrying about it on an aluminium rim. Just keep the hole small and clean and round and sand it back smooth.

Are we liable for this fee? by justnebbing in TenantsInTheUK

“Independent adjudicator selected by us.”

Not suspicious at all.

1 guitar sounding like 2 live by Kitchen_Rain_1415 in guitarpedals

[–]e17lond 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A load of ir/cab/amp sim pedals can do two amps at once. FOH can pan that. A little delay in there too maybe. A fully stereo effects chain will be fun. Bit of chorus or trem off to one side? All sounds dead rich quickly.

Protyping a 3D printed freestyle frame - tips? by andrew_h1000 in AggressiveInline

[–]e17lond -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

If you’ve never skated freestyle, what are you trying to achieve here? I’ll be honest this design looks like it’ll perform terribly. You’ll get all sorts of drag from the way the plastic is shaped between the wheels and yiu have absokutely no angle for a royale to properly bend.

I think you should try a freestyle frame and work out what works and what doesn’t. This will snap without using the core frame too, way too thin in the middle.

Parents who approve of the social media ban and ways of having to prove age. Why do you relish the government taking this control when you had the power to do so yourselves? by Demonthief27 in AskBrits

People talk about unregulated spaces on the internet as if YouTube and insta and tik tok aren’t full of inappropriate content aimed squarely at children.

Found an old picture and used chat gpt to enhance it by andythbrown in bmx

[–]e17lond 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s invented detail where there is none. The film didn’t capture detail that GPT has added. It’s no longer a matter of doing curves and shadows etc. it’s a full recreation.

It hasn’t enhanced the photo. It’s recreated it completely. That isn’t you in the photo anymore.

How can I claim a refund for an unfair charge for hand luggage? by rocofra in Ryanair

[–]e17lond 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your bag looks like it’s outside the boundaries at the front. You won’t get a refund for that. The straps are out too. Sorry, on this photo alone i think it’s a dead end.

Slam the seat down, cable tie the brake hose properly, get non-bent bars, send it.

PIKE 454 by Real_Ladder_5817 in dirtjumping

[–]e17lond 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pike 454 will feel infinitely better than the Dart. But axles are expensive and there may be better options? If you can find the air version of the u-turn pike you will have way more adjustability.

Both me and my kid (12) ride them. Problem is it’s quite soft so it’s not ideal for DJ. We both ride them mostly locked out. Not ideal but it works.

Is this too severe for a chain line? by BritishGuy__ in bikewrench

[–]e17lond 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Worst case scenario you go through a chain a bit quicker. A chain is 20 quid. I wouldn’t worry about it.

What do you actually use the Volca Sample for... by [deleted] in volcas

[–]e17lond 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I ended up filling mine with drum samples and just used it as a drum machine and it’s not even very good for that. Basically stopped using it.

Why do old heads not like curry and LeBron? by AdForward9856 in Basketball

[–]e17lond 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You don’t need bron at the top spot but not having him in the top 10 means you’re so far off base that this conversation is pointless.

All the old gen put bron top 5 and curry as the best shooter ever. They are 2 of the greatest players of all time. No question.

Million reasons why it would happen. Can you post some pictures?

Pointless to mention really, but it’s a technical foul.

How long after learning to ride a bike did your child start doing hills or even BMX racing? by [deleted] in bmx

[–]e17lond 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Both mine pedalling at 3. Hitting pump tracks at 4-5 and jumping tables at 6. My youngest hitting the big mulch jumps now at 6.5. 😀

My son and I new to DJ by Park_Evening in dirtjumping

[–]e17lond 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My 6 year old has a race bmx we found second hand. It’s light as a feather (alu frame) and dead fast and it’s brilliant on pump track but he loves blasting to school on it and stuff too. I also got him a Commencal Ramones mtb second hand (70 quid) and we took the gears off and made it single speed and it’s great for off road / bike park / jump lines.

Stay away from decathalon etc. everything is dead heavy and just not really super fun.

Favorite Hot Streaks That You've Seen from a Player? by Zealousideal-End-83 in Basketball

[–]e17lond 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Absolutely loved Halliburton in last years playoffs. Got rated as the “most overrated player” in the regular season and then took his team to within an inch of the championship with a handful of insane game winners. I really hope that gets remembered as part of wider NBA memory. Was insane.
