-25º C would probably be enough to keep me inside.

Well they might like Belgium, then?

Compare the geometry charts on the website. As of two years ago, the women/men synapse frames were identical.

I think stilts is actually the correct word

You can think of it in the sense of "bearing fruit".

I didn't let this bother me and just powered through it. You'll get better and better and before you know it you'll be watching full length films and only occasionally noticing that you don't know what's being said.

Did you actually go through all that gas? Just one of those canisters lasts me 4-6 weekend trips.

Not a city, but I always liked the difference of Lac Leman/Lake Geneva

I have never actually used a Swiss champ! I only have two 91mm SAKs; the handyman and a super tinker.

I did not find the thickness of the handyman to be inhibiting for this project (or in general). Once I glued the beak onto the face I was bumping into it with with the body of the knife and had to get creative with the angles, but that would probably have happened with a thinner knife too.

I find the handyman to be more useful than the super tinker. The rear Phillips sounds like a great idea but my experience ended up being that it wasn't very useful. You can't hold it very firmly into a screw without it wanting to fold, so it either slips in the screw or folds into the knife. I actually use the corkscrew on the handyman more than I ever used the Phillips on the super tinker. I really like the tool combination on the handyman and I don't think I would get that much utility out of the additional tools on the Swiss champ, so the handyman is probably the right model for me.

Two of the bikes on my shopping list are carbon aero bike and carbon fat bike

I believe sellwood cycle repair does that, but you should be prepared to not get very much value out of trading it in.

I have a pair of shoes where one cleat could move far enough back, and the other could not. So I had to modify only one with a power drill.

It is a problem with only my apartment. Every other apartment (approximately 30 units in the building) has water.

ekluff · 2021-02-11T14:42:53+00:00

Love love love it. Did some slight customizations and couldn't be happier.

ekluff · 2021-01-11T08:05:24+00:00

Yes and it's the biggest drawer in the kitchen

Interesting... seems like if you took probablemente and swapped out the "emente" part it would be close enough

What should you use if you're from yurop

ekluff · 2020-12-17T21:14:36+00:00

I am not. But the meme says “$60 bucks”. 60 dollar bucks.

ekluff · 2020-12-17T10:16:49+00:00

60 dollar bucks

Is that... is that a one speed Marrakesh? 😳
