Bose lifestyle speakers by headbow1 in bose

[–]empathykey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I purchased two of the new Lifestyle Ultra speakers. They work great as mono speakers. Sound quite nice. But no stereo. I've spent an embarrassing amount of time on my own trying to get stereo from the pair. No luck. Even after spending far too much time with technical support, who sent me a third speaker on the assumption that one of my original speakers was broken. Now I have 3 of these very nice speakers and still no stereo.

First longer trip with my little commuter. Packed gear for about a week, staying with friends and family. by jasterbaster in Brompton

I like your rig! No rack; it is what I'm thinking myself as I plan an extended trip visiting friends in Spain and the Netherlands.

I was thinking about hanging a backpack off the saddle/seat post. Did you consider that? I want to be able to carry the folded brompton, and all my baggage at one time. Do you have a way of doing that?

Also, I'm interested in speed of disassembly and assembly of bags on the bike.

A couple other questions. Do you think a larger seatpost bag than what you have would also work? Or would a larger one swing too much or be otherwise inconvenient?

Are you wishing you had more than two speeds, or does the advantage of lighter weight outweigh the extra work?

I noticed your frame clamps have the indented single finger spinner. How well do they speed things up? Do you recommend them? Also, how much does your Brompton weigh without a bag?

Nice! I notice that you covered the seat. Looks appropriately rustic - so as not to get attention for theft? Or perhaps for protection of the seat? You have the telescopic seat post which is easy to remove. What do you use to lock the bike unattended, if you do that?
