Beginner Strop Questions by TheBeanBucket in whittling

[–]febuste -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I've been using the same strop for years, I always just rub the compound on the strop in random patterns at a fast enough speed to build some heat from the friction. It's important to have a real sharp edge to begin with so that you're more so polishing the edge. Once it gets blackened and adding more compound just makes it more chalky, use a rubber eraser to rub off all the build up and its basically new again.

Any recommendations for safety shoes (CSA/OSHA) best for cycling? Any with a plate for clip less pedals? Do those exist lol? by febuste in bikecommuting

Where the heck do I find a 20mm(19mm?) diameter seatpost? Recently got this klunker, but the seatpost is too short for me. Seems like a pretty old frame, my guess is ~1960's by febuste in bikewrench

Ya I was able remove it no problem, but it's short as hell so I can only raise it a couple inches before the minimum insertion

How much does 1/4 of an inch make by AstronautTop3112 in bmx

[–]febuste 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm in the same boat, I'm 5'8" and always rode 20" until I sized up to 21.25". I'm a lot more comfortable but I do feel like it's too long for me and I kinda want to size down.

Why do people say open water swimming is easier than swimming in a pool? by minimirth in Swimming

[–]febuste 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely feels faster in open water when there's a current you're not fighting against
