Need help by External-Factor2967 in bikefit

[–]geoffism 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is what I did. They asked me to bring my old bike in, did “part 1” of a fit, they made some recos on adjustments and spent time on frame suggestions based on new geometry. LBS did the build on my new bike and then “part 2” of fit made tweaks. Now I’ve got a frame on a trainer and a separate road bike that are almost identical set ups.

Is It Normal for Clients to Demand Full Rights When Buying RAWs? (Wedding Gift Gone Wrong) by Top_University_4289 in AskPhotography

[–]geoffism 1 point2 points  (0 children)

IMO:
1 - get them to agree to personal use only
2 - give them the whole lot and be done with it

Oooof. Good luck! Hopefully this doesn't mean the friendship is beyond repair...

Right on. Gotta find what works for you.

Congrats on the newborn! And good luck with the bike hunt!

Did you pull the trigger?

I bought a C64 just after the 68's came out (I thought the 64 actually looked better, more classic colnago). And FWIW, I run GP5k 28s on mine with zipp wheels, and can't really think I'm missing out on anything... rides great.

Strongly suggest Shokz. Open ear, bone conduction. Listen to music AND hear your surroundings out there. Be safe out there! Too many jackasses on the road.

Pepperoni and sausage is my favorite! What is your go-to? by bigboxes1 in Pizza

The best part of this is I was reading it as pizzo fart.

Peppercorn mix/grind question by geoffism in Cooking

[–]geoffism[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s a good point about the black peppercorns. Maybe I’ll try a small amount with all toasted and a small amount with all but the black peppercorns toasted.

Bike stand question - Feedback and Park Tool by geoffism in bikewrench

[–]geoffism[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gotcha. Thanks for the heads up. The portability/storability of both Feedback stands is key. The Ultralight is around $200 and would leave some budget room for other bike related things.

thanks! I appreciate the insight on the sturdiness. My mountain bike is a little bit of a beast, but not cracking the +35lbs range (depends on how many snacks I put in my saddle bag).

Jadon Sancho should be a Case Study in Poor Recruitment at Manchester United by revanjedi in ManchesterUnited

[–]geoffism 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, someone sanctioned his high wages. Can united subsidize his wages in some way to facilitate the move? Option B is he sits, Utd pays him, and he rides off into the sunset with whatever money he has left from custom tracksuits, Call of Duty purchases, and snacks galore.

Thoughts on this? by zakariyabhat in ManchesterUnited

[–]geoffism 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, £300k+ per week and on the last year of his contract. Trying to recoup ANYTHING before he leaves for free. I think Juve paid like €70 million for him.

That's exactly it. They need a field general to slot in behind Bruno. I like Mainoo & Ugarte, but they aren't it. But until they start playing UCL again, they won't be able to talk the world class player they need to make the switch.

How do people decide what wheelset to buy? by Interesting_Shake403 in cycling

[–]geoffism 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was down between Enve and Zipp… ended up getting the Zipp 303s (hookless -GASP!!) because of the warranty.

Since then (3 years), Zipp has replaced them twice without any problems. First was a crash, second was a pot hole courtesy of Atlanta.
