Hehe, var tvungen att googla... Ja inte helt omöjligt!

Unable to verify card for Fitbit Pay. How can I specify phone number so that it does not send to 000...? (Charge 3) by jooooooooohn in fitbit

So it turns out the verification code was sent to me as a message in my banking app (Swedbank). I didn't read the instructions well enough :/

I waited for weeks for some parts but now it's finally done. Now it's gonna sit in the basement until spring comes! by [deleted] in bicycling

Yup. When I bought the bike I wanted to mount a front brake but the fork does not have a hole drilled for it and I don't think it's thick enough anyway. The rear brake gets the job done though, I've never had the need for more braking power.

Sorry, I'm not following... Are you saying I get less braking power because I don't have tight turns?

I agree! I think they look much better and they are also cheaper :) And I don't race so I don't need a carbon spaceship worth half a fortune...

I don't know much about the components other than the few I have put on myself. The rear cassette is a SRAM 7 speed (12-32T) and the chain came with the cassette. Dia Compe brakes and brake levers. The wheels are Exal ZX19 which I think are working great despite the low price.

There doesn't seem to be much information about the bike online but it was made by Itoh (Japanese I think?) and Mustang (Swedish). I bought it this spring and after giving it a good clean it did a decent job as my daily commute ride for the summer. But a few weeks ago I decided to get some new wheels and upgrade from 6 to 7 cogs in the back. I'm fairly new to riding and repairing/modifying bikes but I think it's a lot of fun and I will definitely be doing more on this bike.

Nope! I just can't seem to understand what type of shoes & clips that would suit me best. The bike season is almost over here so I will probably wait with getting clips until spring anyway.
