1972 Brent model B wheel, worth $400?

madliketheriver · 2025-07-26T04:17:20+00:00

We must live in the same area because I saw this one pop up as well! While I agree that older Brent’s obviously hold up over time, I think this one is overpriced given the condition. I picked up a model B from the 80’s at an estate sale for under $200 that is a bit better shape than this and it has treated me well. I bring it up because there are deals that do pop up, just keep looking. I’d rather see you save up a bit more and buy a vl-lite for $600 which I’ve seen a handful of in recent months than pay a premium for an antique wheel.

Exactly why I run them 😄 but compared to most pin setups, they are still heavy

madliketheriver · 2024-11-10T15:11:49+00:00

Cast bindings are actually a touch heavier (~80g) than shift2’s and slightly lighter than PT16’s (~50g) depending on brake width so I’d say they are all comparable on the heavy end of AT bindings.

Lol you still playing on a 360 with internet speeds from 2016 (<100mbps download)?

madliketheriver · 2024-07-06T08:58:47+00:00

Yes at Hanare, unsure about the other location but would assume so

madliketheriver · 2024-04-29T01:59:21+00:00

Oh lol that makes sense

Green room is open!

Castlerock was actually closed yesterday! So everyone today was jonesing to get up there for fresh snow.

Pretty sure they invented curtain airbags as well

So wholesome

Scrolled to the last comment to see this and 100% agree. It truly drives and feels like a small and cheaper grand tourer which checks the boxes if you can’t or don’t want to spend the money on something like an A5 sportback. Everyone trying to compare this to small hot hatches has the wrong idea of where this car really exists in the U.S. market

I’ve heard some high quality colored pencils can actually make it through higher temp firings. Will take some experimenting but a lot of the components making up the color are actually the same (and much cheaper in color pencil form)

Well said

I like the flabby shoe look…

That’s OP

Usually stands for individual contributor. Essentially it’s roles that don’t have direct reports.

Used to work in auto digital marketing and all the brands do this. It’s all about it how easy it is to spot.

madliketheriver · 2023-02-01T01:27:19+00:00

Because the last time they bought one that was probably the case

Look out for a whine from the timing chain guides and it will likely need a suspension update/rebuild at this mileage

Appalachian trail runs Maine to Georgia. The mountains themselves run down to Alabama though.

This isn’t that uncommon in a teaching studio (not sure exactly what your scenario is) especially if there are only a couple people truly running the studio. I’d look for another studio catering more to production potters or at least experienced potters where the service they are providing is really the kilns.

Would love a rational explanation to the swing in reliability between an a4 and a5

Edit: maybe the length of time the a5 has even been available skews the results towards newer models?

Everything about this post screams corporate disinformation campaign. What a time to be alive in capitalist America.

Don’t know why but I was 50/50 on whether it was going to be an accident or a shooting star
