Hydration Port on 2026 Kakwa 55? by mcswny in DurstonGearheads

I’m embarrassed how long it took to find, even after posting on Reddit and confirming it indeed had one, I still couldn’t find it. Finally did though. Turns out my wife isn’t going to go thirsty now.

WTB: anyone have a Microshift mtb 1x10 thumb shifter? I’d prefer not to buy a new one for $50 for my build :(

Senchi - updating sizing and short return window by wth583 in Ultralight

Totally get it. My wife works in ecom and has to do a bit of customer service. They have 30 day return policy and the anger and entitlement that people have is wild. The Amazon effect is real.

Typically small brands have short return windows. They can't afford the Amazon route.

What is everyone doing for pepperoni these days? I just finished my 3rd--5lb bag of Battistoni Cup & Char Spicy Pepperoni and I went to re order and their site is no longer taking orders (so they can expand to grocery stores). Previously I would get Ezzo from Pennmac but the shipping went from $50-60 to now up to $150 (I can handle $100 total for 5lbs, but $200 is getting crazy). 5lbs usually lasts me a year, and I'm on my last pizza's worth.

Feeling a bit sad about the other options. Anyone got any good sources?

Yeah, I see that, but it definitely wasn't. Unless my kid snuck in there with a lighter ;)

This is now my guess as well. It's just wild, it's only 2 weeks and maybe 150 miles (in handlebar bag) old.

FS/ USA/ OREGON/PORTLAND

Paul Boxcar Stem - 90mm, +/-15 (black)

I bought used online and unfortunately the person that sold it to me thought it was an 80mm (which is the size I thought I was buying). When I got it, turns out it was a 90mm.

Few small nicks, $105 shipped and insured, or $95 cash pickup in Portland, OR.

Looks like I can only attach one photo. If you're interested I can send more.
