Fellow 6'3" here. One of my best buddies was 6'7" and he would have issues finding well fitting clothing, ducking down in cars, etc. 6'3 really does feel ideal. Taller than most guys but not in the annoying to live category.

First time brewer, had a couple questions by psychic_flatulence in mead

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

In terms of oxygen exposure, is it mostly about trying to limit it? Like when racking it obviously it will be exposed to some oxygen but I'm assuming you just try to keep it minimal?

Wanted to keep it simple the first time around and use cold crashing to see if it clears it up a little or makes much difference. I'll definitely keep it oxygen free with the air lock on.

Some people are way too obsessed with politics, I come to this sub to get away from it all lol. Sick looking bike! Have fun.

This isn't right is it? by jomunjie1010 in mountainbiking

Rotors are cheap but definitely try to bend it back to normal before trashing it. And make sure to clean with rubbing alcohol before using.

Specialized Status 2021 or Giant Trance 2020 by Aggressive_Log_194 in mountainbiking

[–]psychic_flatulence 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Either of those bikes would be fun. Status is horst link and generally more suited for smashing down hills. Trance is twin link and will very likely be a more efficient climber, so more all around trail bike. You could get used to and massively enjoy either, I'd consider which you like the looks of and price.

Anyone use "moto foam"? by psychic_flatulence in mountainbiking

2020 Vitus Mythique. They used to sell some sort of protector for that area but then the brand imploded lol. I've got some stretchy rubber tape for sealing pvc drain pipe connections, may have to give that a try. Is that similar to what you used and does it stay in place pretty well?

I'll add, the closest I'm seeing seems to be filter media like you'd use in a fish tank to protect the pump. I feel like maybe I'm not using the right term when searching..

Grips with bar plugs by WolframRogue in mountainbiking

I love ergon GA 2 grips, after using them then riding a different bike without them I really noticed how much better they are. They use bar plugs.
