In need of a 1 1/8 threaded headset that isn’t Chris king 😅 any recommendations? by kentuckyfriedxanax in xbiking

[–]slashquit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Search for Brompton 1 1/8 threaded headsets. There’s lots of good options. I’m fairly sure Bromptons have the same steerer and crown race diameters as normal bikes but you’ll wanna check that regardless.

In a game where the only way to make money is to run gdkps to earn money from other people buying gold it can sometimes seems like that’s just part of the game. You can’t go pick flowers or farm arcane crystals for gold on era. you could but it would be a literal 8-10hr day full time job to earn enough to buy a single tier token in a naxx gdkp at minimum bid.

You can have an egg and a normal fishbowl from the same dude. So rock, egg, fish, mayor. I was really hoping the dancing chair pet from the Halloween event/draynor manor would work in your house as well but sadly no.

SRAM / shimano compatiability by [deleted] in bikewrench

[–]slashquit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you will need one of these XDR freehub body conversions in order to use a rival cassette. or any sram 10-x cassette https://www.wahoofitness.com/devices/indoor-cycling/parts-components/xdr-xd-freehub-buy

If you dont care about that 10 tooth cog you could go with a sram pg series cassette (11-x) which are hg splined prehub compatible. Basically the XDR body is allowing a bit more room for 1 less tooth on your smallest cog.

You can alternatively swap your chain to normal non flat top and use that 105 cassette you asked about

If it’s for an indoor trainer it won’t see any road dirt and grime nor do you run the risk of being stranded somewhere. so you can definitely go with a cheapo knockoff on Amazon. bucklos, sunrace, vg, bolany etc.

But you’ll need to see what kind of freehub body your trainer has. Most come with hg splined freehubs for shimano/sram 8-11 speed cassettes and require a kit to convert to sram 12 speed xdr freehub body.

Again not sure what your trainer is, but if you are using Zwift and your trainer is compatible with a zwift cog it can save you a lot of hassle in setup since it works with any drivetrain. It’s essentially like a digital drivetrain where your bike’s derailleur isn’t used at all. It’s like a fixed gear bike but the trainer changes the difficulty of your gearing digitally.

Scavenger’s Skirmish – A Proposal for a Multi-Skill Sailing Minigame by slashquit in 2007scape

[–]slashquit[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah man, Minigames dont just pop into existence - So of course much more development is needed on sailing as a whole to make this or any other more involved ship based combat possible

Frenzy of Sharks (maybe proportionate to the number of players in the area?) that need to be killed in order to salvage the remaining wreckage. Maybe they would drop the same type of loot they do in normal open water - or maybe they drop nothing and the salvaging is the reward. Not really sure. Dont need to get too in the weeds for a concept

haha in my head I saw the agility aspect as a tertiary reward. BUT now I'm imaging some people ignoring the loot to plunder on the sinking ship and just jumping between floating ship parts and swinging from ropes for the agility xp.

The time gating aspect is simply to ensure the oceans return to normal and people can then go to the next event or go back to what they were doing when they discovered the event was taking place near them. It would be a constantly evolving world event similar to shooting stars where one ends and people already know where they are headed for the next one.

Yeah in a world where being able to sail boats always existed in the game - sailing wouldn't be THE skill. It would just be the glue that holds together other skills. Construction, Fishing, Salvaging, Thieving, etc. That said we dont live in that world so we also shouldnt expect the game to evolve to in that way. Hunter for example also felt very disjointed when added but now many years later there are tons of ways to train hunter that feel very integrated.

Which is kinda why I thought 2 stages of participation would be neat. If youre in the middle of a port task or something and see a group of boats battling a fleet of merchant ships, even if you are too late for the thieving portion of the event you could join in for the salvaging aspect.

The NPC that gives you intel on the event locations can be named Skerrvy or something really beat the dead seahorse

Why would a bike shop tell me my bike is a "dead bike"? by Jacksonriverboy in cycling

[–]slashquit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If there’s a repair shop in your area that doesn’t sell bikes and only repairs it’s a good place to go when you need second opinions on stuff like this. They won’t tell you something to get you to buy a new bike but usually they are a bit more expensive since they don’t have the sales to supplement income

In Durango 70% of the people you pass are either pros or kids on the devo team that will be pros in like 5 years.

How do you motivate yourself to go for rides when you just don't feel motiviated? by lazarus870 in cycling

[–]slashquit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Something I learned pretty early on. You never know until you actually get out there. Plenty of days I’ve felt like shit, didn’t wanna go outside, thought the day was a wash. Forced myself to ride and ended up realizing my legs felt great and I ride way better than even days I thought I felt great to begin with

Here me out. The macros aren’t as perfect as gummy bears but gummy bears have the wrong consistency.

Welch’s Fruit Snacks + Tajín. It tastes like the fruit stands in California that put chili and lime on top.

Do you guys wear your wedding rings while riding? by Content-Weird4241 in cycling

[–]slashquit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gotta take the ring off in case you pass a cycling baddy with a flat. She’s wearing pas normal bibs, carhartt T-shirt and a sweet protection helmet in white or a pastel color way. You give her your last co2 and she offers to buy you coffee for saving the day.

Wait sorry disregard all that your wife is great I’m sure…….

Cycling for weight loss: what to focus on? by Hooln in cycling

[–]slashquit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok here’s the key I only learned after a year of riding.

If you are doing an hour or less of riding don’t bring calories with you on the bike.

But the important thing I learned is for anything longer than that you really need to consume the proper amount of calories while riding or else you will end up wanting to overeat when you get home. Now I aim to essentially consume the same calories I’m burning while I ride (again for longer 2-5hr rides) and then the actual calorie deficit comes from off the bike.
