i went back to tubes on all bikes at the end of covid, working in a bike shop and having to deal with customers' problems and mine was enough for me to go back to the old ways. replacing a tube or patching one really isn't that hard.
*making sure...
try making the tyre stays in the middle of rim when mounting a tyre, it'll make it a lot easier to fit.
more crater than pothole
never used spotify, always been on apple music. i'm good thanks, how's you?

@ternbicycles.bsky.social Orox in it's element today on a rare snowy day in the uk.
used the demo brompton g line to get me home tonight, didn't fancy getting a wet arse commuting on my mtb!
remember Andrew Dodd putting that tip in an mbuk issue many years back.
think i can probably get on board with that, even do my shopping on one of my emtbsπ
i did, lot of fun!
again filled with tools after returning from fixing a customer's cargo bike
my tern orox filled with a bike and bike bits!
not heard of them but if they're making sizes below 38cm then i'm interested too.
got my coil shock fitted, forgotten how much they stick the back end to the floor!
makes me anxiousπ
not quite the ride i was hoping for, bailing out early, head's not in the right place
