CargoBoard für den Transport von Fahrrädern

Ich habe ein schweres E-Bike (35 kg), das zum Versand in einem Karton (200 cm x 24 cm x 125 cm) verpackt ist. Der Wert des Fahrrads beträgt 4.500 EUR. Ich bin bis zum letzten Schritt gekommen, und dann wurde mir mitgeteilt, dass ich diesen Dienst als Privatperson nicht nutzen kann, da ich auf jegliche Haftung verzichte. Es erscheint sehr merkwürdig, dass diese Information erst ganz am Ende des Bestellvorgangs auftaucht. Wie auch immer – hat jemand diesen Dienst genutzt und entweder auf seine Rechte verzichtet und ihn als Privatperson in Anspruch genommen? Oder hat jemand sein lokales Fahrradgeschäft als „Kunde" auftreten lassen? Oder einen anderen Dienst genutzt, der für Privatpersonen zugänglich ist?

Danke!!

Calling all mouth breathers - dos taping your mouth help your recovery and sleep scores?

I’m thinking of starting since my mouth is open all night and I know this isn’t great for sleeping or oral hygiene, and wondering what others experience was

Just got these cool 3x7 shimano STI brake/shift levers , NOS

Nothing flashy but will be nice on a build for just $40. However they’re a bit gummed up , I guess because they’re old and the lubricant has solidified.

Is wd40 flush the best way to wake them up again?

Thanks

XT V brake arm stiff actuation after cleaning and lubing

The left side is not smooth and actuates in a very cumbersome way in comparison to all other threee arms

I sprayed it down with degreaser , warm water flush, then oiled the pivots but it still isn’t moving smoothly

I get that it’s an old item, problem 30+ years old. But is there a way to bring this back to life ? Will it “work in” over time on the bike ?

Thanks

Where does this mount and what hardware do I need to mount it ?

I assume on a stem? And I guess I have no chance of finding something to clamp it on …. Unfortunately I just got this part in a bin of stuff so don’t know/have more

Anyone else cut off this ugly stand on their Tern Vektron?

I know it’s for supporting when folding but I think I would manage fine without it and it’s a pain getting over the small threshold of my stairs as it constantly smashes it …. Plus it is ugly.

Anyone have luck removing it gracefully ?

Thanks

RumBaba - anyone tried their recent coferments and have brew suggestions?

Filter ? Espresso? I have a Lelit and a V60. They’ve rested for about two weeks now

I don’t get the difference between the two , what’s the incentive to extend today if the device is already free in the first option?

Chain breaker to one of the pins!

The quick release is on the cassette so can’t access that

Tightened axle …. Wheel isn’t rubbing anywhere …. Headset feels ok. Light is working

Thoughts?

Ich möchte ein großes Lastenrad aus den Ebay Kleinanzeigen kaufen, habe aber kein Auto und der Verkäufer versendet nicht. Es befindet sich zwischen zwei Städten in Norddeutschland (das Fahrrad ist wahrscheinlich zu groß für den Zug).
Gibt es einen Transportdienst für so etwas? Ich weiß, dass das teuer wäre, aber ich stelle mir so etwas wie einen Kurierdienst vor, bei dem ein Transporter das Fahrrad für mich abholt und zu meiner Adresse bringt.

Danke !

I saw there’s a new store in Vienna, has anyone brought in an old piece to get repaired ? If so, how was the process? Obviously they don’t repair at the store but I guess they handle the process for you

My roommate wants bagless so prefers to not get the LXT (even though I have LXT batteries ….)

I want to accommodate, but I’m skeptical . Is the CXT decent for simply home use? Small flat nothing heavy duty

Thanks . And tool snobs, please go easy ;)
