Speed Pack 30L AliExpress

Hey all. If this isn’t allowed, please delete. But I’m a recent an On Running convert, and the Speed Packs caught my eye. But they’re $230 CAD, which with tax comes up to about $260. Of course, with surveillance pricing and shopping, AliExpress moved the duplicate bags with blurred logos to the my front page. And with the recent sales, it came out to be about $60 (25%Rakuten, AliExpress coupons, and PayPal discount) so I thought I’d give it a try. Now, I don’t have a legit bag to compare it to, but it looks like an AliExpress Aer quality duplicate, meaning good. Would recommend at 1/4 the cost of the legit version.

Would you attach a WeRide CoPilot to a carbon bike with carbon seat post?

Desperately trying to get down to one bike, rather than two, and currently love my Vanhawks Valour which I got for a steal (less than $500CAD new), but still have a six year old that needs to be on a ride on for longer rides (she's good at riding her own bike, but she's not going 20km in city traffic). Can I attach this to the seat post on the Vanhawks, or is it dangerous? I'm not fussed if it might damage the seat post itself but am concerned about safety. Thanks for your input.

Can someone help explain WTF is going on with reselling tickets (esp via a Ticketmaster) right now?

Okay, I honestly have no idea what is happening right with with resale right now. Let’s use tomorrow’s Noah Kahan concert as an example. I have tickets already. Ticketmaster sends me an email with this note: “No Resale Over Face Value
Noah Kahan is using Ticketmaster's Face Value Exchange to help fans get tickets at the original price. Tickets will be non-transferable and can only be resold on Ticketmaster at face value.”
This seems to imply that you can’t transfer your tickets outside of a Ticketmaster sale, but this seems insane. And, there are no tickets on Ticketmaster. Is that because they get sold as fast as they’re listed? Or nobody is selling them there since Ticketmaster is taking a cut and they’re losing money? Are people mostly selling via different platforms, and is that a problem?

StubHub is offering very few tickets to events, and they’re very expansive. Obviously a ton over face value. But I thought this was illegal?

Basically, I’m wondering where all the tickets have gone! It seems like they’ve either (1) made it more difficult to sell and buy tickets (2) made all of the resale go underground (but what about the no transfer condition?) or (3) people are just keeping their tickets since no money can really be made.

If anyone has a link to an article or can explain what the situation is please let me know.
