Congrats - the retail space looks spacious and this particular shot looks like retail Mecca. Space, clean lines, products asking to be browsed and viewed... I wish you many sales and just as many service tickets.

Ik ben jaloers. ou je suis jaloux. Great looking space, looks very usable while still being clean and ergonomic and usable. Pulling for Wout or Mateo (today where you are) (tomorrow, where I type from).

Wait, I recognize your name. Followed you a few times (barely kept up, at my full tilt, given gravitational issues) on S-B at least twice or three times (a long while ago). Totally missed this account. Glad to see you building great spaces to go along with your great riding.

Bike. Singular. That's cute. N+1 is real in my life, but even realer is the fact that I hate dropping bikes from the lineup. I have two hydro bikes right now, one with SRAM Force and an older Spec RockHopper with Tektro Draco... The frameset in the garage is getting Shimano 105 (I'm not...

There's something to be said for keeping the old tools around. I haven't seen this guy before, but I know my shoe repair guys have saved me way more than I've spent at their facilities. Watching the process is pretty cathartic, from what I've found on other channels. -Danner guy.

I'm a home shop kinda guy, so I have yet to find a Park Tool's limitation, but glad to hear there's a high quality alternative around. I can do my own bearings, but its usually not worth the effort to scrounge around for a loaner press, or buy my own when I can pay the shop to get it done in...

What in the HOA fahckery is this? I'd love to see the citation on this. I have no problems letting my neighbors place limits on my behavior - that's how big-boys live in a society with laws. But HOA stories are legendarily nonsense around this page. But letting a couple of hundred people, at...

The alert that you have posted again made me smile. I can't wait to see the new build out and transition of this back into a home-shop.

These old restorations are easily my favorite threads on here. This is a fun one, and so well documented in photos.

And how'd it go? Those open plains get some absolutely (predictable) insane patterns.

I like this Bianchi more than the Italiphile classics... Yes, they're my "braces and acne" years, but nostalgia is real.

Its a projectile during the (hypothetical) crash, no matter what. Whether it comes from the passenger seat, the footwell, my lap, or the back seat, its in the car all summer. I got T-boned to start the summer (at stop sign to mid-intersection speeds), the thing was empty, and it didn't make...

The build is going to be great. You've got a lot on your plate, especially with the remote production. (unsolicited SUV product idea inbound, for selfish reasons) I don't know if it would sell, but I'd definitely try a (seat bracket mounted?) jug holder... Something that puts my Kleen...

Humble brag = "My quads are so massive I just smash!" :LOL: I wouldn't have even measured them! I lie to myself too. But on days I commute and don't take advantage of the gym at the office, I sometimes find the time for a quick hose down and relube with rock and roll gold.

Masked and adding pattern. Kid likes stripes, what can I say. Things got interesting with my rigging to say the least. Kid (10) doesn't want to wait for it to dry, but after I told him there's this and THEN a clear coat, he settled down on pulling the tape today (its 10 minutes to touch/2...
