And much more entertaining than yet another chain wax thesis.

I know sweet nothing about hollowducks, but I haven't laughed so much on a CC thread for ages!
Oh, I do have a hollowthingmy bb on my genesis, but the mechanic deals with that.

I've given up now. Let's go find that Dutch cycling forum and spam where he posts.

As a CC mod I cannot condone such behavior

Anyone say crispy hollow duck and pancakes ?

He was kicked the "Fiets"forum out several years ago, and continued his stream of complaints on the "MTB forum" (nickname "Nova")

It's all very harmless on this thread, wouldn't want any bans from this stuff.

I've actually enjoyed it. Underneath all the blather there are nuggets of interest.

@silva, are you talking about credit/debit cards that are covered by the ISO/IEC 7810 ID-1 standard?
It dictates the size of the card, and materials, which means it also indirectly dictates their weight. Which for most is 5 grams, metal cards may be slightly heavier.

This standard also applies to ID cards, plastic driving licences and train/bus cards.

No, I talked about a 20 g credit card:

Ridiculous. You could make it hollow and halve that!

I arrived on the "fiets" forum with the question why the chain (then Gusset tank) on my avatar bike twisted to such a degree, after the dealer of the bike answered he had no idea, and that he had never seen such a twisted chain.
The first answer on the forum was a wrong chainline.
I measured front and back using a ruler, and InDeeD, 5 mm wrong.
I found flange spacers on the Velosolo site that the dealer ordered my hub from, ordered myself including a set longer bolts, mounted it myself, problem solved, reported it on the forum. Which some there apparently didn't like.
Likely dealers that don't like customers to discover their botched jobs and fixing these themselves...

Yeah and then it snaps and you have to leave the stuff you wanted to buy at the cashier to then limp back home!

Nay lad, you only mentioned credit cards. I mentioned the ISO standard that covers such cards and you now claim you meant something else. Both posts are there, read what you actually said.

You wish to add to what you said, do so. But I'll tell you again to do your homework before replying.

cut cut cut cut cut.... But I'll tell you again to do your homework before replying.

No, that would spoil the longevity of this historic thread.

It's threads like this that make you appreciate what a fun place the internet can be.
