    The not-so-handy handyman and other randomness

    Ek dink ook so. Boere in een area noem 'n boom een ding en dan kom jy in 'n ander area en dieselfde ding het 'n ander naam.

    Toll fee solution

    Also nice when you get to the toll gate and all the lanes have long queues but the e-toll only lane is clear.

    Why would half decent crossovers be so expensive? Can't imagine that the individual parts can cost much.

    Regarding those screwdriver handles: Could you make one with a bit driver similar to one of these. Maybe the one on the left sticking out only 1cm and then one can use one of the extenders of your choice on the right

    The not-so-handy handyman and other randomness

    As D said: Why replace it? I think places like Communica has pre built stuff for cross over circuits. From cheap to very expensive stuff. Long time ago I built some speakers and got some kitchen counter laminate which could be glued onto the wooden box. If I was in your shoes I might have...

    o_O Did you buy them in Melbourne? Also over about R1,000 each? That 150mm looks like a good size for a minimalistic enduro bike toolkit.

    Tubeless Conversion Advice

    Very true. Everyone mention that lip but I have heard of many more tubed tyres and tubeless tyres that came off rims than I have heard of backyard tubeless that came off. Still very difficult to look past the lip being required/associated with tubeless tyres. What Operator says about the...

    Tubeless Conversion Advice

    Think it over? No need to because I have installed it. It works. Enduro bike: I have cut a valve from an old tube and cut pieces of tube to seal the valve and rim locks. Seals too well as I just need to seat the tyre and don't want to keep the pressure with the mousses. What is that other...

    Grommet or thick hard rubber on inside and outside of rim. Oversize washer cut from a heavy duty tube work but is a bit finicky.

    Tubeless Conversion Advice

    In any case. I like the combined idea of doing the spoke seal conversion but still running a tube And trying to seal the tube stem as good as possible. It allow you the best of both worlds. Get a puncture on the tube you can seal the tyre with a tubeless kit and continue to your destination to...

    Tubeless Conversion Advice

    What makes Tubliss professional? Where do you draw the line? I am a professional engineer. So if I design a system, test it and sign it off is it then a professional designed system? You normally need to comply to a recognized design and/or test standard. Doubt anything exist for something...

    Tubeless Conversion Advice

    Changed the rear tyre on my enduro bike myself for the first time (first time changing it with moose) a few weeks ago. Also added additional rim locks. Took me about 5 hours to do it. :oops::unsure: Most of it was fetching tools, drilling new holes, cleaning the rim, installing seals, etc...
