And our last question this week:
-
@enobacon They are adjustable, with a screw to adjust spring tension and the three holes on the post. Originally I had them all on the middle hole, but the return was not a much as I wanted so I moved them to the top hole (greatest tension), but then one of the arms apparently "failed" it still works, but a lot less tension, for that brake, I have the failed arm in the high tension hole and the working arm in the medium hole. Balances better (the screw on the failed arm does not change the tension). I don't see a way to disassemble the arm to see what is going on inside (other than destroying it).
They are Promax P-1 108mm arms. the 85mm arms I think would be just a few mm to short and the brake cable would rub on the tire. #BikeNite
@rand I haven't seen that happen but it sounds disengaged or one turn unwound in that part. Possible to loosen the adjuster screw and twist the torque pin around until it has tension? Or is the long end of the spring just slipped off the nub where it pushes against the arm?

@ascentale @bikenite A8. I couldn't upload that much from #Spezi2026 when I was still on the move. So now I get to choose one to post in answer to the weekly photo cue.
Spezi is the best cycle show I've been to, besting even the Recumbent Cycle Con I attended 10 or so years ago. Great opportunities for disabled cyclists, but also plenty of abled cyclists enjoying the spectrum of what's available in human-powered and e-assist vehicles.

@A_denie @ascentale @bikenite Be wary of power washing bottom bracket and other sensitive parts.

@ascentale @bikenite A8. Today I have seen the best that can happen to an Autobahn:
Around 5000 cyclists were riding today through Frankfurt, Germany, to protest against road extension and for better alternative mobility.

@kimu @ascentale @bikenite Wow, congrats to him! How long/far did he manage to bike in the robe for?

@ajft @ascentale @bikenite i understand that a lentil under the valve cap is quite effective.
Repeat offenders might get one under all 4. -

At the Holmfirth Folk Festival with my partner and her Morris team.
They are the Milltown Cloggies, and the style is NorthWest Clog Morris
UK peeps may recognise Holmfirth as the setting for Last Of The Summer Wine
For everyone else, I cannot adequately explain a TV sitcom that pulls on the innate weirdness of Pennine towns.
