In Valheim it was quite real and comfy at the same time. Weird I know.

It's sad, but there is such a small percentage of people that care about this at all. When Shimano announced they where going with a new driver for 12s cassettes called microspline instead of using the standard XD from SRAM I said to myself people won't fall for this crap.. but they did. And now we have three different freehub standards.

We have all heard this song before and know how it ends.

Missing a red dot in the middle of rural Albacete. El Bonillo is an independent nation.

So this is what marketing can spit out in their best possible light. That means it can only go downhill from here. Not very promising.

I'm not sure, but in the debug config try to point "program" to the actual executable in /target/debug/hello_world

That just means that they haven't done enough "cost cutting" and "profit optimization" yet. Eventually they will get there.

In southern Spain you can't dig without hitting some stone age stuff. My town was a known stop for travellers before the Romans took over because of fresh water wells. Eventually a roman road was built about two millenia ago, and still ride on it with my bike for some routes.

No old buildings remain, this was a roadside village and stuff was made cheap and not meant to last, but there is a funeral arrangement from 600 BC that was unearthed and sent to the national museum. More info

In the early days of the euro I got paid fully in cash and every now and then I got one of those in the envelope. I don't recall having trouble to pay with it... but those days are gone and haven't seen a 500 note in ages.

The ones I really like are the six missing

Thanks that explains a lot. Bummer that parts and warranties are no avail anymore.

It's sad but at the same time understandable. I stopped buying from CRC around 2021 because it took forever to ship to Spain. That includes a Big-Al Ragley frame for a bike I built in the day.

Although true, it isn't the point I'm trying to get across. My view is that weight limits aren't a great metric. You don't have to go for niche sports, the traditional xc/trail bike is what everybody starts with on mtb.

Say this example xc bike has a weight limit of 150Kg. Rider A is at 170Kg buys this bike ignoring the limit and just rides smooth local fire roads for some excersise.

Rider B is young, athletic 70Kg build. Buys this SAME bike and goes on rides with friends that know all the fun trails. Rider B is getting faster and stronger, and the bike starts to show it's limitations.

It's clear which bike will fail sooner. Weight alone doesn't matter, and both riders are using the bike for it's intended and designed purpose.

Manufacturers cannot reliably slap a max weight to their bikes because of all the other factors involved. And if they do, it will be way conservative to avoid getting into legal trouble.

Weight limits on performance bikes are total nonsense. Probably are there just to comply some law. A pro enduro rider weighing 20kg less than me would destroy my setup any day.

I find hard to believe a traditional 26er with 36 triple cross spoked wheel from a reputable manufacturer can't hold up to any rider capable of moving on their own and sitting on a saddle any amount of time.

Unless they are heading to Whistler's a-line
