I think this will be the video I’ll recommend people unfamiliar with the channel from now on. Fun facts, introducing common problematic concepts, and relatively short.

How else do you think block paving is put down ?

nesc, 13 dni temu

Maybe some people never seen it being done, so they assumed it’s laid by some machine.

(I’ve done a little walkway like 4 meters long and 1.5 wide, with three other people, hellish work, mad respect for people doing it well)

DarkSirrush, 13 dni temu

I actually have seen videos of brick laying machines before, its pretty neat.

Yes but it’s not versatile enough for most cases

The UK also has many examples of terrible patchwork asphalt, where parts have been patched multiple times but the entire surface doesn’t appear to have been repaved in decades.

World’s dumbest province elects the world’s dumbest leader who enacts the world’s dumbest traffic policies…

Also, this is happening in the city that elected a crackhead mayor, who was the brother of the guy who is now pushing through these crackhead bike lane laws

Are we starting to see the root cause here?

Any link to a text based source?

Look up “Doug Ford bike lanes” and you’re sure to find a ton. Ford has had it in for bike lanes with a rage usually saved for his non-paying drug customers.

I don’t want to watch a video. Is there a written version?

No idea, but the rule is a 2 staircase requirement. All building 2 floors and higher in most of Canada and US must require 2 staircases which means that they take up more room in a building and limit the possible room configurations in the building as well. The reason for 2 staircases is because of the increased fire hazards US and Canadian homes faced due to using wood for home construction unlike in Europe where extremely fire resistant materials are used. The host indicates that fire deaths have dropped significantly because of fire retardant technology throughout US and Canadian homes that makes the 2 story rule pointless for home less than 6 stories tall.

Verdict: in many places yes. In places with money: less so. Not too surprising, but definitely better than the US.

Better than the US? wtf do you mean we don’t have taxis driving on sidewalks or motorcycles speeding down the wrong side of split avenues.

Nouveau_Burnswick, 5 miesięcy temu

So you don’t have taxis driving on sidewalks or motorcycles speeding down the wrong side of split avenues and you STILL have about the same road deaths and injuries per pop as Taiwan?

T0RB1T, 5 miesięcy temu w Please recommend a middle- to high-end hydraulic disc brake set with a Flat-mount caliper

To ensure compatibility, you said you had a local bike shop… you should probably go there and get your brakes swapped with whatever you’re excited for, that they can order in.

Plus, support local, of course.

nasko, 5 miesięcy temu

Nah, that’s the first thing I did - ask them for a swap. They:

• Only offer post-mount calipers
• Wouldn’t suggest a swap to me, because I bought the Sirrus 3 from them and it is still under warranty.

Their stance is basically - ‘If you come back with a brake set, we’d swap it for you, but we can’t suggest a replacement’

T0RB1T, 5 miesięcy temu

Well, I’m sorry to hear that, that’s kinda wild. I’m not a mechanic, and not deep enough into bikes to tell you what to get.

I’m sorry for wasting your time.

Not at all, mate! Honestly - it’s not like I’m getting an influx of comments that I’d have a hard time keeping up with. :-) Thank you for jumping in.

When I was shopping for brakes, years ago, lots of told me SLX has all the quality/power of XT or XTR but they’re a tiny bit heavier and don’t have the prestigious badge. I went with SLX and have been very happy.
