Ah, that explains why the auto-suggested title didn’t work here when it did work in !nebula. My damn mouse has a habit of double-clicking when I use the button I have set to paste.

Anyway, link should work now.

The country everybody wants to emulate, shouldn't be emulated. Shocker.

This only goes decently for cities. Plus in the Netherlands prices have been going up and up and up. It’s not fun anymore and it’s cheaper to take the car.

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.

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, miesiąc 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.

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, miesiąc 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?

(12.1/100k Taiwan 12.6/100k USA)

Kaboom, miesiąc temu

A lot more miles than Taiwan

Nouveau_Burnswick, miesiąc temu

And? Highway miles should have even less interaction with pedestrians.

atro_city, miesiąc temu

Less population density than Taiwan.

Going faster than Taiwan
