As you complained about Giuliani being mentioned in this thread, I feel you may understand this seems a bit further off topic.swjohnsey said:
Not much help, here. The Brompton I bought is pretty old, frame # 1046 but it will works. Got everything working, flat bars on. I'm waiting on crankset and headset and some new brake pads. Never had a bike with Strumey Archer hub before. This one has the old Sprinter 5 speed. Seems to work O.K., I adjusted it today.Pross said:Yep, apparently joined with a bike question but has only posted once outside four 'controversial' topics on Cake Stop and never seemed to actually post a query on Bromptons.

You need to stop escalating this unhealthy behaviour
At least Stevo put an 'almost' in there. Having said that, the constant desire to 'own the libs' has undoubtedly become a thing in itself: you can see it in a more exaggerated form in Trumpism, where it doesn't matter if the actual result hurts those supporting Trump (e.g. tax cuts which massively went to the super-rich rather than Trump's 'base'), as long as it makes the liberals angry. That seems to be the only real policy outcome they want. The rest is just how they get that outcome.
It's not healthy for democracy. But then, it seems that democracy itself is not held in high esteem by the MAGAs: it's another of the tenets of liberals, so it must be a bad thing."I spent most of my money on birds, booze and fast cars: the rest of it I just squandered." [George Best]0 -
I think the combination of more Trump, Boris and Brexit might be enough to make a few liberal heads explode, like in that old movie 'Scanners'kingstongraham said:

I've had some time to work on the old Brompton. Stripped off the fenders, rack and lights. The previous owner musta been tall so got ride of the extended seatpost and replaced it with a titanium one. Got rid of the high bars and put flat bars on it along with some Chinese light brake levers and Grabon foam grips. Knocked off 5 pound.

Ivy League gets misused as some sort of academic accreditation when it's actually about sport. It is also geographically biased. Maybe Trump was an outstanding athlete rather than a genius.
