Setting light to a derailleur @Mere Development i think not, also they were red pads with sintered metal on the other side. The fire was a wooden campfire. It might have taken them several minutes, I do not remember. |

Setting light to a derailleur @mattnz one time I got oil on my disk pads. I threw both the pads and disks in a fire. The discs got cleaned up. The expensive pads crumbled immediately! |

Six speed chain on an eight speed bike Ok, couple of months passed and now I can assert that your answer was correct. My two smallest cogs were worn out and clicked. Now, after the chin is a little bit worn out also, the clicking has stopped. |

Where to mount a headlight if the handlebar is obscured by a basket @ Paul H, IMHO quite the contrary. With helmet light one can look slightly away from fellow cyclists. |

Cable routing and why is there no optimum solution The cables on my CX bike are routed as pointed in the question. I guess the rear cables are routed along the top of the frame to facilitate shouldering, as ** Glenn Gervais** points out. Also, the front derauler cable runs under the bottom tube, to minimize length. So am I correct that the designers at Specialized chose to avoid the sharp 90 degrees bend under the seatpost, even at the cost of all the mud of mountain biking, hitting directly the cable? |

Installing a rigid fork on a commuter MTB @Kibbee, quite logical. I shall ride some with the fork locked, to get a feel of what it would be! |

Clicking handlebar Maybe you are not tightening the bolts sufficiently? |

What are the minimum requirements to commute comfortably through the winter? Aren't you too hot in sky pants and thick coat. The boots and gloves must be warm indeed, however. |
