Currently, new bottom bracket, cassette and chain. Also wheels are potentially bad lol. I just bought it a while ago cos it was local on FB market place and cheap, steel frame. In a rush. Keeps needing bits and bobs, all adding up to a fair amount, and was thinking I should save and get a decent old cromoly workshorse/basic tourer instead. Something that will actually last a lifetime with better (2nd hand) components to begin with. Rather than keep spending on repairs and replacements.
Really it could be a building project, but I'll need to learn how to do that and have more free time (which I don't really have). So sort of looking for someone who builds bikes as a living. Maybe slightly off the official bike store grid
Ok sounds like a lot of little issues, sorry can’t help in this case. Having the right tools is crucial and unfortunately a necessary investment for repairing on your own…
Yes there's also that. I wouldn't know where to begins and wouldn't have the tools. Although there are workshop places you can go for free that have tools and people to help you. But they tend to be on when I'm at work :(
Best opportunity for orange pilling someone there ;)
Yeah maybe, but also don't want to overload them. I'm already asking for something quite convoluted lolol
Man in shed building bikes cash in hand / btc lightning in hand economy style directory for wider trades/skills/services.
That's the idea.
That’s me 😂 but I’m not in the UK
Like Pinkbike marketplace but with Lightning?
Was thinking more services like repair and build, but yeah also selling of bikes, frames, parts etc. but generally trades people. More like TrustATrade or something. But yeah all of the above lol
@BTCMap.org why is it not possible to search ie for a country/city/region and a certain trade, coffee, bicycle / bike, pc service etc? Then, API to every Nostr client to form a marketplace? @damus @Nostur @Iris @Amethyst & others
Do you code?
I can barely remember the code to get into my phone
(No)
Lol🤗
Heard of Scrum?
Reckon you could product manage it if I found you some devs?
No idea what a scrum is.
I wouldn't trust me with anything like that tbh.
Haha fair.
Shout if you come across anyone who wants to help make it.
What are you planning on building? 👀
Decentralised pinkbike
Cool. Is there no place here where people list projects for other people to jump in on? I'm sure you can make a post about it and tag all the asknostr hashtags and what not 🤔
