Steripens work great in clear water, which is probably what you'll be treating mostly. Murky water or particulates in the water can sometimes hide the critters from the UV light, which won't kill...

I would say either the Katadyn BeFree 1L, Sawyer Squeeze or Platypus Quickdraw. These are all pretty similar - hollow core fiber filter with a soft water bag. A nice upgrade to the stock bag is a...

Berko, thanks, that's great info., just what I was looking for.

I could use a some advice on trimming. Plants are well into flower, seem to be doing great. I've lollipopped them a bit, but wonder if I should be doing any more thinning of fan leaves or flower...

This is good for me to hear. Not necessarily what I want to hear, but kinda what I suspected. Some reviews out there, and certainly the marketing hype make it sound like prosumer level battery saws...

I'm looking for a battery saw to cut lots of firewood. Power, battery life and short charge time are my main criteria, as well as being modular so I can eventually get a mower or other tools. After...

They are about 12"-18" tall. Here are some pics of the junctions. I think they are showing pistils. Pic 2 I'm not so sure about, although as that plant grows, it's looking more like pistils that are...

The confusion is probably because I don't know exactly what I'm talking about. I inherited these plants from a grower friend who passed. My understanding is they were cloned from a mother, started...

@3s - is pH related to the hermaph issue? Yes, actually saw the 'hoppers eating my plants, no hail storms. Your garden is looking nice.

@TBS - I was told to watch for trannies because of 3s's...

Thanks for the tips TBS, 3S and Joey. Until I get a more permanent solution to the hoppers, I tried elevating the plants on a framework of pallets. This got them high enough off the ground that the...

Grasshoppers, arghh! First time outdoor grower here. What can I do about grasshoppers? The only product the local garden shop has is pretty toxic, don't want to do that. Thought about draping some...

I have been leaning away from the racks that don't use traditional mounts because my impression is that they aren't as strong or reliable. Good to hear that Aeroe Spider has been working for you....

No, doesn't have to be racks. Just thinking I'll want that option at some point. But you're right, plenty of other ways to carry stuff.

That's a good idea, will check with them. How do you like your GR 300? I got one 18 months ago, it's a pretty fun bike.

I'm looking for a steel or Ti hardtail 29er with 120-130 fork, mostly for bikepacking. I also want it to be a good trail bike for unloaded riding. Thinking I want something with similar angles and...

Awesome, thanks for the info DH!

I'm looking for an 11 speed 11-36 cassette compatible with Shimano GRX 810. Doesn't look like Shimano, Sunrace or IRD make one. Anyone know if this exists?

Anyone tried the Bontrager Gunnison or Montrose?

Anyone been up on Indy Pass lately? Is it generally freezing ATL? Weather stations look like it's been close to freezing.

Shimano cassette and chain durability. What's the sweet spot? Deore, XT? I think this was covered up-thread, searched, couldn't find it.

:smile: Sorry stealurface, no pics. I had someone doing door closer shifts but one day he just walked out the door. Said the job was too repetitive... It's hard to find good door closers these days....

I've got a Ryobi Doorman that is leaking oil. Googled a bit, didn't find anything about repairing that. The vids I found said it's time to replace if leaking. Does anyone know if that can be fixed?...

It was the two smallest toes. After much back and forth I was able trace it to calf pressure with one of these folks.

Radical Pro liners. Does anyone else feel that the stock liner in the Rad Pro doesn't take full advantage of the room in the shell? A lot of people I've helped with this boot, whether it's demoing or...

175 ish with kitted up. The Conti's are getting a lot of love around here, which is a good sign. Might go that way if I decide to go for something more on the grippy side.

Toast, that does make...

Good info. on the Vittorias, thanks. Part of the motivation to get faster tires is a race coming up, buy I'm definitely not wanting anything too racy. Something faster for the race, but something...

Looking for some lighter, better rolling tires for my 2022 Tallboy. Currently running Assegai 2.5 WT Exo TR front and Dissector 2.4 WT 3C Max Terra Exo TR rear. I'm after the best rolling, lightest...

Thanks turnfarmer, I'll look at that.

The numbness happens both in the shop and while skiing pretty quickly.

Removing the cuffs would require drilling out some rivets.

Ankle ROM is average.

I need some help diagnosing cause of numbness with two female customers. One has large calves, tight fit around the top of cuff. The other has pretty skinny calves but the boot is tall in relation to...

Thanks @XXXer, skinipenem and LT. I'll try some of that out.

Not confirmed with X-ray. That is an interesting vid - I didn't know the tib/talus joint could be manipulated like that. Thanks for posting that.

Thanks Dromond. You also said something up thread that got me thinking more about fwd vs. rearward mounts. Something like how does one's mass push on the ski, where is the push coming from.

Great thread! Lots of great info. and knowledge here. I've been thinking a lot about these things last couple years, have read Shorty J's thread and whatever else I could find here but can't quite...

I will check out Norrona, thanks for the suggestions everyone. Anyone try Ortovox?

Ok, good to know. Thanks, and keep us posted.

Does anyone know of Gore Proshell pants and jacket that run slim and long? Something on the lighter weight side preferably.

Thanks GoldenBC

Has anyone tried removing the silver stiffener from the cuff of the Pro Tour? I'd like to make the cuff less bulky, willing to give up some stiffness.

Mike Hagen sold it to Mike Hogan. Hagan Hagen Hogan, say that six times fast :) Customer service seems to be great on both the retail and wholesale level.

I've been using last years' Core 89 for a while, really like it. Very versatile ski for the dimensions, and light enough to be fun to climb and skin with, but enough guts to be fun on the down too....

I just put some of these in our Tracker 3's, got the usual 99% power reading when turning on the unit. Contacted BCA about this, they had not heard of any issues with their transceivers and the...

Thanks, I'm not too familiar with the Palau options, will check them out.

I should try the tour wrap. So far I've been thinking the overlap on top of the instep wouldn't be any better than a tongue, but maybe the LV. Also not sure about the bulk of the wrap cuff. Are you...

I've used it a couple times, works fine. It took a bit to get the hang of heating the base and following that up with rubbing the wax on the base. Warmer wax was easier to crayon onto the base than...

I replaced the stock liner with a Pro Tour LV, which helped with instep pressure. Still wanted more instep room, so I heated the tongue of the liner and clamped it between two boards to make it as...

A while back someone posted a link to a site that could compare the effects of changing out things like stem length, bar sweep. I tried searching for it, couldn't find it. Does anyone remember what...

Thanks, will pass that on.

Probably kind of a long shot, but a friend is looking for a rear triangle for a 2016 Salsa Bucksaw. He's looking into repair options, but figured I'd throw it out here too.

I don't know if they have pro pricing, but when I went to sign up, there was a place to enter a discount code at checkout, so thought I'd ask. I have never heard about a code for their classes, maybe...
