It's a head cup remover for bicycles.

Also bought a Cove Handjob frame, after being annoyed with the weight of my kona everytime I ride it!

Old and tired LSD coming out later, to be replaced with a locked one, good times ahead!

Locked as in welded? Bad times

Quote from majod :

I've been on another trip to Kiev, so I'll post more photos later (maybe), here's one from previous trip - again from Dubrovnik:

I really like this! Is that a dust spot on the top right though?

If you are able to get 40% off of Garrett turbo's it will be much appreciated!!!!!


Rota Torques 18x9.5 et12 work out at £886.21 vs £931.80 (driftworks)

So not too bad!

I found out last night @ 00:30 that there was a rally going on about 80 miles from my house.. so I got up at 07:00 and went! Mostly to test my new camera, which I now love!

Cove bikes/frames have some funny names indeed!

Shocker, STD, Foreplay, Stiffee, Handjob to name a few

Now it has finally arrived.. canon 7d + battery grip + 32gb sandisk I must admit it's costing me a fortune trying to peep on my eldery neighbours

no picture

Now with picture! 2kg of goodness..

Quote from Cameltoe :

What kind of bike are you riding?

Cameltoe, I have an old kona 'freeride' bike that I use for really really light XC Planning to change to a Cove Handjob frame soon.

(pic of said bike)

Quote from Cameltoe :

I've never liked that kind of pattern, not good for hand Soft or hard material?

The material is hard where the spikes are, but your hands are generally on the soft outline edge that is raised. They feel really nice, and for £8 I'm not complaining. (I also wear gloves though..) Put em on the bike yesterday, only to find I have a rear flat.

It turns out the crap inside the tube to stop it getting a puncture has clogged up the valve and it's now leaking.

They are indeed the cheapest set of bike handlegrips I could find!

Quote from DeadWolfBones :

Well, thanks for the honest assessment.

The frames are just something I'm playing around with in Silver Efex.

And I do know what you mean regarding the stuff I shoot, unfortunately. Most of my shooting is casual shit done at lunch on work days, which means I shoot the same crap over and over and over again and it gets difficult to have any new creative drive for the process. I wouldn't say that all of my shots are that way, but a fair number of them are. I really need to get out more, but life is busy...

That said, I don't think every photographer needs to be a concert photographer, or a wedding photographer, or an epic landscape photographer, or a motorsports photographer. There's value in simple shots of flowers and back yards and alleyways, too. I mean, I've rarely seen you post anything other than panned race car shots. In my opinion, the only guys on this forum with a diverse enough portfolio to be really called photographers are Mikko and Don. The rest of us are just hobbyists with pet subjects.

(And yes, I do write camera/lens reviews.)

No offence was intended. Perhaps posting 5 shots that you consider best out of a weeks worth rather than a weeks worth would keep things fresh and interesting to look at. This is the rule of thumb I tend to stick to with the same old motorsport photography that I do and post.

Few randoms to keep things on topic: (no cars!)

I like the post processing in lightroom.. and the 24-105 lens is quite sharp/nice






Goodnight from England

Top secret, but the last ones were heavily worn and strangely sticky. Had to use gloves with em all the time.

DWB, Those frames are gash , are you a camera/lens tester? as I am kinda under the impression all of your shots are just "ooh look *snap*, ooo look *snap*, ooo look *snap*" to prove the camera/lens quality rather than thought and consideration into the subject .

Cheers
