@[email protected] @[email protected] A8: My daughter is into the current Happy Meals toys, so I end up stopping by this McD's pretty often. Since they don't have cycle racks, I just bring my bike in... #BikeNite #MastoBikes #BikeTooter #McDonalds

@[email protected] @[email protected] @[email protected] A1a: From Seattle, WA.

A1b: I usually use the Camelbak Podium Chill. It's not completely insulating but keeps the drink relatively cold in the Seattle summer. I like it also because you don't need to squeeze it to drink from it. You just have to suck it. I do have the Camelbak insulated steel bottle, too, but it doesn't fit snugly into my bottle cage.

Thanks all for the #BikeNite questions tonight. And thanks for answering, reading & discussing.

There are 2 questions in the queue, to be saved for next week. So there's room for ~5 more. Send any questions over with the BikeNitePQ hashtag so I can find them.

Reply, boost and favorite to keep it going. Thanks for being a part of this community. And you can follow #BikeNite, if you haven't yet. Use the hashtag to help boost awareness!

@MartyCormack asks about electronic shifting:

My road bike at home has an issue with shifting, I don't know if the cable is bad (most likely), the shifter is broken or if it's something else.
The road bike I'm provided this week on tour has electronic shifting, which is intriguing since I go through shifter cables once or twice a year.

Q7: What are the pros and cons of electronic shifting versus cable shifting?

@Karstan asks:

Q6. Are there any current or former professional bike mechanics on the Fediverse that would be interested/willing to share insights about the profession? What was your professional journey like? Any warnings/advice for someone considering a career change into the profession? Would getting a certification from an organization like the United Bicycle Institute be worthwhile?

@gcvsa asks:

I need recommendations for a bicycle home maintenance stand that is capable of holding an ebike.

Let's say max weight of 40 Kg? My Rad Power Bikes RadMission is about 50 lbs (~23 Kg) free of accessories. I don't plan on ever buying anything heavier than that.

Free-standing would probably be best, but I would consider ones designed for permanent installation, either mounted to garage framing or the concrete slab. Trying to spend less rather than more.

Q5. Do you have a maintenance stand to recommend?

Q3. What has been your experience with fully housed vs. exposed/partially housed cables?

Wouldn't the exposed portion be a pathway for water/dirt to enter the cable housing?

@Amgine asked a little while ago:

Today I was digging through crates at Bike Kitchen, looking for a decent kickstand. And it raised a couple questions:

Q2a. #LBS which build up frames are cool, recycle hardware, and teach people to DIY. Do you know of one locally?
Q2b. I am still looking for the perfect two-leg kickstand. Any recommendations?

Bike Kitchen is on #UBC campus: https://www.thebikekitchen.ca/
