And I’m dumb, the rim on the pic is an actual Ksyrium. Says it right there. :D

I was thinking of Mavic exactly! I don’t recall the model, I think it was Ksyrium that had this type of nipple threading.

For a moment I hoped this could be out of desire for adventure and not need. Sigh. I didn’t mean to sound insensitive.

Yeah that’s what I thought as well. They gotta create two blockades. But either way I’m all for transport infrastructure buildups as they’re more often than not a net benefit.

Isn’t this more expensive to make? You’d have to use spoke nipples that are only threaded from the outside. Those are usually only found on more expensive wheels. I assume they’re pricier than standard nipples.

Apart from Kinew’s shrewdness, is the hypothesis that we’d be unable to use the East and West ports?

We used to have a couple of cows when I was a kid. Shoveling their shit was hard but they’d always let you give them a hug and lick your hand. Lived a long life and gave us a lot.

It feels like going through with the F35 purchase is becoming politically untenable.

Thank you! This has to be reposted every time Kovrig or his wife open their mouths on this topic. They are touring the media since the deal like they’re some credible actors.

Kovrig really sounds like a US stooge. I hope he’s well compensated for it.

No peace prize, so I don’t want to do peace anymore!

He lost his shit when Trudeau did that.

That’s hilarious coming from the chief sockpuppet account around that is Scotty/Hotznplotzn/randomname/Sepia/tardigrade/etc.

Imagine doing this and thinking it would look positive. The detachment from reality required…
