Comment on Recumbent “bike pod” whisks cyclists along above traffic by Jeremiah

An aerodynamic cone on the rear and a better track system would allow even higher speeds.

Reminds me of (and aguably a better solution for real transportation)

We’d like to know, too, but none of us can lift it anymore.

Comment on Dunlop valve key rack – another way to re-use by Dan

You caught me slacking! You’re right, those aren’t presta valves, they’re Dunlop/Woods valves. They’re quite rare in North American; I’ve seen only one or two in person before.
Thanks for the catch and thanks for reading

Interesting.

Not all of these are Presta valves. The valves on the right and left are the ones that were almost universal in the Netherlands, where I grew up. They use a short piece of latex tube to make a seal and they’re durable and easy to repair. I don’t know what these are called in English. We called the Presta valves French valves.
