When human beings devolve back to dinosaurs, and we are all 9’ tall T-Rex’s with tiny arms. We are gonna be so glad this stem exists.

@browner: No, it’s like the next dimension of real. Imagine reality is like a tube sock, and you’ve folded it within itself. It’s double real.

Tested: Do Short Cranks Work For Tall Riders?
@benpinnick: My real world experince of dropping 10mm of crank length, i never noticed the "effective" 2 tooth change of the chainring, i've got 12 gears out back, with a huge spread, I just use the gear that works. I did however notice the improved ground clearance, mainly cos i've less snapped pins in my pedals.

Sixpack Announces New Internal Cable Routing System
@Mtbdialed: nice try, but water is actually compressible.
“The bulk modulus of water is about 2.2 x 109 Pa, which means that a change of 1 N/m2 of external pressure on the liquid is able to change a given volume of it by a factor of 4.5 x 10-10”
So it doesn’t compress much, but it does compress. And more to the point, you knew I wasn’t talking liquids, so nice try.
