At this point, do some real world trials. Forget about tounge weight more or less and just see how it works behind your bike. You may be pleasantly surprised.

Check with the manufacturer. Sounds like they may have something wrong with their specs.

Move the weight back, mostly, but not completely, behind the wheels. 75 lbs is beyond the capacity of the trailer anyway. Why are you talking about that? If you move the weight back far enough behind the wheels the tongue weight will become negative. That's almost what you need to do, but not...

Put 70 lb on the trailer and adjust the position until the tongue weight is about 15 lb. You're done.

But apparently you can.

You haven't tried them. I've had some in place for many years. I can solder too, nothing against solder, but SharkBite fittings are fantastic.

They may solder new pipes but they may use Sharkbite connectors instead, and especially for repairs. If you don't know about them check them out. They can be a lifesaver.

Amazing!

Use it until you use it up!

If I couldn't fix it easily myself I'd take it to the shop. I've done manual oiling, and it's probably not good for your saw, and it's not any fun. I'd do manual oiling if there was a tree across my driveway and I had to cut it out of the way to get to the chainsaw shop.

I just got the OpenRun Pro 2 today. I can't compare them to the 1 and I'm still on the learning curve, but they do have the back feature. One song, not to the beginning. So far, I think I'm going to like them. The customizable EQ feature is one thing I already felt the need to figure out...

I've been wanting to try them so I just ordered a pair. I guess we'll see!

That's me too but it seems like there's a good use case for them for all types of people on paths/trails who insist they need to be listening to music or talking on the phone.

Any opinions on bone conducting ear phones?

I grew up in New Jersey in the 50's. For my first Schwinn (I think it was a Schwinn), of course we didn't have online calculators, but very fortunately, my next door neighbor, who was the same age as me, had an uncle who knew someone in the physics department at Princeton. We'd consult...
