In a bind when you don't have a reverb oil height tool, a reverb hose fits, a zip tie for height control, a remote & half a bleed kit can be used to accurately set the internal oil height in a reverb stealth.
What are your best successful bodges?
A blob of vulcanising glue and a square of airfix decal backing paper worked a treat on a pinhole in my camelbak bladder. Still going strong a couple of years later.
My brolly kept blowing over. We now lounge in complete safety.

Great bodega, Northwind, but I hope you've got a good dentist just in case.
A long way up Glen Tilt, a friend's stem loosened up. We didn't have any Allen keys (young and foolish) but did have a bungee cord, so bungeed the bars to the forks with a stick. The steering was amusingly spring-loaded.
Have also tried the stuffing a tyre with grass thing - didn't work.

My wife wrecked a carbon wheel in Morgins, and we were staying in Morzine. The wheel had cracked across the bed and round the side, and also split along the bead.
It's a long way home, so I took a layer of the gorilla tubeless setup off, and taped the rim back together as best I could, chucked a tube in and rode home slowly.
It just about stayed together.

That was more reliable than the SRAM version. Though if I'd have got a puncture I'd have been ****ed 😆
