My dust cap based indecision - black Schrader (ribbed) or black Schrader (knurled) has given me another dilemma…

Lego Star Wars figure heads as dust caps.

Classic, Clone or Bounty Hunter?

Clone looks most aero*, so that's for your TT bike**.
Need to know the weights to make a final decision on other bikes.

*anybody got access to a wind-tunnel to be sure?
** as long as you align them properly, with the clone facing in the direction of movement

PS. Surely you should be running presta, but that's for another thread another day...

You'll need to get one of these to match your new dust cap;

Hmm. This brings up another dilema.

Should the wee darkside chap be facing to the side or 'forwards' in the direction of wheel rotation?

Let’s keep it Empire/Sith please. One man’s Rebel is another man’s terrorist after all.

How many painters and decorators were lost in the destruction of the second Death Star? Tried getting your toilet fixed in the Endor System recently?

Even the cash-in-hand itinerant trading nations from the eastern systems lost 80%+ of their skilled labour force and their economies are now based around call centres, bookmakers and cheap high street bakeries. You can’t sustain a civilisation on miss-sold PPI claims, betting on the outcome of pod races and jumbo sausage rolls?

But they cock up the second fix electrical (socket heights all over the shop) and are rubbish at plastering.

The labour force were slaves, in this case Wookies.

Imagine the state of the fur near its arse! I would have thought that Han Solo would have washable seat covers in the Falcon.

Won't it be, at best, facing the right way 50% of the time?
