I just love this forum's design the way it is. It takes me back when the internet is a much better place 15-20 years ago. I was also a forum moderator for one of the Philippines' biggest forums so this site's design is so much better for a mid 30s like me. Well that's just me and thank you @Sitar_Ned for building this forum up! This is has been wonderful for bike building and connecting with cheap but solid frames!
I'm mid 40's so not sure what that has to do with much.  15-20 years ago you didn't have phones taking hi-res photos, internet speeds able to quickly upload those images and cheap high capacity storage to store them...

Plus I think design and function are 2 separate things imo, you're not changing the design by limiting the image size of attachments.

Welcome to the forum.

You can jump to the latest post in the thread by clicking the little orange "new" button next to the thread title.

Is there anything we can do about image sizes, i.e. automatically reduce large images to a size more managable for the browser?

Not only does it take a while to load (and storage space) they also are generally too large to view sufficiently without nagivation (which kinda defeats the object).

Maybe with a mod like this Resize Images To Fit Screen by slinouille or Automatic Attachment Rotation (and Resize) by dougiefresh

Anybody made any pre-orders directly from Wheeltop and had any issues?

I made an order almost 8 weeks ago (pre-order was 4-6 weeks).  Contacted them and the made up some story how they created a delivery weeks back and failed to update me.

Only the tracking number they sent me hasn't changed from Shipping Information received for 3 weeks!!  Feels like they're lying to me, trying to stall or something, which is not a good sign.

Where else are we buying from who can ship instantly?

I meam I'm new here (his is my first post), but it would be great if there was thread page navigation, jump to latest post when entering threads and at a push a better search function.  But look and feel of the forum (as an oldie) is all good by me...  8)

V-brake or Direct Mount?

I just bought a BXT fork, not received it yet. Was really struggling to find a Direct
Mount so opted for a V instead.
