theredrabitt on Garmin Edge 530 GPS Bike Computer $249.00 Delivered / C&C (Club Price) @ 99 Bikes

I had the 530 for a few yrs. I would actually say I am not really making use of the maps much if at all, most of the time I am on a stats…

ah - sorry to disappoint! 😅

sounds good - can play on digital to familiarize myself before joining a board game night..

ShoeyAU posted a deal [Switch] Wingspan $14.99 @ Nintendo eShop
Currently 50% off on the eShop. I haven't played the board game yet so might give the Switch version a try..

true, like those old Ford Falcon taxis in the 90s - the car itself is running like 24hrs nonstop and clocks up 400K+ km

Secret Santa 2025 sorted.

I found the trick to getting cheap good Takumars (or M42 lenses) is buying them attached to cameras, although it means you will end up with…

I think we just uncovered a community of Pentax/M42 enthusiasts on OzB!

I've had this lens for close to 15 years. It is auto focus - in the earlier Pentax K-mount SLR/DSLR systems the AF motor is in the camera…

Wow - when this came out I really wanted it and there was a author signed box version for $80+ but didn't end up getting. At this price its…

Also vintage lenses. ie fully manual M42 prime lenses from the 1960s & 70s - they have found a resurgence adapted to digital bodies or for…

Tubes are fairly generic. They are generally sized in an approximate range rather than needing to be precise, so for a 700x25c tyre you can…

Yeah I pulled the trigger on this. At the $20 price point there is the armadillos which are discounted down, or there is the RoadSport…

nice, I went for the 25mm armadillos that are still in stock. Was clicking thru the page figuring out what I wanted - in the end I went for…

Yola on No Purchase Fees for $100 & $250 Coles Mastercard Digital Gift Cards @ Giftcards.com.au

Ah I see. 50c per $250 is still a good rate, versus the usual 1% for credit cards.

brettd on Margin Loan Rate 6.856% p.a. (up to A$50,000) for Retail Investors @ Interactive Brokers
