I've seen a bunch of them around here and i'd say your identification seems correct.

hint: the "Merlin" app from Cornell Labs is pretty good for checking things like that. Or https://observation.org/ if you at home and have the pics on your computer.

Oh wow, people like that really do exist.

Some people need to be competitive in everything apparently.

I watch birds to relax and keep my brain from thinking too much. That movie was a lot if fun though.

Please do yourself a favor and get proper tire levers. An allen key is the absolute wrong tool here. It will ruin your rim and possibly kill the tubes.

And this is why you never go on a ride without a basic repair kit that includes at least: a pump, two(!) tire levers, a small bicycle multitool, a tube and a patch kit (you might fuck up the new tube while mounting it...etc).

They were an optics company long before they did other things too as far as i know.

I thought Agfa is totally out since a while? At leasr for producing films like that. Orwo doesn't seem to produce themselves, but did something through Agfa a while back. At leasr according to wikipedia.

And Ilford isn't exactly german ;-)

I'm all for fresh film, it's just that most annoncements are not very true sadly. And since i've learned a bit about how complex that stuff actually is, i'm maybe overly sceptical.

Announcements like this always invoke some doubt in me. While it would be nice, the places and companies that can actually produce a proper color emulsion and coat it are VERY limited nowadays.

They say "a partner in germany". I can only think of ADOX, or is there somebody else left with an actual photo factory and the skilled people who can actually do the required work?

Schaut lustig aus. Bei Seitenwind ist der Spass dann aber auch gleich mal vorbei ;-)

Uhm, no. Multiplexing also existed in pure analog times.

Ein uebliches Lastenrad braucht nicht mehr Fahrbahnbreite als fast alle sonstigen Fahrraeder. Die meisten Mountainbike-Lenker sind viel breiter. Lastenraeder sind nur untenrum auch breit und wirken deswegen optisch als wuerden sie mehr Platz brauchen.
