Hey, I'm trying to log in via my browser (not tapatalk), and the site is asking me for a captcha (what holds the bike together). I never set this up, so I've just been guessing the answer (no success).

Any reason why this is going on? Hell, can anyone provide me the answer?!

It's a piece of carbon, steel or aluminium that you bolt the wheels and fork and the rest of the components to.

All lower case answer.

It's most common size is probably 56.

Some people also make it from bamboo.

It comes in many shapes, but the most common one is a diamond (answer word here).

Some bikes have folding ones.

If you buy one that comes with more parts like a fork, headset and seatpost, it's a (answer word here)...set!

If you need more hints, just reply!


Cheers,
Marin

PS the answer is not lugs, tape or glue!

I tried "mud" and "rust" with no success. Must be on the wrong forum.

Hope? Well, that's how some of them seem to be held together. ;)

I have the same problem. I changed my password recently, and now I can't log-in on Tapatalk because of the same problem. But there is no place I can write the answer.

For a long time the forum was running smooth and nobody chimed in to say how good it is.

It is only once your frame cracks of your rim buckles when you realize that what you take for granted is actually a complicated system.

If you want to see 'meh' content of me and my bike you can follow my life in pictures here!

Not sure what this means but can you let us know why we have to enter in the CAPTCHA every time? It's getting to be annoying.

Well here's very thankful that a) the forum exists in the 1st place - it's really the best forum for my interests in cycling and b) that it's back and working fine.

Looking forward to the new software, too. Thanks for the hard work!
