I know it's pretty common in the industry to dog on microSHIFT, but honestly, they were in the right place at the right time in the pandemic, and more importantly they seem like they aren't embarrassed to work with the budget-conscious or the weirdos. Shimano and SRAM seem doggedly determined to keep churning towards the future and making it harder and harder to get simple, functional components that just work, and meanwhile microSHIFT is like...some of you weirdos still like friction shifters? Great. We can make those. Oh, someone wants to resurrect a rapid rise style derailleur? Sure, we'll help make that happen.

Cheap parts is cheap parts, and every brand started there (SRAM mostly started on department store bikes, if my boss is to be believed), and microSHIFT seems very willing to grow in unique directions and stay out of the fistfight the two giants have been locked in for decades now.

Oh, AND their packaging is almost entirely plain-old brown cardboard and kraft paper, so they are generating *much* less plastic waste than the big boys, which always makes me happy!

Bonjour le mastomonde !

J'ai une question #velo ! (Pour faire couleur locale!)
J'ai depuis 4/5 ans un velo de route décathlon Triban RC120, disques à câble, 2x8 vitesses qui me convient très bien, sauf pour un truc énervant : les leviers de commande de vitesse Microshift qui n'ont jamais bien marché. Les vitesses montent bien mais le cliquet de redescente merdouille et tout redescent d'un coup…

The #okd project has released a version of #microshift based on OKD, so of course I had to try it out.

For those not familiar with it, OKD is a kubernetes distribution and is the "upstream" of RedHat's OpenShift.

Here is a single-VM vagrant-libvirt setup that installs, configures and starts the Kubernetes cluster using #Ansible.

Have a lot of fun!
