What bike stuff do you recycle?
I saw this piece: https://theradavist.com/bike-shop-re...urvey-results/.
This made me think about my own use of bike stuff. Probably my two biggest sources of waste are discarded tires and tubes. I try to patch tubes until they can no longer be patched (e.g., the valve stem has a tear), but although I've thought of other uses, they usually end up in the trash, unfortunately. I've also cut up old tires for use as tire boots, but you really just need a short piece or two, not the whole length of a tire. Another reason to favor metal frames over carbon: they can be recycled. I've broken and recycled a few myself.
