Sorry your bike was stolen. I just got an E-bike on October 2, 2025. The other day I ran across a bike insurance website called Project 529. You can pay monthly or yearly. Mine is $130 a year. I do not know a lot about it yet. And hope it is decent.

I will have to get a “Gopro” style camera to do that and find a place on my already crowded handlebars to put it. I know you can get a secondary bar. When I ever get a camera I will purchase the extra bar.

I have tinnitus but not from E-Bike or Biking. How is an E-Bike giving you Tinnitus?

I liked watching B-52 and FB-111’s take off and land when Carswell AFB was a SAC base in the 70’s.

I do not miss the days of sun burns in my teens and twenties. I don’t take shirt off as I am scarred in front because of Triple Bi-Pass and other surgeries and all over my back with those surgeries. I am sure I am ‘white as a marshmellow” also. Dad, my younger brother and sister have the brown...

My wife’s mother grew up in the Bayou‘s of Southern Louisiana. Her mother’s mother was French with the last name Breaux. Sometimes her mother would come out with French sayings I guess she picked up from her mother.

Are you Chinese or just speak Mandarin?

Michelin High Milers got the best wear of any tire we tried on the Original DFW Airport Train (Originally called Airtrans). Firestone absolutely the worst and only got 10-19K miles on them. Very soft rubber and did not work well on my sons first car in 2001 that came on them. The best thing we...

I wanted to take Electronics in High School but you had to take the class first in 10th grade then they would allow it in 11th. I had to take some other required courses in 10th grade and no room for...

Some cheap stuff from China using cheap components and being overrated not going to last no how much you baby it. Mostly cheap capacitors failing. It is hard today to find some things that are reliable. I hate it when something worked very well and lasted many years yet when you replace with the...

When I first got the bike they were a 14lbs of air pressure. I found the bike got much more stable at or near 20. I do not like doing anything at or near it’s maximum as it wears it out quicker. A circuit breaker in a house should only be operated at no more than 80% of it’s rated value. I...

With the knobby tires I had the pressure set to about 20psi. With the new Kenda’s 21psi. Why the difference? Mainly to insure they straightened out. I originally filled the rear to 25psi to correct any issues with tire deforming during shipping but dropped to 21psi before riding. Didn’t need to...

You guys have been a big help to me and it is appreciated. Thank you

My does it in .5 increments. (i .e. 27, 27.5, 28, 28.5 and the low value is 14“ and high value of 30”). I assume that is what you mean by granular but really granular would be in .1 increments.
