Most of the new stuff is just placebos to my mind, tech that makes you feel good but doesn't really enhance the ride itself. "Which smart features actually make riding better? " Modern suspension I feel, but that's what you guys are about is it.
lol, well yes, that's understandable. I have some RC buggies that I regularly max out the engines in but I think they are designed to run that way, and if they fail, so what! Also my 2Stroke brush cutters and chainsaw and blower get run at max RPMs. They are specifically designed to be run...
That's another factor, it takes a certain "attitude" to safely ride bikes and a lot of the ebike entrants probably don't have it. Like those middle aged accountants that go out and buy a motorcycle during a midlife crisis. If they're lucky they get to sell it before their first nasty crash.
I haven't used a hand pump in 30 years of cycling, except once when I got a flat and the patch wasn't good. Initially I pumped the tire up with CO2 cylinders but when it started to go back down I had to use the little pump I carried. At home I use a 12V car tire compressor, I run them off old...
Would work actually. I had the task of pouring out someones ashes once and it was more like sandblast shot than bbq ash. All the minerals naturally. Would pay to grind it up though, it was a bit lumpy.
Oh dear oh dear... Why do you insist on spinning things away from the obvious reality. I was talking about the Japanese attacks on Americans, not what happened in China or anywhere else. I couldn't give a FF that they were nuked, but the fact remains that they were innocent civilians. Now...
That has been my whole augment here. One country slandering another for invading it's neighbor, while at the same time it goes around the world overthrowing governments, assassinating leaders and bombing the guts out of whatever it doesn't like. I have no issue with what the US is doing, I...
Well what can you expect? They have already blown up all the ukraine's military and industrial targets and they still refuse to surrender. It's like the US in WWII, when they killed hundreds of thousands of innocent people when they bombed the cities with nuclear weapons. It's the fog of war...
Automated Safety Destroys Critical Decision-Making Skills
So allowing high speed bicycles improves them? What absolute nonsense. Get off the soap box already.
Don't gun owners over there move to other states to enjoy less restrictive laws? I would think that "gun rights" would carry a lot more weight than e-bike rights, and if the gun owners with their powerful backers get restricted in certain states, what hope do a bunch of cyclists have?
