    Wall Street Bets: The EBR Edition

    I never thought when I made this thread that the day would come with all this gamestop in the news. I expect volatility in the coming weeks, but ultimately, compared to the total market cap of the stock market, the gamestop business will be a small blip in the radar. I do expect social unrest...

    Who is transporting their ebikes standing up inside a truck bed under topper?

    I have been looking for a couple years for a means to carry my bicycle on some crossbars that run over a tonneau cover. Basically, I want the security of a locking tonneau, and keep the bikes up on top of the tonneau so they don't pick up debris from being in a hitch mounted bike rack. The...

    "With oil soon becoming obsolete" I am the guy trading against that thought. Good luck. See you on the other side.

    Bike lock for a city that's not very bike friendly

    If you don't mind the weight penalty, a 5 foot Pewag 1/2" chain combined with the Viro EuroMonolith lock is your best bet. Check westechrigging.com

    Rear rack for Yamaha cross core

    They are very well built and designed if you are going to carry panniers.. Seatpost racks aren't that stable if you are packing 15 pounds per pannier, and the only alternative for a full suspension bike is the topeak tetrarack, which clamps on via velcro and has a weight limitation. Old man...

    Wall Street Bets: The EBR Edition

    Oil is a long term holding position and stocks in big oil, and, especially, exploration and production stocks are trading at extremely depressed values. Dividends remain high and stable. It is my opinion that there is simply no way that in 10 years oil will be $5/barrel. My midcycle target...

    Wall Street Bets: The EBR Edition

    You put your confidence in the management of the SPAC company. In the case of BTWN, you are trusting Peter Thiel with your money. There is of course risk, though take a look at the return of BTWN since the date of my original post. :)

    Wall Street Bets: The EBR Edition

    Thought I would start this thread, a lot of intelligent people here on EBR. What equity positions are you positioning yourselves on? For me, this year I am heavy into PLTR and DFEN. I am also building a position in BTWN. I am long oil stocks, specifically FTI, BKR, and XOM. Looking at a 5G...

    Will This Sort of Topeak Rack Work With Dropper Post?

    Their racks work fine with carbon. No weight is carried on the frame of the bike - its all on the thru axel. They discuss this in their product faq on the website.

    Are you telling me you are carrying the spare battery in a backpack?!

    Check out Old Man Mountain racks. They will probably ship to Poland. Works perfectly with a full suspension and dropper post. I wouldn't use any other rack now that I found them.

    Old man mountain racks are your best bet for dropper posts.

    Any pictures of how you transport your favorite ride?

    Bike and boat only - no car? If so, I am jealous of your ability to pull this off. Though I would still miss my truck nonetheless

    Overstock on BH Easymotion Bikes over 50% off on some models

    Might as well chime in that I bought my BH from Lenny and they did an incredible job packing it for shipment. It took me a good half hour to unpack the bike from the shipping box. Would buy again from Lenny. In contrast, I bought an eBike from Motostrano a couple years back, and they just threw...

    Rear rack for Yamaha cross core

    If your bike can take an Old Man Mountain rack, that is the only way to go, in my not-so-humble opinion.

    Seriously (not subjectively)... Do suspension forks improve safety on Urban ebikes?

    Really the only way to answer this is for you to ride down a bumpy city road with a rigid frame at 28mph and ask yourself if this is safe. Personally, I love the comfort of full suspension on my eBike, and think it is a major safety advantage.
