    Woman chased teen on e-bike to 'speak with his parents' for going too fast, Flagler deputies say

    got to love florida. I have seen way to many motorcycles,mopeds and cars on the bike paths. A 911 call said that the woman, 65-year-old Julia Kalthof, was chasing the teenager on the e-bike on the Pine Lake Path used for bicycles and pedestrians. The 911 caller said they had cut off Kalthof's...

    I gave them to the homeless as I had newer ones, but they were fine for years.

    Bike trailers

    I have pulled trailers that I made that weigh 200 to 300 pounds, long before there were e-bikes. It got crazy, and it felt like someone was pushing and pulling you from behind, but keep it so simple, or it gets crazy.

    Bike trailers

    Two trailers would add a lot more drag to the bike.

    I just floor this guy as the little tool was such a pain. I may cut it short

    Changing from Tubeless to Tube? Turbo Tero 6.0 X

    You literally only have to remove the tubless valve to change over. And to change back, install it. Nothing more is required. Well, adding a tube, of course :D

    Anybody tried Clik tire valves?

    I broke down and got some of these guys. Now my nice Prestacycle Pro Presta Head – Auto-Lock stays on better and does not leak. but the pressure is low by about 6 or so psi. not sure if its the pump head causing it. my pressure gauge does not work well but I don't use it anyway I go by ride and...

    Tubeless Blues

    the bad part is you ahve to remove the valve and then reinstall it. I have really lucked out with tires that are easy to seat.

    Tubeless Blues

    I have had a couple tires do that. I had to put a tube in inflate it then take the tube out leaving one side of the tire seated on the rim. then it would inflate.

    Show Us a Tool

    I use these pails, they work for rollers and brushes. I bought ladder hooks so I can carry two up and hook them on the ladder so I don't have to hold them. Also bought the liners. Don't even have to wash the bucket, saves a huge amount of time

    Show Us a Tool

    I toss rollers; they are cheap enough, even for good ones, or wrap them in plastic for the next day. I used a 4" roller that fit in the paint pail along with a brush held with a magnet. I had one for gray, one for the green, with hooks to hang it from the ladder. Did the whole house in a day and...

    Tubeless Blues

    This is what it should look like the tape should just touch the sides of the rim. Yours looks like its over 1/2 the way up.

    Show Us a Tool

    Got this airless sprayer for a job painting these big letters I made for a customer. But it put out so much paint that it was not practical. So it sat around for the last 3 years. I finally had to break down and paint the house. I debated on painting it and painting everything gray, but I used...

    Tubeless Blues

    You have way too wide of tape. It should just be wider than the flat part of the rim. So far, only a few tires needed a tube; otherwise, my regular compressor or even my Makita cordless compressor have been fine. I have some Schwalbe tires that could be inflated with a hand pump and hold air for...

    Any negatives to buying a Bulls older model like Bulls Iconic Evo TR 2 ?

    bulls is not great about warranty issues, they make you go to the manufacturer of whatever part breaks if its not the frame. I have three gen 2 and gen 4 bikes with no usses.

    Ode to the Trek Allant+ 8s

    I thought about it, but the only two dealers, one was 15 or more miles away by bike, so not practical The other is a high-end shop, but you can only ride the bike around the parking lot so no way to test it. Plus with two bosch bikes I had batteries that would fit it.
