I agree. BTW - The damage to the cone nut may have been ultimately caused by heat but the root cause was lack of a quality bearing grease and/or loose cone nuts allowing too much play in the bearings. These classic bearing/hub setups are quite reliable but do require some periodic maintenance...

I remember being here. Just can't remember where it is! Losing one's mind is a terrible thing...😔

I agree much public art is not money well spent, rich town or not.

I ride a Vado 5 that has the same motor, battery, and gearing as the Como 5 so range and hill climbing ability will be comparable. I live and ride in a very hilly little town and get ~36 miles to a charge using ~16WHr/mile. My wife rides slower, weighs less and gets more mileage; into the low...

That seems to be GM's opinion as well; fuel cells for heavy duty uses, batteries for everything else. Works for me!

...and flats still happen with tubeless setups. My sons run tubeless on their MTBs, but still carry flat kits that include spare tubes, a tire boot and a CO2 inflator 'cause stuff happens on the trail and it's a long walk back. They tell me it takes longer to install the new tube since all the...

Sorry Stefan, I have had Guru blocked for some time now.

Fuel cells for long haul trucks? GM thinks so. https://cleantechnica.com/2021/01/31/gm-pushes-ahead-with-hydrogen-fuel-cell-technology-for-long-haul-trucks/

28°F a few mornings ago here in Nor Cal, too cool for me to wear shorts! 😎 I wear long pants on all my rides this time of year, often over a thermal base layer, etc. I use velcro ankle straps that have worked well for years to protect my pants legs, though I am careful to fold my pants out...

The pedals tighten in the direction of normal forward rotation so no over tightening is needed. I use a commercial antiz-sieze paste on their threads to protect against the elements. Never an issue.

Thanks, but I'm still having a problem with the "Monkey shares 98%" part. Again, it's been a long time since biology class, but this helps me; https://www2.le.ac.uk/projects/vgec/schoolsandcolleges/topics/dnageneschromosomes So basically your genes define how you are different from others of...

Congrats! You've got a great bike. Enjoy.

What is the source you're using for this stat...

Bank of America is projecting that green hydrogen could provide up to 24% of our energy needs by 2050, helping to cut emissions by around a third...

What's the quote; "Lies, D#*n Lies, and Statistics"? 🤣

Another energy storage idea that doesn't need hugely expensive batteries; https://cleantechnica.com/2021/01/25/augwind-to-build-120-mwh-of-compressed-air-energy-storage-for-solar-in-israel/

It's been a long time since biology class, but isn't this mixing chromosomes and dna? We do share a large part of our dna with chimps, but only 1/2 of our chromosomes with each parent? https://www.genome.gov/about-genomics/fact-sheets/Chromosomes-Fact-Sheet Anyway, back to ebikes...
