I was watching TV show Live PD yesterday. A house resident objected to 3 young women walking past his house and shot a pistol "at the ground" he said. Actually a 45 cal hollow point round passed through the roof of the adjacent house and hit the floor by the couch. So he shot straight up. So...

Thianks for listing the name of the perpetrator. US sold bikes risk a huge tort penalty for failures like this. My aluminum frame bike has 12000 miles with loads up to 240 lb. I bet Mukkpet US assets include a cell phone and a website on leased server space - ie nothing to liquidate if you...

I've heard that shouted by a taxi driver. I pay $6800 a year county+city tax. $2800 state tax. That should pay for some road maintenance.

Last year on my way to the grocery, I stopped at a new tool sale shop. I needed an engine repair stand. As the nearest lock tether was 500' away, I wheeled my bike into the shop. The door was wide open. The counterperson quickly told me park my bike outside. I left. That was last year. This...

Wholesale prices on Dutch made bikes just went up 25%. The groupsets, brakes, propulsion systems used to build the bike just went up 125%. The ****ese competition the wholesale prices just went up 125%. It is good bike riding weather. Shops that have inventory bought at the old price will not...

I have found 10 winding 1000 w 48 v geared hubs top out on the flat at ~25 mph. A 12 winding 48 v geared hub topped out on the flat about 22 mph. My bike has a slightly forwards seating position. Your results may vary. The 750 w motor I bought burned out on the first trip to my summer camp...

How fast and how far can you ride it with the electricity turned off. It does rain sometimes. Would your Mommy come get you in her dinosaur burner?

But I can't buy a 1000 w geared hub motor any more. Nobody will import them since most states outlawed them. I tried to buy 8 of them from Cutler Mac in ***** in February, but my computer is not fast enough to suit Alibaba. While I was rebooting after lockup alibaba timed out every time. I'm...

The problem with watt limits, they regulate climbing ability instead of speed. IE if I am going to carry groceries to my summer camp, I now need a $20000 car instead of a 750 w bicycle. Or a **** noisy gas scooter. No exercise possible with either of those. The 2018 1300 w ebikeling hub motor...

Considering the short distance, the perfect pavement in the UK, the lack of storage space indoors, I would recommend a Brompton folder. If you have to jump a curb occasionally, or your city has potholes, a 24" wheel folder like the airnimal electric joey would be more the ticket...

I have found the cause is mostly the throttle sensor getting shorted out. I now wrap a grocery bag around the throttle when it is raining. Helps most of the time. PAS sensor is same technology but I have not found that to be the cause. I have the controller under the seat with a drip loop of the...

My luna battery has 7 years and ~12000 miles. Still fine. Maybe 840 charges. I fully charge twice a year, rest of time 85-90% max. I use a timer to shut off charger early.

If you are out alone, it is nice to carry 3 tubes, a folding tire, an air pump, a fairly complete set of tools. My mommy is not going to come pick me up after something breaks, she is deceased. Plenty of water, rain gear, sometimes a map or a gps in a rain pouch. Stretch frame cargo bikes...

Hydraulic brakes are necessary for downhill mountain bike racers that wear out a pad in one trip. They are self adjusting until the pad wears out. Then with new pads you may need a repairman to get them to not leak. I adjust my front cable brake about every 1000 miles or 6 months. Takes about...

There will be a lot of house siding sold in LA the next year. Made in USA, whereever the trees come from they have to replace those houses. Lots of toilets, sinks, refrigerators, ranges, sold. Steel, yeah they may not sell as much to car companies this year. Appliance steel sales will be up...

Money I invested 5 or 10 years ago is earning up to 12% dividends on my original investment. It is a good time to buy. People are panicked, which is great for those with cash to invest. Start a schwab account, use their recommended stocks to pick some stock. Mutual funds have the risk of...

I'm 40% in real estate, in the fastest growing county in Indiana. You should see the traffic jam at 16:00 out by the new data center. 9 miles from my 24 acre summer property with a trashy 1976 trailer on a beautiful view next to a lake. I checked my brokerage account as of 3/31. I was down...

You need to retake your physics course. Pay attention to units. Batteries do have a watt rating, but usually quoted in maximum amps. Different sizes of batteries come in wh rating - watthours. QR hub motors are a good way to get one stolen in less than a minute. Require at least a $3 crescent...

I joined a nearby gym when I lost endomorphine during 3 consecutive respiratory diseases over 2 months. I could not hardly walk. The gym had a arm-mill where I could get my heart rate up enough. 25 minutes 3 days a week, and the endo-morphine level returned to normal so I could ignore the pain...

I could not use 2mm spokes from Wald or DT Swiss, the bent end was wrong for holes in a ****ese motor. My LBS will make a 2 mm spoke of any length with their threading machine, which are useless in a hub motor. Right length 2.5 mm spokes were not stocked in the USA. I had to order twice, as the...
