I laugh with you. For me it would also be in freezing weather and I would bust open an oil covered knuckle and then I would bag my head on a tie rod.

It was one of those cranks on a Raleigh Mixte that I learned the lesson of over tightening at 14. Up until then everything got tightened as hard a I could. That BB should be replaced with a cartridge and the steel cranks with Al.

DHAG and cable stretch. Yesterday I boiled my new chain in wax and replaced the freewheel cluster on the bike I will ride today in Butter & Eggs. I also washed it, scrubbing the tires. Butter & Eggs is a huge parade. https://petalumadowntown.com/butter-eggs-parade.html

Space based data centers do not have problems with power and cooling. They also do not have greasy chains. https://www.datacenterknowledge.com/next-gen-data-centers/data-center-space-race-can-orbital-s-satellites-overcome-doubts-

See the new thread on AB 1557!

They are lumping illegal motorcycles with legal eBikes and want to make them in the whippy image of @Stefan Mikes. Cargo moms with two kids and groceries should be able to leave the car behind and take an adequately assisted bike up a hill to home. This would make their bikes unlawful and...

To answer OP, I have a digital bathroom type scale and I can set tere. I use it to estimate bike weights and shipping bikes. First weighing one end then the other and adding them. I would put a sideways milk crate for the correct height on it and make that the new zero. Then I would put my...

Having a prior means it won't go to a jury next time. Guilty.

There is energy loss with any drivetrain. Here you get re-gen and reverse.

They were identified and processed and the bikes were impounded. So now they are setup with a record for a second offence.

The thing is all you need to do is pedal the generator with a spent battery. Because you are always pedaling, the battery does not go flat. The battery is not even really needed, because it acts only as a reservoir. Electrical failure would only be due to something like sabotage.

Price point under the magic $2000 and dealer support. It handed Specialized its own ass. Here have this. https://xds.co/products/sp5-plus?_pos=2&_fid=c5b54cbdf&_ss=c

I was considering converting a RIVIAN to a VIVIAN on the left side and make it a IRAN on the right..

That is so cool. Turning thorns and poison ivy into stew and BBQ for free, and fire protection as a bonus.

Although better than gas mowers, I am not into lawn deserts. One of my sisters lived in eastern San Diego county in a gated community with four acre lots and McMansions. People would pump wells there in the desert by Arizona and Mexico to create huge chemically enhanced laws. No birds or other...

I go for the low impact. Bikes over cars, sheep and goats over mowers. I have not participated in making a contrail in 15 years. I have not owned a car since January 2018. I am not trolling it, I am doing it.

It is possible to mow, ariate, and maintain grasses and weeds and to fertilize with no tech. Weeds even poison ivy become delicious shish kebab and steaks. It is why Mt. Vernon was so lovely 250 years-ago. Some are rediscovering this resource. Movable solar powered fences help. Shrub shoots get...

No chain, no belt to maintain. No gears. All the feel and with regen.

It is planned obsolescence styling that doesn't do anything. @kevinmccune, I saw one of these 1959 El Caminos last week and it looked like it just came off the showroom floor. Because cars do not rot here, no road salt, and because American Graffiti was filmed here, there is a vintage car...
