That's what I mean - I'm sure they did all that. Thieves change too. Anyone can make a licence etc. I don't know the details but it would have been a scam that was relatively new; I bet the insurance companies knew about it though.
Yes, but by coverage you mean insurance? Insurance companies? There's the rub. A bike shop here had two ebikes stolen while being demo'd. I don't know the details of the theft, but insurance didn't cover it because it wasn't shop lifting. I thought I was insured myself once - there is usually a...
Doesn't this depend on the policy? The policy could be anything; eg 50% of retail value. Ultimately does the bike shop accept responsibility for the loss? Is it their fault?
Insurance is a business to make money and nothing else. They do whatever they can get away with, even if it is illegal - chances are clients won't chase it up; if they do, insurance just pays as they should have anyway. If they can find a way not to pay, they will. Doesn't history attest to this?
I'm not sure you achieved less confusion, but maybe added to it? :ROFLMAO:
Maybe start with "what is the strongest spoked wheel"? One that is symmetrical where each spoke is sharing the same force. Remember the era of rim brakes? The front wheel was strongest if it was correctly made because...
Me. I took a gamble. My bikes prior to ebike are circa 2012, so a few geometry changes too. Picked a frame size based on reach, watched reviews. I'm always value oriented so went for what was supposedly the best value brand here in Aus (bang for buck). I wanted aluminium and thought shimano...
Yep, I'm one of those eco dudes. Not only that, I knocked eco mode down to med, from the standard high (shimano). It's still a huge amount of assistance. As zimmer said, if you can ride legally it will pay you to do so, esp. on the road. If you have an altercation with a registered vehicle and...
I wouldn't be surprised if they were all clutched. I always see that in still shots too.
On my older analogue bikes (2 x 10) they are not clutched, but I have chain keepers which do a better job where it is needed. One of the downsides of 1x systems is that these are no longer viable with the...
Awesome. I've been processing most of what I cut down. 30 mins on the chainsaw amounts to 2 or 3 hours with hatchet and axe going through the limbs - twig size to 2" diameter kindling from the branches etc. It seems silly to split bigger pieces for kindling.
Yes. It was sitting in used engine oil for a week or so. Some of the wedge was missing; I replaced that. It looks like it was loose from new. The grain in the handle couldn't be more wrong. I'm surprised it's held up. I gave it a fair bit of use felling invasive pine trees, big ones. I had great...
Men are mostly irresponsible re our interests, justifications etc. Well, that's only if we compare ourselves to women (huge generalisation here) although I did have a girlfriend once with a purpose built walk in storage room for her shoes! It is probably better for your mental health if you join...
I'm all for cats wearing a bell to protect wildlife. I'd go for one that is 1 to 1.5 kg. It should solve your problem too, depending on where you leave the cat :unsure:
I got to hold the splitter I thought looked good in a local mega hardware store here (bunnings). It has a 3.5lb (1.59kg) head and a handle length that is between the x25 and the x27 - those axes were there for me to compare them. It looks well made and felt light.
I'm sure that fiskars have...
