Random stuff off youtube. I'm still trying to figure out how to save music to my phone to listen to with bluetooth earpieces. 😂 I guess I have to go out and buy each track from a provider somewhere.
Edit: honestly I started poaching a bunch of my music from Navy youtube vids.
We're going through the insurance thing now, will update how it goes. The unfortunate thing is we had upgraded the brakes, rotor, tires, and added a dropper post, but none of that would be covered, only the original purchase equipment qualifies for the insurance.
I think your bike looks great...
Awesome, thanks for posting, was thinking of doing the same thing, as you can keep the mudguards fitted if desired.
In other news, apparently the Thron is a desirable bike, because my wife used her bike once to commute to her work, locked it up in front of her building, and came back that...
Along similar lines with bike lights, we've started looking for lighted bike pedals. I thought that there would be some magnetic induction pedals available, but clearly there must be something with the physics that prohibits using the turning motion of the pedals to power a small LED light...
What I think is rather telling, with regard to the current organization of society (liberalism), is that many of these large monopolists may not (or are not) necessarily interested correcting the issue. Consider being a large monopolist, capable of preventing competitors from entering the...
If there are no trails for people to learn on, skills can't be developed, and the sport won't grow.
More importantly, the state of the existing trail is independent of any rider. People who are high-skilled don't use the trail, because it's a poorly constructed trail (15-30% gradient, straight...
I'm a beginner :LOL:.
I can't ask for feedback because the trail is not authorized (long story: the new trail replaces an existing trail that is labelled for beginners but was built entirely along a fall line, and it has become so steep, rutted, and rocky that its not safe to ride for entry...
I'm hoping there are some smarter more experienced folks here that have an answer.
I'm building a trail for beginners (we have none here), and I had thought I had chosen a fairly mellow but intelligent line through the woods, which I proceeded to clear. After a brief rough in, I tried riding...
You know what, maybe we need to rethink the concept entirely. What if it was a small box with 550 cord in it, sprung for retraction. You pull it out like Luke Skywalker and the end has a little hook, so you hook your bike to objects, rather than stand it on a flat surface?
A kickstand in this situation likely would have prevented that bear encounter, given that the bear would have acknowledged immediately that only a gentleman would take care to balance his bike with a slender metal filament on a highly uneven surface in the middle of the woods. Everyone knows...
In the UK it's not illegal. In Germany its illegal, which is the same in many other EU states (Spain, France, etc). In some US states it's illegal (Maryland, Louisiana, Ohio, and Rhode Island, etc). Depends where you live.
I use the bike for towing a child wagon fairly frequently, and it's really nice to have in those situations. A cartridge is one way to do it, it just slides in, so the rear of the stay is open, its threaded near the bottom bracket on the inside. The metal leg that extends has a clip on the...
