Since you are a Tasmanian i will answer you , I honestly did not think it needed photographic proof , most people[including Tasmanians] have seen a valve sticking thru a rim[think double vision after hitting that low branch], and its literally a 5 min job, take tyre off,drill, put tyre, tubes in...
Pinch flats on rocks, could be one a week to one every few months , other advantages are less rolling resistance , less ballooning of the tube/tubes , more balanced wheel , in the event of puncture one tube hold air, low cost etc etc. No more sub questions.....
Right O then , need to start again , i just don't have the time to respond to all the question , comments, fan mail etc , so from now on , first to ask a question , i will respond, THEN the next person can post/ ask a question ,[comprende].
For the "Forest Gumps" that keep asking about the...
Drill the hole opposite to the original hole , stick in the 2 tubes beside each other[ just the cheap$5 tubes from kmart etc , 1.95], with plenty of baby powder . Pressures im still experimenting with , but can do any combination . Pretty sure i will get a puncture sometime, let you know.
Well, during my ban , i did it ,and it works great . In a sharp rocky section of the track [where iv had several pinch flats] it was fine , wheel is more balanced , rolling resistance is better,, and , the dimwit that suggested that the tubes will catch fire from the friction , no it didn't . I...
Everything in your post is either wrong and or opposite, ban me then and keep the toxic culture going, no shortage of it in the embt world, you are leading the pack[and stop guessing ,thats where you are failing]
Ok then , but it wasn't too much to ask the moderators to ban 6 people , to make the forum more pleasant , I can pretty much guarantee every time you ban the few fools,stirrers, smart arses , you get many more posters/participants[even the ones who have left], the mods did not even delete my...
It was a proper question , but all i got was rude smart arse comments , which i reported , it seems the moderator is pretty slack with his code of conduct rules and taking the piss also . Why would any manufacturer have anything to do with this bullying clown show.
Before i drill a second valve hole , has anyone used 2 tubes in the rear tyre/tire? im thinking 2 light weight tubes which will be lighter than a heavy duty tube filled with sealant , i am a cheap arse so it will be a cheap thing to do . Not really sure about the pressures eg 2x10psi=20psi or...
Contact your countries consumer protection office , see what the after sales support laws are on ebikes. Cars,bikes , washing machines etc manufacturers need to supply parts for their product for 10 years, to sell them legally
Ok , ill check that out , i did hammer out the lower race and installed it on the new forks , but if there is any rubbing ill need to pull it all apart again.
They are called 'Nanlio', 32mm air forks from alixpress , they are 1.7kg lighter than the original Suntour forks [Reid etrail 2 bike], going from bad to less bad is a huge improvment:D
Just fitted some new forks[from China] , they did come with this ring[ and a starnut], i used the existing bearing races , but is this ring a bearing race ? or some sort of adapter/spacer??. Sorry for the noob question , but love to know what its actual correct job is?[not a dust seal as its...
Dont know about the miles/km , but once it slips in the top gear , its change time. [at the moment it will not drive in top , so im past it,,way past it ]:ROFLMAO:
What is a bit strange is why the other Japanese moto companies are not making MTBs/EMTBs , Honda had a go 10 years ago but gave up, even when the Yamaha dual suspension BMX came out , Kawasaki and Suzuki came out with their own[I had the Suzuki:ROFLMAO:].
Also, replace the star nut regularly , its a 3 piece item that may appear to be working perfectly, but , the 2 claws can work loose and the shaft bit can also become loose and or flex but still function ,[ i recently bought the tool and some starnuts[few $] and replaced one[for no reason] and...
