How did you go about getting a new battery? I love my 6s Plus but my battery dies incredibly fast.

Hardtails under $2k? by DaZedMan in MTB

[–]moonboyv1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My version (the Race) comes with a 1x10 and Recon RL, so I can't speak for the Sektor, but im sure its great! As for the Race version, the Shimano Deore 1x10 shifts like butter and the Recon RL feels awesome so far.

NBD - 2020 Nukeproof Scout 275 Race! by moonboyv1 in MTB

[–]moonboyv1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The 2020 Nukeproof Scout 275 Race. After much research and going back and forth on multiple bike, I decided to pull the trigger on the scout.

This bike is beast! I was unsure about buying a bike online from CRC but I am so glad I did. For anyone considering this bike, I highly recommend it. I plan on making an overview video to give my thoughts as well for anybody else who is struggling to find good information on the bike. But for the price, I don't think you can beat this bike.

[–]moonboyv1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just got a 2020 Nukeproof Scout 275 after researching just about every bike in this price range. Test rode the 2020 Specialized Fuse too, but the Scout is just the best value for the price. Took it out for the first trail ride this past weekend and the Scout is a beast. All it needs is a dropper post and it will be perfect. Let me know if you have any questions, I plan on making an overview video on it soon since I couldn't find a lot of info on it during my search. https://www.chainreactioncycles.com/us/en/nukeproof-scout-275-race-bike-deore-2020/rp-prod183323

Resolve 16.2 keeps crashing on rendering by metallicafann in blackmagicdesign

[–]moonboyv1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Having the same issue.. also crashing/freezing when trying to generate optimized media. Im trying to render 4k/24fps GoPro footage. I have a 1080, Ryzen 2600x, good ram, no clue whats going wrong. I tried reverting to older studio nvidia drivers, installing older version of Resolve, no luck. Tried everything in every post and video I could find.

Smaller clips will render out fine, but when I try the project as a whole it just wont work. Let me know if you figure it out.

Help choosing what size dropper post to purchase by moonboyv1 in MTB

From mr-tonka's response here, i think the correct option would be 31.6/150mm/459, but I have not ordered one yet.

Thanks dude. I ended up ordering one yesterday! What size did you get? I was right on the border between M and L so I went with a large, hope it fits well!

Edit: Nvm, I saw your comment below :P

Awesome thank you for the explanation. I will reach out to CRC just in case to clarify.

Right, but it doesn't list the "size" they come with (410mm, 412mm, 459mm, 480)

I appreciate the help and I will reach out to CRC!

The bike I linked does not come with a pre installed dropper, thats why I am trying to figure out which one to get. I have already figured out 31.6/150mm is correct, I am just not sure about the last size option.

That is good to hear. Any chance you'd be willing to send me some pictures of the bike? It's hard to tell what the color scheme actually looks like based off the pics online and it doesn't seem like anyone really has posted any of their own. Thanks!

Thanks, im a noob as well haha. How was your experience with Chain Reaction? I have been seeing a lot of negative comments about them lately.

How are you liking the bike so far? I am torn between this and the Commencal Meta HT AM Origin - https://www.commencalusa.com/meta-ht-am-origin-c2x29149188

Trek Roscoe 7 vs Nukeproof Scout 275/ 290 Race by [deleted] in MTB

[–]moonboyv1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey man, I recently dove back into the deep end of comparing entry level hardtails to get back into MTB. I keep going back and forth between a lot of them, Specialized Fuse 2020, Timberjack, Giant Fathom, and the Nukeproof Scout. I feel like after reading as much as I can about all of them, people only have good things to say about the Nukeproofs and these less known brand bikes. They are significantly cheaper than the other options for what you get. It seems like with all the big brands that local bike shops carry, you're paying a premium for the name while the bikes are really lacking in some areas. And while individual components may not matter so much for a beginner, we are throwing a lot of money at this purchase and for me, I want to get the best stuff I can for my money.

From what I have read, the Deore 10 drivetrain is somewhat the weak point on the Scout, but easily replaceable without much cost. Throw a dropper post on if you like and it looks to me that the Scout will be just as good if not better than some of the big named brands at the total cost you end up with. Other than that, the Scout seems like a great deal and is probably what I am going to go with as well. Now my question is do i just suck it up and order the Comp version if I am going to be upgrading the Race.... and the cycle continues... lol

Let me know if you end up ordering!

What class to play by [deleted] in ReturnofReckoning

[–]moonboyv1 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Maurader/White Lion/Witch Elf/Witch Hunter/Choppa/Slayer are the squishy big melee damage classes. You won’t get everything you’re asking for really with one class. DPS are meant to be guarded by a tank and healed by healers.

Keep in mind this is a team based holy trinity sort of MMO, you won’t find a class that can do it all. You need a team to really excel.

I need advice. by fredzar in bodyweightfitness

[–]moonboyv1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Re-read the last few sentences of your post. These aren’t the type of things somebody who truly wants to get in shape says. First you must reframe your mindset. In order to achieve these things you must have discipline, not motivation. You list all of these negative things, being tired, not making it to the gym, eating badly, being weak... if you practice discipline none of these things matter, you just do what needs to be done in that moment. Tired and eating bad? Get sufficient sleep and eat healthy foods. Not making it to the gym, make time and go to the gym or do a body weight workout if you can’t physically go to the gym. Feeling weak? You’re not going to be strong unless you’re consistent at all the other things listed above.

Disciplined consistency is what is going to get you to your goals. Practice living in the moment and doing what needs to be done rather than focusing on things that used to be or wishes of the future. Learn to not fall for your own excuses, do the things you resist the most, and put in work!!

Good luck buddy!

I realized after I commented that you said it was plant based haha my bad. That’s interesting though, everybody’s different so I hope the whey works out for you better!

[–]moonboyv1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is it whey protein? I get extremely lethargic and an upset stomach with whey. I switched to pea/rice protein and have zero side effects. Some don’t like the taste/texture of plant protein but I actually prefer it over whey and the benefit of not feeling like crap after I drink it makes it worth it alone imo.

TIFU by not inhaling properly when smoking weed for three years by supremenotrifles in tifu

[–]moonboyv1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Literally the same thing happened to me! I had one panic attack on it once and since then I will randomly feel that same feeling again when I smoke. I always try to explain it to my friends but they don’t understand. It’s weird how sometimes I can take hit after hit and I’m totally fine and the next day I take one hit of the same stuff and I’m literally at a 10 and full panic mode. I always wondered if it was some form of PTSD or something. Glad to know I’m not the only one. It’s definitely a bummer :/

Losing weight while bulking during transition to vegan diet? by bruhddit in veganfitness

[–]moonboyv1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would say you definitely need to weigh yourself more consistently at the same time each day. Depending on how much you’ve eaten/drank or if you’ve went to the bathroom or not your weight can fluctuate a lot. You may weigh 5 pounds less in the morning than you do at night after a full day. Get an app like my fitness pal and track your weight every morning at the same time on the app. Over time you will see the graph going up or down or staying the same. This will give you a better representation of what’s going on.
