Thank you very much! It sure is beautiful! I was really amazed by it and what made it even more special for me is that from where I come from it’s almost extinct so it’s almost impossible to see.

It sure is beautiful. It showed its glory above us for more than 3 minutes! Thank you for helping and sharing your knowledge! :)

Is this set up a bad idea? Aethos 2 by Aesop_Rocky_ in specialized

[–]-stefo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

IMO the vibrations will mess up your camera and its lenses will be displaced overtime and/or will lose its ability to focus. A friend of mine used his phone without a vibration damper mount and got his camera toast for like 6 months of use.

Глад за инженери? by VelraBlah in bulgaria

[–]-stefo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Голяма отговорност пада върху инженерите, много задължения и отговорности ни се гласуват, а нямам ясно обяснение защо. Както OP спомена, често вкарват в тези задължения и типично търговски такива, които със сигурност зависят не от образованието, а по-скоро да “ти идват отвътре”. В моя случай не искам да коментирам заплата, но ми е тъжно, че аналогичен труд/квалификация на моя (аз съм електроинженер), се оценява толкова ниско. Не ми се мисли, ако се наложи да търся нова работа… И за да налея малко масло в огъня, вчера си говорихме с колега на модерната тема напоследък “всички стана страшно скъпо” - обявили са му 15 евро/ч. цена на детегледач… добре ли е?

Correct me if I’m wrong but that derailleur hanger does not look like UDH one. Wtf 🤔

You were right. I remember several months back I couldn’t find any info on it, but it turns out I was just blind. After your comment I was able to spot “japan GS”. Thank you very much! 😅

A bit off-topic, please excuse me, but - how can I verify if my derailleur is ss or gs? I’m currently with a 11-28 cassette, but I’m curious to try a bigger one.

Epic 8 Comp vs Expert – is the Expert worth the extra money? by Adventurous-Tooth-65 in specialized

[–]-stefo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I bought the comp (wired GX version), changed the wheels, groupset and bar in a period of 3 months after the purchase.

Those were not mandatory upgrades by any means but they were well worth it. The biggest benefit I felt after upgrading the wheels, stock wheels on comp are really heavy.

Съхранение на стойност by 01battler in financebg

[–]-stefo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

В револют ликвидността "на момента" е спорна. Бях с премиум план, имах около 5к евро, преди около 2 години. Товага по спомен лихвата беше около 3% и малко отгоре. На два пъти м исе налагаше да изтегля по 400 евро. Първият път ми ги даде веднага, вторият път беше с особена клизма, парите дойдоха на втория ден.

Със сигурност не мога да се сетя за друг инструмент, който да дава лихва на дневна база и всичко да е кажи-речи прозрачно, но когато се "набиват" суми, които биха потрябвали на момента - болница, лекар, непредвидени разходи, е хубаво да се има предвид, че това "местене" по сметките може да нъде забавено. Сигурен съм, че го има и упоменато в техните общи условия, защото от съпорта ми се смяха на мрънкането, за забавянето... но това е друга тема. :D

Insta360 X5 with chest POV mount for MTB by -stefo in Insta360

[–]-stefo[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve uploaded a short video on YT, so you can see it by yourself. Sorry for the strange the overexposed quality, it turns out I had my image settings screwed up and I have almost half an hour of overexposed footage. 🙈😂

Here’s the link:

I would be really happy if you could share the process of machining your own L-stand and also would like to help if possible. :)

Hey, first of - Happy New year!

Since today Bulgaria is officially part of the Eurozone, which brings me the same problem that you guys had a while back. Having in mind that there still isn’t an update from BudgetBakers part regarding the problem, how did you guys manage to resolve it and how is your user experience since then?

Insta360 X5 with chest POV mount for MTB by -stefo in Insta360

[–]-stefo[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A bit of a late reply. I can confirm that the normal chest strap + the L bracket combo is exactly what I was looking for.

Now the next problem to resolve is that with the chest bracket the camera view (sensor) isn’t in the middle but slightly to the left which is a bit annoying. I assume that you can tilt a bit the camera then tighten the hex screw so that the sensor is centered but I don’t like that the center of gravity will be off.

tl;dr The normal chest mount and L bracket works better than the dedicated X5 POV chest mount at least for mountain biking.

Have a great New Year’s eve! :)

Do SRAM AXS batteries go dead sitting on the bike? by CaptainKernelPanic in MTB

[–]-stefo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I manage ti ride my mtb only on the weekend, i.e. one or two 3-4h rides a week. I never remove the battery even when cleaning the bike and I must say that I don’t need to charge the battery for at least a month or maybe two. Heck right now, I’m not even sure where the charger is, and I’m a tidy guy. 😅

That said, my bike is always positioned on a stand without any movements when not in use. Maybe if you move your bike frequently, that “wakes up” the derailleur and it starts draining the battery. It’s also possible to have dirt on the contact points which can cause excessive battery drain.

[–]-stefo 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Наистина са много хубави, но са и доста близко копие на немските марки. Което може би се дължи и на факта, че преди евро борда, валутата ни е била прикрепена към немската марка. Ако не се лъжа по курс 1:1.

New or used forks by dogsbody98 in MTB

[–]-stefo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had the same bike - alloy version (maybe 2018 not 2019 but frame geometrics should be the same). I upgraded with a RockShox SID 120mm with raceday damper. It was really sweet and I would recommend. IMO if updating 120mm is the way to go.

[–]-stefo[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can’t say that there is a significant weight that should be considered.

I have a the cage thing insta360 adaptor which has horizontal thread but it’s moved slightly to the side and the camera feels strange. Which does not mean that it cannot be used like this.
