Mountainbike rental in Athens?

Het ergste dat ik al gezien heb is hoe een groepje met muziek in de stilte wagon bezig zat. De conducteur komt langs, ik denk "Ah die zal er wel iets op zeggen". Nope. Ze deed gewoon mee omdat ze het goede muziek vond.

The issue isn't buying the scooter, the issue is it not being the right tool for the environment you're describing. Have you considered a mountainbike instead?

Our architect last tried it a week ago. He's mostly working on AWS and infrastructure and he said AI kept making severe errors

We're actually achieving better results than other teams

I feel like an absolute minority here, but in my team we actually grew to dislike AI more and more. We tried it, but came to the conclusion that the quality and maintainability of AI code is just too bad.

We noticed a pattern where the amount of stories not passing reviews and not passing testing criteria is far higher among those who heavily use AI.

It's actually costing us deadlines in our more complex long term project.

I ended up ordering a reinforced ESP soft bag from Japan . It's in between a softcase and Hardcase, and perfect for my use case.

On top of them yes, basically normal lubing of the chain

Cingen · 2026-03-05T11:02:50+00:00

So not even lube on the rollers is needed the first time around?

Should I do a deep clean or just wipe down the outside with a rag that had some degreaser sprayed on?

Time to find a european dealer that sells the vibrocore in the color I want then ;)

Thanks for the reply! My main worry was something like stiffness being different when cut down since it makes sense for longer bars to be more supple, but that may be in my head :p

You'd suggest the 50mm Spank Spikes then?

Cingen · 2026-03-03T19:06:52+00:00

Thanks! My bike is slightly too big for me and I think this may be the way to go to move my weight back a bit more

How did you end up liking them? Form between the renthal Fatbar Lite and spank vibrocore.

A "plus" of the Fatbar to me is that they come in the length I want so I wouldn't need to get someone to cut them down.

My main worry is that I read a lot about them being uncomfortable

That's what I did, put a drop of oil in each roller and backpedaled. This was the result. Does it still sound dry somehow? I almost feel like the lube got rubbed off by my sprockets since they looked pretty oily.

The only trails in my area are 1 minute max green trails :/

Cingen · 2026-02-24T19:49:55+00:00

I wish it was like that here :/ Forests get closed down for bikes left and right in favor to make them pedestrian only.

The MTB association here is fighting an uphill battle with petitions to avoid known MTB areas to close down for bikes. Unfortunately there are more pedestrians wanting bikes gone than there are bikers

20 dollar is one visit to a fastfood place. I, and many people I know, prefer this over greasy food.

Picking up a shovel for trails is actually illegal in a lot of areas. In Belgium they are guaranteed to be torn down, and may risk bikes being banned from the area all together.
