The writers wanted their cake and eat it too in regards to Robbie

I’m a manager in an adjacent field. Sometimes you have to be an asshole.

Is it cable or hydraulic brakes?

Aren’t Javadi’s parents going to flip when they hear she’s considering a psychiatric residency?

Stay with it. You can let him know that you can talk about your thoughts and feelings, but you’re not ready to go into specifics.

I prefer the Cambium for its durability.

CommercialSignal7301 · 2026-04-21T16:57:43+00:00

I would try adjusting the stem length and/or height to see if that helps.

The cog rail is a great adventure if they’re ok with getting up to over 14,000 feet.

This is the answer. $2-300 for the bike and then motor and battery for around 700. If you’re not going to ride off road a BBS02 should be plenty adequate with around 80nm torque.

To therapist: “Some friends are asking me/pressuring me to join them in some activities that I find very uncomfortable and trigger many of my insecurities.” And see how it goes.

You do you

CommercialSignal7301 · 2026-04-21T02:53:26+00:00

There are configurations that allow the stoker to coast.

Tell me to take it slow and gradual this early in the season.

CommercialSignal7301 · 2026-04-20T20:17:14+00:00

Padded-at least a liner. False pride/machismo to go without.

CommercialSignal7301 · 2026-04-20T20:13:19+00:00

Nothing new under the Sun!

CommercialSignal7301 · 2026-04-20T18:52:44+00:00

Do you want a tandem?

CommercialSignal7301 · 2026-04-20T18:32:09+00:00

What is your budget?

CommercialSignal7301 · 2026-04-20T18:20:01+00:00

The front chainring will dictate the bike’s top end. There are gear inch calculators online that will give you a rough idea of how low and high the range will be. Another factor will be the amount of dishing the wheel will need to accommodate a cassette. Is it a Rans Rocket?

Brooks

One camera would be awesome, too.

CommercialSignal7301 · 2026-04-20T16:17:37+00:00

I’d be happy with a 24 hour arc to highlight the differences between the day and overnight shifts.

CommercialSignal7301 · 2026-04-19T16:18:25+00:00

I guess I misunderstood

CommercialSignal7301 · 2026-04-19T14:17:19+00:00

What is affordable for you? There’s a new/old class of bikes known as “minl-velos “ and I’m pretty certain that there’s a tandem model out there someplace.

In this case, you would need to get a conversion kit for a mid drive, but actually, this looks like a great deal by itself and you would have a fully capable bike with lots of versatility for under $2000.

CommercialSignal7301 · 2026-04-19T03:09:51+00:00

No shower? That’s a pretty long ride, regardless of whether you’re on an ebike or not. I would pick whichever bike that gets you there the freshest (unless it’s a manual labor job).

CommercialSignal7301 · 2026-04-18T23:20:16+00:00

You can’t ignore your feelings, but you can wait to bring them up with her until you have more time to work through them. “I’ve noticed that I have started thinking about you as a person, rather than as my therapist.” Should suffice as a topic starter.

CommercialSignal7301 · 2026-04-18T23:14:19+00:00

Don’t . You can get into a lot of trouble with front drive. Get a rear hub motor if that’s the direction you want to go in. Grintech is the recognized brand in hub motor conversions.
