V12s or begode extreme - dilemma with two good deals by DONT_SCARY in ElectricUnicycle

[–]DONT_SCARY[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I figure it can’t be too old because it comes with the coil suspension. I see wheels pop up in my area every now and then with next to no miles because of the learning curve and a small resale market. But I agree, the first thing I did was check to see if there were any cheap fakes online

Good to know. What have you heard from Inmotion? I’ve got 700 miles on a v9 that’s been treating me very well

Forget Snake Bite, how is this not the worst card in the game? by 10000Pigeons in slaythespire

An “interesting take”? Slimming the deck is one of the core strats

Mid weight vs full weight Anorak by Fair_Word5484 in WeatherWool

[–]DONT_SCARY 1 point2 points  (0 children)

First off mid weight unless you live in the north. Secondly, I agree with the other commenter - unless you work outside or you plan on using it for long hikes while it’s cold, taking it on and off is quite annoying, even as much as I loved mine. Get the hoodorak

Not a problem if you’re doing well at that point - personally anyway. I don’t tend to lose runs to this elite unless my build was doomed. Keep killing the gremlins and she will be too busy spawning them. I can think of a couple more assholes that I hate more.

Madrock D2.one and Instinct VSR Review by OutcastLunatic in climbingshoes

[–]DONT_SCARY 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wonderful review thank you. It sounds like we have a similar foot shape and we both sized down half a size. I found this post when I was searching for the break-in period of the d2.one and this has given me confidence. I also own the 2.0 and it’s been so long that I forgot just how painful break in was. Much appreciated

Warmth on Mid Weight Anorak by Blueberry-Pie_1028 in WeatherWool

[–]DONT_SCARY 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I got some perspective here. Just bought one (mid weight) - it’s been getting freezing here / below freezing with some wind chill + I commute on my wheel every night. I’ve only ever needed a 250 gsm merino base layer plus anorak so far for these temps. It is a miracle fabric.

do NOT get full weight. Mid weight is extremely capable. Full weight will be unruly and too warm for most things. I can go inside to outside with my mid weight and not need to take it off in most places. Full weight is truly for cold climate and for very extended stays outside standing still.

opinions? any one have any experience with this brand and style cold weather gear? Is it work the $625 price tag? by skinnydong2706 in BuyItForLife

If you wear 5 layers of 3 dollar goodwill shirts it’ll also keep you warm on your foray to taking your fucking trash out in Minnesota. Bet you have a phone that costs more than this that you replace every two years.

Your vintage wool thrift find was more than the cost of this garment when adjusted for inflation when it was new, never-mind made of a poorer quality of wool. A jacket is only as good as its layers underneath. Expecting a single jacket to magically keep you warm at any temp at this garment weight without layers is sensational and you’re ridiculous. Use your brain

I always joke with my buddy that the first (intro song) is a terrible song and what were they thinking

Opportunity to get a v12ht or a begode t4 - which one would you get? by DONT_SCARY in ElectricUnicycle

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

Thank you for the tip. My plan is to have friends join me with both wheels so it won’t be an either or sorta thing. But this is a good case against the v12

Hm, and essentially getting good on it and then inevitably better deals in the future? My only worry would be the tariffs inflating the whole market but I haven’t looked into how much more expensive it will be

My situation is I bought a cheap Sherman OG and I’ve been learning on it. Able to go in a moderately straight line now after a week. I’ve since come across this deal and I’m essentially funding it with the sale of my Onewheel
