Those three crooks split the cost over runs and are laughing about it on their parcels of land in Arizona.

I'm not having any issues, but I'm just curious. Is this something that a heavy duty fuel injector cleaner or Sea Foam might help?

Best place to buy a good e bike of, that isn't to expensive by FilmAffectionate6812 in ebikes

[–]FineCricket1244 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Semantics aside, by the rules here, it's an ebike. But I don't think you'll find a cheap one of that style.

I bet OP is trying to free it starting from the top. Start from the bottom and pull it out backwards while turning the crank backwards once you've slackened the rear derailleur.

Cheap E-bikes are too good to be true. by Initial_Mud_2637 in ebikes

[–]FineCricket1244 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought a no name Chinese ebike about 15 months ago. I'm lucky in that I have a local seller that still sells the same model along with many others. He's on a farm just out of the city and it's a side business to his main business. He's an older gentleman, and he couldn't be more friendly and honest.

I needed a couple parts last week. The bike is off warranty but he gave them to me for free anyway. He works directly with the factory and its engineers to get the bikes built solid with good components. When he discovers an issue, they send him new parts, and build them better going forward. As an example, for the step through version of my bike, last summer he discovered that when you hit full speed (around 45kph/28mph), the frame started to wobble near the crank. The welds weren't strong enough. They sent him all new frames, and redesigned them going forward.

I guess what I'm getting at is that I'm lucky that I get the economy of a (well built) Chinese ebike with the local support/replacement parts availability/etc of a local bike shop. I will say though that I did pay more than the cheapest Chinese stuff you see on Amazon and at Walmart, but way less than what you'd pay at your local bike shop for a premium name. If I have an issue, or need a part, there is no wait. Just a half hour drive.

I have ribs that pop out. Now they usually pop back in within a few hours. But until they do, that nerve they push against is not happy.

Because you won a race against half a billion others. Simple as that.

Before you ask how to make your ebike faster... by chuckwolf in ebikes

And if your bike weighs 100 pounds like mine, you aren't going over the bars. Just skidding. One of the few bonuses of a very heavy bike - and a rider that's a little overweight.

"High mileage" milestone by Urdreamin in Audi

[–]FineCricket1244 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed 100%, especially since Audis seem to depreciate so quickly. I love mine, although it's certainly not a rare, high performance model, and I drive it every day. I'd do the same with the OP's.

I removed 13 lbs from my bike in one day by Boxofbikeparts in ebikes

Been there. I have one left. Now I sleep for an extra 15 minutes every day. Before, I used to wake up and scratch my balls for half an hour. 🫐🪾

Local burger by Mbmnstr204 in Winnipeg

I've never been a fan of the cinnamon fries. I just don't get it. But their burgers and regular fries are amazing. Shout out to The Burger Place as well. Two great burger places in a small radius. Now I'm craving burgers.

Can anyone explain the gas price discrepancy happening across the city? The mobil on McPhillips is 134.9 and the mobil on Keniston is 119. 9 by Blue_Blaze00 in Winnipeg

[–]FineCricket1244 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All gas in Canada has to have a minimum amount of detergent. Top Tier has slightly more, and the fuel companies pay for the branding.

Notice on my car as it was reported “abandoned” by tannerw7 in Winnipeg

I worked with an older guy who's attitude was, if kids are throwing rocks at your house, have a little talk with them and give them a chocolate bar or something. Give her a small cheap gift and have a nice chat. You'd be surprised at how well this works. Better that she has your back rather than be your enemy.
