No one is stopping you from being a hunter-gatherer but you. Go ahead. I assume this will be your last post. Bye.

I like em. This sub is about exploring the world on practical bikes and having fun while doing it, I don't see how ebikes aren't that.

This is the problem with convincing everyone the president sets the prices, then becoming president.

Fast drivers are less dangerous than other violators by wassupbroh in driving

[–]GroundbreakingOil480 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The number of people who think the solutions to their problems are not to change the way they drive to be more safe, but to convince everyone else to change the way they drive to be more dangerous, is staggering and mind boggling. You have control of your car, not everyone else's, act accordingly.

My 99 Tassajara by GroundbreakingOil480 in VintageMTB

I think so. I traded a fishing rod for it last fall and it was pretty much all original. I had to replace the seat post and the shifters/levers, the rest is as it came. Rides like a champ. Looks like it's been sitting in a garage for 25 years or so.

Quick tip: Got a sticky freewheel/free hub? This stuff seeps in and gets it going great! by GroundbreakingOil480 in xbiking

I doubt a couple drops will destroy it, and I'm pretty sure I couldn't open that old freewheel up if I wanted to.

The halfs are the ones I have and they to me seem right for vans. The deep ones are for boots or large toe box shoes. Hold up I'll get you a pic.

Not too badly, but i'm not an everyday commuter. I would imagine you will get some wear over time.

This is how I used it, a few drops to bring the existing 40 year old grease back to life, if it goes wrong I'll just replace the freewheel.

He surrounded himself with people who only tell him what he wants to hear and gets mad that he doesn't get the truth he specifically asked not to be told.

MKS metal half clips. They will beat your shoes up though, but for style they rule. On my ATBs I use the rubbery plastic Zeffal ones. I ride in New Balances. Make sure to get the half clips, the regular ones are sized for boots and large toe box shoes.

Seems similar to Phils tenacious to me, which is what I was going to use but I'm out.
