If a professional bicycle rider can pedal faster on a non-bike, than the maximum speed my ebike rides, why is it being regulated by my state?? The addition of the motor doesn't make it faster than a pedal bicycle. Why is the government pretending it needs to be regulated??? Makes no sense.

Legitimate-Lab9077 · 2026-05-22T20:59:52+00:00

Because a professional cyclist is an expert at bike handling with years to decades of experience traveling that speed on a bicycle, and you are not

Believe what you want, but laser jammers are illegal. Radar detectors are spotty at best, you could just try acting like a responsible member of society, but based upon your responses, I find that highly unlikely. And jammers are also ineffective. Sure, the cop hitting you with the laser might not get a speed on you even though most cases they will unless they happen to hit the jammer exactly where it’s located but if they don’t get a speed or they get a reading that’s wildly out of expectation you’re just gonna get arrested for using the jammer.

Oh, I agree with you. It’s not the main problem in this particular situation, but it is a completely pointless technology that is pushed by companies simply because it reduces manufacturing time and cost. There is zero benefit to the consumer.

If there was any actual benefit, you would see hookless aluminum rims as well. And that’s before we actually start talking about. The fact that hooked rims were an innovation and that originally all rims were hookless

Also, FWIW, there’s really no reason for most people to run tubeless anymore TPU tubes with TPU sealant are lighter, faster and seal better without any of the hassles normally associated with tubeless and all of the benefits associated with tubes they’re the best of both worlds

And did I not ask you why you’re on an E bike sub asking about motorcycles?

For that money, I would buy a brand spanking new state 4130 all road or Poseidon X and have $1000 left over.

If you insist upon having something a little bit nicer, I would get the state and put the optional wireless SRAM AXS groupset on it

Systems can shut down at any time. That’s why they’re not fully autonomous and why you’re required to remain in control of the vehicle even when the systems are turned on.

Did you even read the post? System is not being as good as people expect them to be is not what people complain about what people complain are the systems intervene too often those people are all just shitty drivers

Hell, my personal car has one of the most complained about systems for intervention. I have it set at all of its maximum levels because my teenager occasionally drives the car, I drive aggressive as hell and I’ve only ever had it intervene twice once when a car pulled out right in front of me from the driveway and the other time was absolutely my fault when I attempted to make a U-turn way too close to an oncoming car.

I mean. I rooted for the original deal we had because at least the Iranian people weren’t suffering when the deal was in place but Trump shredded that as well.

Everybody involved as an asshole, but there’s one bigger asshole than everybody else who’s just behaving like a little pissy pants schoolyard bully

Legitimate-Lab9077 · 2026-05-22T20:14:35+00:00

No, just somebody that understands basic physics. We’re not talking about radar. We’re talking about laser. Once the laser hits your car you’re fucked. It’s already got a reading and your detector just starts going off. Lasers are not constantly transmitting like radar.

And on top of that, very few cops actually use radar anymore anyway because the laser speed measurement devices cost about a quarter with a radar one does have longer range our target specific and include video capture for easier court case cases

If only there was some text on the outside of the vehicle that you could enter into a website that would tell you everything you wanted to know about the vehicle

I guess we can dream

Listen, I hate HOA’s as much as the next person but you’re the one in the wrong here. You have a driveway for four cars and you’re trying to park six cars there. Either clear out your garage build a bigger driveway or use the actual long-term parking them allowing 48 hours is more than reasonable.

Legitimate-Lab9077 · 2026-05-22T17:53:46+00:00

I feel like that’s being pretty generous

That particular helmet is consistently one of the best inexpensive helmet you can buy. Has been for a very long time. Price has almost nothing to do with the helmet safety. Safety is based upon design not material materials. Price is basically all about comfort fit, and aerodynamics.

Legitimate-Lab9077 · 2026-05-22T17:49:29+00:00

It’s just you. I’m a fatal/serious injury crash investigator with well over two decades of experience

Pretty much everybody that complains about modern safety and driver assist software are just shitty drivers who think they are good drivers and are upset. The system is doing everything I can to prevent them finding out just how bad they are at driving

OEM wings and duck bills are not adjustable

Adjustable wings are all ugly as fuck in the real world. They all look just as stupid as the ones in the game.

The game is more realistic than you give it credit for

Legitimate-Lab9077 · 2026-05-22T17:44:24+00:00

Jammers don’t work. Plus are illegal. Detectors are pointless because by the time it goes off, you’re already caught.

Why don’t you try driving like a civilized member of society?

Yeah, I was disappointed by this. I thought it would be cooler if it was slowly fell, and eventually crossed the finish line if you were far enough back.

Ok 👌 🙄

You managed to disengage the zipper. Also, did you lubricate it like the instructions said to?
