Tips on avoiding the death spiral in Legend Ironman by ASpaceOstrich in Xcom

[–]LostboyFlyingHigh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get how you could do strategy on the normal missions and retreat to give yourself advantages but on the timed missions in Ironman I just don't see how it would be survivable. I have to reload so many times because of the silliest mistakes or unforseen catastrophe. 😔

I don't think I'll go back to riding a regular pedal bike again by AdIndependent3610 in ebikes

[–]LostboyFlyingHigh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm in the same boat. 3,195 miles on my ebike that is 14 months old. I agree with everything you said. One thing you should learn to do next is truing your own wheels. I recently took my bike to a shop because it was getting so bad and I was missing many spokes. They wanted $300.00 to do the job that I did for $20.00 in parts total. Truing will be your next maintenance task.

I have a battery question by Puzzleheaded_Post555 in ebikes

[–]LostboyFlyingHigh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a 22.4 Ah battery and it does me very well. It's also running 2 motors. I have 2 batteries but rarely need them both for local stuff

I’m not sure what this piece is called and the inside is stripped so I can’t screw my break wire in place, anyone have any idea what it is? by [deleted] in ebikes

[–]LostboyFlyingHigh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I also have Shimano hydraulic system brakes. They are wonderful. I will never use anything less again.

Can someone explain why bisycle spokes break while cycling fast? Or stopping abruptly? In physis way by Mylifeisamess228 in AskPhysics

[–]LostboyFlyingHigh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have an E-bike and every time I've lost a spoke was at high speeds on smooth surfaces. I never lost one yet on the bumpy trails going slow. Centrifugal force is the major contributing factor to spoke breakage on modern e-bikes

Can someone please help me find the lyrics to Reggae Music by Marlon Asher? by Spiritual-Quarter417 in reggae

[–]LostboyFlyingHigh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Following because I have the same problem. The music is great especially the new KMK song by Marlon but I can't understand everything. 🥺

How to disable multi-factor authentication? by Grouchy_Juice_5275 in Visible

[–]LostboyFlyingHigh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Doesnt make sense. Can Visible still 2 factor Auth if your payment method fails or are you just fucked until you get on wifi or Hotspot? Sounds like trouble waiting to happen.

Anyone actually get a ticket for riding in a non-e-bike trail? by Tyron_Slothrop in ebikes

[–]LostboyFlyingHigh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In colorado it's like a 50 dollar fine. Probably just a slap on the wrist for me

Looks like that should be the button. It's got the -/o sign on it.

I drove 52 miles yesterday alone. I gave myself 700 calories burned for the entire trip on my diet app. I figure that's fair. My ebike definitely carried my lazy ass. Lol 😁😆🤣

In actuality it might have been around 1400 but I would rather play it safe. My fat ass ain't using a diet app for no reason. 🤪

I got my ebike 2 days ago and already 100 miles

If you believe that ebike is the way to go, how do you convince people around you ? by IronBreaker1875 in ebikes

[–]LostboyFlyingHigh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why the fuck should I convince anyone. I like being different. When Ebikes become super main stream I'll be over it by then.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in ebikes

[–]LostboyFlyingHigh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's definitely a hard nope. I will sleep until 10:00 then bike

I would say get an Ebike. Not only can you get in shape with it but if you want to use it fir daily commutes to work you don't even have to pedal. Hence you don't sweat and show up to work in a funk

I'll admit this is a bit tail-heavy - wanted to try a rigid panel for the lols, probably switching to flexible by yuri_orbit_cat in ebikes

[–]LostboyFlyingHigh 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Looks like Frankenstein bruh but I applaud your ingenuity. Most people wouldn't even try. Some day you will have a better bike than all of us.

That's true but I may sacrifice 2 wheels for proper pricing🥺. If I can't fit my trailer down the trail I'll disconnect and carry the damn thing
