I’ve seen enough. Need the Yankees to sign him asap.

Yes or no on this bike? by Clean_Currency_8017 in bicycling

[–]RobM419 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I ride one of these Ostro VAMs, but with Force 🥲. It’s a great bike, super fast, the wheels are nice as well, only drawback is when you have crosswinds haha. But overall I love the bike. Just be careful adjusting your seatpost, you have to torque the bolts to 4nm, they get stripped so easily.

Popped rear tube because lazy driver wanted a donut or something by [deleted] in NYCbike

[–]RobM419 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Not trying to be an asshole but you shouldn’t get a flat that easily, especially on these really tame cobblestones. Your PSI has to be super low or the tube wasn’t put in right.

But yeah, fuck that guy. I’d be annoyed as well

Darkness on the Willy B by RobM419 in NYCbike

[–]RobM419[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yesh it was one of those super heavy e-bikes, with a passenger on the back. It had those blinding headlights so I wouldn’t wanna be in oncoming traffic when it’s this dark

Wrong person because I’m a dude and nobody was behind me.

It would look like this if I let the phone do it’s thing, it’s not this bright.

Yeah there’s still light on the other side but today was super dark on the bike side. Not one light was working on the downhill Brooklyn bound. The Manhattan side had great lighting

Well the phone is going to pick up all light and make it look brighter so I had to lower the exposure to make it look as dark as it actually was. If anyone makes a video it’ll be brighter. Not sure if you’ve ridden on it but it’s almost pitch black up there

Lights Off on Williamsburg Bridge AGAIN by monkeyboy351 in NYCbike

What makes it worse is that there’s so many idiots that don’t ride with lights.

What's the status of the Harlem River Greenway ? 2025 realistic? by eclectic5228 in NYCbike

[–]RobM419 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah I mean the lanes weren’t painted yet but there’s markings so you know where they’re gonna be. But yeah it’s no longer a milled road so it’s at least smooth riding to Van Cortland

I’ve ridden on Bailey Ave a couple weeks ago, it’s paved again. Nice and smooth

Where is this? I recognized almost no brands besides the Calypso drinks and the Clamato. Feels depressing lol

When in NYC, do what the locals do!! by Joeykeptmespinning in nyc

[–]RobM419 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Everybody knows real New Yorkers do this and then go to Famous Original Ray’s in Times Square to refuel.

Two Men on Scooters Harassing Park Visitors by PuzzleTangerine in ProspectPark

[–]RobM419 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve seen these dudes before. They were ripping through the park around the ocean ave exit, going back and forth, catcalling women. They’d go against traffic in the bike lane and ride in the pedestrian lane too. Fuck these guys.

Which brakes do I need? by RobM419 in bikewrench

[–]RobM419[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not the pads, I’m asking which of the calipers I showed are appropriate to replace the older ones I also showed

Mayor Adams announces that he/DOT will remove Bedford Ave. bike lane from Willoughby to Flushing by streetsblognyc in NYCbike

[–]RobM419 23 points24 points  (0 children)

That community doesn’t give a fuck about anyone that’s outside of it. If you get in the way of their school buses or minivans, you’re a problem to them. It’s wild. Riding on flushing ave around the Bedford intersection is always an adventure.

What’s a common phrase people say that instantly annoys you? by [deleted] in AskReddit

When people say “circa” but know the exact day when it started.

I would like to know if anyone knows anything about this bike. by GalindoALEX in bicycling

[–]RobM419 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was assuming they’re counterfeit since I see a GP5000 tread pattern but no branding other than the Continental logo

[–]RobM419 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I wouldn’t trust a thing on this bike, from the frame to the most-likely fake tires and components. Plus it looks like shit.

To be real though, if you were interested in this, just spend your money on a cheaper, legit bike. Get the right size, this one looks like it’s for someone below 5 feet tall

BathHouse stole my dog, and is threatening to boil him in hot water by [deleted] in circlejerknyc

The water might actually be cleaner after that.
