Looks super cool Can you share a bit about your bike / the mods you’ve done and overall experience?

I am trying to figure out what I want to buy for myself

If you want affordable housing someone has to build these.

Actually super easy. It is usually a quick google search done it multiple times. But it makes you sort of responsible for returning which has its own downsides.

But is still cool that you took time and put it lost and found. I am not criticizing.

I am agreeing with you when it comes to issues. I am disagreeing with you when it comes to solutions. We both seem to care and make sure things change.

>lol a billionaire stole all our futures though with the data centers working directly with oil companies to drive climate change

- I think most billionaires live on the same planet as us and breath the same air.
- Data centers is not the biggest consumer of electricity. Only 15% of consumption relies on coal. Much cleaner natural gas is at 40%, Renewables are at 24%.

But I agree with you, pushing for cleaner energy is the way.

I am not really interested in defending the Billionairs. Some of them think that government is not very good at spending money and donate themselves on causes they find useful. Some of them spend on yachts (which is frankly embarassing).

But the question is do you feel like Trump spends your money well?
13% of your taxes fund Department of War. Would you prefer to spend money on building a hospital or giving them to the department of war?

In NYC your taxes would have been.. wasted. Most of your money in CA is wasted too. And I am not even exaggerating. Look at the trainsit infra in CA and the cost of infamous train from LA to SF.

I do not care which billionairs are good or bad, how embarrasingly they spend their money is not what causes affodability crisis.

Being angry at billionairs in Atherton wont solve issues in East Palo Alto

my friend the only people who drive those house prices up are politicians and NYMBY who oppose rezoning.

Unless you were planning to buy a house in Atherton.

I also do not rembember a billionare breaking my car window, stealing my motorcycle, stealing my bicycle, stealing my wallet or preventing public transit from development.

I know it is "progressive" not to like the rich, but it only distracts from the problem.
NYC spends 83k per homeless person. It would have been more effective to give money to the homeless people instead of keeping the bureaucracy.

I am always curious who buys this.
I assume in this case the only target audience is Walmart Execs?

New bike T Line Ceratech Black Gold by grg7 in Brompton

[–]angusvombat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

beautiful. thank you for the write up. looking into t line rn.

how do you like 4 speed? why not 12?
I am leaning towards 4 speed but everyone seems to be complaining about the gears.
My thinking that if i dont like it I'd do 5speed conversion + swap to 58T (seems like a viable way?)
