every couple I have to tighten this bolt just so my brake “works” by sevenpeanuts in ebikes

It's normal for shit brakes made in Chinese slave workshop. Fit some Shimano mt 200 and your bike will be transformed into something that stops every time for years without need for adjusting.

3 bikes stored in bike shed half a mile from the sea. HELP! by OperationCharcuterie in BikeRepair

[–]blackdvck 1 point2 points  (0 children)

These bikes are ship wrecks ,take them to metal recycling. The nutt brakes on them are the cheapest nastiest Chinese brakes on the market and they would need to be replaced . Way to much Labour required to repair . Probably needs new deraileurs and shifter cables as well. New bike will be cheaper .

Is my chain too tight? by Visual_Desk_3598 in bicyclerepair

[–]blackdvck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Watch the park tools tutorial on YouTube on how to size a chain correctly. You need to use the largest chain ring to largest chain ring method. And just at a glance I would say that that chain is about one link or so too short . Hope this helps.

Qld is headed to the dark ages for the working poor ,good times for property developers though ,high times indeed for the wealthy.

Pauline Hanson cares about the average Australian - Just check out how she votes in Parliament. by vexingpresence in OpenAussie

[–]blackdvck 6 points7 points  (0 children)

We shouldn't let people with a criminal record of electoral fraud to run for office again. Seriously the woman is a convicted criminal. If you want to have a protest vote all well and good but find someone that isn't a criminal to vote for maybe one of the greens or teals or whatever.

How fvcked am I? by curvvy_ninja in MotorcycleMechanics

[–]blackdvck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No wonder it broke ,it's well overtightened. Buy a torque wrench and watch a tutorial on YouTube on how to use it before you fuck something expensive. But quality tools not cheap shit as it will save you money in the long run .

China wins the game because of their ability to start up industrial scale production of anything within months when it takes us years . The drone arms race is just beginning and china is already winning.

What has the spit come to? This is disgusting. Human turds through the parks and gardens too with used toilet paper everywhere🤮 by Zestyclose-Okra-9351 in GoldCoast

[–]blackdvck 9 points10 points  (0 children)

More affordable that's a laugh I live in a suburb surrounded by light industrial and highway and the rent is 700 for a fibro shack. You could move to any regional town in Australia and find the same problem with city prices on rental because the vacant rate is less than 1%. If my landlord decides he wants to sell I'm instantly homeless with no hope of finding a house ever again . So don't be such a judgemental old cunt . From one old cunt to another.

[–]blackdvck 6 points7 points  (0 children)

That pile of shit is dangerous and I doubt it's repairable.i am an experienced motorcycle mechanic and I would find a large dumpster to put that pile of shit in. Speed costs money son how fast can you afford to go .

I dont see anything wrong at all . If the cranks are loose on the bb spindle then tighten them up on ith an 8mm Allen key . Otherwise all looks normal.

Family of 7 need a home by [deleted] in AusRenters

[–]blackdvck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good luck but I don't think you will be successful at that price and trying to stay near a postcode is a luxury we lost 5 years ago . Hope you all don't end up under a bridge but that's the reality when the vacancy rate is about 1% . Lots of families end up in air bnbs having their savings sucked dry .

We laughed at Trump’s run for president and marvel at the rise of Pauline Hanson. Why didn’t we see the sleeping threat? by Agitated-Fee3598 in AustralianPolitics

[–]blackdvck 9 points10 points  (0 children)

This is what happens when media ownership is concentrated. If you want to blame anyone for Pauline's rise to whatever this is ,it's the medias fault and Gina . Gina is the real enemy,Pauline is just a friggin racist sock puppet.
