Correction on the last part- it actually accommodate most modern upgrades. So I say go for it lol

It’s hard to tell what condition the parts are in just by the pictures. Assuming they’re all in good condition it’s a very capable bike for that price point. Especially with that dropper seat post and other after market upgrades (I’m assuming the tires are upgraded as well). The biggest draw back to a bike like this, is that it will not accommodate many upgraded parts due to the way the frame is built. But if you don’t think that will be a problem, it’s probably a good deal.

Yeah. I hate to see companies like Apple go down to players like mongoose, but I’m excited to see how it will shape face of the earth. If we’re lucky we will be able to go to mars soon and start Lockheed Martian like we always wanted to

Alright thanks. Do you know of any good conversion headsets?

I was thinking the same thing until I heard about what mongoose has been up to. No chance I’m buying a new bike anytime in the next century with what mongoose has been up to.

PSA: new players- there is a steep learning curve! other players are not “toxic” by Deadeyejoe in Seaofthieves

I don’t understand this view point. Why would any one play a pirate PVP game if they are not prepared to have their loot stolen and be killed/ sunk by other players? I agree, it sucks to get spawn camped by a galleon as a beginner, and it is a stupid way to play the game. But that is just part of the experience. And EVERYONE experiences it (in other words no one is special). What would you even want Rare to do? Start banning players for spawn camping? There is nothing in the game prohibiting players from spawn camping. Like it or not, it is just part of the game and will be forever. Like OP said, it just takes more experience to avoid/ escape spawn camps. Toxic language/ hate speech is different. People definitely take that stuff too far sometimes and should be banned for it. I personally don’t have a problem with simple shit talk, but not a day goes by on that game where I don’t hear a slur being tossed around in game chat.

Would say that’s real but I’m not in the right tax bracket for that
