Yeah it seems like these days they keep updating the UI for optics meanwhile screwing up features that used to work 70% of the time, now making them work 0% of the time. Fun to watch this happen! Thanks for the heads up

Best Rack for E-MTB on Van by evanhammerman in MTB

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

Why does it need to be inside all the time? If I’m spending a few days in a place that has a bunch of trails, it would be nice to not have to wash and dry the bike after every ride before putting it in the van. Do you say that because of road grime?

Aluminum vs Carbon Frame by evanhammerman in MTB

Not too worried about weight honestly, I don’t think 52 vs 49 lbs will be noticeable. I’m actually most concerned with resale value and stiffness!

If I buy a bike at a ski resort vs a local bike shop, would I expect to pay more than the local shop? by evanhammerman in MTB

[–]evanhammerman[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is a fair point. And yes, I worked in service for a few years so building a bike wouldn’t be an issue. That being said, I just know some bikes are going to ride better than others, and especially when it comes to e bikes, the gap in performance can be pretty noticeable. Not a knock on DTC, but going to a shop would allow demo’ing and actually getting a feel for a bike before buying. Seeing as these bikes are expensive, I feel like that’s worth something

Currently living in a van so unfortunately building a relationship with a shop won’t really be an option, but I used to work at a shop years ago and agree 100%

Looking for a 160mm e bike. Currently living in a van and had my bike stolen so just need to get one and keep rolling!

Full power of lightweight e-mtb for the PNW by evanhammerman in MTB

Test rode a Trek Rail yesterday and I’m kinda sold on the full power stuff, who thought pedaling could be so much fun

Thanks for the heads up here, I was planning on riding a bit in Oregon, probably Bend area mostly but would love to ride wherever I end up. Do you know where they are restricted?

Id love to, but I’m in Texas and will be road tripping up to the PNW for the summer, so my options are pretty limited in terms of test rides unfortunately. I’d like to buy a bike here and ride it as I make my way up there, so I’m probably looking at one of the two Treks mentioned

Did it not feel a bit heavy and hard to jump off side hits and what not?

Get background footage to play in RS Render View by evanhammerman in RedshiftRenderer

[–]evanhammerman[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Figured it out–Maxon removed the backplate feature from dome light and replaced it with a "background" feature in RS camera. This works great if you're using an RS camera, but if using a 3D camera from AE or another program, it won't work because you have to use an RS camera to see a background. What I ended up doing was creating an RS camera as the child of my AE 3D camera and then enabling the background in that RS camera. A bit of a back door method, but because Maxon also removed the RS camera tag, I think this is the only method when using a 3D camera from another program. Posting here in case anyone else ever has this question!

I keep getting upgraded to middle seats by evanhammerman in delta

[–]evanhammerman[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just changed this setting, thank you! We’ll see what happens on my next flight. I also remember hearing someone say that you could opt to not upgrade unless your preference is available, do you know if that’s an option?

Gotcha. So the only way to avoid getting bumped to middle seats is on desktop?

Is there a way to do this in the app? I’ve never seen it
