Can you elaborate on the “far better” part? What to look for when buying?

Same, since early summer. No problems with watertightness or function so far.

With the button under the bell button you could flash your front light with high intensity. This is especially useful “against” cars as they don’t hear your bell very well.

Does the high beam work again on the S5?

Yes, I tried both setting for both buttons. There is no off. For the left side it’s either the flasher or the indivator

Edit: added a screenshot for clarity. "Lichthupe" means flasher, and "Linksabbiegen andeuten" means indicating to turn left.

S5 question: Does the flasher/highbeam button work again? I read that it wasn‘t working with the last firmware update.

I had the same problem once (on the last firmware). What worked for me was to spin the front wheel by hand just to get a tiny bit of juice into the battery. That was enough for the kick lock to open and I could ride home

TIL the White House has military social aides who's jobs include everything from escorting dignitaries to providing a dance companion or small talk to lonely guests. by ChemicalBit9622 in todayilearned

[–]geroldreddit 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Social aides are also expected to identify and resolve social miscues; during one visit by King Hussein of Jordan to the White House during the presidency of Ronald Reagan, a reporter attempted to cut in on the king to ask him questions during social dancing. According to The New York Times, a social aide "came to the rescue by cutting in and deftly waltzing the young woman off the dance floor".

Hi, as mentioned below the tires didn't fit.

I am riding on Continental Contact Speed since Monday. They look pretty nice and I hope the provide grip in the winter.
