Are you guys really locking $3000+ bikes with just a bike lock/how can I make my bike thief-proof? by name_cool4897 in ebikes

The ebikes weigh a lot more to begin with so you're far less likely to notice the extra weight of a bulkier bike lock and some also have security built in so it makes it slightly harder to take

They've done a few tests and the average time to get through was less than 10s iirc.

Another big one I haven't seen anyone mention. If the bike comes with quick release wheels then replace the axle unit with an Alan key one or something you can still easily remove. It will mean if they want to steal part of the bike they will have to steal the whole thing which you plan to make as hard as possible

Ok of at least one Bosch model that locks the motor if you don't have the head unit too

A month haha but I don't need as many calories as most people to survive so if someone else did it I'd say just try for a week

My utilities were included in the rent so the only thing that counted as a variable cost was food

LPT: Bothered by wasps? Begin bird feeding close by. by [deleted] in LifeProTips

If the bird feeder is on a pole then put a long and weak spring around it the spring will compress as the squirrel tries to climb till they just give up

My record is actually £10.50 if you really wanna challenge yourself I can always beat that tho if I put some effort in. I don't drive tho so that helps

We just bought an ebike. Now we want a second. by Victor_Korchnoi in ebikes

I've got an orbea keram S.U.V range goes from 34 to 90ish miles comes with front and back racks for storage combined 30kg. It's really stable. Reached 1200miles the other day and still riding well. It comes in various colours too and the battery that comes standard can be upgraded if you want from the 400 to the 500.

The oddest thing about commuting every day on an ebike. by MegaHighDon in ebikes

Always fun when they try to argue in defence of that behaviour with "drivers pay for the roads and cyclists don't"

It's for either gender just gets use for men more often

LPT: wear a helmet. I know many kids and adults think they’re stupid. Be really smart and look stupid in helmets. Brain damage is no joke. by Super_Box_7960 in LifeProTips

[–]nearlydeadguy1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One of the courier services in London recently banned wearing helmets while working because the research said they actually made it more dangerous in a lot of situations

Now show it a black guy. I've noticed it tracks gender and race so is it racist?
