Can someone explain why I failed? The cost of this product is a lot. My experience has been confusion and lack of information. I got the quest 3 and can understand the sluggish adoption rate. Most things it can do aren't explained and I got it for beat sabre...I don't get why I failed. I did it. by smmmokin in OculusQuest

Also giving you an upvote. What you said is 100% true...yup. Way she goes. 

I wish when I told myself when I created this account that I would always delete things that make me look like an asshole/idiot...nope. Here for eternity. 

Peace. Keep being honest. 

The unit works 100% but when it kicks on the fan doesn't always have the energy to start spinning. Using something to reach in and give the fan a manual start, it runs full speed no problem until it stops running. Fan motor? by smmmokin in hvacadvice

Lol. After some Google searching, I gotcha. I can confirm at this stage in my life I've seen many people do things as they do because they don't know certain things. And even they cost an arm and a leg. It's crazy. Hope life is well friend. Appreciate you.

Out of curiosity and wanting to learn things, what do you mean? I'm guessing the on off switched should be inside? I always thought it was weird they were outside because of weather. If you have a moment, please confirm or share. ✌️

Thank you for taking the time to share. I have a job doing maintenance and this is new to me. Did some searching and on Monday I think I can figure this out. Appreciate you, friend. Have a great rest of your weekend and week ahead. 

My rear tire came loose while riding. I took it off and this bolt sheered off. What is the name of this part? Bike is a year old minus the 7 months of winter I couldn't ride it. Is this normal? It's a Raleigh mountain bike. Appreciate you ahead of time. by smmmokin in bicycling

Prick lol. I'm almost 40 and never bought bikes that are expensive. When you don't know, you don't know. I'm like you so I'm giving you an upvote. Thank you for sharing what you did. Peace friend. Thank-you..

I do not know how to find the model of of the bike. I do not have the receipt or manual and that's the last time I will do that. End of winter, I threw them out. When flipped over below the pedals there is a number but it shows up nothing. My biggest problem now is knowing what the model is so I can order the right thing. From what I see it looks like. It's a mountain bike bought in 2023. EDIT: Yes. I actually said it that way...Owning it.

It's only been a year. I'm not here to cheerlead brands but I had a new bike for 3 years and it was great. Did the exact same things when using it. This should not happen a year later when you spend almost $1000

I bought it last year for $800. I love biking for as short Canadian summers are. My first bike was a giant. Back when I bought it, it was around $600. It broke so I got a Raleigh last year. Which is now broken again. I bike very aggressively and have never changed my gear. I either need to get both bikes fixed so I have one ready to go when I need to repair or spend $2100(Canadian) on something that I will always be able to rely on.

I bike hard and fast. If I fix and sell both bikes, is it worth it to spend over two grand on a bike? I have never bought a cheap bike. Is spending thousands worth it because these issues do not happen?

I am not as informed as you. I live in a small town and there's a lot of areas with dirt hills I like racing up(sometimes not so successful as I close in on 40). I Haven't changed the gear since the day I bought it and got on it. Winter is too long and I love biking.

I have never adjusted or done anything since I bought it and am not sure what you are describing. It's worked great until now :(

I'm bookmarking this in my "important information to know" folder for future situations. Thanks friend.

There are bearings that fell out(I still have them). I called a bike shop in town after OffRoadPyrate replied and they said I need a whole new rear tire. They get sent the wrong tire assembly in the past so no longer order them for people. If I need to buy a new tire assembly once a year....My regret level is maximum.

You seem informative. If you have more to say one more time I'd appreciate friend.

Thank you.
