Yeah but there was a MARKED CROSS WALK and the ramp was ONLY ON ONE SIDE
its proud lip jutting out like mount rushmore
amidst the dusky grime of the slick asphalt
I passed that stern sentinel unmarked
my wheel half-true did not wish to chance an encounter with so surly a watchman of Feet
one who'd rival the most un-slaked fetishist
Well I was going to say that you have a way with words that I could never wish to achieve, now I don’t even want to wish to achieve such words
that was redundant
When I bought my bike, the tyres were only 10PSI according to the car tyre inflator I was using
you have nothing to fear budy

I reel in the smarmy tone of the literato
god that pun was so juicy
it makes me shiver to have had so intimate an experience with a turn of phrase
I drowned before I could get the joke.
It revolves around "reel" and "reel in"
being that I reel in the tone and dumb it down
but also that it causes me to reel
in some sort of paroxysm of enjoyment
so it's simultaneously saying that I enjoy that type of tone
OK
but also reduce it
for colloquial conversation

My laptop screen cracked cuz I threwy mouse at it lol
So fragile
good news you can disasemble the screen and look at numbers on backa nd buy a replacement for a few bucks
Or get Louis Ross to fix it if its a mac. üòõ
louis
u got a customer
should I shill him a new screen assembly
Prob need another internal screen so..
Appreciate
My hex nuts were loose and hit and bump and it flew off and poof! But still works fine. I need a nice sticker on it
Wuh woh
Stickerbomb it
my rear hub finally is dying. which suprised it took this long considering how heavy i am, and how cheap the bike was. anyone got any recommenditions for a 190mm bolt through 32-36h 100mm hub? running a bbshd 36t blingring at 1500w. only real requirement is that if its not a 36h id need a new rim, and can at least hold 2-3 gears
What broke on the rear hub?
its a wibblewobblin a tiny bit, grinding (which iv tuned it so now it just clunks a bit) and a bunch of other small issues that are adding up to at least a new hub if not a new wheel. its a goose, so right off the bad garbage bin parts, but its held up to my abuse, and none of the shops close to me got new bikes atm i can migrate to atm.
the inner race on the freewheel side is scored enough that its gonna get worse. should last me about another month or so from its noises. LBS has a oem wheel for it suprisingly which would be a fix for now, but id rather have something good quality at least in the back since my fattness is putting alot of strain on it lol
Are you talking loose ball bearings or cartridge?
nah is old school cheapo hub. loose balls with a permanent inner race and a screw in outer race. if the cup was the issue i could just replace em, but its all stuff that cant be easily replaced, or are part of the hub.
this kind:
cup isnt on the pic, but there is a lil plate that holds the balls in with half the bearing race in it
Dang cup and cone usually holds up well enough
ya but the bike is like 5 years old, beat to hell before i juiced it, beat even more, 30mph on NYC streets with no shocks and my 300lb jiggle on top.
Did your freehub hold up to the motor torque?
suprisingly yes. even with the slaps from stop and go
teeth are good on the gears, and the freewheel still clicks and spins as good as it always did.
nah thats too slow. if i got no traffic trying to run me over i do, but ppl here got 0 patience and the millisecond light turns green they honk and try to kill u
Its something I never understand
The sheer impatience of drivers to get to the next congested traffic light
sometimes they try to kill you then honk when the fail
iv had to punch and kick cars at least a few times a month
like a spark

Brb going to upload this in to the electronics server
lol
Bad spot weld or shorted a cell?
Excellent spot weld
Just needed to use copper strip instead of nickel
Oh
I’m joking, that’s a bad spot weld. He punctured a cell doing that
Lol I wasn’t sure we were talking about the same thing and oh is my go to response for that
Punctured a cell with a spot weld wow
akbar: rofl.
Yea don't weld nickel with copper-like power levels.. and 0 pulse control
@Deleted User Like bruh, buy a 555 and a mosfet of your choice to run your giant solenoid relay thing
He even said he had an arduino iirc
And maybe a battery that has consistent discharge current profile where your main current limiting factor is the wiring used and not the batteries internal state of charge/tempature.
(aka, use longer, thick wires that won't heat up and change resistance, and use a battery that is batshit insane overkill, like a 800CCA car battery with a battery charger connected)
Smh calling me out saying PCBs are environmentally unfriendly then treating lipos like they are disposable single use items that self destruct when discharged
You could even put a small circuit on the battery (Diode+resistor+capacitor) and put your DMM on that, to get a 'min voltage' reading
So you could stop/adjust the time scale if you detect the voltage under load changing dramatically.
Arduino has analog input so he could have used that and programmed it to automatically adjust for the voltage drop
10-bit 9kHz ADC
You also might want to note that spot welds typically don't have a large HAZ zone around them:
https://youtu.be/ublFs7IU05c?t=560 you can see here even fresh outta the machine they don't have any HAZ, so its not that they are cleaning it off either.
idk what that means, but what i do think i hvae created is an inside joke or a meme
LOL
what in the hell
lmao
if I had more money and sense, this would have been a PCB:
and this:
maximum density, because uh, what if I wanted to use that 1 square inch later?
Bonus points if you can figure out the purpose of the 4 transistors on the bottom left.
With so many cheap pcb houses
Most people see it as a why not
@Deleted User you don’t need a pcb to connect 2 things to an arduino lol
I’d just use jumper wires for that
But think of the environmental impact of the arduino pcb!
bet he just chucked that punctured cell in to the trash as well
How bad is this damage to the brake line?
is it hydraulic?
@ethan_stark
^^^
If its hydraulic, thats a moral wound waiting to open and take you with it to the grave
if its mechanical, tis but a scratch unless you can see huge gouged metal on the side of the cable your not showing.
if hydraulic, REPLACE ASAP
if cable, you are fine
