and moist |
and cheap rubber |
bought used so can't say for sure but they've been sitting |
Yeah, they've been sitting in the sun for a long time, I can tell üòÇ |
tires are 8 dollars a piece so i could upgrade but new lookin tires will make the bike more attractive to steal |
might've been sitting outside as theres a bunch of surface rust, the paint isn't that faded tho |
unlike my other bike which i just recently discovered was actually dark blue not almost white üòÇ |
Where can you get tires for 8 dollars each?!! |
action bigbox store. Dont care if its trash it's 8 dollars |
don't think they're in the US |
Oh, you're in Europe. Europe has a very different bike tire market vs North America. |
Hint: tires in Europe are usually much cheaper vs the US. üôÇ |
Cheap tires vs 25km/h top assisted speed ü§î |
I'll choose the cheap tires :think: |
bikes are more common here even though my EU country is quite car based, so with economy of scale prices are low |
$32 might seem low but when you only earn $45 per day yeah that's why the price makes sense |
(counting 2 bikes new tires) |
our cheap tires are like 20 dollars lol |
I choose bell and goodyears on the cheap-end |
oh yeah those are no name brand BUT actually have puncture protection for that price as well |
which is funny |
bell and goodyear are both big brands here |
they just usually focus on higher-end or other sectors. |
so their cheap stuff gets sent to Walmart and Target. |
Yeah, because the tires are so thick üòÇ |
On that topic, I got a good ebike seat a few weeks ago from Bell, and it was so good. |
but yeah I've got a 20" knobby bmx tire from goodyear just sitting downstairs idk what to do with |
It has a pressure relief channel, good foam, and elastomer springs. |
It made everything more comfortable with heavy riding. |
Ironically, without any gear, it didn't really change anything üòÇ |
this sucker? |
nono i meant the $8 ones goodyear isn't really noname |
No actually. It's a 2022 model Comfort 1025 seat. |
i'll replace on failure, tho in winter they probably don't carry stock of the bike stuff |
lord that is a fat seat |
Yes, but it was so worth it when going grocery shopping. |
I already have a seat kinda like that |
but from Giant |
My bike is really heavy when mega grocery shopping happens(backpack, rear rack and front rack), so having some form of saddle suspension is ü¶∏‚Äç‚ôÇÔ∏è |
I have both springs and a suspension seatpost |
I wouldnt use it in the winter lol |
seat sags, so it's mildly annoying to try to mount while staying in optimal position |
wtf? how much did you pay? |
ehh it's got a lot of tread, it should be fiiiiiiine |
if it snows as much as here then yeah it'll be fine for mid-winter |
per beater? $11 |
too bad that's literally the purpose of those bikes to get me to uni from the train station in winter |
ill just add kiddie wheels so i can stay up |
lmfao, that's a really good idea for ice actually |
I have this guy coming after measuring my sit bones: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0813T32K7?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details&th=1&psc=1**** |
This pic labeled would be really nice... |
yes but thats all i have found |
and some 3d explosion draw where every part sits were also very nice^^ but i dont have |
So my bosch cargo bike motor died after 20k km, i checked the display cable, I checked the battery to motor cable, both seem to work fine on all wires. Still not a sign of life or communication between motor and battery/display as the battery soc isn't correctly being displayed |
Is there anything to check inside of the motor that could be replaced? |
Does the crankset main axle have play? |
Like, the bottom bracket? |
They tend to develop play at around that mileage, and them the play opens the seals up and kills the mechanicals. |
Side to side there is minimal play |
No doesn't feel like abnormal play |
That side to side play shouldn't exist. Please be advised. Bosch motor bearing seals don't do their primary job of preventing water, dust and debris from entering the motor mechanicals if there is any play as you demo'd. |
My advise is to have a full tear-down and service performed by a bike shop at this time. Which sounds about fair for it having 20k km |
And I mean like, literally the seals you can see from the exterior go *directly* into all the mechanicals |
I can find used 1-3k km motors for around 2-300€ here locally |
That's probably more affordable then a rebuild of my motor that definitely has some electrical damage |
@Deleted User what do you think between those options |
You cannot work on this unless you have registered Bosch software, which only bicycle shops have. |
A bicycle shop will easily be able to diagnose the electronic problem and service the system. |
Attempting to work on it yourself will lock you out of your ebike. |
My DD hub motor makes a high pitch sound at a certain rpm range. It happens during throttle acceleration. Is it fried? |
Did it make that sound before? |
@Dimitris or is it a new sound? |
It is a new sound. It's not sounding terrible but definitely there. And it only does it under load, not coasting or top speed. |
Did you up the voltage of your system? |
No haven't done anything to the setup since I bought it 3 years ago |
I actually wanted to get statorade to improve cooling but ended up not getting it |
You should record it to say more then I guess |
You mean the sound? |
Yeah |
It's a higher pitch motor sound like a surron motor if you've heard one |
It's not unusual or banging or anything |
I'll try tho good idea |
It might be your motor bearings getting bit loose combined with if your motor controller is square wave and it starts to resonate during higher phase amps |
It is square wave! Where should I start to troubleshoot? |
You might need to replace bearings but if there is no slack at bearings I wouldn't worry about it yet |
Thank you I'll have a look |
broke my first spoke today |
probably because an old lady forced me to take a 30deg angle to the ground after deciding to turn into me when i was turning right |
Ur liable for ur own damage for not maintaining your lane, rip |
Or something like dat idk smh |
I've slep 80% of my life away the last 2 days |
the Right on red lane has the right of way over left on green??? |
unless it's a turn signal |
you don't turn into the intersection unless cross traffic is clear |
Forcing someone otb just because you're too impatient for the intersection to clear is bad |
I triggered u haha. Goal achieved |
Get rekted idk smdh |
yeah drivers won't observe their surroundings that well so it would be good training for everybody to use bikes etc for while to get perspective what not paying attention does |
we are complacent |
because we think the big hunk of metal will save us |
