Yeah lmao
Me forgetting my ebike isn't a soortbike
Need a new wheel or?
That is thread broken from spoke
just a new spoke and nipple (or multiple, check the rest), though ideally a rim with eyelets is gentler on spokes/nipples
but have i busted the rim part that holds the thread?
oh hm https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AVkutWBkWd8
i got the nipple out, after losing it inside the rim
cant work out how to get the spoke out though
i think i have to take off the brake disk
You may yes, some spokes require you to remove other spokes to get at them too, IIRC
bike shops do spoke replacement pretty often.
and even after i did that i still had to hammer the spoke out
lol
right i would have had to undo 2 others
So I was installing a new seat, waiting for my torque wrench to click (it's set to 1 NM, the max rated of this screw is 15)
Still no click but I sure heard it when the hex screw I was tightening snapped in half
Whoops!
Iv done that. The head on the other side brazing fails and Flys across the garage never to be seen again. Until. It gets under my foot and make me fall
Yep I found both sides haha
I can just replace this screw right? Call an LBS and they might have it? Or should I contact the manufacturer of my seat post?
ehhh depends
how "special" is ur seat
It's a suspension seat post
Brooks saddle but nothing on the saddle broke
Thudbuster LT
ah the company probobly be best bet. but u might just need to ebay it
I think it's just a hex screw tbh
One sec
First photo is half of a hex screw stuck in something
Second photo is other half of broken hex screw
I guess I have to get this half out if I want to just replace the other bit
ya might jus tbe a hex bolt, but what u can do is take it to home depot, and check the bolt checker.the thing is hopefully the threads arent messed up on the female side
looks like Cane Creek actually stocks the replacement parts on their websites
probably cheaper if i go to home depot but this is easier and i know it will work

i dont trust carbon. im too fat
yeah this shit terrifies me
Uhhhh nope
0/10
Dat money saved doe
By buying carbon? Did they really save anything haha
Assuming they were probably cheap ones
I saw a gravel *carbon* fork yesterday that had shocks (true grit I think is the name)
It was $1000 so I noped on out of that listing
lol
ü§ò
dayum
damn how hard u case that shiz
lmao wtf happened
@timk Obviously need to crank the amps up a little higher, you still got a couple teeth left
I was in the tallest gear, and went full throttle starting on a decent incline
Lmao
Of course it was on a busy road, the driver behind face palmed when she saw what happened
Lucky I wasn’t actually moving yet
This is just BBS02 @ 25A
So ~1.2kW
My RD is bent also, confused as to why
ooof
glad the driver behind you wasn't in motion at the time
Me too ü§û
what gear were u in? tallest as in smallest cog? damn, good thing i never start rolling on motor power alone just incase XD
42/11
Lekkie support were awesome
The newer chainrings are revised for strength
They gave me a discount towards the replacement
I might go for a 46 this time but actually use gears properly üòÇ
i got a 42t i havent gotten around to installing yet
I never tried the Bafang steel chainring but this thing never dropped the chain... well at least not until today üòÇ
kinda hard to blame it for dropping the chain when it explodified
ohhh yeah full throttle in highest gear is not fun
@EPHIIOS does yours have the spokes angled the other way out of interest?
not sure id have to go look...dont feel like going down to the garage to look lol. ill look tomorrow and let u know. but i bought the 32t (currently installed) like a year and a half ago maybe more?
No worries mate don’t make the effort
Mine will be here soon hopefully, I’ll take comparison pics
im surprised u blew it up. i ride at full 1500w regularly, thou i usually only start in the first 4 or so gears if i can
and im heavy so is my bike. 385 lbs combined not carying cargo
Apparently this first revision they put the spokes angled the wrong way
My bike is a lightweight alloy road bike and I’m not very heavy
But I do normally just leave it in the top gear 24/7 üòÇ
im guessing i have the good one then XD
yikes, look at this generic scooter video

00:30 it's taking off

idiot
That ending though, like "what scooter..."
this is how close scooter kid is when they start putting their foot out to react
bit late to do much at that point üòê
oh hey, balkan language
he's... not happy
Clearly
'that is that, god am i lucky' *rocket launch* 'that is lucky, *remarkably versatile mother's pussy insult*, if i had put it in my car - what could've happened, fuck you-*end*'
lol that doom cloud before it ignites.
Lol top news: military now using sketchy scooter batteries instead of smoke rounds. They double as incendiary devices. This top military official. Had this to say: well, you see, pretty much we chuck one at em. It tricks em with just a couple poofs, and when they least expect it a nice big cloud of lithium fumes and burning plastic. And a bonus is it lights everything on fire for us!
Soon to be a war crime
sounds like white phosphor with extra steps
lol
yes
