just use a tire liner |
like tannus armour |
@Lowtide get a big ass 500 pound magnet and put it an inch off the ground infront of your tire |
All you need to do is avoid manholes |
donbt forget the road steel plates |
though those have enough oil ull just slide across em anyways |
Well i avoid those anyway cause bumps |
Just dont do like big dad and forget the trailer magnets on |
Fukyamom |
Just ordered a hugeeee magnet, thanks for the advice. A huge one. |
Also ordered some lasers for those bugs. |
hope u got some pid and ai for those lasers. shoot them bugs no matter what. thou make sure u got enough resources to run the lasers, had them compete with shields for power and a squirrel was able to sink me |
I'll go for bike rides, collect metal with my HUGE magnet, then sell that metal for money. This is a good purchase |
i do that at work |
i have a pile of pure copper blocks next to my desk |
and a drawer full of high capacity drives and fans and power suppliers....and a google server |
Well next to my desk, an even bigger magnet, BIGGER laser, pure gold blocks. |
:p |
If I had a desk... I'd probably have that next to it. |
I have slime, I'll try that. |
darn wanna trade desks? |
im taking my 32in monitor thou |
You can keep that, I'll take the computer too |
ok sure, good thing u didnt say u wanted my other computer or my server |
üòõ |
Naah |
That's enough, maybe another time I'll grab those. |
Thanks! |
XD |
good u got the shitty tester machine for testing updates on horribly outdated hardware |
Nice! I'll let you know how much fun I'll have |
I'll put it on top of my huge magnet. |
honestly itll either work just fine, or fail before u even move it |
iv had to server some truely ancient machines that just the act of opening the case killed it |
XD |
That's horrible, glad to take this off your hands. I'll use it for an art project |
XD |
make sure to give all the spiders new homes. |
Nahhhh, they have to stay in that computer. If I find one in my room it's game over for them |
but they help! |
theres only two u gotta worry about, black widows and brown recluse |
I already have spider friends that help me, don't need too many cooks |
XD |
dang i broke a spoke and grins all out of the ones i need, i should've replaced them all a while back cause they've become rusty |
Already fixed it. Smallest hole :p |
Little patch. |
And now I got to install my seatpost. Happy again. |
Mum saved me from having to walk the bike home after a puncture |
imagine having the big old bag and no puncture repair |
gonna finallly get some marathon eplus yet |
I had a puncture repair kit |
Couldn’t find the source of the leak and my mum wasn’t that far away |
Shall I tell you what’s ironic? I went to lend a pump to a friend |
It’s when I got there I got a puncture |
lul |
the other day I was commenting on how my marathons have endured anything from broken glass to rose bushes |
turns out my front tire wasn't a marathon, it was a delta cruiser |
so either I'm really lucky or schwalbe's entry level line is better than I gave it credit for |
less weight on the front tyre dont forget |
yea even my speedsters didnt get flats in the front, it was all rear. |
My God. The horror |
Where's ur torque arms |
who needs torque arms when its rust welded |
Lol |
Structural rust |
Man the fact that thing hasn’t snapped or bent is impressive |
I'll scare you a bit more, its 52v pushing in 1500w |
Galvanic corrosion is the only thing preventing that from snapping like a twig |
I'm glad I'm not the only one with a le sketchy ride |
Steelisreal.jpg |
i keep my steel oiled to prevent rustynuts |
just lube them with red threadlock |
XD |
"Don't clean that.. its load bearing corrosion" |
Kinda same except not yet |
yeah i feel bad about neglecting my bike.. |
maybe after 7 years of winter commuting I'll give it a new drivetrain |
I hope you didnt change your cassette or chain in that time |
no they're all married together and they shall die together |
I'm even going to replace the jockey wheels in the derailleur because heck why not |
surprisingly apart from a bit of rust the chain is still in spec, though barely |
wd-40 the whole thing, good as new |
https://tenor.com/view/no-gif-12921606 |
Lol. Love that wd40 has a whole product line |
Their chain oil isn't bad |
i was going to do that but as a bandaid i first soaked the chain in some rust removal, that seemed to help but was a bit weak, then i cleaned the chain and applied some lube i found that was not specifically for bikes but should work |
i'll give it another 3 winters |
feels good to have a beater bike it makes you appreciate your nice bike that much more |

the stuff works |
It's a good water repellent. |
It really does |
I never realized how much I missed normal shifting when I swapped bikes |
I got so used to my shit bike that I wanted to stop riding because it wasnt as fun as my other bike |
i have 2 bikes that are over 20 years old at my forest summer house, since there's no point of leaving good bikes there and they only get like 3 months of use anyway |
bought 2 more now for $25 |
and it's a bit hilarious how their drivetrains are actually in better shape than my short commute bike |
yeah the bike used to be a "24 speed" now it's a 3 speed üòÇ stuck on 2nd ring and cassettes 2, 3, 4 |
Sounds like my psyche |
an e-bike combusted on the trail :Pikachu: |
