I want to cry every time I see this station. Would love to see it one day in person, or better yet, the US create meaningful things like this.

feels like the MOUNTAIN TAMER QUAD PLUSTM would go perfect on this

So if 22.5° took 37 seconds, we can extrapolate that it would take about 110 seconds to turn 180°...

soo sounds like we need about 2 minutes to fix all our issues if someone actually captained the ship and directed it.

not OP but I have a similar setup with an out front mount and the hori 1300, it's an "underhung" style light with a garmin quarter turn to "go pro" mount.

The 35mm 4:3ish open matte is super cool. Love how grainy and raw it is. 

 but OP would not like it since it has conspiratorial black bars on the sides now!!

The apache scalp sounds like a sweet bike but damn lmao that earns a genuine yikes

Idk but it's why 1x is hard for me to consider. I currently have 11-42 cassette and 28-44 chainrings. Around me I hit a few 12% climbs and do 500ft of elevation in 3mi on one section. I regularly use my lowest gear which seemed excessive before I upgraded by im happy to have it. But if I only had the 28t up front I'd easily spin out on flats and descents. 

I'd probably be looking at sram xd style to get the 10t cog, but that still is more limiting than my current setup.

Like half the routes I plan lol, I like to challenge myself on singletrack, but the issue is usually time and energy too, like going 6mph definitely makes my 55 mile ride way more difficult lol

How did taking a bike in an uber go? I've never tried it cuz I'm scared they'll be mad about it.

I miss machining bicycle parts at the machine shop, don't have a lathe anymore but used to customize stuff for my french 70's bicycle that always needs random sized shit haha

Hardcorex

Yoo vibes are 100 on this lmao, fuck yeah,

Hardcorex

oooh very nice and those pedals are perfect, I wasn't able to find pink but not hot pink ones when I looked before.

Hardcorex

I just upgraded to 11-42 and 28-44 chainrings, it's sooo nice I somewhat regularly go up 12% grades and also lots of mtb trails that are probably steeper.

Hardcorex

Mounting looks real clean, how do you mean when you say coroplast is underneath?

Sucks to hear, these panels are super affordable, but maybe too good to be true...

Remember, everyone who disagrees with you is a Russian bot tankie.

The majority of vans have sloped front ends, or seats on top of the engine. Way better visibility at least, even if they still would push people underneath instead of over the vehicle.

Pumped hydro, make a dam, flood a city, and use that as a battery!

(Candlewood lake in Connecticut is an example of this lol)

this made me gag, sorry, it's probably pretty good but idk
