Why Is the U.S. So Good at Killing Pedestrians? - Freakonomics
Just personally disgusting how toughness is now bought these days.
I feel as though American masculinity is so consumer based now. The right hair cut, the right clothes, the right hobbies, the right truck, the right stupid accessories for that stupid truck
For a lack of a better word my mind goes to the name “Weak” when I see these assholes. Weak and dependent on their big oil fetish.
They buy their toughness and masculinity instead of earning it through challenge, personal growth, and respect.
I’m sick of the urban assault vehicle crew. Often the normal thing men do where I live is buy a truck, buy some racks and accessories, but some stupid cooler and strut around like Rambo peacocks.
It’s a terrible image to show kids. I hate it
Rant over
So I realized I posted that other message a few times. I removed the old ones with out comments
Lemmy wasn’t showing them so I kept trying and now I see there were a few of the same posts.
Anyways,
Problem: Speed wobble over 25mph and during specific road surface and load distribution scenarios.
Attempts: Elastic cord tensioner scheme.
Solution: Replaced headset top half with Cane Creek Viscoset ZS 44/28.6
Big thanks to Kash at WarmPlanetBikes for the tip!
New top speed is 43 mph downhill. *not with kids of course…
This took me a while and with the help of team mechanic we solved it. Thanks Ryan
Problem: Set up of new Eagle 2 Transmission drive train. Poor shifting or derailleur binding on #2 cassette ring
Steps:
Solution: Removed RideWrap frame protector from direct mount derailleur location.
Outcome: Happy riding and less sad beers

Pinion is taking things to another level with an e-bike motor with integrated gearbox.
