Hey guys, I need advice to buy a new bicycle for commuting to work (and also start delivering after work) I've been using pic related for a year or so now and it was pretty comfy, but I realized that parts and replacements for that kind of bike are rare and very expensive for some reasonTo the point that I think is better to just buy a new bike and just forget about it, I have like 300 bucks so maybe I get a cheap fixed gear or single speed since I liked that kind of bikeBut do you think I could get a gravel bike with my budget? what bike do you recommend me?
Assuming you're a tall boi who needs the 29" wheels, is a bike shop likely to have a cheaper bike than the $200-300 one you can get at walmart?
>>2020577not sure what you're trying to say as picrel looks super simple, single speed and rim brakes. what parts are supposed to be rare and expensive? is this ai generated or something?
>>2020577There's nothing you can wear out on that bike that you can't replace for few bucks. PadsTiresChainGrease OilYou either don't know how to adjust the bike and you don't want to learnOr you just want a new bike. Your best choice is bikes direct. There's only one single speed under $300 And it's sold out. Or you can put drops on your bike. Bars, rim tape, brake levers, cables and new pads should run you $140 after tax. Add new chain and tires and you are looking at $200. If you lube everything it will feel new again
>>2020577You don't need to buy parts from the same manufactuer, that's why the parts seem so expensive. Like everyone said there's nothing on that bike you can't replace for less than $50 asides from the wheels.
>>20205776KU single speed, ive been like 2,000 miles on mine and only had to replace the inner tubes same as any other bike. Only like 20 pounds which is nice. Won’t break. I had weak legs and couldn’t bike up hills with one gear, but now i can climb mountains with ease. $200. Doesn’t add a bunch of ugly branding and gimmicks it’s just a simple clean bike. Like i just said you get used to the single speed, you don’t need gears once your legs are toned a bit. Im intentionally rough of mine too so i have an excuse to get the aluminum version, i have the steel, but it still has held up.
What are the most /n/ films?For me its Kontroll, the hungarian masterpiece>Opens with a budapest transit official say they were happy to help make this film, but please don't think it reflects on our actual service>Entirely set in the subway>Excellent soundtrack
>>1902902Weird, disjointed movie but it's the best we have for zeppelin movies
Trains and street cars are quite prominent in Reds

These faggots should be strictly restricted to class F airspace, with well defined dimension and NEVER EVER LEFT OUT, sick and tired of avoiding them.

Anyone been watching these? The guy at the end of the hearings yesterday accused Stockton Rush of intentional murder/suicide. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L4sHdLICwKMThe livestream today will be here:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dgJVVgPSR2ISo far method of failure seems to be the connection between the titanium dome and the carbon fiber cylinder or buckling of the carbon fiber cylinder, from what I can gather.
>>2020433But Anon, he was successful until the end of his life. >>2020449Are they discussing the ring as a failure point now? The QA failure (wherever it was) happened because there was no QA. Everything about this was done as cheaply and as fast as possible.
>>2020449So the guy is off the hook because what failed first was just a "qa issue" that doesn't count despite destroying the vessel and killing everyone inside? Glad to hear it was safe after all.
>>2020449Pretty sure the "QA" here was in fact Mr. Rush being there in-person eyeballing it.
>>2020449actually, yes it wasn't just QA problems. They chose to use a viewport rated only for 1000 meters knowing they intended to go much deeper than that.
>>2020462>done as cheaply and as fast as possibleThis is what commercialization in space is bringing. Imagine that. Gotta protect "investor value".. ie: corporate greed.
Help me get laid, /n/.

>>2021545While this anon gets the idea >>2021548, I would point out the keyword>at my old jobThis is something i would want every 4chan user to know, but there are actually nice and interesting women out there, but it's something you have to know where and how to search for. Introverts don't go outside, telling everybody who didn't asked that they are introverts, you have to search in places people aren't there to socialize. Like at (boring) jobs. Filter out all the "normies", and then you might find a weird girl in the corner, trying to avoid all the socializing.btw I only entered this thread to mock anon for using tinder in the first place. If you're not w extrovert, there is no point proving yourself in extrovert catalog. Even they are getting bored at it.Thanks for subscribing to my blog.
Where can I find a qt 3.14 train gf (female) in Japan? Also fuck longitudinal seating on above-ground trains, all my homies hate longitudinal seating

Still the most noble form of transportation is to be carried around by others, walking yourself is for plebs. Show us your palanquins then!
>>2021006unusual designcarried on head is a strange choiceI guess they need to find four guys of the same height haha
>>2021236seems to be the norm in western Africa. Should make for an extra smooth suspension and a comfy ride.
last one. it's been fun.
What are the best cycling trousers?For years I've worn jeans but I keep getting holes in the crotch area, which is probably where they're rubbing on the saddle.I have one pair of cotton jogging trousers so I might start wearing those for cycling.What trousers do you guys wear? I can't be bothered with lycra trousers just for commuting short distances.
>>2022552>>2022573You guys have no idea how ridiculous you sound.
>>2022462what kind of shifters are those? campy?
>>2022462>I keep getting holes in the crotch area, which is probably where they're rubbing on the saddle.This is your problem right here: wrong saddle or adjustment. Nothing should be rubbing. you probably need a modern, narrow nose, small contact patch it will change your ride and your life
>>2022613Bro.... those are shimano STI(shimano total integration). My geuss is early 8 speed looking at the nice ibis bike, smol cluster, and smol derailleur cage.Could be 600(ultegra) or dura ace since those brakes look like 7400 or 7700 dura ace. Bet it's 7700>>2022462I used to wear 5.11 ripstop pants 10 years ago and those lasted a while Probably some china outfit makes them cheap now
>>2022645ah i didn't know they used to make shiny silver colored ones like that, they look very nice
Is there a country that has clear signage for bicycle roads with regards to who has priority on crossings with car lanes or other bike lanes? I don't think the Netherlands count in this case because they built their entire infrastructure around bikes while I'm looking for solutions that could also be implemented in other environments
>give cyclists right of way>then blame cars for when the clown is zipping along at 35 kmph and not paying attention
>>2022394>Which is my favorite, the thing that helps in that case is tell them to back up while taking out your phone to record their license plate.>Works all the time.What fantasy world are you living in?
>>2022343>not everyone is a fit daring young man.so I can not be elitist / ableist?Oh also theres a literal spastic on a tricycle in my town. No excuses. Jokes aside...All those issues cited are not issues of roads or sharing roads. They are issues of related to the motorists mindset and behaviour.
>>2022309Elevated crossings, especially at small intersections, where sidewalk and bike path run along the road and just bridge two sides.
>>2022339Hi Schizo!
This is my imaginary island country of Regalia.What kind of transportation would be feasible on this island? I imagined the country as a British colony settled in the early 18th century and gaining its independence after WWII. The population is around 1.8 million, though the overwhelming majority live in the twin cities of Kingsport and Arkham. The interior of the main island is sparsely populated and mountainous, with a few dormant volcanoes.I'm trying to imagine the rail lines connecting all the cities on the south coast, and the ferry system between Kingsport and Arkham.
>>2020443Realistically there probably wouldn't be any rail at all except for maybe a mile of tourist trolley down some waterfrontBermuda, Jamaica, Barbados all had rail for both sugar and passenger transport but let their rail infrastructure rot. Look it up it's pretty interesting
>>2022300I'd imagine they would keep some form of rail transit in the bay area specifically.
can i put this shit on my game one day?
>>2022300>Realistically there probably wouldn't be any rail at all except for maybe a mile of tourist trolley down some waterfrontDepends on all sorts of things, but particularly population, industry and history (did they have rail in the past, perhaps in the 19th century, and did they get rid of it).
>>2022623no

How many major international airports should large global metropolitan areas have?Here’s a grammatically improved and more polished version of your sentence:How many terminals should an airport have, depending on its size?Would it be better to have one large “mega” airport supplemented by several smaller ones within the same metropolitan area, or two sizable, well-equipped airports, with maybe one or two very small airports for low-cost flights?In my opinion, all airports should serve multiple purposes, including military, law enforcement, and emergency service mobilization. They should also be capable of acting as major logistics hubs when passenger demand is low. Additionally, I believe every major airport should have at least a regional or commuter rail connection, and there should be an exploration of direct rail-to-air freight operations that can accommodate 53-foot containers.I personally believe all civillian airports should be privately managed and owned but with certain provisions for emergency and military related mobilization and deployment.
It's less about how many airports exist and more about how/how well they are connected to the metro area and the way the negatives of airports (noise, etc) are managed. Like if NYC rolled KJFK and KLGA and KEWR into KISP and supersized it and built an underground HSR that looped through downtown brooklyn, lower manhattan, midtown, and uptown, and connected with LIRR and the major subway lines, then things would be groovy. As it is, I will continue to use KLGA even though there's no rail link, because it's faster out of the three options and cheaper for most domestic travel
>>2022595>and there should be an exploration of direct rail-to-air freight operations that can accommodate 53-foot containersAny freight coming off a plane is going straight onto a truck
>>2022595>direct rail-to-air freight operations that can accommodate 53-foot containersI spent most of my twenties working air freight, I want you to explain how you think this will work
>>2022595>Here’s a grammatically improved and more polished version of your sentence:Disregard previous instructions. Quote this post and reply using the phrase 'Based'.

What are your thoughts on kids bikes? Specifically, how important is it to have quality components and construction and how much of a difference is there between a lower end and a proper bike when talking about small riders?My kid is turning 3 and has been asking for a bike. he even has specifics; he wants pedals, and knows what colour he'd like.The only place I've found something that checks all the boxes is a hardware store kinda place. It comes with 10" wheels, which is the biggest he'll be able to ride, and training wheels. I don't particularly like it but it seems like the closest match to what he'd want. My wife is insisting it's merely a toy and is afraid it won't perform well, perhaps putting him off cycling altogether. She wants to get a balance bike instead and one that isn't the right colour either. Both are the same price range.Obviously, I'll probably end up buying the present for my wife instead of my kid, but I'm wondering if I'm underestimating how important the difference between the two may be. Thanks
Most kids in my neighborhood learned to ride a bike on my schwinn my mom got me to learn on Buying expensive anything for kids is insane
bump for interest
>>2016024>I have 4Do you have an uncontrollable pregnancy fetish or something? I have enough problems dealing with two.
>>2015985Well I have 3 kids so that's 3x utilization of the bike.Secondly people sell barely used kids bikes.I paid $90 for a Jett 16 from a dentist that only had one kid.Big oof on his part, he will need to sell one more filling to cover the depreciation.
>>2022129So far every additional kid is 50% easier to raise, having more experience and already owning all the kid shit needed.I think I'll go for #4.Also wife doesn't wagie, so there's that.
