What makes bikes better than scooters?
The wheel size. Scooter hits a 4 inch pothole at 20mph, you crash and die. Still a rough impact with full size wheels, but if you know how to handle the bike you'll make it.
>>2020455Everything.
>>2020456this, and speed
>>2020455Better control. Better wheels.
>>2020456>blocks your path

Call me when your scooter can go uphill on your own effort.
>>2020800How fucking fat to you need to be to permanently bend the scooter's standing on board thingy?
>>2020830it's not even mine and I never rode itI went on my way and 2 minutes later a super based middle aged woman caught up on that thingshe looked like maybe 50 kg or idk
>>2020455>What makes bikes better than scooters?Nothing. Bikes are trash and have terrible ergonomics. Scooters give you a great butt and don't make you hip flexors tight.. Plus you can tour on one
>>2021184>hip flexorsafter a bit more than a decade on the bike almost daily this issue started to cause me permanent back pain

>>2020455I swear i had a scooter with 16 inch wheels and a skateboard like deck and BMX handlebars. Cant find it anywhere online.Now all the kids ride mini wheeled scooters. I cant remember who made it- probably kent, murray, or roadmaster. Bought at Western Auto in the 1980s.I spent one great summer just trucking it up giant hills and sending it. Ahh to be 10 again.If I was a kid Id surely have an ebike. They seem cooler than bird style scooters but Im old. I use my legs to ride in the road.

>>2020800Can someone explain the headset? Looks like a threaded headset and an ahead stem clamped onto it (that's fine with me) but then there's a cap with a QR skewer? So you adjust your threaded headset... then add the stem, just jam it on with the QR since the headsets preload is already set independently... then do up the clamping bolts... at which point the QR completely lost it's merit and you could just aswell remove the cap and QR? Am I stoopid? Whats going on here?

>>2022537It filtered me too. These situations call for physical inspection tbqh.
>>2022537it's to raise the fender if you end up scooting offroad through mud
>>2020455Lower centre of gravity, bigger wheels, more stable. My go to example is when I ride a rented scooter on shared paths slowing for pedestrians is harder than were I on a bike.
>>2022503That was it. Torker 2 because it had spokes.
>>2022766thanks anon.must be a scoot scoot thing
>>2021184>>2021291Have you people never heard of stretching?
>>2020455You get to keep your dignity.
>>2020455scooters are quite a strain on the supporting leg
