sk8tedad's cave of BS no build here

i think i saw him in my trash can last night

My father in law passed away today after a full life of 91 years. I’ll take this opportunity to remind you to call your older loved ones, they will not be around forever. A simple call means so much to them. Take care everyone.

This is with the good tubes right? I’ve honestly given up on the v1 version of these tires.

@Sk8tedad

I seem to remember you wanting a Llama or a Khymera. Thought you might want to see this:

@Sk8tedad my hate for pneumatics stems from changing tubes on the side and having a blowout at 37mph dumping me.
This was my solution:

It doesn’t give me trust that they won’t blow, but makes wheel swaps a 2 minute process and keeps the backpack lighter.

Thane is still king though…

I got 5 miles up the road and flat rd, rode home to swap and missed the sunrise
I do like that I can nurse it home though

I’m enjoying making my TB 110s sound like jello through a straw on heavy breaking . I’m glad it only goes 36 mph, because I’d go faster and crash. Thane is much less forgiving. I’m loving it because my roads are all fresh paved , like black glass

Well shit!

Crap on a cracker ! :poop:

Careful about braking hard on the TBs, I believe they’ve been known to delam

Is this just the blue 72A, or other versions you’re aware of? (Not counting the 130s, of course.)

I only recall issues with the blue ones.

I wonder if I should switch to the black ones

im avoiding opening it up, they seem to be on strike for the abuse ive been heaping on them . Im bummed, it just stoped raining here. Someone needs to make the road bikers feel slow going down hill. Bless their spandex clad hearts,they try so hard to catch me. Yesterday one said at the bottom of the himm after i was there for 5 minutes " i almost caught you" i didnt have the heart to tell him iwas taking it easy(im such an arrogant fuck)

are there 130s?! i hope so !

Dang, that sucks. Does the motor still function under its own power? What were you doing before this started happening? Curious if this is a gearbox failure since those seems pretty rare with the 3ds drives.

Likely motor pinions are done, hard braking beforehand.
