This is a valid criticism that we talk about...working through supply, using supply, and becoming familiar with it is actually the ideal we should all strive for. 🙂 Idk about any bike, electric or not, that can withstand hard use several times/day for decades. (o_O) But product design is getting better all the time!
Oh I was making a joke, like you posted an 'or' comment & I replied Yes like it will do both. 😂 Good bike, blows your balls off.
I've been looking at Super73 for years as a CLASSIC styling, really handsome ebike. YouTube search for things like Survival ebike, ebike for preppers. Because you'll tap into a whole community of people that want good & tough ebikes, not flimsy crap, ebikes that should be good relatively long-term. I trust Canadian Prepper; this video is a little older but information & considerations tend to be relevant years later.
I saw another prepper cheaping it with $700-800 ebikes, if I find it I'll post name & link...
Anyway jokes aside I hope that helps. Idk your situation but I'd almost be tempted to wait just a few more years; pandemic/oil prices have pushed so many ebikes into the wild & that has brought about soooooo much real-world testing & consumer feedback. I'm thinking the ebikes just a few years from now will be so much better, and possibly for cheaper or the same price.
It didn't have to be an evil fuck. Could have just been an ignorant fuck. "Do not attribute to malice what can easily be explained by ignorance".
Disregarding what we know now: it would be great to have an exfoliating bead that didn't break down or decay. I used it, sometimes, and it worked well for its intended purpose. We just didn't think anything about it, and they probably didn't, either.
Well it all goes bad anyway, it's just good to clean up. I do not use antiperspirants, I don't like the idea of shoving stuff into my pores to block bodily functions. Those are kind of addictive, like if you're on them & don't use them, sometimes I feel like the problem is even worse. Like your body is purging because you stopped it up with aluminum.
I used antiperspirants until late HS, early college; it stained, discolored my shirts. I stopped using antiperspirant, and the staining stopped, too.
That's interesting. I avoid ads...so I'm not seeing what you're seeing. I think my balls get a bit of a smell after a day, but like a nice, mild balls smell. My pits, man, my fucking pits...they go rancid in about a day's time, definitely in 2-3. Simply stating as a matter of fact, gotta deal with my pits before my balls.
I distinctly remember when that went down. It was certainly jarring at the time, but after that nobody really fucked militarily with the US for the duration of Trump's presidency. That I can recall. Russia didn't move an inch, China wasn't moving on Taiwan, the Middle East was relatively calm. Etc. One asshole had to die to get everyone else in line, that's a great trade.
Now we've got massive conflicts on all those fronts because they perceive the US, POTUS as weak. Inept. And when the US falls from being the global hegemon, who will take its place? China? Russia? None of the alternatives look particularly good.
I will say, this proxy war with Russia just destroying all their resources for cheap has overall been a success. But it makes me sad that men's lives are essentially being tossed into a meat grinder to make that happen. Lots of men dying on both sides of that conflict, lots of blood & treasure just thrown away. 😔 I hope that war in particular ends soon.
I don't believe the wolf was actually run over, the article says that he ran the wolf down. Meaning he chased it to exhaustion where it couldn't run anymore, or fight/resist.
Doesn't make it any better but it is a difference.
This is actually super great timing. I'm guessing by safer, they mean, won't blow your nuts off. 🤭 Might be a good community for us, too.
