    My Ebike got stolen today.

    I've already confronted the guy downstairs. Although he says he doesn't know, I don't believe him. I can possibly use force, but then I would stoop to his level right? Kidnapping him and waterboarding has crossed my mind a few times. Paying someone money for giving me back my own bike goes...

    My Ebike got stolen today.

    You just made me remember a seemingly useless even that happened that night. On the way to work, right as I get off to park/lock my bike at my usual spot, I ran over dog poop on my front wheel! :evil: Maybe that was a sign that I was going to get shitted on when I got home that night. lol...

    My Ebike got stolen today.

    Sounds like a good idea on paper but I really do mean it when I say that this neighborhood is shaddy. If I get caught "snitching" I would be a marked man. I can imagine the price on my head if I busted "Crackhead Joe's" supplier. If vengeance is the path I take, I would plan ahead. :twisted: Not...

    My Ebike got stolen today.

    @ nomad and pwbset, Are your x4 motors the new gen with the disc brake side? I have some bosch fatpacks here that I was going to build for a 72V setup. I definately want to do things insanely perfect this time. I'm thinking about doing a x406 with disk, and my fatpacks mounted on panniers on my...

    Bosch 36V fatpacks opened up

    I purchased 4 fatpacks. All are 35 volts but one was 7.4 volts. Defective? Bad?

    My Ebike got stolen today.

    Thanks broloch and everyone else for supporting me. I've seriously considered getting a gun to protect my home. As for my personal carry, there are lots of loopholes here if I wish to obtain a concealed carry permit. I wish it wasn't like this but in my world, I can't trust people to be "honest"...

    My Ebike got stolen today.

    @ less, I posted a link to some pics on the registry. Here are some pics directly linked. @ needswheels, I don't really care if he puts me on a "blacklist" for credit report. I am not going to buy anything big and I don't need a big loan any time soon. Also, I did not leave it...

    My Ebike got stolen today.

    That's the thing, she could've given a copy of the keys to someone. If so then I'll definitely let the landlord know. We are good tenants. We pay rent on time and we are quiet. This frocking lady is dealing with some type of domestic violence, which I totally sympathize with, but then when it...

    My Ebike got stolen today.

    No I am not a student. I live in shaddy area. I guess you can call it the ghetto. I have a wicked long 7 foot braided wire that I combine with a decent Master Lock. So far it has served me well. The thing about it was that I chose to take the pedal bike to work since my ebike had a bit of...

    My Ebike got stolen today.

    my apartment is kinda weird. It's not quite like a college dorm. But yes, I do have to unlock twice to get into my apartment. My sister bf has a Dahon Jack and it is locked up downstairs. His was not stolen. It's funny but I think this was something of a good thing. Now I know other creeps have...

    debate on universal access to health care

    Considering that the IRS and the Federal Income Tax is illegal(totally different subject), I wouldn't support a bill that would give them more power and control. Supporting a tax break for healthy people, while nice, would still take power away from the people. This would also create a conflict...

    Motor's power density

    I think this thread is missing something important. Torque. You can't deny that electric motors generally exceed gasoline engines in that category. HP gets you max speed. Torque gets you there faster.

    Any clubbing scientists out there?

    ooo man, just the thread I need! Hey Dee Jay, do you like "trance" music? I use to go to tranceaddict.com to download their tracks years ago. Currently I've gotten out of the groove and need some "new" trance to chill on. I like the progressive and chillout style. Sometimes I like the "pop-ish"...

    Motor's power density

    The Mazda wankel rotary 787B is the strongest naturally aspirated engine that I know. It is a 3.5 liter non-turbo engine that produced 700 hp at 9,000 RPM but Mazda claims it had a maximum of 930 hp at 10,500 RPM. If you look at the engine and compare it to the respected Honda VTEC engines. The...

    I second that. I am running Ubuntu linux right now. Been doing so for about a year. What viruses? What spyware? I realize now how much time and energy I spent trying to get rid of them. Now why I go to a funky site that asks me to download something. I smile and say, "nice try." Ohh and you know...

    Motor's power density

    swbluto, when you say the best of the best, does that include full size car engines? Does that also include turbo-charged/supercharged engines?

    debate on universal access to health care

    Julesa, I understand the single-payer system that is being proposed and I support it. While it will not fix all of our problems, it will surely do good to relieve it. Bob, I also understand your views on patching the system and then refining it. How long do you expect that to take though? 10 15...

    debate on universal access to health care

    bob, I was responding to cackalacka because he credited the WHO, FDA, etc on our increased life expectancy. Yes, it have nothing to do with American health care system. Nothing. Neither does his statement of increased life expectancy due to these governing bodies. I was merely countering his...

    My Gas prediction this summer - $3.40

    I expect $4.00 a gallon. I hope it goes higher. When gas was at $5 a gallon, we saw tons of people on bikes. Also, the feelings changed when you saw a 100 lb woman driving a hummer alone. They get cut off, not let in traffic, etc.

    debate on universal access to health care

    I wouldn't trust the WHO, FDA or any of those bodies of control. The FDA is the same organization that is allowing aspartame in your foods. The WHO is involved in pushing Codex Alimentarius. Google it. Thailand is already banning Ginger and Tumeric with pressure from the WHO. Also, I credit...

    Rear rack leaning far

    wow that journey rack is cheap (as in price). If it does hold the 150 lb claim, then I can see it as a great value. At this point, I am not sure whether I want to continue my current route. Yes I have thought about carrying a bunch of heavy dumbells on the other side lol. Even with the strengths...

    ebay batteries?

    for what it's worth, my Cammy pack is holding up nicely. As I am gaining more knowledge, I am looking forward to building my own pack. 36V 15 or 20 AH would be just fine.

    debate on universal access to health care

    former head of the fed Alan Greenspan is a representative of the fed. The people we do not see pull the strings and force him to manipulate interest rates. Current head of the federal reserve Ben Bernanke is now getting most of the heat ans he meets up with congress on multiple occasions...
