OT My second electric bike

He is more clueless than Donald J. Drumpf is.

They've been around for a long time, very affordable for at least 10 years, and ridiculously cheap for at least 5. Yeah, I guess that's "new" to somebody like you. You could get one for about $30 on PayPal's Pay After Delivery plan. Would 2 weeks be enough for you to raise $30?

Hey Wieber, did you get your property tax bill for your mobile home yet? What are the odds it will go to lien like all the others? Which works best for you, to skip paying the rent on the lot, or skip paying the tax?

Gunner's been stranded in a mobile home, in TAFT, a shitty little town that got bypassed by civilization when Interstate 5 went in, letting travelers sneak past by while avoiding the dump by 20 miles.

Not old enough: You might need to add a ratchet or automagic reversing gear so that it only rotates in one direction.

I beg to differ. Safety bicycles have the benefit of about 125 years of development and testing. Brushless electric drills, maybe 10 years. My various bicycles tend to last 20-30 years. My brush type drills, maybe 10 years of light use, or 2 years if I do serious drilling or loan them to the neighbors. I recently recycled two Black and Decker cordless (NiCd powered) drills because they were so worn out that they were not worth fixing. My guess is about 10 years old and the batteries were still functional. Extra credit to Skil(?) for selling a right angle grinder with non-replaceable brushes. Anyway, my bicycles are far more reliable and longer lasting than my power tools.

Yeah but he insists he owns a quarter of his block! But as you know, the property records say he owns nothing.... on which he says he's going to put up a shop.

"Im going to put up a 30x50 steel building on the empty lot to the left of the house."

Hey Wieber! How's that building coming along? LOL

Well at least he did not get mentored by Kaczynski. Sounds like he wanted to though.

Huh? At "several tens of miles an hour" on 0.1 HP? Someone should have told me that when I got my AYH Century in 1965. It took me close to 13 hours to pedal 100 miles, and I also raced bicycles in road sprints, so I had decent horsepower.

It sounds more like a fun experiment to satisfy one's curiosity.

Doing math isn't much fun. Building things to experiment with can be a lot of fun.

Whoops, memory fails: that was a double century on flat ground (Princeton, NJ to Cape May Courthouse and back.) I did the century in something like 6 hours. Then we rode back for the double century.

World class riders are +6Watt/Kg full time, untrained guy maybe 1/3 of that

in Tour de France they'll do a 100mile stage in ~4 hours averaging somethin g like 300W, the big sprinters will do 1500W for a few seconds

EU rules for a legal electric bike is: you have to pedal, max 250W and no e lectric power above 25km/h

"most" "clamp-on" meters are inductive and won't read DC currents. Only a few more expensive specialty "hall effect" "clamp on" meters can read DC current. Also some "slip on" meters that are in effect a simple magnetic compas can read DC as well. They are not highly accurate but as a mechanic I used a pair of them for checking charging and cranking current.

I've likely built more than you - including a fully functional electric car AND an electric assist bicycle that WAS legal.

Which means exactly what in this discussion?????

ans those current clamps read DC?

Just sold a perfectly serviceable original 1943 CCM about 4 years ago.

So the CA economy has been bad for decades?

Obviously you were doing poorly in good time and bad. Nobody forced you to keep making the same mistakes for decades. Those mistakes include spending so much time on Usenet writing stupid excuses.

You don't have any choice. Nobody in their right mind would give you any serious amount of credit. At least, not on purpose. The medical system fronted you hundreds of thousands, and got zero in return.

No, the last thing you bought on credit was some $38 purchase with PayPal. And at the end of the two weeks credit, they found your account empty. And then you came here with your crybaby act only to be proven incapable of keeping your end of the bargain, or accepting your mistake.

You don't own that double wide. The lien holders do. Don't believe me? Try to sell it and see what happens.

Bullshit. Some of your liens are for other than property taxes. Over 3 decades of liens and judgments.

Who do you think you're fooling? You never owned that lot, or even the lot your double wide sits on. And there was never any chance you were going to be able to buy it or any new building, as proven by your record of never being able to pay the property tax on your trailer.

It has little to do with age. You CAN'T move. For starters, you probably couldn't fill your gas tank once, let alone multiple times.
