I would argue that public transport is up there in the top 5 things government SHOULD be funding, as part of critical infrastructure.

You're from UK that somehow found the funds to enforce "pls don't carry a knife"

What I'm saying is that there's always means to fund reasonable effort if there's interest for it in the government. Hell, UK found the funds to completely fuck the exports and imports to/from EU

Oh god I had eyeliner for Halloween costume this year and wtf people why do you do this to yourself.

It's pain in the ass to "install", poking blind into your eyes with a pen, and then the removal is just impossible without like bleaching your eyes

It doesn't require any surveillance state shit? It's literally just a "throw tax money on it" -problem. If public transport is free or at least considerably cheaper than private car, more people will use it, meaning there's more space in cities for pedestrians and cyclists, less pollution, what else. Then sell your carbon offsets to Germany to get back your investment on public transport lmao

Now how can we make public transport more affordable?

Rear suspension troubles (lemmy.dbzer0.com)
submitted 3 months ago by [email protected] to c/mtb
 

Hey all, do we have any suspension nerds here?

I have some annoying troubles with the rear suspension on my 2017 Focus Vice trail bike. The shock is Rockshox deluxe select R with max tokens inside and 250psi air pressure (~20% sag)

Long story short, I keep bottoming out the rear suspension regularly on jumps and drops way easier than I'm comfortable with, but with the amount of pressure in the shock the ride starts feeling pretty harsh as well

So what I've thought as options, but might need some more validation:

  • bigger bike and/or bike with more progressive suspension curve

Eh, don't really want to replace bike I otherwise love

  • different shock?

Not sure what I would look there tbh, also gets pricy but not as bad as a whole new bike

  • messing with the shock tune

The shock doesn't have externally adjustable high/low speed compression, but perhaps could adjust the shim stack? This is completely alien stuff for me so some ideas/advice would be appreciated

  • there's a megneg air can upgrade kit available for the shock

This increases the negative volume giving more mid-strike support, plushier initial feeling and more bottom out force using less tokens as claimed by rockshox. This upgrade kit is not terribly expensive, but is it worth if I'd better be going with a new shock anyways?

Hello fellow lemmings,

I'm glad to have discovered this magnificent sub community, and it made me think of a recent hike with my little spawn. During the rather long for her, 2 hourish and 4000 step hike, she kept collecting sticks from the ground and regularly dropping the least favorite ones to make more space in her little hands.

I'm not sure where I'm going with this story, but just wanted to say hello and I'm glad this community exists. I hope you'll stick around (badum-tss)
