Sometimes you need to step away from the keyboard and actually test things out. I’m thinking that it has more to do with pole count on the motor and braking force. Unfortunately my leave got cancelled so no brouhaha for me. Guess I’ll shift to the larger refit I planned for Mo. might test out some more combos, will try to remember to post results and links to AC motor articles that explain motor operation
Wishing everyone safe travels, perfectly working boats and a great time at the Brew this W/E. Looking forward to some videos hopefully! I am so jealous of those who get to attend. Craig
Ooohhhhh Mmmmmm yeah We kinda of like “forgot” to tell you about the cancellation.... I am going to have to ask you to stay for the weekend and help Wade clean the place up, and unhhh we are short handed right now so go ahead and uhhh help Wade with his catheter. Thaaaaanks.
I guess I am interested in why the cancellation I would imagine it has to do with hotels and restaurants. I am wondering about future regionals Maryland, Georgia? Saranac is still a go.
Several of us had work pull the plug on time off/ travel We’ll have to see how things go for future battles. MD is on for now
Rotational inertia's a BEAST when you're rolling with 5 inch tires on a fat bike. each wheel weighs almost two pounds. It's like pedaling uphill. all the time. versus my road bike with 35 mm tires.. going from commuting with my fatty to work to using the roadie is like that feeling when you take off your kit after a month-long operation in the mountains and walk to the chow hall with a spring in your step. Back in the day, there were these cobbled together mountain bikes with a 29er tire on the front and a 26 on the back. the 29er front wheel can clear obstacles easier, and the 26 back tire could provide better acceleration due to a combination of lower rotational inertia and reduced circumference. 69ers are still cool bikes, but they're rare now.
