    I like the idea of a motorized bike because I can take a road trip with it, taking a road trip with a e-bike and expecting the battery to always have sun could be problematic but finding low amounts of gas should be pretty easy. Also the initial daily cost of a gas bike is quickly redeemed, an e bike with a solar panel could take awhile to break even on.

    Olá bom dia vi seu vídeo incrível a explicação sobre o CVT versus embreagem centrífuga,mas me esclarece uma dúvida o CVT gera mais Tork e econômia de combustível do que a centrífuga? 14:43

    When centering the caliper on the front brake when you have it on you can just press and hold the lever and it will center itself and while holding the lever just tighten the bolts. On the rear one tho its better to ask someone for help so that he can hold the lever while you tighten the caliper. Just a little tip from my own experience.

  • @BenCarano
    @BenCarano7 күн бұрын

    Thanks for that advice! I suppose the only thing that I would be worried about with that is if the caliper wasn't bled yet and the pistons themselves were slightly offset
