>iberian gauge
This?

Seems like China want to turm whatever broad gauge network within its reach into standard gauge. First would be Central Asia.

I'd just get a new hanger. I bet if you shop around a little you can find cheaper shipping than that.

The knock-off one works fine.

Shop around for a new hanger dude.

if you want a good bike with more than one speed its gonna be at least 400

Un-stick it, remove it and compare it? You bought a new BB, you'll have to get the old one off eventually.

>>1086472
yes, naturally, thanks

i mean if there was a way of measuring it without having to unstick it with tools i dont have? like from the edges? or where the frame ends?

Ah, sure. You could measure shell width (the 68mm measure marked on the box), but for the spindle length (the 113mm measure on the box) you'd have to remove the cranks.

Why yellow line is not extension to orange line?

some how it reminds me reminds me of the rail system the area I lived had once upon a time before it got all taken out in less than 2 years

> * Concentrated traction EMU: 1-2 leading/trailing power cars hauling

>>1087934
Not really.

Distributed traction is where the power is delivered to the rails on many/most axles. Cl43 have their traction motors just in the power cars, i.e. concentrated.

>Concentrated traction EMU: Power cars hauling passenger cars in the train set (Acela, TGV, ICE-1)
>Concentrated traction loco-hauled train set: Locos use in general, including push-pull (eg BR Class 43 for Intercity 125 HST)
Don't see that much difference here (aside from electric vs. diesel)

I meant 34 mile total, of course.

>>1087898

You just divide total distance by total time.

Time=distance/speed

So for your example it would be

34
______________

13/14.7 + 21/13.9

Giving you an average of 14.2mph

are you retarded?

I don't know if it's worth it since you didn't say how much he wants for it. But I'd probably just flip it and buy a road bike, if I didn't already have one.

>>1087741
Basically it'd be free but I couldn't re-sell it. We're friends with them blah blah blah

>>1087749
Then I guess you can get away with just putting road drops and brifters on it, then fuck around with the saddle position and maybe stem length. No need to change anything else really, unless your height difference is too dramatic.

>>1084153
Any help with good brands or certain terms for the type of bike that i'm looking for would be great!

look for commuter bikes!

>>1084153
go to a proper bike store and tell them what you're looking for, the kind of riding you'll be doing - they'll point you in the right direction and let you test ride some bikes.
DON"T go to your local discount or big box store and just buy whatever they have on sale.
As above, commuter or hybrid bike is likely what you're after; either of these can be fitted with racks, will have a decent range of gears, be comfortable etc...

Neat.

What patches are you using?

dude you're 5'7 so you are obviously not XL get a fucking medium 27 or if you are fat a 29. jesus fuck

Why do you have to be such a dick

nobody gives more of a crap about how tall you are than you. Pedal often, be personable, find happiness, you will be fine. Get a bike that fits though, that will help with the happiness part.

But with the crotch rocket the coffin is sold separately.

>>1076991

Sure, I'll take the bait.

You're looking at stuff with pretty low production volumes a lot of the time, so it's not that surprising that prices would be high in some cases. I do agree that a lot of the really high end stuff is a ripoff for what little benefit most people would get.

And as someone who has a couple motorcycles, it's not like a lot of those aren't a total ripoff either.

Bicycle
>top of the line race bike
>marginal gains
>extremely lightweight
>low volumes

Motorcycle
>low end model
>old cheap tech
>heavy
>high volumes

Why does this stale bait keep coming up. You're comparing apples to oranges. The $700 road bike would be much more valid comparison.

looks like a fine ad to me
speaking of tires, I'd like to order a different tire for my Torker. It's 26", so there are a lot of tires available. I think something with colored treads would be neat
