The Biking Dead Hack: A Guide to the Best Routes, Strategies, and Secrets in the Post-Apocalyptic Wo



i want to see him go up a hill in my city lol he will be on his butt in a few minutes when he tryes to ride down here id say try jousting but i guess that would be too dangerous for this thing. Still good job not really a hack just a mod but its still good.

An eyewitness to the brutal killing, identified only as Brandon, told NBC 5 he was cycling along the White Rock Creek Trail at Harry Moss Park when he saw a man hacking another man with a machete where the trail passes underneath the Walnut Hill Lane overpass.


"What is dead may never die." That's easily one of the best lines (and episode title) from HBO's Game of Thrones series. While the saying may ring true for the Ironborn, it's not quite as catchy when it comes to batteries.


A lot of the time, these tricks will vary...but even if U get a glimpse of power doesn't mean its going hold a charge or work prop. like it kinda/sorta shows in 1 of the video's... Age of the BATT. is the true measure of whether or not U can get it 2 work again...Iv'e had success with putting a Bat. in the freezer 4 3 to 4 hours, then trying those methods above. Extreme cold is usually not good for a Bat., but in the case of non-charge holding or a dead cell bat., The cold shrinks all the molecules that make up the battery, including the terminals, squeezes whatever is left out of it....THEN try the USB trick...has worked foe me in the past , especially LAPTOP BATTS....I know it sounds a lil' nutz, but it works....


So much misinformation can be dangerous. First of all, lithium ion batteries shout NEVER EVER be discharged completely! This damages the battery and can cause them to explode in a blaze of fire. NEVER UNDERCHARGE A LITHIUM BATTERY! THIS IS THE MOST IDIOTIC THING I HAVE EVER SEEN! That is why circuit boards automatically shut down when the voltage gets low. "Kickstarting" a damaged cell is not advisable at all. Also, the whole thing about them losing charge because they have "memory" so you need to discharge them and recharge is obsolete with new batteries. That applied to nickel cadmium batteries which is one reason why we switched to lithium in the first place. Doing any of this is extremely dangerous and can lead to serious injury and property damage. If your lithium battery is dead, buy a new one. Don't risk your safety because lithium is a highly volatile substance which shouldn't be handled so recklessly.


I just tried using USB wire to activate the dead samsung lithium battery. well it's worked. since last 3 months my mobile was in switch off mode due to nonresponse battery. finally, my mobile works normally. Thanks to all who behind this website.


Being an early adopter in cycling means you get to be first to ride exciting new tech. There is a downside though in that sometimes new concepts just don\u2019t catch on, and they get abandoned by the wayside.\nRoad bike tech has undergone seismic changes in recent years, with disc brakes, electronic shifting and other new tech disrupting the status quo and taking over at the top end.\nThese advances have brought great benefits to riders, but spawned numerous orphaned, obsolete or simply downright inelegant products. Here are our top five road tech dead ends.\n1. Hydraulic rim brakes\n\n Hydraulic rim brakes have existed for decades but never took off for road bikes. James Huang \/ Immediate Media\nHydraulic rim brakes for road bikes are a good idea that arguably came at the wrong moment.\nA little background first: hydraulic rim brakes as a concept have been around for decades, and plenty of mountain bikers had Maguras in the nineties before disc brakes took over.\nThey were well regarded and, remarkably, you can still buy versions of them today \u2013 they\u2019re still moderately popular on trekking\/touring bikes on the continent.\nThere was even a version for drop bars at one stage (Cyclocross Magazine has a nice write-up here), but it was a brake lever only, not an integrated shift\/brake lever. Oh, and Magura made them for time trial and triathlon bikes too.\nWhen SRAM launched its new Red and Force road groupsets in 2013 they came in standard rim brake, hydraulic rim brake and hydraulic disc brake variants.\n\n SRAM dared to dream with its hydraulic rim brakes, but they never caught on. Oli Woodman \/ Immediate Media\nThe hydraulic rim brakes were praised for their feel and modulation \u2013 the two key claimed advantages over a standard cable rim brake \u2013 but it seems like hardly anyone actually bought them. The same could be said of Rotor\u2019s hydraulic rim brakes, which formed part of the ultra-niche Uno hydraulic-shifting groupset.\nIf ever hydraulic rim brakes for the road could have had a moment, this was it, but they never caught on and, with the dominance of discs, they never will.\nThe problem with hydraulic rim brakes is not that they\u2019re bad, it\u2019s just that conventional hydraulic disc brakes offer much the same advantages and none of the downsides.\nA hydraulic rim brake has the more onerous maintenance requirements of any hydraulic braking system, but braking is still liable to suffer in wet or muddy conditions.\nDiscs, on the other hand, perform well in all conditions and, if you just want the simplicity and low weight of rim brakes, good old cables still work just fine.\n2. Hydraulic converters\n\n Hope V-Twin hydraulic disc brakes Joseph Branston \/ Immediate Media\nIn a very similar vein, hydraulic converters for road brakes were a stepping-stone technology that has all but died out, mourned by few.\nThe principle made sense in a world before dedicated hydraulic road levers were widely available.\nIf you wanted discs on your road or cyclocross bike \u2013 gravel wasn\u2019t even a term then \u2013 your options were cable-operated discs or a converter that let you operate hydraulic brakes via your standard road levers.\nThere were a handful of these converters on the market including the Hope V-Twin, a device that nestled underneath your bike\u2019s stem.\nGiant persisted with its similar Conduct system until very recently, as a way to give its most affordable road bikes hydraulics. Again, it worked fine, but it never felt like an elegant solution.\nTRP offered (and still offers) the HY\/RD, a hydraulic caliper that\u2019s cable-actuated, and there was at least one competitor on the market from Juin Tech. If you\u2019re dead-set on running cable levers but want the benefits of hydraulic braking, this is surely the neatest way to go about it.\n\n TRP HY\/RDs offer the self-adjustment of hydraulics, but work with standard brake levers without adding too much chunky hardware. Matthew Loveridge \/ Immediate Media\n3. Shoe-based power meters\n\n Sadly, the \u201cwearable\u201d power\u00a0meter never came to fruition. Brim Brothers\nImagine if your power meter were built into your shoes, meaning you could record power data on every bike you jumped on.\nThat was the promise of the Brim Brothers DPMX, which was pitched as \u201cthe world\u2019s first wearable power meter\u201d.\nAfter years of teasers, Brim Brothers launched on Kickstarter in February 2016, promising riders a product as early as July the same year. After raising over \u20ac180,000, the brand collapsed, taking backers\u2019 money with it \u2013 surely the ultimate tech dead end?\nOf course, in this case, the underlying concept still appeals. A power meter is a significant investment and one that isn\u2019t permanently installed on a bike makes a lot of sense; it\u2019s the reason recent products like Garmin\u2019s Rally RS200 and Favero\u2019s Assioma pedals have made such an impact.\n\n Power meter pedals like the Garmin Rally are hot property right now. Simon Bromley \/ Immediate Media\nIt\u2019s been demonstrated time and time again that making a reliable and consistently accurate power meter is actually very difficult.\nCould the shoe-based option still have merit? Perhaps.\n4. Quick-release disc frames and post-mount brakes\n\n The first generation of drop-bar disc bikes used post-mount brake calipers and standard quick-release skewers. Josh Patterson \/ Immediate Media\nBrakes have rather dominated this list because the knock-on effects of the evolving tech have been so profound.\nIt\u2019s hard to pick out exactly which of the many new and newly-abandoned standards matters most, but perhaps two of the biggest upsets have been the abandonment of quick-release (QR) skewers and the move to flat-mount brakes.\nRoad bikes had quick releases for the better part of a century because they were a simple and highly effective way to retain a wheel, and allowed for rapid wheel changes too.\nThru-axles, however, offer increased stiffness, improved wheel security and more consistent disc rotor alignment. So their takeover has been all but inevitable \u2013 even though they are invariably slower to install or remove than quick releases.\nAs a result, the first generation of road disc frames is now somewhat orphaned by its quick-release compatible dropouts. Mercifully, many wheels that ship with thru-axle hubs can be converted to QR, but that may not always be the case.\nTo rub salt in the wound, road thru-axle standards have jumped around a bit too \u2013 many early road bikes came with a 15mm front \/ 12mm rear combo, but 12mm \/ 12mm is now the norm.\nThere are even a handful of drop-bar bikes such as the Focus Atlas with Boost mountain bike-style spacing, and don\u2019t get us started on the number of thru-axle thread standards out there.\n\n Nominal thru-axle sizes have almost settled down, but different thread standards mean compatibility is still far from simple. Matthew Loveridge \/ Immediate Media\nBrake calipers underwent a similar upheaval. The first wave of disc road bikes used post-mount calipers just like mountain bikes, but in 2014 Shimano launched the flat-mount standard that\u2019s now more-or-less universal.\nThe latest road and gravel groupsets are flat mount-only so if you\u2019re building up an older frameset, you\u2019re going to have mix and match components, perhaps borrowing from brands\u2019 mountain bike ranges. Standards are fun, eh?\n5. 1\u00d7 road bike drivetrains\n\n 3T\u2019s Strada was a really interesting piece of design and it rode superbly, but it didn\u2019t launch a new wave of 1\u00d7 road bikes. Matthew Loveridge \/ Immediate Media\nWe know this one will be controversial and maybe it won\u2019t age well, but despite some headline-grabbing product launches and the increasing popularity of 1\u00d7 in the gravel segment, 1\u00d7 for the road has stubbornly failed to catch on.\n3T made waves back in 2017 when it launched the Strada, a 1\u00d7-only aero road bike with tyre clearances that were generous by the standards of the time.\nThe brand also promised to solve the problem of 1\u00d7 road gearing with smart new cassette ratios.\n\n 3T\u2019s cassettes group gears slightly differently to mainstream options to improve the 1\u00d7 experience. Matthew Loveridge \/ Immediate Media\nThis was to be the future of road cycling and 3T even sponsored pro team Aqua Blue Sport to prove the tech.\nDespite public interest in the bikes and praise for the brand\u2019s forward-thinking, riders publicly complained about being forced to compete on 1\u00d7 and amid other shenanigans, the team folded.\nMeanwhile, the buying public seemingly had little appetite for 1\u00d7 road bikes, perhaps because while 1\u00d7 drivetrains offer clear advantages when you\u2019re riding off-road, it\u2019s less clear-cut on tarmac.\nRange and gear spacing remain an issue and current options still tend to compromise to some extent on one or the other.\n\n 1\u00d7 hasn\u2019t gone mainstream on the road, but the options for gravel such as Campagnolo\u2019s Ekar groupset have got better and better. Matthew Loveridge \/ Immediate Media\nSaying that, SRAM\u2019s latest 12-speed groupsets get closer than most to offering a truly useful 1\u00d7 option for the road. And Campagnolo\u2019s Ekar groupset does an arguably even better job, although its gearing is focused on gravel riding \u2013 there\u2019s no pure road option at the moment.\nCould 1\u00d7 for the road still have legs? Watch this space.\nThose are our top five picks \u2013\u00a0do you think we missed any?
