Colorado B.S. Thread

Luckily it seems to really only be the bumper cosmetically, I'm going to take it off this weekend and inspect it more. It drove fine on the way home so there's that. Looking at the lil b fab hybrid bumper as an upgrade. Sucks though, I was about to buy new uca's, now I'm debating which I buy first...

 

That blows.. definitely have your LCA, UCS, shocks, axle, etc all looked at. May not be noticeable but if they smacked your tire it could of bent some things

 

Sad sad sad day. My condolences

 

Performed some diy project and experimentation this spring. I insulated my 3rd bay garage door with polyiso board. I was waiting to do the main door until the summer to see if it was worth the trouble. I'd say it's worth the meticulous trouble. Not bad for 50$ worth of board

 

Cleaned and detailed and Took armor off to clean and replace some bolts :/ (locktite will be my friend) after the holiday. Getting alignment.

 

Just got off the phone with insurance, going to get it inspected and go from there. Hopefully everything's ok mechanically.

 

Im soooooo bored 10 days ago i had a ACDF 5-7 (anterior cervicle disc fusion)
My spinal cord was pinched causing numbness in my fingers.
Im out of work for 12 weeks
Cant lift shit over a 10 lbs ,no bending lifting twisting.
Cant mow my lawn
Cant walk my dog.
Cant drive yet.
I can online shop though

you dont realize how much stuff you do,until you should not do it.

Happy Friday Bitches!!!!!

 

Honestly man, it's pretty easy to DIY. You have the tools? I'd be down to help ya out for some beer when I'm done with my suspension update if not. Oh I forgot though, if you don't have the springs compressed, you can call around for really any shop that has a compressor. That is one thing I won't do, even places like Autozone might have one they'd let you use / do it for you. Not 100% sure.

 

Get well soon Becca

 

Thanks Jeremy
I feel really good just cant do shit!!

 

Hoping for a speedy and full recovery.

And that Amazon Prime Day doesn’t destroy your bank account

Third Gen peps who have had the 3rd brake light campaign done:
Who was the best?
Who was the worst?
Were you able to leave your shell/topper on if it had a removable rear window?
How long did it take?
GO!

 

THIS is the best gen. Best approach/departure/break-over angles, best gas mileage, most power.

 

This will probably be my last costal bumper build after their customer service treatment due to them sending me the wrong bumper. It took a month to get it resolved and the correct bumper to me.

 

Prime Daze
Have been looking at an e-bike for a few weeks. Price started at $1399.99.
On sale for $999.00, not only on Amazon, but also on the company website.
Last night the timer started counting down on the deal expiration.
Ended up falling asleep, decided I didn't really need another bike.
This morning, another $300 off was offered.
Hard to say no to a $1400 e-bike for $700.
It'll be here next week.

 

How unfortunate and disappointing. They charge to much for shit service

 

Quality of service is lacking all over these days..

 

FYI - most bike shops will not work on any e-bikes that have hub motors and also a lot of non-name brand motor/battery configurations. Their liability insurance won’t cover them if they have an issue caused by bikes with bad electronics and catch on fire. They won’t even change a flat or other non-electric motor/battery/wiring issues due to this.

 

Researching these e-bikes, they are as hated among the pedal pushers as much as we dislike the SxS's on the trails. As I get older, I still want to ride, but not necessarily break a sweat pedaling. Just some light cardio. Maybe a quick rip to Taco Bell and back.
There are 3 levels of e-bike. Level 1 is pedal assist only up to 20mph, no throttle
Level 2 is pedal assist up to 20mph, throttle limited to 20mph.
Both of those are allowed on Fort Collins bike trails. But not the dirt trails, paved only.
Level 3 is pedal assist and throttle that limits out around 25-28mph.
Those are allowed on the street, bike lanes on the streets, but not trails and CPW allows them anywhere a regular car/truck/motorcycle can go, but not on the MTN bike trails.
SWA land is the same as CPW
Lori State Park allows level three e-bikes on all it's trails, might actually have to get the pass. Sucks that I just renewed the truck plates and opted out of that pass.
Above 30mph with a throttle seems to be currently a gray area, maybe considered a motorcycle, pedals or not.
