@ascentale @bikenite A7: we build a "road train" once to get these 6m long steel tubes home.

First ride after tube replacement went well. I checked all the tire pressures. I knew some would need it because I checked the good front tire yesterday and it was down. And then my mini-compressor needed charging again before I could get to the desired pressure. But the one installed yesterday and pumped by hand by the mech was a bit low as well, and the rear one needed more.

Hard as rocks ride (I wish I could have afforded full suspension), but no flats!

@JillsJoy Thanks. If you can see my reply to my toot, I made an update from Schwalbe, who made that very suggestion!

So if I can source it where I am, I'll be getting that put in. #BikeNite #BikeTooter #Cycling #CargoBike #Recumbent

@ascentale From the answer, it sounded to me like speed/acceleration is a factor. That is, motorization makes it so the rim can go faster than the tube is going unless you create more friction that grabs the tube. #BikeNite #BikeTooter #Cycling #CargoBike #Recumbent

Got a question, but I suspect tonight's #BikeNite queue is full and I need an answer quicker than next week:

If you ride your cycle ~ every other day, how often should you be checking your tire pressure?

@ascentale @bikenite #BikeNite A1: Posting from Zurich, Switzerland after a hiatus of several BikeNites, mostly due to being tired on Fridays and busy on the weekends.

My GF has a #Chike #cargobike she bought as car replacement but doesn't use it much. And since I know I can ride my #Brompton Electric G-Line with studded tires all winter and not just on snowy or icy days, my Mr. #Winterbrompton kinda got unemployed. And I have an old foldable bike trailer I dislike for its hitch.

@adingbatponder needs a good microphone/headset (via @sam)

Q5. Anyone know of a reliable #microphone and how to use it for #telephoning with decent sound on a smartphone while #cycling ?

I can #telephone in the car fine but on #bike I have to abort most calls. Is there a trick I can use to have decent sound without wind and clothes rubbing mic, background noise, etc?

Do I have to wear a #motorcycle #helmet for the #soundquality?

Thanks for any tips!
