The Biggest Troll on RBT

That's under administrative hair splitting, which I probably should have called "newsgroup administrative hair splitting". To be totally clear about this, it is necessary to precisely define what you mean by "periodic polling" and how one differentiates a "discussion" from the traditional insults, assaults on integrity, and defamation of character. Once these are established, we can discuss the precise time period implied by your term "no longer". Also, thank you for not mentioning my periodic dumping of concept bicycle designs in an apparently futile effort to inspire readers to design something new and different. -- Jeff Liebermann 150 Felker St #D http://www.LearnByDestroying.com Santa Cruz CA 95060 http://802.11junk.com Skype: JeffLiebermann AE6KS 831-336-2558 |

I could have sworn that over the last several months I've seen questions on "rear axle position", "Tire Width vs Rim Width", "Square Taper BB's", " Rejuvenating hardened brake pads by sanding them down?", "Chain Line", "Floor Pumps" and many more. I suppose people cannot remember the actual technical questions since others are so ready to hijack conversations to stupid inconsequential experiences. |

Andrew Muzi But Andrew, every time I pose a techincal enquiry, nobody responds. Take for example the time I asked for help lacing up some square wheels in order to go climb some stairs on my bike. The problem is not lacing but rather calculating the required spoke lengths. The easy way is to visualize the square wheel as a series of round rims where the diameter varies with the position on the square wheel. The spoke lengths repeat themselves every 45 degrees, so for a 32 spoke wheel, you only need to calculate 4 lengths. Another problem is whether to drill the rim for equal angles between the spokes, or equal spacing along the circumference of the rim. The typical round bicycle wheel has both equal spacing and equal angles. The square wheel can be either one, but not both. Looking at the photos: https://www.google.com/search?q=square+bicycle+wheels&tbm=isch it seems that equal angle is the most popular because it eliminates "bunching" of the spokes at the corners and is likely to be stronger. Therefore, you will need to do some geometry to calculate the 4 required spoke lengths. Also, note that drilling a spoke hole into the corners of the square wheel is impossible. Therefore, the spoke hole locations will need to be rotated: 360 /32 /2 = 5.625 degrees to avoid the problem. This will affect all the spoke lengths and must be considered in the calculations. I could probably produce a formula or spreadsheet to do the calculations. However, I would not want to be responsible for injuries or fatalities that might result from the misapplication of such knowledge. Sorry. Also, to properly utilize square bicycle wheels, you will need a mating road surface. This should help: http://www.exploratorium.edu/square_wheels/square_wheels.pdf Should this prove successful, you might recommend it to the local municipality for paving bicycle paths, so that only square wheel bicycles can use it. -- Jeff Liebermann 150 Felker St #D http://www.LearnByDestroying.com Santa Cruz CA 95060 http://802.11junk.com Skype: JeffLiebermann AE6KS 831-336-2558 Finally, a technical solution to those damned rumble strips on road shoulders! Sure, it will take a while to change wheels at the beginning and ends of each rumble strip. But it might be worth it. - Frank Krygowski |

The post relates to Scharf's authenticity as Scharf is an employed writer journalist and now elected rep in the hi level areas.
Atl is an escape from the South area of warehousing, Good Ole Boy politics, and afro American influence. The pocket of Rebs now stands at 50/50 liberal conservative. The vote is manifestation of Change. The Core Change is expressed thru the election. The election does not Change the Core. |
