For mountain biking, a hardtail (only front suspension) is pretty good for most rides and always cheaper, but a full sus (rear and front suspension) is useful if you’re doing more advanced technical riding, also a lot of nicer suspension has lockout function specifically for climbing to prevent energy loss

[@mattcase5870]

my old fezzarri diamond back had a lockout with a buffer tube in the center rail. super convient

[@scpgypsyman]

You are talking about his shoulder right?

[@BaldMancTwat]

@@scpgypsyman He also has put a lot of things in his mouth over the years that he should not have.

[@kpinto16]

Speaking from over 10 years of mountain biking, racing, XC and downhill, rear suspension makes a massive difference and is worth every penny. I had hardtail bikes for a long time and finally forked over the money for an enduro bike with a rear coil shock and 170mm on the front fork, it really makes a huge difference. With rear suspension and a good front fork you can take TONS more speed into terrain that previously seemed sketchy and handle jumps and drop to fairly flat landings with no problems. There are different rear shocks for different things, it sounds like Niko is looking for something smaller and stiffer in the rear if he won't be hitting huge jumps and extremely technical terrain at high speed. You can also hit switches or knobs on nicer rear shocks to tighten them for hill climbs. Bikes are expensive, but if you get a nice frame and decent suspension to start, it will last a long time (assuming it is taken care of properly). Most other components are fairly cheap and easy to replace yourself. Just remember to get your suspension serviced! Happy riding! (PS: Use PinkBike, great resource)

For Wren at the 19:00 topic. Look into "deer horns" or "deer whistles", they were used in the country when I was a kid (almost 3 decades ago) so idk if it even is manufactured in 2021 or if it would work for the purpose of alerting cars but it would give you the ability to have your bike make a noise.

Ik this podcast is kinda old at this point, but I’d recommend getting front suspension and seat suspension. Rear suspension on a bike isn’t as effective as people think in my opinion

[@JiriTrubac]

Wren, for your knots ... Use your massage stick, by applying a gentle pressure to the belly of the levator muscle, located in the superior angle of your scapula, constantly, for about two minutes. You should feel the muscle giving, when your brain sends the signal, "hey, there's too much pressure here." Follow this simple relief technique, by drinking a glass of water, to drain the toxins, which you've just released, by softening the knots. Hope that helps!

It has to do with the geometry of most two wheeled vehicles, bikes and motorcycles, they get more stable the faster you go.

[@tdwolf21]

I'm an engineer that has worked in the design and fabrication of various class 3 medical devices and the risk analysis for the device design, process and user use is usually calculated on the severity of the clinical effect, the probability of it occurring, and the probably of it being detected and prevented before it happens. It's often the most tedious part of the design and process development process because you just spend weeks asking the question "what if". What if your supplier sends us the wrong material, and it's not biocompatible and we use it in the device, well, the user gets infected, doesn't die, but we have a lot of checks to make sure this doesn't happen. Very low risk. What if the operator makes a critical error during the manufacturing process? Device doesn't function properly, user dies, and we don't have many checks to make sure this doesn't happen. Very high risk, we need to perform risk mitigation steps now.

Niko asking : " is breaking bones sort of a routine for you? " just made my day so much better

[@SatanSupimpa]

When Niko asked what ossify means, I was like "C'mon Niko, it sounds pretty obvious". But actually sounds obvious just to me, because my first language is portuguese, and the portuguese translation for bone is osso.

[@nicklaskowalski]

Same here but from French, bone = Os

Niko: "Everything should have the brake pedal built into the accelerator" Engine Braking: "Am I a joke to you"

[@PureRushXevus]

54:40 I'm listening to this on my PC with speakers, in the other room tweaking my printer.. and suddenly I hear my country, lol :p Also Niko (and anyone else wondering about bikes), rear suspension have to be pretty stiff in order not to lose a lot of energy output by you / a motor, since if it's very soft, the bike bounces up and down a lot which wastes energy. A better (and much cheaper) alternative in terms of comfort, might be to get a seat-post with suspension built in.

[@chili24137]

Niko, to answer your question about rear suspension on a mountain bike vs a hardtail, it's a decent amount of difference, especially when moving quickly. If you're going down a trail going quickly a good rear suspension can make a bunch of small bumps feel significantly smoother and give you a lot more confidence to keep the bike in control. At lower speeds I feel the difference is generally less significant unless you're riding some really gnarly technical sections. I think your best bet is to just try it yourself, rent a full suspension bike on saturday, then a hardtail on sunday, take them to the same trail and give it a shot. Enjoy the process, good luck.

[@tonybohn2648]

I laugh at your LA "mountains" being a Colorado native.

[@amansizedduck]

[@amansizedduck]

And they also talk about their mountains the same way Coloradans do...interesting.

[@AlasdairGR]

Same here as a Utah native. LA mountains are glorified hills in comparison.

[@davidarifine]

Rear suspension on a mountain bike makes a big difference

[@averynicebean]

For Niko's question: They have rear suspension on mountain bikes that can "lock" the hydraulic system so that it becomes a hard tail. Makes it easier to climb. Otherwise mountain biking without a rear suspension is not great.

[@davidrockwell2343]

Rear suspension is amazing in rock gardens on MTB trails anywhere else it's overkill honestly a nice tall tire wall with a low psi in the tyres is more than enough suspension for everyday riding

[@chckn0078]

you guys should try downhill mountain biking, its super rad.

I was playing with a Little Tikes wagon and instead of putting it away normally I decided to stand in it and surf it down the hill which at the bottom of it was a fence and I smashed my face right into the metal pole in the fence and busted my head open. I think everyone has a childhood injury story lmao.

I can appreciate the urge for more EV's, personal/commuter/public, at the same time, there needs to be a better solution for the battery. If Wren could do a video on lithium and cobalt mining, the current controversies that NEED resolved there, and what better long term battery solutions are in the works, I think it would be pretty eye opening for everyone.
