Scary to think about, isn't it? Can't even imagine her chain of thought as it went from a seemingly silly thing then got worse and worse...
Also, it's my understanding that windows on lots of cars these days may be strong enough that most of those emergency window breaker hammer dealios won't...
A few different articles on the interwebs make it sound like a deadly combination of her accidentally putting the car in reverse due to poor design issues (that Tesla knows about), an inability to escape the vehicle when it hit the water (again, potential design flaws), and possibly a slow...
How often and where are you diving that you want your own scuba gear? I've been certified for years and but don't go often enough to justify the cost, space, imminent obsolescence, etc. I own a mask, snorkel and fins but rent everything else.

You're just debating theoretical aspects at this point. No, just because I may be over-braked in the rear does not mean my front brake is inadequate. :crazy:
I misunderstood your earlier comment, which appeared to say just that.
I think this where I (and others) just disagree. Call it "extreme" if you want to be dramatic, but yes we adapt. And personally I don't want to self-handicap by lowering rear brake performance based on a desire to...
Not trying to convince you of anything, you do you.
All else being equal, even it's true a smaller rotor might dissipate heat better, won't it also absorb more in the first place? And isn't that where you get issues with fluid temperature, friction loss, etc. (experienced as fade), especially...
I'll take a weight penalty for more power/less effort, particularly on long sustained descents. So I ride 200mm front and rear on trail/enduro bikes (and 220/200 on my ebike). I don't remember ever thinking my brakes had too much power or not enough fade, but the opposite is definitely true...
That's not my experience at all, at least not on more advanced trails in the Bay Area, Santa Cruz, and Sierra regions (and beyond). I see high-end e-bikes being used by good, fit riders to access advanced trails all the time, especially where there is no shuttle access. I'm not going pro anytime...

Jacko winning Mt. St. Anne last year has to be one of the best runs from a first-year elite rider ever. And doing shit like Hardline, boosting to the moon at McGazza Fest just for fun, etc.? I mean, come on. It's impossible to compare a rookie to a...
Really guys? Props to Banshee for heavily discounting bikes like everyone else but convincing people they're just being altruistic in doing so. :clapping:
The more you know:
"Beer, wine, and spirits are co-conspirators in one of the kitchen’s biggest myths. It’s widely believed that dishes made with alcohol are rendered non-alcoholic in the process of, say, simmering a beurre blanc sauce or baking a bourbon pecan pie. In reality, no matter how...
