Reply to comment by RelativeMolasses4608 in S-Trax conversion kit could make yo' bike into a snowbike by giuliomagnifico

Unlike a similar kit made by Canadian manufacturer Envo, the S-Trax does not come standard with a motor. This means that if you don't already have an electric mountain bike with a mid-mount motor, you'll be turning the Crawler's track by muscle power alone. If you do have a mid-motor eMTB, though, a pedaling cadence of 60 to 70 rpm should reportedly be sufficient to maintain a speed of 25 to 30 km/h (16 to 19 mph), in a higher gear ratio. Here I posted it so you will be forced to actually read the article partially first.

I came from an 11 Pro to the 14 Pro, and I was not prepared for the giant lenses in the new phone. They’ve definitely gotten a bit too large at this point.

I use a pop socket wallet, and when taking pictures, I have to be mindful of where my fingers are at so they don’t cover part of the lenses. I never had that issue with my older, smaller iPhones.

I don't even know where my DSLR is any more, I stopped using it nearly 5 years ago when I got a Huawei P20 Pro and tried them side by side on a camping trip. Now it's finally dying and I don't know what to replace it with. In the last 2 years I've tried 3 top flagship phones ranked best for photography and they were all goddamn awful compared to the P20 Pro.

I'd be up for carrying a lightweight camera if they were linked so photos transferred onto the phone automatically - is that a thing yet?

Youre funny but youre right. LG business model is like that. They got great technology and research team only to be ruined by their shitty leadership, quality control, and shitty manufacturing management.

You can look at their batteries too and they are in the process of getting shot with their eyes wide open in their sleep.
