You make a strong argument, my good man.Hey, SS, sure you don't wanna blow off work and ride your newfangled bike down Porcupine?
Be careful not to be hacked just by advertising the connectivity capabilities:I like my idea better. Give the bike bluetooth so it can connect to your phone, but no actual function for the bluetooth other than connecting. I'm sure the bike companies could charge more for this.
You forgot the part about blowing sealant all over the place.Pump, pump, pump, dammit, the phone just went back to sleep again...
What happens in Downieville stays in Downieville. Except when it goes on YouTube.You forgot the part about blowing sealant all over the place.
That might actually be pretty cool. I thought of a similar idea a few years ago while climbing a hill with a chain that I forgot to lube, listening to it grind away and thought "why can't this thing lube itself?". That's just less time spent working on the bike, and more time riding*. Although, using a water bottle mount for the chain lube reservoir is sub-optimal.
"...the whole ethos of chain performance..."
Their name has made me hate them already. Kill list.That might actually be pretty cool.

* Assuming the device itself requires significantly less time to operate/use/maintain than just lubing the chain per normal.
FixedIf you need lube mid ride, you're doing big rides.
- Yeah when I'm on a very long trip far from home the one thing saving me from dying is having 30psi not 35psi.The ability to self-support in these conditions then becomes more critical so accurate tire pressure reading and the ability to make tire pressure adjustments become really important.
