I'm not a computer guy. I'm a bicycle guy.
I build them up myself, buy cheap ones on ebay to fix and modify, know basically all there is to know about stem standards, drivetrain compatibility, etc.
I currently have 6 non-functional bikes in my garage.
The key is to call them all "pet projects" that are "still being worked on" and then not do anything with them for another month.
(Engineering/Tech guy here)
just a month?
Renew as needed :)
I've seen "my other car is 10 motorcycles that don't run" stickers before and I felt personally attacked
I just bought my fourth oneplus 6 phone. Two are non functional. Maybe this will be the one where I finally get linux running on my phone lol
I also have four non functional bikes
Hey, I am also trying to get OnePlus 6 for that purpose.
Or N900 for shits and giggles.
you can get em new in the box on ebay. the used ones can be sketch.
eBay is pretty useless where I am. At least with their filtering. If only they included shipping in price filter.
Otherwise, the average item is along the lines of $5 + $50 shipping.
Yeah, they are either shipped accross the world or some scumbag that tries to make easy money (ebay don't tax you on the money for the shipping)
yeah these ship from china so whatever that costs where you are.
Me but with cameras. I have 2, maybe 3 working ones. Lots and lots of bits of others.
N+1
Any functional bikes tho? [or should I guess lol]
Yes, 1.
