I removed the transmission from my car. It's much lighter and less likely to get stolen.! Nice!
Lmao
Those two aren't even comparable lmao
@@chichiboki6563 it's all I can think of and it sounded hilarious! Lol
@@chichiboki6563 yeah they are the chain is what gets the rotationnal travel from the pedal to the wheel which makes the wheel spin and the transmission is what transfers the travel created by the engine to the driveshaft and to the axels which spins the wheels and makes the car move
@@chichiboki6563 transmission connects the engine (pedals) to the wheels (rear wheel)... It's a perfect metaphor. The chain is literally the transmission for a bicycle.

I removed the outlet plugs from my walls. Having the exposed wires and open circuitry allows for far better electroconductivity throughout my house.

The story is actually really interesting because you’re not using your bike for travelling you’re using your bike tricks and use it as a BMX bike, but it cannot generate its own momentum. Basically completely challenged the concept of a bike I like that

you can actually achieve that thru practice. you can even make turns no hands.
Around 2009 or so I was downhill MTB in Downieville Ca and my good friend snapped master link about 30 minutes into the 15 mile downhill ride and proceeded to snap his spare master link about 15 minutes after replacing it. Being too far into the ride at that point to hike out he BOMBED the rest of the downhill without a chain on his Santa Cruz Nomad!!!! He fuckin flew it was an awesome trip he led our squad of 6 a majority of the downhill because he couldn’t pedal up the climbs so he just bombed 😂 man what a good time that was!!

I took my trucks off my skateboard. Now it has no wheels either, because those were attached to the trucks. So now it’s just a deck that I try to push around on, scraping on the ground.
But it’s much lighter now, so that’s good.
Have you ever thought of replacing the pedals with straight pegs? you could probably invent some entirely new tricks
There's bikes like this for sell
That’s insane lol I remember a flatlander back in the day that had an axle with pegs through his bottom bracket and pumped everywhere he went lol insane🎉
On today's episode of "why I drive a car without an engine"
Try helicopter.
Actually very relatable. Everyone always asks why i use the heaviest gear exclusively on my mountain bike. Got hit by a car while I was in that gear and broke the gear change mech on the handle bar. I got so used to it since I couldn’t afford a new one. I had to pull up so aggressively on the handle bar to generate extra force down on the pedal to take off quickly that my front tire would pop off the ground. When i finally got a new bike nothing else felt right. The power of adapting to poverty 😂
But you would buy a chain right?
@@svenvanwier7196 He literally said he couldn't afford one
Mans basically said “I couldn’t buy new grip tape for my board, so I rode without it and realized I couldn’t do tricks with tape anymore”

It's odd but cool too! :) My only question is have you considered ditching the cranks, for pegs or small foot pads?
I have considered this, but I still use the movement of the cranks a lot. For this reason I feel like switching over would limit what I could do.
@@whatslucasup2 I saw the vid of you explaining that not long after I posted that!! LOL :) Thank you though! :) Keep having fun :)
What are cranks
@@william318__ The arms that hold the pedals. Without the chain on, they are just a couple extra pounds of weight. Not much difference if they stay or get taken off. It's more a preference thing. (Could affect how your shift your weight for little pushes here and there though too.)
I do flatland and I removed the cranks and pedals all together, running a front wheel in the rear too.
I removed the doors from my house so they don't get broken when someone comes to rob me.
I owned a convertible I had to keep on the street and left doors unlocked If someone wanted in they would 100% cut the top. Nothing left in car anyway but if they wanted to look I wouldnt have to buy new top
That’s sick but how do you go forward
Edit:it’s sounded rhetorical it’s just a question
It’s like those walker bikes kids have now. They just push off with their legs and that’s the only way they can generate speed besides going downhilll 😂
@@lucasmaniccia5132I’m pretty sure you can also generate momentum by craving back and forth, just like on longboards and penny boards
I'll actually answer this...initially yeh you push off like a scooter I guess but once your going you can build momentum by "pumping it" you go like left to right while bending your knees and pushing out again and it produces force and you get going, you can surprisingly go pretty fast like this it's just a work out and a half on the legs haha
