3/19/2024 3:04am You are the one being misleading. less than 10% of rape actually get reported to the police. The remaining 90% are still rape/SA. 20% of victims don't report to the police because of victim blaming from the aggressor or public discourse. another 20% of victims don't report to the police because they fear retaliation from the aggressor And another 15% of victims don't report to the police because they don't believe the police or the judicial systems would be helpful in their case.

3/19/2024 3:04am Let me help you with where to start- don't talk about things you have no idea about. In 2021, more than 30,000 rape reports were filed by women in France. 1,413 convictions were made that year. https://www.statista.com/statistics/1103661/rape-on-woman-age-victim-fr… https://www.statista.com/statistics/940739/convictions-for-rape-in-fran…

3/19/2024 3:02am That's not really backed up by the prosecution/conviction statistics at all. e.g.: "According to figures from the French Ministry of Gender Equality, every year in France, 94,000 women report being victims of rape or attempted rape. But in 2021, barely 1 percent of the reported assaults resulted in a conviction." In the UK it's still extremely hard to get a conviction for rape. I know someone who was drugged then raped, and despite a lot of evidence there was no conviction. I can imagine in somewhere like France it would be even harder just with what the prevailing attitude towards...

3/19/2024 3:00am I think the “incel” move is more to victim shame/blame and be convinced that all women secretly are wanting to sleep with men and just withhold their sexual favors out of a perverse desire to exercise power over men. At least that seems to be the mindset of the incel community I’ve had the misfortune to interact with. Not sure there’s much of that attitude evidenced at Vital.

3/19/2024 2:53am But wouldn't reporting on Thibaut getting a contract after an alleged sexual assault be fighting the whole boys' club image they are trying to ditch? Thibaut getting a ride among those rumors certainly reeks of a boys' club...

3/19/2024 2:47am Not odd at all with the recent changes over on PB. Completely different place over the last 12 months. Regarding the larger story, either more came out to Canyon or it finally reached the people that should have known prior to the signing. Either way it is a very poor look for Canyon to not have investigated privately prior to signing him. That being said, corporate responsibility in these issues still leave a lot to be desired. Take a look at how Redbull is handling the Chris Horner issue where they cleared him and then put the accuser on unpaid...

tabletop84 Added a reply to 170mm 36 vs 38 fork: which would you prefer?
3/14/2024 1:37am I have a question to the flex pros itt: Why does a 180 mm zeb a scott ransom eride feel flexier than the 2023er e-optimized (thicker walled steerer and stanctions) 36 in another ebike (conway ewme 2019)? Is it mostly due to the 20mm more travel or is the scott frame that much flexier? Its looking burlier tho than the...

3/13/2024 5:51am There is also the 36 ebike version but I think it only is compatible with a 160 mm air shaft max if I'm not mistaken. But maybe marzzochi could be an option. I'm using the 36 ebike on a mid-weight ebike where it doesn't look too burly like the 38 and its perfect for my terrain. Only the Grip2 seems...

3/6/2024 9:13am It retails at over £10k here in the UK. I'd say that's more a case of one bike for the price of two.

2/28/2024 7:23am I also mobilized the pistons many times but that only helped until I did a steep and long alpine descent. It seems to correspond to high load scenarios like brake heavy alpine descends, ebike etc.

2/22/2024 9:35am I also get this problem before the pads are heavily worn. But maybe I damaged the quad ring by doing it idk. I had this with two calipers and I'm running the thicker HS2 sram disc which might be also a factor.
tabletop84 Added a reply to Shimano... Magura... Shigura Brake Setup
2/22/2024 3:48am Anyone else has the problem that the pistons always end up coming out unevenly and on side of the pads rubs on the disc? It could also be that I exacerbated this problem by running my pads all the way down. Or its because of the heavy strain by mainly using them on long descents on the ebike (but I'm...

12/8/2023 8:12am Not sure if it matters, but my bike is listed as a 2024. I'll check the motor tomorrow and see if it's designated a 23 or 24.

12/5/2023 5:44am Really interesting! The only thing keeping me from pulling the trigger on a orbea rise is the rattle (and maybe the non removable battery but should be manageable). But its kinda weird that I read and hear accounts like the video I linked above that say and show that at least some ep801 rattle similar to their predecessor.

12/5/2023 5:35am I did that much movement because I was trying to get it to rattle. There were several minutes before filming and it doesn't matter how slow or fast, there's no rattle. As soon as you stop pedaling it's silent other than the freehub. On a ride yesterday there were a bunch of downhill sections with chattery rocks, horse hoof prints, roots, rain ruts, and no rattle anywhere on the trail. I did notice a little vibration at certain cadence and load, but no noise. I'll definitely keep tabs on it though, I'm pretty sensitive to noises and vibrations. I'll tear...

12/5/2023 12:12am Interesting although you did the test with a bit more movement. Do you really not hear any rattle if you push the bike slowy rolling forward while doing it so to relieve chain tension or when you coast down a trail?
