A security guard at a nuclear power plant or riding in an armored car on the other hand has a legit potential need for one. Not everyone in private security is Paul Blart. You don't know what you're talking about. I am part of my malls RRT (Rapid Response Team), we all have MP5s and nightvision goggles. If it's a sale like Black Friday, we've got snipers on the roofs of businesses across the street to cover all entry and exit points. God those mall ninja posts

Not if its a semi decent bike wheel it wont (i presume you mean wheel, not tire). You'd think a cop bike, of all things, should be built fairly tough given hes going to have the expectation of riding down steps etc. Any non crap bike wheel (even a lightweight road wheel) should be capable of...turning. Which is all that cop was doing.

Takes No Damage posted:The rim is a wheel, wrapping it in a tube and rubber makes it a tire The entire assembly is a wheel. The tire is the tire. Or tyre if ya nasty, and I am. The rim is the metal ring the tyre and tube go on, and it's laced to the hub by spokes. The tyre, tube, rim, spokes, spoke nipples and hub are the main components of a fully built wheel. A properly built, high quality wheel should not do that, with the speed he was going and the angle he was turning at. I can guarantee you that none of my bikes would do that under those circumstances, even if I put 130kg of ham and ham accessories on them. A child also absolutely could not bend a wheel, unless you didn't mean by hand. By riding? Sure, all they have to do is turn the bars 90 degrees before "landing" a sick jump (and going to hospital  )Roblo posted:You'd think a cop bike, of all things, should be built fairly tough given hes going to have the expectation of riding down steps etc. Any non crap bike wheel (even a lightweight road wheel) should be capable of...turning. Which is all that cop was doing. They seem to be mostly on par with the kind of heavy-rear end 3x8 bike you'd get for a few hundred bux. Not particularly high quality, a couple steps above a Big W/Walmart bike, but with massive markups on them because they do poo poo like getting them from Smith & Wesson. Apparently, cycle cops are usually trained in their own bike maintenance. I wouldn't be shocked if that wheel hasn't been maintained, because wheel maintenance is an arcane art to inexperienced mechanics. Plus, knowing cop training, I'm guessing cycle cop bike maintenance training probably involves watching hours of bodycam footage of cops stacking their bikes due to mechanical failures in lieu of actually teaching them how to prevent them.

Takes No Damage posted:The rim is a wheel, wrapping it in a tube and rubber makes it a tire As others have pointed out, this is pretty much all wrong. No semi decent bike wheel should bend in that situation, even with a fat cop on the bike. Even a decent lightweight road bike wheel, let along a "mountain bike" (I use that term loosely) like that. As others have said that's barely a step up from a lovely Walmart bike. See videos of people doing trials on road bikes for examples.

Even a cheap walmart bike wheel will have more lateral strength than that one. I bet the rim was already compromised from having a porky cop wearing gear ride off curbs and stairs a bunch. Anecdotally, I once caught my pedal on the ground in a turn hard enough to lift the back wheel up off the ground and then slam it back down with my weight still in the saddle. It had a nasty warp in it but I just pulled the wheel and smacked it on the ground to take enough of the bend out to ride 5 miles back to the nearest bike shop to buy a replacement to get home. This was a fairly narrow and lightweight road bike wheel. HenryJLittlefinger has a new favorite as of 16:34 on Oct 8, 2023 |

Someone who says wheels fold easy enough for a child to do it has never seen a motivated drunk person trying to kick in wheels. They bend but it takes more than a few boots to cave them in.

I'm assuming that last guy braked hard for some reason? I don't know why he would but otherwise it's got to be the tiny invisible wall. The ones who try to step off the bike in motion are even dumber though. Do they have no awareness of how fast they're moving? Or do they lack the basic understanding of momentum that most of us developed as small children?

Well, there's nothing better than a cat biffing it. Except cops falling off bikes, maybe. gently caress, I could watch cops fall off bikes all day, I don't give a poo poo about your cops.
