after the fun of import bullcrap taxes on parts for my a dece oasis ebike, i decided
i'm getting a simple 20" wheel thing
https://www.worten.pt/produtos/bicicleta-nilox-x0-20-preta-mrkean-8051122172474
same brand as the monitors i use, which are cheap and cheerful, 75hz, decent contrast ratio, i no complain
by the looks of the rig, it's all stan parts so i can get normal feets, normal brake cables, normal tires, normal wheels with normal fucking light steel rims (the rims it comes with are Al which is poopy but ok, cheap look at the price, cheap)
the most difficult part of this decision is that i will have to work about 2x harder to climb the hills
but the funnest part is that being able to use standard brake feet and wheels i can roll down the ridiculously steep short path down to the valley floor and not take the long route
and they are not thin, but not wide tires, the hwole thing is only 12kg, which is what a STEEL FRAME bike for me should weigh,
just a basic skeleton, and something that i know i will be able to transport internationally easily when it comes to it, and if not, lol, the price, bro
