I have 10 speed Shimano 7970 Di2 on a bike. Bought it early 2010. I only put a thousand or so miles on it each year. But it has never given me any trouble at all. I charge the battery every 2-3 years for fun since it has never died on me. It just works. I have lots of cable shifting bikes too. They all work too. I must be an oddball extremist. All my bikes just work without any problems. Sure wish I could be a normal person with unending bike problems to worry about every day of the week.
I think you need to snap up a bunch of random bike frames whenever you
see a "good buy." Then buy a bunch of oddball components, being careful
not to do any measuring or research beforehand. Try to assemble the
results into bikes you can sell for profit. It will make your life and
your posts here so much more interesting!


I think that everyone should be like you and ride a high wheeler as a proven technology. Or one touring bicycle that you've had so long you've work out 9 freewheels.

You must be confused. _You_ are the one who claims to have hit his head
on a tree branch seven feet above the ground. That would require a high
wheeler.

I'm the one who has never had that problem, because my head stays below
the height of most ordinary pickups and vans.


Again, the confusion was all yours, YOU are the one that claimed that the tree branch was 7' above the ground on the basis of a Google Maps picture that was made before the trees were grown to the state they are now. I sit about 6' above the ground in the saddle and should have ducked under some heavy leaves but didn't expect a branch anywhere near that large under them.

As I say, your Alzheimer's is getting in the way of your conversations. Not to mention that your sheer ignorance doesn't help.
