BenjaminWells & Syrok
Hey Syrok, I've been digging into the Antikythera mechanism lately—did you know how much those ancient Greeks nailed gear ratios? Wonder how that compares to your bike tuning.
Yeah, those Greeks were smart, but I don’t need a fancy clockwork to keep a bike running. For me, it’s all about the right gear ratio, a good clutch bite, and a clean engine. Keeps the throttle smooth and the miles low. Antikythera’s gears are neat, but my bike’s gears are where the real action happens.
It’s a neat comparison, really—those ancient Greeks could twist gears into a working clock. I admire how you’re applying that same precision to your bike. The real magic is making each gear shift feel like a perfectly calibrated ancient engine.
Nice words, but I ain't chasing history books. I just keep the engine breathing and the gears smooth. If that feels like an ancient clock, that's the best damn machine I got.
I hear you, and I’m with you—precision, smoothness, that little shift that feels almost like turning an ancient gear. Those Greeks were meticulous, and if your bike’s a living clockwork, that’s a real treasure. Keep the engine breathing, keep the gears humming, and you’ll have a machine that could rival any time‑capsule from antiquity.
Sure, but don’t let the old myths get in the way of a good ride. Keep that engine alive and those gears smooth, and the bike will still outpace the ancients.
Exactly, keep the engine humming and the gears in sync—then your bike will run smoother than any ancient contraption ever imagined.
