can anyone fucking explain me why maintenance of bike is way fucking more difficult than a car? a bike - two wheels and a few screws with gears. car - a whole shitload of complex mechanical/electrical/hydraulic stuff that intended to work in a particular order. i bought a brand new bike, rode with it a few dozen of kilometers and that shit fell apart right on the road. chain kept getting off, gears kept skipping, the gear switcher doesnt work properly. the only thing that worked as intended were brakes and wheels. i came home fucking furious. i bought this shit BRAND NEW and i have to hassle with fucking adjustments? is this 20th century all over again? Hello??? BRAND NEW ITEM NEEDS WRENCHING. i own a 20 year old shitbox that rides better and needs less maintenance that this abomination on two wheels. okay i went to shop for them to wrench and fix stuff. they did. after a while a felt that chain may rub again against derailleur. i turned a few screws to adjust and EVERYTHING FUCKED UP AGAIN. its been almost a month since i got on my bike. everyime i get it out to fix it, everything fails i just fucking smash it on the ground and leave it laying again. is there some sort of 101 for dummies on how to reset and properly get your bike ready? i have done DIY on a car without zero mechanical knowledge and still managed to get job done. the fact that i cant fix a damn bicycle fill me with biggest fucking rage.
