Abantu baseSami bangabafuyi bezilwane ezifuywayo abahlala ezindaweni ezisenyakatho yeRussia, Finland, Norway naseSweden.Kunamagama ayi-180 amele iqhwa neqhwa.Kungashiwo okufanayo nangabagibeli bamabhayisikili abachitha ubusika kunoma yisiphi isimo sezulu sasenyakatho.Ngenxa yezinguquko zesizini ekukhanyeni kwelanga, izinga lokushisa kanye nemvula, kuhambisana nokungahambi kahle okwandayo kokushintsha kwesimo sezulu, kucishe kuqinisekiswe ukuthi azikho izinsuku ezimbili zokuhamba ngebhayisikili ezizofana ebusika.Lapho, ibhayisikili ekhuluphele lingasindisa umphefumulo womgibeli webhayisikili.
Abanye abantu bangase bacabange ukuthi ukuhamba ngebhayisikili ebusika kuzwakala njengesihogo esesabekayo kakhulu.Ngempela, ukuze ube nohambo olujabulisayo noluphephile, udinga ukwakha isu: Iyiphi isigaba esifanele abasebenzi betoho abanedijithi eyodwa?Amasondo agcwele noma amathayi angafakiwe?Ingabe isibani sami singasebenza?Ingabe ngizogibela emigwaqweni eneqhwa noma emigwaqweni yomgwaqo ukuze ngizibulale?Ngaphezu kokugibela ehlobo, kubaluleke kakhulu ukugibela kusengaphambili, ngoba ukwehluleka kwemishini (njenge-hypothermia noma i-frostbite) kungaba nemiphumela emihle.
Kodwa-ke, ukugibela ebusika, ukuntanta endaweni ethule ye-monochrome, kukhona nokuzindla okujulile.Sekuyisikhathi sokuyeka ukuphishekela imigomo kukaStrava njalo ujabulele umlingo wobusika obudlulayo.Njengoba ngigibela ebusuku futhi ngifika cishe ngo-4:45 ntambama lapho ngihlala, umoya waseJack London, ofaneleka kakhulu ukuphila, wandiswa kakhulu.
Emlandweni omude wamabhayisikili, amabhayisikili akhuluphele masha ngokuqhathaniswa: Ngo-1980, indoda engumFulentshi uJean Naude (Jean Naude) yaqhamuka nombono ohlakaniphile wokusebenzisa amathayi e-Michelin anengcindezi ephansi ukuze ashayele angu-800 oGwadule LwaseSahara.Amamayela amaningi.Ngo-1986, wengeza isondo lesithathu futhi wanyathela cishe amakhilomitha angu-2,000 ukusuka e-Algiers ukuya eTimbuktu.Ngesikhathi esifanayo, abagibeli bamabhayisikili e-Alaska bahlanganisa amarimu ukuze bakhe indawo ebanzi lapho kungagitshelwa khona i-Iditabike, idili lamamayela angu-200 emigwaqweni yesnowmobile kanye ne-dog swoop.Khonamanjalo, indoda okuthiwa u-Ray Molina eNew Mexico isebenzisa amathayi angu-3.5-intshi ukwenza amarimu angu-82mm ukugibela izindunduma kanye ne-Arroyos.Ngo-2005, umenzi wamabhayisikili waseMinnesota uSurly wadala iPugsley.IMarge Rim enkulu engu-65mm kanye namathayi e-Endomorph angu-3.7-intshi avumele uquqaba ukuthi lusebenzise amabhayisikili anamafutha.Lobu buchwepheshe bokukhanda bube yinsakavukela.
Amabhayisikili anamafutha ayevame ukufana nokuthi "isivinini esinensayo", futhi amafreyimu ensimbi ama-behemoth akudala kungenzeka abe kanje.Ukunyathela i-pedal nge-bottomless white fluff kuwumsebenzi ononya.Kodwa izikhathi zishintshile.Imikhiqizo efana ne-Salsa, Fatback, Specialized, Trek kanye ne-Rocky Mountain iyaqhubeka nokuthuthuka ngezakhiwo ezilula kanye namathayi anwebekayo ukuze ibhekane nezimo ezimbi kakhulu, Nezingxenye ezijwayelekile ezifana ne-dropper seatpost.
NgoJanuwari, iRad Power Bikes yethula iRadRadover kagesi entsha.NgoSepthemba, iREI Co-Op Cycles yethule ibhayisikili layo lokuqala elinamafutha, uhlaka lwe-aluminium oluqinile olunamasondo angu-26-intshi.Namuhla, isisindo esiphezulu esiphezulu silula kunamabhayisikili amaningi asezintabeni.Uhlaka lwe-Salsa Beargrease Carbon XO1 lwango-2021 lune-rim nesisindo senduku esingamaphawundi angama-27.
Bengilokhu ngigibele i-Salsa Beargrease Carbon SLX ka-2021 kusukela kwaqala iqhwa enyakatho ye-Minnesota ngo-Okthoba 15.Ibhayisikili elifanayo ne-XO1 Eagle, kodwa elinokuqukethwe kwekhabhoni encane, futhi ukuphela kwesistimu yokudlulisela kuphansi kancane.Phakathi kwamamodeli amabhayisikili anamafutha amathathu eSalsa (i-Beargrease, i-Mukluk ne-Blackborow), i-Beargrease yakhelwe ukuthi ibe nekhono lokuhamba ngokushesha, ngenxa yokuma kwayo okuqhubekayo, ekwazi ukuphatha osayizi abaningi bamarimu nobubanzi bamathayi ngaphansi kwezimo ezihlukene zomjaho Amakhono nezinsiza eziningi iphuzu. khipha izinto zokusebenza ezengeziwe, ukudla kanye nezingxenye ukuze uphonsele inselelo imiqhudelwano yamabanga amade, njenge-Arrowhead 135 eyinselele.

Nakuba i-Arrowhead 135 izophuma maduze kukhebhu yami eyaziwayo, i-carbon black Beargrease isewuhambo olusabelayo ukusuka odakeni naseqhweni lenkathi exubile ukuya emzileni wokushayela wempushana oyimpushana.Leli bhayisikili linamasondo angu-27.5 inch namasondo angu-3.8 inch ububanzi, namarimu afinyelela ku-80 mm, okwenza lisebenze kahle ezindleleni ezihlanzekile neziyisicaba.Kodwa futhi ikwazi ukusebenzisa amasondo angu-26 inch kumarimu angu-100mm futhi ifakwe amathayi afinyelela ku-4.6 inch ububanzi ukuze intante eqhweni elibi.Ingashintshwa ibe amathayi angu-29 intshi futhi isebenzise amathayi angu-2 kuya ku-3-intshi kumarimu angu-50mm ngohambo lonyaka wonke.Uma ufuna ukwengeza ukumiswa okungaphambili ukuze kuthambise amabhampa, ifreyimu iyahambisana nemfoloko yangaphambili futhi ine-stroke enkulu engu-100 mm.
Lapho ngiqala ukuhlola i-Beargrease enyakatho yeMinnesota, izinga lokushisa lalingama-degree angu-34 futhi umkhondo wawuyingxube yodaka neqhwa.Njengoba sonke sazi, umuzwa omubi kakhulu otholwa abantu abahlangabezana nalesi simo ukuthi ungafakazela ukuthi ukhiye ikhola yakho lapho ibhayisikili liphuma ngaphansi kwakho eqhweni futhi ubuso bakho buthinteke phansi.Futhi badinga imithungo.Ngenhlanhla lokho akuzange kwenzeke.I-Beargrease izizwa izinzile, ishesha futhi iphephile, ngisho noma amathayi engabethelwe engxenyeni ebandayo.I-agility yayo ilele ku-geometry yayo enamandla kakhulu: isikhungo esingaphambili eside (ibanga elivundlile ukusuka maphakathi kubakaki abaphansi kuya e-asili yangaphambili), induku emfushane, ibha ebanzi kanye neketango elingu-440 mm, okuyenza izwakale njengebhayisikili elingaphandle komgwaqo.
Naphezu kokugibela isitshulu esibandayo esinodaka sesizini yehlombe laseMinnesota ezinsukwini ezimbalwa ezizayo, isitimela saseBelgrade sikaShimano 1×12 SLX kanye namabhuleki e-Sram Guide T asasebenza kahle.Ngokungafani nebhayisikili lami elinamafutha ensimbi, i-Beargrease ayizange iguqe idolo lami.Lena inkinga evamile ngamabhayisikili anamafutha ngenxa yesisindo sawo kanye ne-Q factor ebanzi (phakathi kwamaphoyinti okuxhumana okunyathela engalweni ye-crank lapho kulinganiswa ngokuhambisana naphansi) Ibanga ukusuka ku-eksisi yabakaki).I-Salsa yehlisa ngamabomu i-Q factor ye-crank ukukhawulela ukucindezela kwamadolo, kodwa uhlaka lwe-carbon fiber engasindi nalo luyasiza.Kwesinye isikhathi, ekugibeleni kwami, i- dropper seatpost izongisiza.Yize ibhayisikili lihambisana nendawo yokuhlala engu-30.9mm, aliyona ingxenye yesakhiwo.
Ezimotweni zomjaho noma uhambo olude, azikho ukushoda kwezindawo zokugcina impahla.Kuzo zombili izinhlangothi zemfoloko ye-Kingpin yebhayisikili, kukhona amakheji amabhodlela amaphakethe amathathu noma i-Salsa brand “Anything Cage”, engasetshenziswa ukulayisha noma yiziphi ezinye izisetshenziswa ezingasindi ozidingayo.Ohlakeni, kukhona amakheji amabhodlela amabili ngaphakathi kukanxantathu, i-accessory rack rack ohlangothini olungezansi lweshubhu eliphansi, kanye nendawo yokubeka ishubhu ephezulu ekwazi ukumumatha ikhompuyutha yebhayisikili kanye nesikhwama seshubhu esiphezulu.
Kusekwindla, okusho ukuthi iqhwa elinzima alikakaqali ukundiza.Kodwa uBeargrease wanginika isizathu esanele, ngilangazelela ubusika kanye nentambo elungiswe kahle.
