None of my friends seem to care so I assume the average person finds it uninteresting

And they would be right this not merely interesting. This is fascinating ;)

So post your friends here. They're uninteresting!

The reason we all come to Lemmy it seems, people in our lives sometimes just don't give a shiiiit about some of our stuff ಥ_ಥ

No one in my life thinks CRTs are cool. They're asking why I'd want those big junkers.

Because I like electron beams shooting at my face thats why!

The trick is to find it interesting, but to be dull. Some people here aren't doing that right.

Maybe you should decorate the camo net with some blinking Christmas lights. That way, it would be easier to find the bike later.

I thought this was a cross view image at first and my eyes were very unhappy.

27

I tried it for shits and giggles and I couldn’t cross my eyes enough, they were very unhappy as described

Bahaha, now you've revealed your hiding spot! If I see that tree, I'll know that there's a free camo net under it!

But you don't know the tree I'm under of watching you.

This is almost like a raincoat fabric or similar. I doubt it absorbs any water. It weighs 350g dry.

This is a great idea for bikepacking! Sometimes it's tough to find a legit camping spot and you have to stealth it, think I'll order one

11

That looks really really good. I feel like you'd have to stumble over it to see it if you weren't looking.

8

I just want to get one and cover myself with it, so I can be invisible everywhere I walk.

Very cool. Are there no good bike communities yet? Grow niche communities, grow!

6

There are. I guess I just didn't think this relates to bikes really. It just happened to be a bike I was stashing.

Can we see it not in action? I'm curious as to what it looks like in front of a wall or something.

5

Woah, thanks for posting this. I'm a bit embarrassed to admit it, but in all the pictures I couldn't tell which is which, haha. So it's good to know what it looks like.

If I was walking through the woods and saw a bike standing against a tree I'd think, "Hey, that's someone's bike."

If I was walking through the woods and stumbled across a bike on the ground under a bunch of leaves, I'd think, "Hey, someone must have abandoned this bike. Free bike!"

Is offloading what those fat tyres are for? I've never managed to ask anyone.

3

The big tires are basically like snowshoes. With a normal mountain bike you can't really ride in snow except on hard compacted trails, but with fat tires you can - up to a point. They help on mud and sand too, but honestly they're more of a hindrance than an advantage the rest of the year.

Still, it makes riding feel like driving a monster truck. You can go pretty much anywhere and you have infinite grip.

Why not just hide it up in a tree? Cheaper and people don't usually look very high up.

"Nothing in the world is worth having or worth doing unless it means effort, pain, difficulty… I have never in my life envied a human being who led an easy life."

Sure, but I mean it's going to be very hard hoisting the bike up (I don't even know how you'd do it, alone and in a reasonable amount of time) and it will be more visible as a consequence. Nothing against hard work in general (or you!), I think it's just a bad idea
