The Rivendell Rage Reader: A thread for the pure joy of hating on Grant P

Gotta plug it in. It’s a delightful throwback to my favorite age of technology.

You’re expected to transfer to a computer using a USB cable. The little SD card is under a door held in place with a tiny screw though, so if your phone will mount an SD card reader and browse the files then you can skip the computer step. I’ve never tried that though, plugging in to the laptop works just fine for me.

What does it use for a battery?

It charges through the same usb port.

so wait, this is a multi use camera just kinda shitty and with no screen on the back?

Yeah. It’s like 30 bucks. Cheap plastic, no screen and it’s amazing. My kid is an arteeeest!

I was at riv for unrelated reasons a week and half ago and rode that purple one with the 2x1 setup around the building. Totally cromulent bicycle.

i just love that his mad scientist experiment is a tame version of what growtac is doing with multiple speeds

I always said if they brought back the Quickbeam, I’d buy one…but I guess this is as close as we’ll get. Still wish it had cantis, though.
