Hate to say this but it’s the worst cable I’ve used yet
Hello @dudemanmanguy1957, let’s fix this for you! The issue you're experiencing may be due to using the wrong cable for your particular application.

Who made this animation? Was it done in Cinema4D? Any chance I could pay you to teach me?
I love it , can you teach the automotive industry to put there part number and business name on the parts they produce ? Instead of a bunch of worthless numbers that only mean something to them ? And teach them that stickers are for children , not for model # , or any other pertanent information that should be gouged into every single part manufactured

Also wenn dieses Bike nicht so abartig hässlich wäre und ich dafür keine 1200€ ausgeben müsste nur um so ein Stück Plastik zu fahren wäre das ne Option👍😂
92% Plastik wovon wieder 50% recycle Plastik sein soll (also 46%) Wie man dann auf so einen immensen OVP Preis kommt ist mir schleierhaft. Da fahr ich doch lieber Oldtimer klassisch als Verbrenner 😁😎
Does this create micro plastic particles? How does it lubricate like that?
Awesome! Adorable video🎉
