Can't wait for the next for next episode of Knowledge Fight to cover this!
There's an official conspracy theory?
I'm more interested as to why you have a cottered crank from a bicycle on your counter. It looks like it has been cusomized into a tool with a little blacksmith work. What's it do?
If you find Alex and Info Wars interesting check out the podcast "Knowledge Fight". They take deep entertaining dives into the disturbing world of Mr. Jones...
Old racist trope: The Jews run the world through the banking system and use black people as muscle to mess with poor downtrodden whitey.
Old fashioned but the same thinking exists today.
"The globalists are using the open border to implement the new world order by sneaking an army of illegals in to the US to destroy our country from within."
Old racist dogs learn no new tricks.
Low end bikes like that just don't have much value used. They are generally considered disposable. Still if it is in good ridable shape you might get $50. Some times you cant give them away... Used helmets are iffy to the buyer. You never can be certain they are in good safe condition, even if they look nice. A nice camelback might be worth more than the bike and helmet!
Nice little rabbit hole to crawl down!
I've never seen an adjustable wrench that was thin enough to do many of those jobs. Maybe you could grind a standard one thin enough. A little tricky.
Thanks! You do have to be careful not to overload those. I have a heavy duty hitch mount on my truck rated for 500lbs. Plenty for this stripped down race bike.

This is my old Yamaha FZR400 with a 600 engine. I need to do some maintenance on it to get out on the track in a couple weeks.
