Yep, we lube it up because it was out of EV power

  Sketchy term of yours this '... we lube it up ....'

I'd say, you should all complete Medical exam before the lube ... I mean, before the electrical (EV) purchase ...  

  I've just read .. LOL .. our Kyrghistany ... LOL .. discussion, I forgot about.

I'm like: "Who wrote that?" while reading my own comment ...

  I think, it's right time to change my email address to "laughing@myself.com" ...

If you don't have much budget, you can consider Wulling. I am using it and find it suitable for daily use

Yer Chinese 'Bradley' has a single 'l'. I ain't sure, how you didn't spot that ...

Thanks, butT ... I'm a walker, spending much of my dough into handmade, real-leather shoes.

Last purchase I've made was Lucchese's Liam and these are top-quality handmade boots. I was still in China, year 2016/17.

Here is the only image I could find on the web:

No repairs since inception in mid-2017, with exception of new shoe laces purchase, which was PIA, 'cause 175 cm or so laces' length.

You don't want to know how I got brand new 'Lucchese's Liam' "shoe laces" ...   ... for the 5th of the original lace-pair price.  

I went to a 'Home Depot' kind-of-store in my city and purchased 4m of a similar colour and all-the-same-looking rope ...  

As the first rope laces look so good, I quickly made additional two spare rope lace-pairs ...

I know, that is a definition of a cheapo, butT .. I tell you more ...

You can buy approx. 10 brand new car tyres for the price of a pair of these boots ... add some +20% for the import-custom fee charge ...

I like the look of the boots, very comfy during the walk, too. Only PIA is to lace them up before ready-to-move ... I require a chair for that 'procedure'.

As per 'Eppur si muove',  ( ) I'll walk with this boots for the next 25-years ... I really wanted to say, I ain't sure what will end first, the World or my many-spare shoe laces ...
