How about going to your LBS and trying a pedal assist bike? Try riding it in Turbo mode, I think you’ll find that very easy to pedal, even when you are spent and sore.

Another vote for going to several LBS and test riding all the e-bikes they have there. You and your wife should try a Specialized Vado. It’s not a fat tired bike, but I think you will like it. It’s a good all-around e-bike. Kinda lightweight, easy to maneuver and good for the asphalt and...

Who’s paying to swap all the parts over to the new frame? The owner, or Cannondale? Id be cautious of buying a Mtb or Emtb with a carbon frame. I drop and fall with aluminum framed Levo all the time. I’d be freaked out if it was a carbon frame.

Buy some new pads, that way you can compare the old ones to the new ones. They are easy to replace. Get the good ones, they last a lot longer.

That looks like the bombdiggity Jeremy, glad you had a good time. Sorry we didn’t get to meet up.

Hey Jeremy, I’ve been through Death Valley after a storm like this. All the low lying roads get washed away. In the nearby town of Lone Pine, they are expecting 2” of rain tomorrow. All that has to go somewhere, probably thru Death Valley. It was the right call to cancel the event.

The organizers just cancelled the ride due to heavy rain and possible flash flooding. Some friends and I were signed up and looking forward to it. Oh well

Ive actually thought about that! She brings so many damn shoes.

My Creo will be on a rack on the back of my SUV, so it will be out of the direct blast of rain and air. I have the option of putting it in the cargo area if I can get my wife to use a small suitcase.

We are riding in the Death Valley Half Century next weekend and rain is forecast at my house and in Death Valley. Will the Creo be okay on the bike rack and riding it in the rain? It’s about 5 hours to get to Death Valley and about 4 hours for the actual ride. Ive rinsed the bike gently with...

The Milwaukee is very convenient because you set the pressure that you want, start it and walk away. It shuts off when it reaches the psi that you chose. This is especially convenient for car tires that will take a couple minutes to air up.

Yes I did, it works for me. Just do a Google search for it, I’m sure it will come up.

I just bought this cordless air compressor. It would be great for airing up bicycle tires at home. It’s on sale at Home Depot for $199. https://www.homedepot.com/p/Milwaukee-M18-18-Volt-Lithium-Ion-Cordless-Inflator-with-2-5-0Ah-Batteries-and-Charger-2848-20-48-59-1852B/326514175 Ive been...

Okay thank you. I was concerned about that after reading your post.

We’re headed to Death Valley for the 1/2 Century on November 14, 15 and 16. Looking forward to it. Theres about 150 riders signed up so far.
