    Carbon flat bar - Tesoro Vado Skitch?

    Cannondale is a solid value choice. If it fits you well and has better spec for the price, it’s usually the best pick. Trek is more comfort and support focused, Specialized is more refined, and Giant is often cheapest for similar parts. Fit matters more than brand.

    Bike wont turn on again, Ive started stripping wires

    On a 2020 Turbo Levo, that brown wire is part of the CAN/communication line on that specific harness version. If it’s broken and you have no continuity, that can absolutely cause the bike to shut down and not power back on. Even if other Levo setups use fewer visible wires, your system still...

    Mid drive motor opinion clearance bike

    For your use case, it’s a solid commuter bike but not really a trail bike. The 36V 350W mid-drive is fine for short city rides and light hills, but it’s on the weak side for off-road or rough trails, especially with basic suspension. Mid-drives are good in general, but at this power level it...

    Wire Organizing- What Do You Use?

    For cleaner wiring, the best alternative to zip ties is Velcro cable sleeves which are reusable and easy to adjust. You can find them by searching hook and loop cable wrap in different sizes. For a more permanent and professional finish, braided PET sleeving or Tesa cloth harness tape works very...

    Those claims are inaccurate or oversimplified. Veterinary and human medical schools both have very high and competitive entry standards, depending on the country and program.

    Wanted: light ebike with throttle

    The issue is that Shopify can’t map multiple Xero line items in one step. You need to loop each item, match SKU → variant ID individually, then send the full list into the draft order step.

    A stunning lecture on mushrooms as medicine, by Paul Stamets

    Nice find. Chicken of the Woods is a good beginner edible if correctly identified and it sounds like you were careful with it. It’s common to check the host tree since that can affect safety and taste. Also normal that when you went back later they were gone wild mushrooms are often picked...

    Help deciding when to switch to an ebike?

    Most riders switch to an e-bike when long or hilly rides start leaving them wiped out or recovery takes too long. Many wish they had tried it earlier, as it lets you ride longer and more often without fatigue. With adjustable assistance, you can still push yourself, so you can maintain or even...

    17,000km in and thinking about ROI

    At 17,000 km, your motor is mid-life; a replacement out of warranty typically costs NZ$1,500–2,800, and many riders consider this still economical compared to buying a new e-bike. Cost per km of $1–2 is normal, and motor failures usually occur between 15,000–30,000 km depending on use and care.

    I need a battery and a charger

    You will need a replacement battery that matches your Easy Motion e‑bike’s original voltage (usually 36 V or 48 V) and connector. Since the old battery likely lost capacity from sitting uncharged, getting a new lithium-ion pack or a rebuild with modern cells is recommended. Make sure to also get...

    Yes, go with the Faireach HD 800D waterproof cover. It meets your size needs, has a heavier fabric than the others you found, and should hold up much better on the road. Adding extra straps or a net to secure it is a good idea for highway use.

    Cannabis, how is it legalized?

    In U.S. states where cannabis is legal, it’s mostly a normal retail experience rather than anything backstreet. You buy it from licensed shops called dispensaries, which are clean, regulated stores where you show ID and must be over 21. There’s usually a menu with lots of choice, different...

    Shimano Linkglide for e bikes.

    The Shimano Linkglide upgrade provides more durability with steel cogs and a longer-lasting chain, a wider gear range with the 36t→38t chainring, and easier climbing with the 11-52 setup. Shifting under load may take some practice, but the improved shifter grips and two upshifts make control...
