Does your (her) deraileur have a clutch? If so, engaging the clutch may help.

I'm a fan of the cafe lock (which I'd never heard of before getting my Gazelle). It's always there, ready for an unplanned stop and as a supplement to a more substantial lock. It's immediately obvious if you try to move the bike with the lock still engaged (which I've done numerous times), there...

I carry a 2nd PowerTube 500 when I want to go for a long fast ride. It's in a pannier, I don't notice the weight/balance at all.

I have an E-Mate (above) on my Gazelle. It's great for carrying the 2nd battery. It's not very big, so it may/may not serve your purpose depending on how much "other things" you want to carry.

If the battery is the same as my Ultimate T10+ (2022 model), you can use the battery without the cover. I got one of those neoprene covers to use while my cover was on back order, but the bike would've worked just fine without a cover.

Impressive! Thanks for sharing. It's a bit above my handy-person pay grade, so still hoping for some other ideas.

I normally ride off from home, but once in a while I'd like to haul my bike to a different location to ride. For reasons, I don't want to buy a rack. The bike weighs 50 some pounds, so it's liftable, but awkward. I'm concerned that brute-forcing it into the back I would end up damaging...

Unlike so many surveys, this one seems like it may generate useful info for the researchers

What is the "Smart System"? I spent a few minutes poking around, but I'm still unclear on what it is. I've been over the moon with my '22 Gazelle Ultimate T10+, seems like some slight tweaks will only improve things.

Stuart - this is a bit of a hijack, but a well-intended one. I am a fellow oldster. Started noticing that the leg swing over my big ol' Gazelle was getting harder. I already was doing yoga, but have been spending a bit more time on that and getting a bit deeper into the lunges and it has made a...

Thank you, your post is very informative. I've looked at this issue for a while, although not to the depth that you have. I've seen the posts about blinking decreasing the driver's ability to judge distance, but always wondered whether the increased conspicuity (yes, great word!) outweighs the...

Another happy Cygolite user here.

Mine was on back order for a couple of months. Came in just the other day. Hopefully yours is coming soon.

I wanted an extra battery for occasional long rides, and did not want to carry the extra battery around all the time since it is usually unnecessary. I got a second battery, which I carry in a Orlieb E-Mate pannier. Works great.

Mikes Bikes (a small Northern California chain) has Stromer batteries on a 50% off sale. No affiliation, I just saw the sale and though it might be good info for somebody here. https://mikesbikes.com/collections/clearance-and-sale-accessories/products/stromer-battery
