Some good tips here on gear shifting. After my first 75 miles On my Charger 3, I agree that there is a learning spot on matching cadence to mode. I find that using 10-11 with Eco on little or low grade with a quick cadence can really eat up terrain. I really enjoy that very smooth wheel turn...

I have two Charger3 Mixte attached. Figured out that we had to take the long arm off before attaching the first bike on the inside. Once you figure out the best location for each arm, the pedals and the tires (our bikes go opposite end) take a photo of the setup so when the next couple of times...

FYI I have a Charger3 Mixte with the dual 1125W and I was told the down tube is 625 and the 500W was on the rear rack. It could be the other way around, but that’s not how it was sold to me. And you must order both at the same time. I hope the OP loves his Charger. I hope to get mine and my...

Agree. There are component upgrades still possible but those will come if necessary for the kind of riding we end up doing. Of course could get a 2021 Delite Mountain.

We went Rohloff. We want to do some touring and perhaps because I have a novice brain, I didn’t want to deal with the higher risk of maintenance while on the touring rode, plus my wife really like the simplicity of gear shifting and the now 85Nm of torque certainly helped too. Now to decide if...

Thanks for sharing the info? Can you tell me how long you waited for the bike? Thanks much.

Is that Oak Harbor Washington? I’m in Kitsap and use to own on cabin in the San Juan’s. Waiting on my eBike and hope to ride up north including Whitney which I’ve been on many times with a car but not a bike. Another nice day here. Enjoy.

I’ll have to look into the reprogramming. I would swear on whatever book they’d like, that I wouldn’t bike faster than 32km and mean it!

Yes. Agree. I’d like to take my bike 28mph up to Canada, be a good visitor and obey the speed laws etc. But I worry the border agents will see my bike on my car rack and say no go. Disappointment.

Yes. On the RM homepage scroll down and you’ll find a place to put the number. You’ll either get an expected shipping date range or a manufactured date range. Mine went back and forth for a bit but in last week it only gives me a date range of July 13-17. Which means to me it may be coming slow...

It is an 8 alphanumeric number RM gives the LBS on the order of the bike. At least my two are. Good luck.

Same here. It got updated to a sooner delivery date a week later, but sadly not any sooner update on delivery.

How deep was the creek? Looks nice. We have to Charger3s arriving in a few weeks. Would like to ride in the Valley over a few days and spend the nights at some local hotels.

Kind of what I’ve been looking at. I’ve seen that bag. I would take A trunk bag that can be mounted on the rack. I’ve seen a few that might work but hesitant to buy as I don’t have the measurements for the RM stock front rack. Anybody want to sure them? Too, the diameter of the rack tubes (sorry...

Very nice. If you can, how is it attached? And, what are the bag dimensions? Much thanks.
