    Flat pedal (no-pins) recommondations?

    Check out Oddessy Twisted PC pedals. BMX riders hate shin bites as much as anyone. The Twisted PC pedals are much friendlier to your shins, are very high quality and come in colors should you want something different.

    New Jersey Would Be Foolish To Require E-Bike Insurance & Registration

    In my state, Virginia, DMV can't even keep up with illegal cars! No insurance, expired state inspections and even way expired tags? Virginia will welcome you on our roads! This started because some politician telling the police they can't pull a car for a expired plate tag or outdated state...

    Annoying phone calls!

    Interesting BUT I think it's just another distraction/deflection from what he's not doing. I'll see it to believe it.

    Annoying phone calls!

    Those beach front mansions will get swept away by the ocean during the next big hurricane. Then the property owners will cry to the state for assistance to rebuild.

    Annoying phone calls!

    I must get at least 2 phone calls a day from people asking if I'm interested in selling my home. I'm a few years from it being paid off, have no children to inherit such a mansion and no one I like enough to will it to. So on to the phone calls. I have this guy call and he says he's trying to...

    getting a regular bike after my battery fails?

    My wife still has her Electra Ed Roth Rat Rod chopper bicycle. It's basically a fancy Townie with a Nexus 3 speed. I took it to the store yesterday and I found myself wondering why the PAS wasn't kicking in! I doesn't have a motor! Once I remembered what I was on I actually enjoyed riding it...

    Physical media, do NOT buy from Merchbar.

    Since discovering and appreciating Steely Dan I decided to order some of their CD's. I stumbled across Merchbar online and decided to order 5 CD's back in September. All CD's showed in-stock, yet to this day my email invoice shows "Processing". It was later discovered that this site is run by a...

    Finding ebikes a home.

    The Swing King Elite beach cruiser and the JackRabbit OG both went to the local CHKD thrift store. I hope the Swing King finds a good home, I could care less about the JackRabbit. That JackRabbit was the worst quality ebike I've ever seen and had to deal with. Still debating the right home for...

    Anyone prefer a fixed single-speed ebike?

    I have a single speed RadRunner 2. It works great for what I purchased it for, general local use. I keep the PAS on 2 because anything over that I'll just ghost pedal. I can get some exercise in PAS 2 as well. I don't have the screen so I have no idea how fast I'm going in PAS 2 but I suspect...

    Ebike scam video

    I love the Berm Peak videos. This scam is just insane and I'm glad it being pursued and hopefully punished. Seth said "Chomos", something I never thought I'd ever hear him say!

    Weird Specialized discovery....

    Still on the hunt. So far..... Momentum Cito +. Would love to see one in person but no local dealer. Not a fan of the motion first throttle. Trek Fetch is a pass because of the weird passenger weight distribution. I was willing to forgo the "T" word. Xtracycle Hopper is nice but on the slower...

    Finding ebikes a home.

    Finding the bikes a home got even better. This purge is part of getting a "One and done." ebike. So how did it get better? We put my wife's little pick-up in the shop right before the holidays. Got it back and haven't been able to drive it. It has a horrible oil leak now! The shop is closed till...

    Finding ebikes a home.

    Neither ebike is over 2 years old max. The batteries have been cycled, just not all the time. Maybe once every 2 months. Anyways, pics!

    Finding ebikes a home.

    Lets say you cleaned the garage today (It's 65 degrees today!) and you have a JackRabbit OG and a RadRunner 2 that just get in the way. They haven't been ridden in awhile but are both in good shape. Thrift stores here don't take ebike donations and my local ebike shop doesn't do consignments on...

    Tire Liners

    Growing up we always had a bunch of Pachinko machines in the house. Weird as I never learned how they came about. The little steel balls have Japanese writing on them for whatever game room they came from. My dumb friend grabbed a bunch of them for sling shot ammo. But how many people have...
