    Will Boomerang V2 Cyclo Trac ever come back? It looked promising.

    I'm on month 9 of waiting. I go to the web site for a laugh now and then so I can see the same 'Estimated ship date: 2 - 4 weeks' that's been there since the beginning. I'm in for $49 so I'll play the stupid waiting game

    eMTB Options For 2024

    I've never ridden a Bosch powered eMTB but what does he mean, or better yet, who knows what is the cause of the sound when the reviewer states this: 'Though like all new Bosch-motorised mountain bikes we have experienced, there was the constant knocking sound when coasting over rough surfaces...

    BMC Alpenchallenge AMP E-bikes

    The OMM rack will come with a new thru axle which supports the rack and it will come with (Pucks) clamps that attach to either seat stay. Your mudguard/fenders stay as is

    BMC Alpenchallenge AMP E-bikes

    Have you looked at Old Man Mountain Racks? They are in the States but ship overseas. They make rear axle supported racks (70lbs/32 kg capacity) that will custom fit your bike.

    Redshift ShockStop seatpost and stem installed

    Regardless of the model the suspension travel is up 20mm for drop bars and 10mm for flat bars. Different elastomers are there for feel only, soft to firm.

    Redshift ShockStop seatpost and stem installed

    I have the Shock Stop stem on my BMC Alpenchallenge Amp and love it. I went with the 6 degree model.

    So Sonders Is Advertising On Popular Websites ... BUT

    Your point doesn’t stand at all. What is the reach? Do you even know? Of course you don’t. Do you think they made a bike with the geometry to fit an Orangutan?

    They joked during the reveal about their physical size (5'-8" or less). These bikes aren't supersized.

    So Sonders Is Advertising On Popular Websites ... BUT

    On Monday the 31st they had an unveiling of all three bikes.....actual bikes, no renderings. They are real. Founder also mentioned that many people complained that the specs were not specified earlier and he said he usually doesn’t do it because the components used are always evolving during...

    BMC Alpenchallenge AMP E-bikes

    Obviously no change in top speed but I have an eMTB with the Brose S motor with 90 Nm torque so well aware of difference in how each feels. Quite obvious between the two despite the 20 lbs more my eMTB weighs than the BMC, but with the BMC weighing in at 34 lbs the 6100 motor is more than...

    eMTB Options For 2024

    Not sure where your budget is for an acoustic mtb but Commencal has this Supreme DH 29 in medium in stock for $3500. Perfect for you since you said the wife would drive your butt to the top of wherever you start from and gravity would then be your friend. And an inspirational photo 😁

    Fenix 5 Plus. I use it with the Garmin Connect phone app and it covers all the bases for me. My photo did prompt me to give it a cleaning 😁 I installed the Speedbox 1.0 pretty much from the get go. I can and do cruise at 25 mph easily on the flats. Ride on!

    eMTB Options For 2024

    @Stefan Mikes take a look at the Maxxis Chronicle if you can still find them in 27.5". Versatile tire and they roll well and are surprisingly quiet and reviews bear that out. I put a 27.5"x 3" pair on a new set of 40 mm rims and they are noticeably quieter than my Schwalbe Nobby Nics.

    BMC Alpenchallenge AMP E-bikes

    Ended up going with the 90 mm size since that gave me the slight elbow bend I wanted and just tad less forward position. It works as advertised and I get now why the reviews I read were pretty glowing. This bike is a blast to ride and meant to be able to be ridden at 20+ mph.

    Quad Lock Phone Mount?

    I have mounts on all three of my E-Bikes and have a car mount. It’s super secure without question. I had reservations about the case at first ( I have an iPhone X) but it was unfounded. It’s not the thinnest case out there, but also not super thick either. I was sold when I was told it worked...

    Anyone have experienced with Rola Convoy Modular Bike Carrier?

    I don’t have your bike and I just looked and saw that it has fenders. What’s great about this rack is you can set it so that that the anchor arm clamps to the top tube of your RadRover5.
