    My brother wants a Dost mid motor

    This is the brother I mentioned above. I was going to buy an eBike to keep in AZ for the winter and he and I have been in discussion about choices. Truthfully, my 700 is perfect. Not having any eBike experience is also probably a benefit. I don't know any better! The terrain in YUMA is flat...

    My brother wants a Dost mid motor

    Trying to convince my brother that the R1U LMT'D is a better bike than this: https://dostbikes.com/product/kope/ He's got the hots for a mid drive and I'm telling him that a rear hub is better because there's less strain on the drive train. Plus the LMT'D is $1000 less. I have to admit the...

    Handlebar realestate increased

    Not enuf space for all the gadgets on my 700. Bought most of the items from Ali Express. On the "handlebar extenders" I mounted the R1U controller, bottle cage and a bag.

    Front wheel noise. Caused by stupidity.

    Removed the front wheel to mount my 700 on a Harbor Freight motorcycle trailer for transport to Yuma. Reassembled for my first Yuma ride and the dreaded front wheel brake noise reappeared. I thought I had sufficiently tightened the quick disconnect. It was tight enuf to keep the wheel in...

    Rear tail light + Brake Light? Sounds good!

    Waiting for my AliExpress order . for this gadget to arrive. Paid $10 on Aliexpress, is $25 on Amazon. The thing has an accelerarometer (spelling?) that activates the stoplight. Sounds good if it works https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07DF8RTM4/ref=cm_sw_r_em_apa_i_InfJFbD572HG1

    LMT’D controller replacement pictures

    I bit the bullet and had my rear spokes tightened by a LBS.. I was OK WITH the fronts but the rears were too loose. Best $40 I've spent

    Bikeman, where are you?

    BM----You've been pretty quiet for a while. Is all good? Do you have everything dialed in? Is your bike good or bad?

    700 seat post.. not a quick release clamp?

    I removed the lever on the O.E. clamp, kept the barrel nut and concave washer and used the O.E. bolt which I tightened the seat with an allen wrench that came with my 700. A 38.5 was difficult to get. All's well. Thanks for commenting

    Front brake install for 700. The added washer insert

    There was a 2 "x 2" slip of paper that advised to insert a washer between the brake assembly and the frame. Which I did. When the LBS adjusted the front brake for rubbing, he removed the washer and told me I had assembled it incorrectly. I didn't question the decision because he got the rub...

    Battery tip ! To keep from slipping out of your hands.

    Battery tip. To keep from slipping out of your hands. Ever since I dropped my battery and had to buy a new case, I've gone anal on not doing it again. I bought a roll of "anti-slip" tape from Amazon for $8. https://www.amazon.com/.../ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o01... It works so well that...

    What kind of connector is used on a 700 charger ?

    I hate to admit it but I'm going to buy a Luna charger. I'm all caught up with the 80% charge mania. Anyone know what connector is used on a 700 charger?
