    Battery for headlight and turn signals, dash cam

    lastly i watched this video to also understand relays and flashers. This was very easy to follow for me and he showed how to wire it the "wrong" way without fuses and explains why its bad.

    Shifting Barrel Adjuster Stuck - replace shifter needed?

    i just got the trigger shifter in but i don't see anyway to easily take off my existing brake arm and cable from the current shifter and use it with my new shifter, does that mean i need to buy a new brake arm? i cant find any documentation or any brakes that seem to go with the microshift n757...

    Battery for headlight and turn signals, dash cam

    Also the main goal of all this is to get wired turn signals, that is basically the main reason. I just want to communicate with drivers without taking my hand off the bar and just using my thumb to control the turn signals

    Shifting Barrel Adjuster Stuck - replace shifter needed?

    That is exactly the one i use on that bike and my other bike too, the photos i shared are just a bit old.

    Battery for headlight and turn signals, dash cam

    thanks for the suggestions on fuses, i will talk to my 2 more experienced people who will be helping me and see what they say. As for the cable length, one says 27" so thats a bit small, would only reach about the midpoint of my frame. Not many places from mid-frame to the front that i could...

    Fixing up 2004 Electric Bike - Charger!

    I prefer swept back bars also. That isn't the right part. That converts it to a threadless stem. This is an extender, but I would just buy a new longer stem. Thanks for linking the gooseneck, i will be installing it this weekend and replacing all the cables and housing, along with replacing...

    Shifting Barrel Adjuster Stuck - replace shifter needed?

    thanks, ordered the 4mm housing cable from jagwire and just found the Lucas Fishing Reel Oil. I believe i already have the housing cutter. Looks like i can install a longer gooseneck too, so i will probably need to buy longer housing cable for the brakes.

    I have a spot that i have in mind that is under the seat, where the bike has a mount for the rear light. Early on i was playing with different carry configurations and tried out strapping the field box to that area under the seat and sitting on the plate that secures the light, and with the...
