    Cycling Classic Helmet Visor Brim

    Helmet crowns are still available,.. There's a few versions to pick from,.. Flying helmets have been around for forever,.. I'm thinking about getting a pet Golden Eagle? They can fly away with an 80 pound deer 🦌!!! Then again, It's not strong enough to lift me, and it would...

    Charging Procedure

    Well that's a good excuse for me to wait to buy a ZEN e-bike. Sounds like they have some bugs to iron out. Then again, I remember saying that I didn't want a ZEN e-bike because there would be nothing for me fix or upgrade. Maybe I'll buy one now and spend the winter fixing it? But would I...

    Legal? Hybrid ebike.

    The EU1000I puts out 900 Watts continuous, and that's over the 500 Watt maximum in Canada, so I will need to couple it with this MeanWell LED Driver, with its maximum 480 Watt output,.. https://www.digikey.ca/en/products/detail/mean-well-usa-inc/HLG-480H-54AB/11482440

    Legal? Hybrid ebike.

    I'm not going to use my Flux capacitor because I need to keep my hybrid e-bike within the regulations. 😂

    Charging Procedure

    My guess is that it doesn't matter so it doesn't need to be mentioned in the manual? Then again the Zen e-bikes do come with a very strange shifter and no documentation on how to operate it?? 😂

    Legal? Hybrid ebike.

    In Canada, a gas powered bicycle is still legally a bicycle if the engine is less than 50cc. The Honda EU1000I generator has a 49.4cc, quiet, clean burning, fuel efficient 4-stoke engine. It weighs almost the same as my two batteries at 28.7 pounds. The generator is 9.5" wide, so my...

    Legal? Hybrid ebike.

    I Like It !! I designed my own hybrid using my old e-bike. 😂

    Cycling Classic Helmet Visor Brim

    I just bought a new sun visor for my helmet. My helmet has one, but it's kinda useless,.. I would hesitate from wearing a Sombrero, not only cuz I'd look like a dork, but because a big gust of wind might give me whiplash and an updraft might rip my head clean off. 😂 If you're going to...

    Should I Buy A Pedal Wrench?

    I had a CCM Pursuit 10 when I was 12 years old. A ten speed like this,.. Shortly after I got it, the right pedal partly unthreaded and started to wobble. By the time I noticed, the pedal was cross-threaded and I couldn't thread it back in. I used a hammer to keep smacking the pedal straight...

    Zen Photon Ultra - limited version (Bafang Ultra, Rohloff Speed hub, Gates belt drive)

    Wait a minute,.. That's not a left hand shifter on the right side. That's a right hand shifter installed so that you shift using your left hand. 😂 That's seems pretty tricky to operate. 😂 My throttle is similar but I adjust my throttle and hold on with the same hand,..

    Zen Photon Ultra - limited version (Bafang Ultra, Rohloff Speed hub, Gates belt drive)

    Ha! my old e-bike has a right hand shifter on the left side. 😂

    Charging Procedure

    I decided to do one final spark test using my UL listed Das-Kit charger. (I named that battery Sparky 😂) I'm supposed to plug the battery in first as per the instructions with my Das-Kit ebike but this battery doesn't like to be connected that way and YELLS at me when I do so. 😂 The...

    Charging Procedure

    I knew of a guy that owned a Lamborghini. He lived at home with his parents and spent every penny he had to pay for the car. He never could the afford insurance and never once drove the car. Another guy that owned a Harley but never had a license to ride it. He spent all his free time polishing...

    Charging Procedure

    I'm never joining that cult. 😂 If I ever had a Specialized ebike, I'd remove the ♥ lungs, and 🧠 and install non-proprietary components.

    Charging Procedure

    I managed to take some close up pictures of my charge port on my battery. The pitting on the contact terminal is from metal that got vaporized. I had Huge Sparks about 6 times when I forgot to plug the charger in first.

    Charging Procedure

    It depends on the BMS and charger combination. I have three batteries, and with one of them, if I connect the battery to the charger before the charger is plugged in, I get One HELL Of A Crack/Spark that scares the beJesus outta me. The other two batteries are fine to be connected that way...

    Touch up paint

    I removed my gas cap cover from my car and took it into Canadians Tire looking for a touch up paint that was the right color, but unfortunately, there was no exact match for my car. I managed to find nail polish at the dollar store that was an exact match. The only problem I had with it was...

    Touch up paint

    I glued velcro straps to my frame to help hold down the battery. I peeled them off to readjust them and they took all the paint off. 😂 Luckily I don't care. I'm 100% function over form. The only reason that I used to care (with my car, motorcycle or bicycles) was because the bare metal...

    New Vado SL Front Wheel Will Not Turn

    😂 I did the same thing with muck,.. I had to remove the fender brackets to get enough clearance to scrape the muck out with a stick. 😂
