    1UpUSA Bike Rack

    Hey Power Me, First off, that's a nice looking bike!! I just did my first drive with my ST1 on the rack. It was successful, but I was nervous as a chicken in a fox-house. The roads out here in Southern California are absolutely atrocious. I'm sure Iraq has much nicer highways. And don't get...

    What kind of bell do you use?

    I had ordered this - http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00P26G8N0?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00 I then attempted to cancel the order, because I wanted to change to the Origin8, which is similar to the Crane Suza. Amazon was "unable" to cancel the order, which might turn out...

    What kind of bell do you use?

    The Loud Bicycle horn would be great for road traffic. Honking that on pedestrian pathways would probably get you chased by angry people :-P For those who travel in traffic a lot, I'd def consider this, and maybe a regular bike bell for the pedestrians.

    Are the Ergon PC2 pedals a significant upgrade?

    It never rains in Southern California ;-) :-P

    What kind of bell do you use?

    Lucky for me, I tend to me more on beach bike paths... I like the Orp, but in places where there are pedestrians around, I'd be afraid to use it because it might come off as too obnoxious. If worse comes to worse, I can just paint over the flowers on the black Crane Suzu, but I'm going to try...

    What kind of bell do you use?

    Damn, why did they put those stupid sunflowers on it?!!! :mad: I searched Google and saw a couple pics of the Crane Suzu in all black, but can't find it listed for sale anywhere. I also see a Mirrcycle bell that looks similar to this as well...

    Are the Ergon PC2 pedals a significant upgrade?

    Thanks Ravi. Rick, they had large available yesterday. They must have sold-out.

    What kind of bell do you use?

    The Spur seems good, but it's definitely not cheap. The Crane seems loudest of the bells, but it's also kinda big, and I'm not sure if I like the look of it on my modern-looking ST1.

    Are the Ergon PC2 pedals a significant upgrade?

    Hi Rick, I think this is the 2014 model, versus the 2015? Not sure if there is a big difference... here is the link: https://www.rei.com/product/891393/ergon-pc2-pedals-2014-overstock You can also enter OUT20 and get another 20% off this price. This price is about the same as Amazon, so no...

    What kind of bell do you use?

    Whoa, that Crane Bell sounds pretty good! Seems a little big though:

    What kind of bell do you use?

    From looking at the horns on the web, the Orp seems the most preferable to me. The sound isn't as obnoxious as others, but seems to be a pretty good alert. I'm leaning towards the Mirrcycle bell though, as there are no charging worries, and the sound is a little nicer. I will say though that...

    Are the Ergon PC2 pedals a significant upgrade?

    Very noob question here, but there is a sale at REI and these can be had for $43, so was wondering if they would be a big improvement over the pedals that come with the ST1?

    What kind of bell do you use?

    Well I took my brand new ST1 Plat for a very successful test ride yesterday, and one thing became very apparent to me - people do NOT look where they are going! Another thing became very apparent - the ST1 bell sucks. Someone had posted a pretty nice traditional style bell on this forum a...

    Does the ST1 only fit certain rear racks?

    hey man, being paranoid and worrying is what I do best :-)

    Does the ST1 only fit certain rear racks?

    Darn, it's silver :-(

    Does the ST1 only fit certain rear racks?

    Darn, I was really hoping to be able to get a white rack. What would happen if I mounted that white one? The Axiom that you suggest has one nice advantage, in that there is only one connector bar at the top, so it has more of a stealth look... would those weird bottom connectors go into one of...
