    Thanks! I am definitely finding my military training helpful in this situation. I totally agree with everything you said. It’s all about being adaptable and working with the resources and information we have. Unfortunately at the moment the country has very little of both.

    I agree that much of these numbers aren’t very real, but I’m happy that we are starting to see more testing. I think Governor Coumo is doing a great job and he has been particularly good at approaching things in a calm and collected way. He’s clearly comfortable dealing with challenging...

    Thanks! I agree. In the grand scheme of things most of us are just minorly inconvenienced. We really need to think of those who are severely impacted and those who might be in the coming weeks or months. I’m happy that you were able to easily brush off your challenges when looking at things...

    Thank you! I appreciate your support. I’m confident that we will be okay. This actually reminds me of a quote I use often and I’m not sure where it came from “you don’t need more money, you need a better strategy” business is all about strategy and these times definitely call for a change of...

    Love this @Alaskan! So good. I completely agree with you. We need to look at the positive especially with all the forces trying to get us to look at the negative. Thanks for spreading hope and positivity.

    Illinois lockdown: bike shops still open

    Thanks! This is my feeling. I guess I’m fortunate to have considerable experience selling online and using digital tools. Not all businesses are so fortunate and it’s difficult to start while under duress. There are very challenging times ahead for many unfortunately.

    Love this. I know when I was shipped off to Iraq I had to very quickly consider deeper ideas about what is really important in life. It felt like a young age (21 at the time) to be considering what I might not have done with my life yet. I think we all should have similar thoughts, but most...

    Great feedback. This is the way I plan to work with our local customers. This should only be for critical repairs though as I think we should push things off for now if we can.

    Illinois lockdown: bike shops still open

    Thanks for posting this. I’m closing our store for test rides and only doing online and phone orders. I think it’s too risky to remain open. I hope I don’t regret our decision, but I think in these uncertain times we all have to act responsibly. You inspired me to put a separate post about our...

    Shipping an R&M Delite direct to customer

    Thanks so much Mike! We’re going to get through this together even if virtually and while we are physically distant which is a bit ironic. I always appreciate your support. Let me know if there is anyway I can assist you. I’m sure you’re going to love your new bike. I think I’m going to go out...

    Hey All, When I got back from Iraq, many people asked me what war was like. It’s a little like this. Little contact with others and loved ones, it can bring out the extreme best and worst in people. Overall it’s challenging, disorienting and scary. We can and will get through this I’m...

    Shipping an R&M Delite direct to customer

    Mike, I hope you’re staying safe and sane through all this. Congrats on your second bike. Unfortunately R&M can’t ship direct to customers and the bikes do require some final assembly before delivering to the end consumer. There is probably some insurance liability issues here as well. I...

    Moustache FS5 EMTB mode question

    Are you sure you don’t have it. It will still show as Sport mode but the bottom of the screen will temporary show eMTB mode at the bottom of the screen. If it’s not they you will need a Bosch dealer to enable it with their software.

    Leg room in the Load 60 vs Load 75?

    Sounds like the 60 would be fine for this. Especially with the footwell. Keep in mind you also have some capacity on the rear carrier with panniers and/or a rack top bag or basket.

    To the OP. New displays are backwards compatible. I wouldn’t be concerned about being able to support the bike long term.
