    Are these bikes not identical bikes?

    So to me these are the exact same identical bike I know most manufactures use the same frame distributors but why is one $1500 more expensive? https://wattwagons.com/en-ca/collections/multi-terrain/products/hydra-sale https://www.biktrix.ca/products/monte-capro-lite?variant=40953660178629

    We need to stop blaming victims in bike theft!

    To be honest the police officer here in Waterloo, Ontario was 100% understanding and seemed like her really wanted to make sure I got my bike back. He toured some of the bad parts of the city that were known bike thief places. I didn't think I would get such polite and understanding service from...

    Even under your butt or on a car its not safe, people have told me that bike thieves will just run up and push you over and just take it. thieves are becoming so brazen. They are even talking it right off the back of vehicles at stop lights! Here is some video footage of a failed attempt but it...

I am 100% hands on and have my own workstation and...

    Need Help Buying a New e-Bike

    Yeah I am almost to the point where I don't want a throttle but there are days when I am just dead by the end of the day or feeling like crap in the morning or have a stich and I just throttle home or to work and it just helps me frame the commuting with a bike to myself in my mind if that makes...

    Need Help Buying a New e-Bike

    I will disagree, if someone just told you they were sexually assaulted, do you follow up with "Were you dressed provocatively?" Sorry to use the sexual assault think here so much I know it is NOT the same in any way but I am trying to draw a parallel because you think it's okay to say this...

    Let me be frank I know you're not being an ass here you are doing exactly what you said calling a spade a spade. People can be a bit hypocritical even myself and we get stuck in our opinions. I'm just hoping this is one thing I can help change this outlook because I really feel people don't...

    We need to stop blaming victims in bike theft!

    I wanted one on my bike but it has big old 4" fat tires on them. I could not find one that could go over them. I am pretty sure my new bike will have them. Like you said just even sitting on a bench with your bike right beside you. You need one as a defacto now. My idea was for a cafe lock on...

    We need to stop blaming victims in bike theft!

    The biggest problem I have is that I want to use the bike also for mountain biking in the trails. it's almost like I'm going to have to have two bikes. one for commuting, one for the trails. I don't want big locks strapped to the bike when ridding but then I forget to put it back on when I'm...
