Conversion to SRAM NX/GX AXS is done! The GX shifter is temporarily mounted just for setup and tuning. The front brake lever hits it so I can’t ride the bike that way. I have some SRAM blips coming on Monday which I’ll mount on the underside of the flat part of the handlebars. They will be my...

One can never have too many bikes. I’m currently building a TI monster fat tire gravel bike. Next will be a super light street fighter bike. I have a disease for which there is no cure.

I have seven bikes including this one. Long term reliability is still a question but the parts are common and the bike is easily serviced. Nothing on here is unique or unusual. s*it a complete new battery is only $230.00. I say go for it! https://ride1up.com/product/cf-racer1-electric-bike-battery/

Yeah I’m not changing the handlebars. It’s too costly and a pita. I have the ergonomics set the way I like it. After todays ride the only upgrades I’ll be doing is to the drive train for better gearing and electric shifting.

Different style of bike. All depends on what you want.

Ride1UP CF Racer1. Weighs 27lbs for the road version and 28lbs for the gravel. Has a 250w 42nm torque motor. Small 36v battery. Range 15 to 30 miles but a range extender battery is available. Price is $2295.00.

Good info, Thanks! The bike came with Schwalbe E-One tires in 700X32. Pleasantly surprised on how they performed. Going to keep them on until they need replacing.

Mine is the road version. I got Schwalbe Super Moto’s but in 700X38 vs the 700X32 that come on the bike. What size and tire did you buy if you don’t mind me asking?

I got new tires for mine but haven’t put them on yet. The tires on the bike are excellent and the rolling resistance is very low. It just rolls and rolls and rolls. Grip is excellent. They are skinny but I may just keep them on for now. Replace them once I need new tires.

Gonna keep this post short. Did a real ride today, 12 miles round trip. For 8 of the 12 the bike wasn’t even powered on. It’s that easy to ride. Really enjoyed my ride today. Going for a longer ride tomorrow. My conclusion, this bike is a keeper. You simply cannot buy anything like this for the...

I actually raised it after that photo. It was too low but I didn’t have any tools with me on the ride to adjust it. I have it a little higher than the stem now.

Ok, got a little seat time. Enough to give a first ride impression. First off, this is a sweet bike Ebike parts aside. At 27lbs is light enough that you can easily ride it with zero assistance. The SRAM Rival 1 groupset is really nice and works perfectly. Shifts were quick and the brakes are...

Nope, only available in 50mm and 56mm. I just happened to luck out and a 56mm fits me perfectly. If I do the swap the stem and bars I’ll be using will look nice. They are semi integrated. Only the brake hoses will be visible at the bars end.

Yes. The two set screws in the back of the stem and the top cap screw is what holds the bars on. The whole assembly turns when you turn the bars. Once torqued down the assembly isn’t going anywhere. I’m just not a fan of the drop bars so I want to swap them out for a FSA SMR ACR stem and Race...

Precisely why I want to do the swap. Zero adjustment with the current setup. I’d be using FSA KFX MTB handlebars, FSA ACR headset, and FSA SMR 100mm stem. Brakes would be Magura MT4 flat mount. I also need a new 31.8 holder for the display. I’m trying to source that. I already checked with...

Considering converting this bike to flat bars. I’ve been researching if it can be done and it looks like it can. I’d lose the total cable concealment as the brake lines would be exposed at the bar but that doesn‘t bother me. Need to get some good seat time with the current drop bar setup before...

Very similar except Luna’s bike is a flat bar and has a mid drive motor. I’d actually prefer a flat bar setup but it’s not available on the CF Racer1. Might be a future project of mine.

Saw that, the wind noise does suck. He was moving at 20 plus mph against a headwind.

I believe it is. Let me tell you, this is a very nice bike for the money. I don’t know how in the hell R1P is selling these at under $2300.00 and making any profit. Sure it could have had a torque sensor, wouldn’t have raised the price much and would have been the icing on the cake. I was going...
