    Keeping water out of battery compartment on turbo Tero

    Just reinstall the battery. That’s what I do if I need to travel in wet/unsettled weather. Although that’s not often since I live in the Southwest :) :)

    Have you seen the revised Helios?

    “Buyer beware” is somewhat of a broad stroke and can apply to almost anything for sale . I had one experience with Luna many years ago and it was a DISASTER ! ”Buyer beware” is an understatement! I wasn’t trying to brag about how many bikes I have/had, just to show experience history, which...

    Have you seen the revised Helios?

    Ha Ha ! Nice try ! I’m not willing to put in the time to create a post here reflecting my experiences with more than a dozen ebikes. But I will say: Buy from a very well known brand and pay the money. And……..I’ve noticed a few comments regarding all the power the WW has if equipped and how...

    Have you seen the revised Helios?

    Thanks for your reply. It was well said and your intentions sound good. RE: Rohloff…..that’s why I bought the Touring model with cassette and chain. It can be easily repaired, it’s way way less expensive initially, efficiency is much better, much less unsprung weight, a more sporty feel, and...

    Have you seen the revised Helios?

    As a potential customer for Watt Wagon I have been following the relative threads for quite some time. As such , I have noticed that Pushkar is very attentive when selling a product and not so much after the sale :( I am a current owner (and have owned many ebikes) of the 2020 R&M Delite...

    Vado SL 5.0 -- reasonable range on hills? (Mt. Diablo, CA)

Two counterbalanced cars are permanently attached to opposite ends of the haulage cable, which is looped over a pulley at the upper end of a track. The two cars move in...

    My Creo (and other bikes probably) has a clutch on the rear derailleur and I did not know it

    V I’m more interested in why you don’t carry cash ”because of COVID”? Otherwise thanks for sharing your experience.

    Should Watt Wagons Accept Bitcoin?

    Actually it was 17%, not 17 dollars.....big difference :) Of course one could gamble and hold onto the crypto after payment and IF the value went up before you decide to sell that would be a good thing...............however it can also go DOWN :(

    I’ve had GEICO for years on my home and car and they DON’T cover ebikes....bummer. Alternative sources quoted as was previously mentioned in this thread..... about $700 per ebike (valued at $8K and $6K each). I bought three chains as shown above for a total cost of approx. $350 and have had no...

    Bike Insurance

    I’ve owned many ebikes over the last 7 years and in lieu of insurance ( about $700/year per bike) I’ve been using these and am careful where I park which includes lots of camping trips/boondocking etc.:

    garmin varia is excellent

    My mirror as shown in photo above is in my peripheral view so generally speaking I am always aware of what’s going on around and behind me. I’ve ridden over 20K miles in the past 5 years or so and I don’t remember once when I was surprised at something in the rear view mirror. It’s similar to...
