    Bosch Smart System, Kiox 300, PowerTube 750, eBike Flow App

    I believe that was the first year of the 4th Gen CX.

    Bosch Smart System, Kiox 300, PowerTube 750, eBike Flow App

    Well, yes and no. Having bought an ‘05 Corvette (the first of the C6 Gen) there were a couple of things they fixed in the next year. The worse was a stupid issue that required manual shifters be put in reverse when shut down, otherwise you risked a dead battery within a few days from some open...

    Ah yes, the old corn cob reference. I used outhouses at many farms in my life but no corn cobs were ever present, thank goodness!

    Bosch range boost - questions

    All three of our Trek ebikes (2 Allant+7 & Rail 5) use the 4th Gen CX and I’ve got all the updates as of the end of August. The EMTB-Lite (or Touring+) mode and EMTB mode are different in that they both add more power as you add more power but EMTB mode adds more power, supposedly up to 300+...

    How to safely wash the bike with water

    I have to admit that while recently out west, I took both of our filthy Allant+7 ebikes to a car wash, removed both batteries, and washed both of them carefully with the low settings using a soft-bristled brush. Used soap on the outsides and drive trains (after using a bit of Finish Line...

    It's fire season again

    The one continuous phenomenon we witnessed on our 3 week trip out west was lots of dried up lakes, rivers and reservoirs. The west has been frying in heat and damn little rain for many years. Jackson Lake between the Tetons and Yellowstone was a couple hundred yards from the shore compared to...

    Bosch range boost - questions

    Sounds Like Haibike messed up. My understanding is the Range Booster on Trek ebikes like the Allant are supposed to charge and discharge simultaneously from the in-frame charging point.

    Why Container Ships Can’t Sail Around the California Ports Bottleneck

    Sure but where are the drivers who took it back?

    Why Container Ships Can’t Sail Around the California Ports Bottleneck

    The fact that theres a truck driver shortage is also evident in Britain’s recent gas shortage. https://www.cbsnews.com/news/uk-gas-pumps-run-dry-truck-driver-shortage-supply-chain-chaos/

    Get a good helmet, and wear it.

    Wow, half the folks in this forum insist on going faster and look at the idiots they show in this story with throttles going very fast. Labeled as an ebike accident and emphasizing how fast and dangerous they are. This is the kind of rider who will get laws against ebikes passed very quickly.

    Yet another reason to avoid public roads with a bicycle at all costs.

    A Teenager Hit Six Cyclists While Trying To Roll Coal And Was Not Arrested

    Kid/parents probably have friends on the force. Lots of police/justice system BS protecting rich kids. Maybe he’s their local high school QB.

    Loading 60+lbs ebike onto Hitch Mast Style rack arms using climbing rope and top tube adapter

    I had a similar rack from Thule and returned it within a week. Just wouldn’t work for my ebikes and was a PITA to load. Went with a Hollywood Racks Sport Rider SE for two ebikes. Works great!

    Aventure rear brakes do nothing, fronts barely engage

    First, I worked my ass off for many, many years to get what I have. So shoot me, I’m a capitalist. I see all kinds of folks here say they can’t afford something and then spent weeks/months whining on this forum because they ended up with some POS with no support that costs them even more...

    if you order parts by mail maybe you're going to wait a bit.

    This is a complex issue here in the U.S. of A. Having a private entity in charge of our mail (especially in an election year) has a whole lot of concerns for me. Generally, the problems getting things right now is not the fault of the USPS, it’s the manufacturers and overseas shipping issues in...
