Awesome, thanks for posting!!

I’ve had a rough fall. In September I had an acute gangrenous gall bladder removed by emergency surgery, but had to be readmitted when the site started leaking bile juice into my abdominal cavity. Worst pain in my life. Then my cardiac output started going way bad; my left ventricular ejection...

I’ve had mild to moderate peripheral neuropathy for >15 years from a combination of diabetic (non insulin dependent) neuropathy combined with intermittent neuropathy from two herniated discs. Whenever I lift too much my left foot goes numb for several days. Then I had a stroke summer 2015 and...

Good to know, thanks. I honestly and erroneously thought BafangUSADirect was their site.

The magnetic pick up for my Bafang mid drive is on a rear spoke, so chainring changes do not change the top speed with the motor, which is governed by that rear wheel sensor. I have mine set at 25mph max, and chainring size had no effect on maximum electric assist speed on the bike. However, it...

I have a “hunting“ fat e bike with a Bafang BBS02 motor with a Sturmy Archer 3 speed IGH. It was geared low and slow for riding off road and hauling trailers with game out of the woods. It was geared so low I couldn’t pedal fast enough to keep up with the motor at road speeds. So I changed the...

That’s a great concept but it doesn’t appear to the available in America.

DEET is not very effective at repelling ticks. Permethrin is much better, no comparison really. I wouldn’t recommend burning ticks at all. https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation-now/2017/06/05/should-burn-tick-off-5-common-myths-ticks/364929001/ There’s a quite effective, simple and...

Are these compatible with a Mirrycle bar end rear view mirror?

They are often frowned upon, but I opted for an adjustable stem riser. Not only did it raise the handlebars, it brought them rearward a bit, decreasing both hand numbness and reach and lower back pain. https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B07BFQ25WT?psc=1&ref=ppx_pop_mob_b_asin_title One of the...

That could get to be expensive ;-)

It can’t be used on skin primarily because the oils in the skin break down the permethrin so it’s inactive in 15-20 minutes. It’s actually a low grade “toxin” for humans even though it’s a highly effective pesticide against ticks. http://npic.orst.edu/factsheets/PermGen.html#body It’s far...

I’m in an area heavily infested with ticks. I had an imbedded tick earlier this summer and went through a 3 week course of antibiotics. After researching the issue, I found permethrin is the single best tick repellant/killer. I invested in socks, pants, and t-shirts permanently treated with...

Fascinating technology though: https://www.vivax-assist.com/

PM sent.

From the link I posted: “Reevo says pre-orders (which open next month) will cost $1,899. Once those are sold out, the price leaps 43% to $3,349.”

I’ve seen their ads on Facebook and find the design and technology to be fascinating. If it works as promised that design could be a major breakthrough.
