Not in Canada, but a friend used these guys and had good luck with the experience with a Giant Fathom E+, https://www.replacementkeys.co.uk/vehicle/ebike-battery/giant/

Day 38 since knee replacement and on advice from my physio, it was time to do a test ride I kept to simple stuff, on paths, alleys and roads, but couldn't resist a simple route on my local park. Feel pretty good about it and tomorrow will let me know the reality. For now - I feel pretty good...

Pretty simple warnings - take it easy (nothing too strenuous) and don't fall. Oh, and "your Black Diamond" runs are history. That's no problem - I rode my last Black Diamond run quite a while ago, but there's a really good variety of simple trails near me that I can do. I find bike paths boring...

First ride in a while - day 20 after TKR (Total Knee Replacement). Just 20 minutes while watching some golf from the Augusta Women's Amateur. Great finish to the golf tournament by the way. Healing trajectory is pretty good - hope to be outside on the bike in a month or so. I'll need to stick...

Certain crimes are like fishing these days - "catch and release" fishing that is...

Not a picture of a ride, but got some new ride "hardware" last Monday. All is good - not much pain and walking (with walker) really well. I hope to be posting rides again in about 8-10 weeks.

Do not forget about storage of the bikes while you are there. Not all hotels have good facilities for secure storage and also be aware that there may be some "very strong" reticence in you charging batteries in your rooms. I am speaking from experience (my wife's wheelchair has Li-Ion batteries...

Autumn has always been my favorite season, and my local park is resplendent with appropriate colours. Not been riding as much as my left knee has finally said that it's had enough, so when my spot comes up for a new one I will take the spot this time. I've been on and off the waiting list...

A little more in line about how I feel about ChatGPT, although my french is a little rusty :cool:

I am of the opinion that it's time for 100% "bike dashcam" when riding, and sending in licence plates each and every time. It's nice to dream...

Welcome to the forums from another prairie person (although perhaps more a foothills person). A BionX e-bike kitted Townie was my first foray into e-bikes and it was a revelation. Great bikes for tootling about. Now, two more e-bikes later, both MTB, I love them more than ever.

Was just out at Bragg Creek golfing on Thursday at Wintergreen. Just another round of golf where your bag contains clubs, balls, water and bear spray... Nice ride!

Looks great! My rub is very similar, but I add Cayenne and 5 Spice (and perhaps a bit more salt). Nice on Pork tenderloin too.

Regarding parking at Moraine and Lake Louise, when I go there, I am with my wife and therefore with handicap parking. Never had a problem finding a space.

Thanks for sharing that, I haven't been to Moraine Lake in a few years and it's just as beautiful as I remember. Watching your video, I was thinking for the first 3 minutes, "I could ride that". Then the side slopes began and any thoughts of that disappeared. Looking forward to the return!

Different pricing where @Prairie Dog and I live. Where you get may get sales and discounts (on assembled bikes), we get regular prices and often limited supply (yes - I know those have some pretty solid correlation). $50 USD is $67 CDN and you don't get higher end tires for that here either...

I've used Chain Reaction before, and I had a look as they normally have some impressive pricing. On a few spot checks, I think they are cheaper than the store you suggested. At Chain Reaction, prices are similar to what I can get locally ($CDN), maybe 10-12% savings, but limited or no stock at...

Thanks for the feedback - what I have seems to work for me and pricing is actually cheaper then the others here. I just decided to go with what I know works - perhaps next time I'll dig deeper.

Not an upgrade thing, but while cleaning up the bike after some trail riding today, I noticed the tires are starting to show quite a bit of wear. The tires have 1900 Kms on them - not surprised. So I had a look at my LBS online, the place I bought the bike, and low and behold the tires I have...

Did you notice how much faster the camera moved when there wasn't that blue shirted slow-poke leading the way! 😂
