Yes, but I don't do facebook. I'm a bit of an introvert, and prefer forums like this.

FWIW, I'm in the same area, and my real world average speed is typically between 14 and 15 mph.

http://problemsolversbike.com/products/hubs/axle_nuts_-_25017 I got them from Jenson http://www.jensonusa.com/Problem-Solvers-Axle-Nuts If anybody needs to know, the correct size is 3/8 X 26tpi

Just a FYI, the Sapim nipples are a super tight fit in the rim locking them at 90 deg, I drilled the rim with a 7/32" bit for a better fit that allows the nipples to seat at an angle as their design intends. (Link Removed - No Longer Exists) If I were to do it again, I would probably drill the...

Who knows, and its dubious as the spokes are short and thick. I simply did it by feel and sound. I agree a torque arm would be best, but the Problem Solvers nuts seem to be up to the task as one can really tighten them down.

Ebay to the rescue, and the seller ships really fast. (Link Removed - No Longer Exists) I actually got 13G spokes with the idea the slightly thinner spokes might hold their tension better on a bicycle rim. They're only .3 mm thinner, not much of a difference really (Link Removed - No Longer Exists)

"Spoke" too soon, Broke a spoke today at 807 miles. Relaced the wheel after drilling out the spoke holes with 13G Sapim spokes and nipples. The Sapim nipples allow some deviation in angle, but the spokes still aren't perfectly true. If any of the new spokes break, I will get a better rim with...

Plug and play as in correct volt and amp range for the lighting circuit. Besides the lights one will need some some connectors and shrink tube. The headlight comes with enough wire for the tail light. Male spade connector, Nobel U-501D .110 X .020 22-18 g Female spade connector, Nobel U-502D...

800 miles on a wagon, no real issues, but room for minor improvement. Rear derailleur needs to be upgraded for smooth reliable shifting through all gears, higher quality cables with better routing helps too. No broken spokes, but they required fairly regular tensioning for the first 250...

800 miles on my wagon since I got it in February. My daily commute is 16 miles round trip and has major hills, I use mostly PAS 3 except for a block long 20% hill where I use PAS 5. I usually have 2 bars left. I've done 60 miles using PAS 1 and 2 on modest terrain and had 3 bars left. A lot...

(Link Removed - Attachment No Longer Exists) I like trekking bars, have them on my Gazelle, seriously considered them for my wagon but went with traditional north road bars instead.

That's the derailleur I used to upgrade. Once you upgrade the derailleur, the OE shifters will work perfectly, and you won't gain anything by changing them. Replacing the OE cables with Jagwire mountain pro cables will also make a noticeable improvement...

Yes, it can be used with the OE shifter, and cable without any changes or modifications.

I tried fenders like that, and found they were basically useless, and a waste of money. I've never had any luck with cheap, or "make due" fenders, poor protection, noisy, always moving out of adjustment, just not worth the headache. I know all about tight budgets, but sometimes the best value...

Yes, perfect for the application. This is the one I have on my Radwagon,, https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003OWPRLI/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Significant improvement over the OE derallieur.

I don't ride off road, therefore I prefer to only use properly engineered headlights. In my experience, those tethered flashlights are a poor bargain,, and find lumens to be a poor measure of a lights actual worth. I rather make the minor effort to have my primary lights fully integrated and...

What are you trying to charge?

I can understand them not liking roadworthy lights off road, its the wrong tool for the job, and a sure way to get clotheslined by a tree branch. I can't use lights I can't aim properly because I have many long steep hills to contend with. If I aim a light low, it creates a bright pool of light...

If one desires maximum output, the Supernova M99 has an output of 1100 lumens on lowbeam, 1600 lumens on high beam, and its a true engineered, controlled headlight that will maximize the effectiveness of those lumens while being usable on public roads and paths without its compromising aim or...
