    Cassette Noob Queston

    Thank you @AHicks for answering that 😊 I just meant how can you adjust a chainring? You would need to buy a different type and replace it right? I was wondering if you meant like angling it or adjusting your current one or replacing it with another type?

    Cassette Noob Queston

    By changing, you mean replacing it with a 12 tooth chainring, right? Sorry, I have newb super powers lol Edit: also where does narrow-wide chain types come into play? Are there chainring requirements for the number of teeth that are compatible? Sorry for all the questions.

    Cassette Noob Queston

    This might get me laughed at if I'm wrong on this... is the reason the cassette is harder to spin on the highest gear because each cog below the gear you have, also has to spin? So gear 1 the big cog spins alone, gear 2 the big cog and the second big cog spin, etc until the highest gear they...

    Does e-Biking Help You With Other Sports?

    So sorry to hear that happened to you. That's terrible! I was just going to say that e biking has really helped me start getting into shape and it definitely uses a lot of your core muscle groups. You can still get winded on an ebike! Also, if you're really hardcore, you can try turning off...

    Advantages of a 2nd battery vs Range Boost on Domane+ and other models?

    Oh, sorry Dallant - I thought that was one in your picture. I'm not sure what to call them. I just meant saddles with springs in the back like yours have.

    Advantages of a 2nd battery vs Range Boost on Domane+ and other models?

    Sorry off topic a bit... but how do suspension saddles compare to suspension seat posts (like that on the verve)? I like your setup with the bag to hold the second battery on the top tube like that too.

    Compulsory insurance "likely" on ebikes if 3-class becomes federal law

    okay, that makes sense. I was just curious because I would like insurance for the off-chance my bike got stolen, or for liability, etc.. I think only California could get this through state-farm it seems. I'm in Illinois, and so far we aren't required to register them... so far...

    Is it possible to limit motor power?

    So in case anyone wants a laugh.. it looks like I made a mistake and thought some of the picture in the background was part of that.. It looks like it's just your phone holder with some of the wheel from the picture on the wheel. Sorry for that. I thought maybe it was some kind of specialized...

    Can someone tell me what adjusting these display advance settings do

    PWM is Pulse-width modulation. I believe it describes the duty cycle of the bike - how often the motor is going vs. [get ready for this bad terminology :D] "not going"... ? It's basically the rate it is in motion for - from 1 being constant to 0 being not at all. Poles... all I can think of...

    Is it possible for a mere mortal to program a Bosch motor?

    If it really bothers you that much, could you simply remove the light and wiring and put on an external light instead? Just thinking out-loud. I'm not sure if that would even work or save any battery power though. I know the Bosch motors are very proprietary and Bosch makes lots of different...

    Is it possible to limit motor power?

    Just curious, what is that giant thing in the middle of your bike - with the handle on it? Never seen that before...

    Grinding noise whilst rotating peddles

    Can someone enlighten me on the bearings. I know Bosch and similar midframe motors rely on a special bottom bracket to hold the motors in place (at least this is what I thought - feel free to correct me, because I'm still learning all this stuff). My question is why would the motor be the cause...

    Compulsory insurance "likely" on ebikes if 3-class becomes federal law

    State farm insures bicycles / e-bikes? I thought only a handful of special companies did this?

    The Green Room

    One question I have - what actually causes batteries to die after say 10 years of operation? What i'm trying to figure out for say Lithium ion batteries: which of these reactions become irreversible? And would there be a way to salvage any of the chemical or material components used in these? If...

    The Green Room

    The one thing that strikes me about this though, is that it's totally unnecessary.. Sure it saves a little bit of money (which no one will deny is a good thing) but it sacrifices a ton of comfort. The reason i say all this is unnecessary, is because this is like trying to save a drop of water in...
