A few more interesting sights in the village of Carmel by-the-Sea.

I have de-restricted two Shimano mid-drive motors... no issues even with recent software updates. ;)

Here's a case in point... delimiting can help achieve a maximum speed of 54mph while descending. ;)

If you regularly hit the wall at 19-20 mph you will wonder how you lived without the speed delimiter. ;)

Welcome to EBR. ;) If you can go over your 40 lb EBike limit, the Sondors is a great bike and will handle your 250 lb weight easily. Take a look at the review of best bikes... the Sondors is well built and is the affordable category pick from EBR...

I enjoyed hearing the crisp crunch of the snow in your video... how do you gauge the ice thickness? ;)

Correct, the chart needs to be updated to include 10-12 gears on the rear cog... the recommended Levels remain the same, Deore, SLX, XT, etc. ;)

Here are a few additional options recommended by EBR. https://electricbikereview.com/best-folding-electric-bikes/

Interesting idea for urban bike renters... probably cheaper than the rates to rent by the day or event. ;) https://electrek.co/2021/02/16/electric-moped-sharing-company-revel-wants-to-rent-you-an-e-bike-for-99-mo/ Revel may have made its name in pay-by-the-minute electric moped rentals, but...

TLDR... Range of small battery & small motor = large battery and large motor. ;)

Spotted a lone bird out on a rocky point... geese nesting perhaps? Maybe a birdwatcher can help identify what's going on here. ;)

Reminds me of the long-awaited Sondors’ crowdsourced, 3-wheeled $10,000 EV... yet to be produced. ;) https://electrek.co/2018/01/06/sondors-opens-preorders/ https://electrek.co/2017/12/01/sondors-3-wheel-10000-dollar-ev/

Well done... the photo documentation is great for other EBR members.

I need to get that Lockring tool... just in case I want to change the front ring to a larger size for a higher top end speed. ;)

You really don't need to charge to 100% to balance the cells on a Yamaha OEM pack with a sophisticated BMS. Our resident expert, Ravi has confirmed this a number of times on various EBR battery threads. Hope this helps.

Go Sharks... they're our hometown team in Silicon Valley. ;) The Bianchi Celeste color is a bit lighter than the Sharks Teal.

Good to see that Jeff is passing the torch to the next generation at Tesla Research. And it looks like he will take the leadership role of Chief Scientist at Novonix. ;)

Here's a bit more detail from my ride yesterday afternoon. Vehicle traffic was not permitted on the 17-mile drive due to the golf tournament... perfect for time segments on Strava. ;)
