    2016 Turbo X: First week (and beyond) commuting impressions

    Great theory and proof. I wouldn't be surprised at all if that fixes your issues. I generally like my tires a little on the squishy side, as opposed to really really firm and this may explain the difference. Additionally I only have a micro pump with no gauge but I bet I rarely pass 60 psi...

    2016 Turbo X: First week (and beyond) commuting impressions

    I commute and weight 185 with a 2015 X. I haven't had a spoke fail yet and currently at 2000 miles. I did true the wheel after I started hearing a little tick, which was a loose spoke, but aside from that nothing. (BTW truing the wheel, if your not aware, is simply performing a whole turn or...

In general if its below 20 it feels a little less peppy and the battery drains slight faster but that is about it. So much fun. In winter I switch to a snowboard helmet for its nice ear warmers and...

    How many gears do you use?

    Hey! I bought a 2015 Turbo X last December and have put over 600 miles on it already. Loving every minute of it! I live in the Denver area which is hilly and windy. But I too find that I am almost never in the lowest gear except when off assist; however, without assist on or at low levels of...
