    The Outfitter Has Arrived

    The Lebowske is $300 more with a drop seat (probably the coolest upgrade), XO drivetrain and Guide RSC brakes, so you can adjust pad tightness on the handlebars. The Outfitter uses a level lower in drivetrain and brakes (xo1 and guide rs), but both are still very good. It compensates the two...

    Custom Conversion vs Stock.

    Hey @Hong, is it just the perspective or did you run a 26" in the rear to make room for the battery? So good looking! @flymeaway, did you miss the torque sensors on the Neos? Not to be a snob, (actually, I'm a total snob) but I would have trouble going back to cadence sensors. Are you using a...

    See Article on New Automatic Shimano Drive

    Had a shimano guy ride past me on the STEPS system at interbike demo day. I ran after him on foot halfway across the convention to catch up to him. He wouldn't let me ride it. NOW I HATE THE STEPS!!!!! ...until they let me ride it... ...please.

    El Mariachi Ti D-Series Build up

    Waiting for a package from China to arrive and then I'll have them up. It's not a big deal really, my bike pales in comparison the the Salsa, but there is something that everyone should be doing with their bikes.

    El Mariachi Ti D-Series Build up

    Super pleased with both. It's about the most powerful motor out there with the best torque sensor. The level one pedal assist is my favorite in the industry. You genuinely won't feel it helping you, so you'll feel like superman. It also runs really quite, which I love. I'm currently riding...

    El Mariachi Ti D-Series Build up

    Brilliant! That would be amazing. Yeah, you should do that. The XX1 would work, too. I know that these cassette designs were made for hard shifting, but I still tossed a cheaper x-9 level cassette onto the Bionx to run for a little while to let the customer break into the bike. I have an...

    Custom Conversion vs Stock.

    Of custom builds? Between 2k and 10k. The one pictured, once completed, will be closer to the latter. E-joe Epik SE was aways the stealthiest bike.

    What ebike is for me, Help me decide?

    @mDOT, the police only target deliverymen with the e-bike legislation. NYCE is in the upper east side. Greenpath is in Brooklyn and @Chris Nolte has a new shop, Propel, opening in Fort Green across from the Naval Yard. I think he's having a ST2 party there on March 21st. ...Get an ST2.

    Bike Ratings on EBR

    @bikerjohn, I think it just comes by having actually tried everything out there, as well as knowing the history of the companies and their reputation. I don't necessarily agree with all of Court's scoring, but I trust him a heck of a lot more than anyone else. People like/want different things...

    e-joe Koda?

    Hey @Mike Smith, Yeah, I liked the Koda, though I only tried the 350w. They're still experimenting with some different controllers, but hopefully will be out early April.

    Legal LOOPHOLE? Can 800W M1 Spitzing qualify as CA Class1 BICYCLE

    I've always wondered how this could upheld, realistically. For instance, we had a Stealth Fighter hitting non-motorized trails here. Obviously, the guy was tearing it up most of the time, but would cut power when he approached other riders. Adjustable controllers seem invite a lot of the...

    Custom long-range cruiser build - go ahead, judge me

    Ann, I have a buddy here that custom builds steel frames: http://silentcycles.com/ I can't believe how light they are! The idea that steel has to be heavy is a myth.
