I find it interesting that Gates recommends 28-40 lb belt tension, but their Kriket Gauge Tension meter has a scale range of 40-150 lbs. I don't think I would pay $40 or more for a gauge that will not read in the scale I need. Wonder if anyone has tried using the free mobile app on their phone?

If you really want Internal Geared Hub (IGH), I suspect your wife would be very happy with R&M Nevo. It is nice not to have to clean or lube a chain. We own one with single battery and Enviolo CVT Hub and just ordered a second one with dual battery and Rohloff E14 hub. My scheduled build time...

You just need one more bike to have your quiver at the correct amount!

I think you summed up the 1Up USA rack quite well - simple but solid.

I drive with the cover on when on the back of the RV. I usually leave cover off when bikes are on the back of car as the cover partially obstructs my tail & brake lights. Light obstruction is not a problem when the bikes are on the back of the RV.

My thought is this thing looks like an expensive pain in the rear. I carry a bike or two on the rear of my class A and I use a good rack (1Up USA), a custom made to fit bike cover, and good locks. Never had a problem.

Anyone in the Hampton Roads area of VA interested in riding?

Yep you're good friends until you get about 3,500' into a 10,000' climb and one of your buddies takes your ebike away from you! For what you are doing, I like the Domane HP+, but I'd ride it every day! If anyone gives you any grief, just tell them that age and seniority has its privileges...

Are you sure the ramp works with the Transfer V2 rack? The link is for NV ramp and I don't see a ramp listed for the Transfer V2.

IUP says the spool on right side should contact tire (or fender) anywhere between "12 & 3 o'clock position". Left side would be anywhere between "9 & 12 o'clock position". I have tried lifting rear of bike off rack and cannot move it. I am very comfortable with it and just completed a 450...

The 1UP USA rack is perfect for my step through frame with fenders. There is one contact point on each tire and none on the frame itself. The spool that contacts the tire is adjustable (7 different positions) so that you can select the position that it contacts the tire. 1UP USA also offers...

Some of these prices are insane. Another problem is that resell value on some high end regular bikes seems terrible. I've got two very nice ten year old carbon road bikes that I'm trying to sell. I'll be very lucky if I can sell either one of them for 20% of their original purchase price...

I found a Culture in size 49 cm that should be nearly identical to the Homage 49 cm. I'm going to go see how this Culture fits next week. I also found out the R&M has a price increase effective March 1st. Any bikes ordered on or after that date, will be subject to the new price. The 2021...

If it was me, I would be looking at the 1Ip USA Super Duty or the brand new QuickR that was designed by a former employee of 1UpUSA. There is a video on YouTube that compares the 1Up USA to the Kuat NV2.0. I did not watch it so I don't know what they say about the two racks.

I have an R&M Nevo in size 43 cm that fits me pretty well. This bike is going to my wife and it is time to order a new one for myself. I like to get a dual battery Homage, but I'm fearful the smallest frame (49 cm) may be too large for me. I'm 5'-5" with a 27" inseam. None of the R&M dealers...

For those that have ordered a new R&M, I'm wondering how much down payment or deposit your dealer required at time of order? My closest dealer wants 75% at time of order and the remaining balance of 25% is due at time of delivery. That seems a bit excessive to me. Another dealer said they...

Great looking bike! Would you mind sharing what dealer you purchased it from? Thanks and enjoy the ride!

One of my favorites

What about Frank Marino and Mahogany Rush? That was some serious rock & roll that never achieved much fame in the USA. Frank was often compared to Hendrix in the 70's and is/was highly regarded by greats such as Joe Bonamassa and Johnny Winter. If you are over the age of 55 and have never...
