    E bike Cover For Highway Travel

    I don't know what you mean by "good money", but is $225 for a custom fit cover that will easily last 10-15 years reasonable to you? I live near the beach so there is a ton of saltwater boats in my area. We are fortunate enough to have a couple of excellent canvas shops in our area that...

    What Drives Riese & Müller?

    I like seeing companies that are focused on more than the bottom line. It is unfortunate that so many small companies start out like this and eventually get gobbled up by larger companies with a primary focus on profits. I enjoyed the video. Thanks for posting. I'm also really enjoying my...

    anyone know of a single only one ebike platform rack?

    I just purchased my second 1Up USA rack. Nothing wrong with the first one which was the standard Quick Rack rated at 50 lbs per bike. I wanted their Super Duty model rated at 75 lbs per bike. I got the new one today and set it up for my ebike. I continue to be extremely impressed with all...

    Need suggestions for fast ebike

    Most of the serious commuters use don't use drop bars. They use flat bars as they prefer to keep their heads and eyes up so that they can keep an eye on traffic around them. As mentioned above, you'll probably have a hard time finding a drop bar bike that meets all your requirements. 40 miles...

    Trek adopts MIK (Basil) rack system

    I just got my 2019 Nevo GH a couple of days ago. My rear rack is a Racktime. I wonder why yours came with MIK and mine came with Racktime? My frame size is 43 which could be the difference.

    I just spoke with Brook at 1Up USA. She took the time to look up a picture of my new bike (Riese & Muller Nevo GH) and said the front fender/wheel would not need the foam fender roller, but the rear arm would need the foam fender roller. Brook said they use the fender roller/protector all the...

    Hello from Tower Founder & CEO Stephan Aarstol

    Liked your video - not a single helmet anywhere. Riding barefoot with a surfboard in one hand and only 1 hand on the bars. To be honest, I would have done some of that in my younger days, but I am glad I lived through it long enough to become a little more safety conscious. Good luck in your...
