    Ebike rack

    Thanks for the recommendations…most appreciated. That 1UP rack looks very good and it appears that would work very well for a Trek Allant 7 with fenders. I do not want to remove the fenders nor do I want to have a clamp dent them. Seems the 1UP tire support ‘clamp’ attaches in front of the tire...

    Ebike rack

    Hi, Appreciate feedback regarding an ebike car rack. So many pros and cons amongst the so-called ‘name’ brands. Thule Easy Fold, Kuat, etc. I have read where racks that secure the bike by the frame risk tarnishing the bike’s paint finish. That racks that secure via the top of the wheels/tires...

    Hi, Appreciate thoughts on whether suspension seat post makes sense for the Allant 7. Riding on mainly hard packed river trails and slight road use, to get to river trails. Thanks!

    Allant 7 handlebar size

    Hi, Does anyone know if the Allant 7 handlebar size is larger, wider, on the l and XL frames? From what I read from Trek info, appears the handlebar comes in 2 sizes. I imagine a larger width for the large and XL frames. Thanks!

    Allant 7

    Hi, Thanks for your very useful information..most appreciated! I notice in your pics that a rack support arm goes over the wheels…does that impact the bike fenders? Or can u place that support arm away from the fenders? That range boost battery is $1400.00 Canadian where I live. I am curious if...

    Allant 7

    Thanks! I am much more optimistic now about that Thule easy fold rack. I agree, often user error causes the reported issues. Thanks again!

    Thule Easy Fold hitch

    Hi, Have been reading many complaints that the support arm (that holds bike) comes loose or falls when driving over minor bumps in the road. Seems totally unacceptable for such an expensive hitch (1100.00 where I live). A limited life time warranty is pointless if one’s expensive ebike is...

    Allant 7

    Hi, Thanks very much! I have secured an Allant 7 for late July, early August. Appreciate your Bontrager adjustable stem recommendation, as I am 6’3 and sure would be more comfortable with a more upright riding position. Too bad the cables are not a little longer but some improvement is better...

    Bag to fit Trek-Diamant Racktime Snapit City Rear Rack

    Hi, Does anyone have recommendations for a bag (no panniers) to fit a Trek-Diamant Racktime Snapit City Rear Rack? That rack is on the Trek Allant 7. I prefer no panniers, just a bag that snaps on, that Is easy and fast to install and remove (for security, etc.). I have talked to a Trek...

    Maybe those ‘young adults‘ are simply looking for excuses to avoid responsibility and accountability. Obviously, we cannot paint everyone with the same brush! There are young adults who are very responsible and who provide exemplary service in all walks of life. Just as there are many ‘young...

    Thanks! Curious re recommendations for a bag (no panniers) for my Trek Allant 7 rack…a Racktime one. Be great to have a snap on bag so that installing and removing is easy, fast. Velcro straps work but of course take time to thread around bars Thanks! PS. Bike shop prices are quite high here so...

    SOS…major decision time!

    Hi, Thanks to all for your recommendations…most appreciated! I have owned a NCM Moscow Plus (NOT a great name!!) since 2 years. It is a very nice ebike but has a rear hub motor and a reported 60nm. 29 inch wheels and it is huge! I am 6’3 and can barely straddle the top bar! With an extra battery...

    SOS…major decision time!

    Hi, After considerable searching, calling, etc., I have confirmed that I could get a Trek Allant 7 by the end of July or a Giant Explore Pro by early September. Bosch versus Yamaha motors, etc. I have always liked Trek but the Giant Explore Pro has a very nice colour display, and I have heard...

    Thanks and totally agree with you! Zero interest except for their damn cell phones…pathetic! Too many allowing themselves to be controlled by an addictive small piece of metal and plastic! I have never owned nor will ever own a cell phone…and I have successfully held a demanding position in the...
