I’ve got the parts to do it but I don’t have the time yet. But I am doing exactly that at some point soon. I live in Japan so my parts are different but here’s an example component on Amazon you can use: Led Flashers I’m going to fair mine in with silicone on the inside of the rear fender...

I believe it is dimension “A” from the Japanese description which translated to “Seat tube length in 350mm and 400mm”.

Hey I got married there 👍🏻😁

You should chain Greta to the fence line along that viewpoint.

I bought the exact same thing for my wife. However she doesn’t sit on it. I installed it on her 20 inch folding bike so I could push her around with her on the bike while she became accustomed to balancing it again. The tube bracing is aluminum. The screws are junk metal. Not suitable for your...

@indianajo - sorry but that’s dead wrong wild fantasy, in the US Military at least. NO one ever enters a battle space without a defensive firearm - 95% have a standard M4A1 assault rifle at minimum. Very few carry only a side arm. In my active duty days as a Naval Aviator flying missions at...

The Chairman approves!

Hmmmm. No lights, no weapons, no comms radio, no water, but it looks like they have a notebook in a backpack’ish vest. Maybe a magnetic compass in their pocket. They’re riding well defined trails. It’s the Boy Scouts on a Jamboree!!! 🤣

Bridgestone Japan was trying to introduce that concept a few years back but it never came to fruition that I know of. Weight is certainly a factor since your replacing air.

The French were like that in May-June of 1940. They bivouacked and slept each night alongside the roads into France. On the other hand the Germans were taking methamphetamines (which they invented) to sustain 24x7 operations. Rommel rolled right through the French with his 7th Panzer division...

Oh. I thought we were talking about that heinous red Costco looking thing they’re hawking for $6000. The one with a 250w hub motor with max speed of 25km/h, standard range 100km, and weighs 29kg. Not to mention has a knockoff of a 1999 Giant’s inverted suspension for the seat post. 😁

Well the specs are nearly the same as my Vado SL - except it weighs half of that PoS you’re on about 🤣 - 250W!! Wow it’s like a motorcycle! Probably good enough for the Australian Army though because obviously they can’t afford real tactical motorcycles it appears.

It has very impressive specs, especially the weight at 29kg! The only way I could get my Vado SL to even get close to matching that weight is by mounting another Vado SL on top of it somehow. I bet it goes really fast downhill once it gets rolling though 🤣

I’ve owned and operated both products above and don’t recommend them specifically. Suntour post wasn’t soft enough to suppress vibrations (like brick paths) and not hard enough not to bottom out on bigger things like a 3cm curb. The Brooks saddle looks great but too weak for +100kg guy like me...

EXACTLY my sentiment. I’m sure there are a few exceptions, but for the most part crowdfunding is a scam perpetrated by people who don’t have a genuine innovation to hawk.

The Imperial Japanese Army captured Malaya and Singapore in a storm trooper blitzkrieg down the peninsula on bicycles. Back then bicycles were definitely a force multiplier as the IJA only had a force strength of 30,000, mostly infantry versus 138,000 on the British/Australian side, who also had...

Just be aware that the master keys can be downloaded and 3D printed quite easily these days: https://github.com/Xyl2k/TSA-Travel-Sentry-master-keys

Cops are taught to look for a cable attached to the hub so should be fairly stealth.

I’ve yet to check 2022 offerings but it’s probably difficult for Specialized to compete with domestic electric brands like Panasonic and Yamaha because of parity in quality and specification at half the price. If it weren’t for the light weight of the SL I’d be riding a Panasonic right now 😉.
