    Really good helmet light?

    Battery for headlight and turn signals, dash cam

    sorry when i said hook it all up to the controller, i meant the motorcycle switch that controls all of the stuff, not the controller on the bike. I fully understand this is 100% separate from the bike battery, that is the goal as to keep it separate from the bike. I think the 1.8aH is a little...

    Biked in a Coastal Flood - How to protect the feet front getting wet?

    lots of great options, thanks guys. Those waterproof socks kind of make my brain hurt though, seems impossible. So they really work, and i guess you just feel slightly damp feeling from the wet shoes? I will keep an eye out for them cheaply on amazon, thanks for that. Also i will look into...

    Fixing up 2004 Electric Bike - Charger!

    cool i ordered the oil and already have the park tool grease, and i decided on getting a slim channel lock tool from amazon that a lot of people mentioned using for bikes, since it was cheaper than buying a bunch of different sized ones. Thanks for the suggestions.

    I just wanted to share this video of this guy Dom Whiting, who plays drum and base music in england while riding around on his bike.
