I dont doubt that the Wabash is good, and I own a Giant Road-E too, but the Wabash is 20mph limited (unless you delimit it which voids the warranty) and the Road-E isn't low maint. imo. jim6b's suggestion is what I was thinking of. not sure how tried and true it is at this point. @pushkar is...

if you can relax the requirement for drop bars, that opens your world up. I dont believe there is a bike that exists that has all those characteristics listed.

The iGO Carbon CGV shows as available in Canada. Price is $6,950CAD ($5,246USD today) for base w/105 and comes in at 27.8lbs. (don't know which size). Sizing is unfortunate. At least, their 55CM wouldn't fit me well.

The closest I came to what you describe OP was a Raleigh Tamland IE. It had a Brose motor.

Wow, amazing trip and beautiful pictures! That's some serious mileage too on the bike.

well, i had a new motor installed at 3,900 miles! i brought it in for a squeak, and that was the remedy. unfortunately the squeak was quickly back and i still need to have my friend check out the bike to see the source. it seems to be more pronounced on hills. at 3,630mi., i swapped the rear...

Sleep state for me was <7 days, so I can't imagine an armed would have that much life. Alas, my battery could have been compromised.

Like Mike, the last 12% seems to jump to 7% and the countdown still continues on. This is on a '17 Giant Road-e+.

I currently don't use sealant. It dries out. You can top it off without cleaning previous sealant out. They say to clear big chunks out.

You don't have to be doing extreme mountain biking to reap the benefits of tubeless by airing down to a low pressure. I personally don't do it because sealant will dry out in 3 months and I dont like the maintenance of it.

I think you are digging deep into the semantics. They will both puncture, but you may not experience a flat because the sealant fills the void.

Yes you are right. If you have a tube on you, a normal pump is fine. If you want to reseal as tubeless, those little CO2s will seat fine as tubeless.

Sherlock's shop is currently down. Are they still available for sale?

For Boomerang, there is a video of a guy taking a hammer to it on their site. It was pretty tough and the alarm was going off. Kind of like the ADT signs, I'd prefer visibility on my security device to deter theft. I have the V1 Boomerang and it is junk. I got it as part of sponsoring the...

Mtl_biker, hate the lack of labeling standards! But I am glad it got sorted. Offtopic but: CO2 does in fact work well for roadside, and its generally best to carry a tube for ease of repair. Running tubeless isn't a matter of weight. In fact, they can be heavier setups. Most ride with it...

Let us know how it turns out!

To seat the tire bead, you can also use a compressor with a Schraeder to Presta valve attachment if you have Presta tubes. Are any of these tapes tubeless specific tapes? Try Stan's, they have a good reputation. Have any pictures of the problem areas to share? Likely not the rim. Most of my...

I have a Class 3 bike and I *may* have ridden routes that are limited to Class 1. That being said, I don't ride like a jerk and I've never been stopped nor questioned for it. But if you are mostly riding on the local rec trails with your wife, and her speeds are mostly at or below 20mph, why...

That's awesome! Glad its working out.

No insertion tool needed. I'd say you need patience and a steady hand but with your background that should be easy enough. Good luck!
