    2019–2020 R&M Homage : Riders' Impressions

    What a small world. My wife Marji's family (Carlson) is originally from West Hartford. I spent many a holiday at her grandparents home on "The Boulevard". To make it a little smaller I recently biked down Bebbington Road and turned up Bebbington Lane bordering 2 sides of that Joshua Trust land...

    That’s an impressive fleet of bikes. I’m hoping to convince my wife that she needs an upgrade too. She's not opposed to the idea but wants to ride my Homage a bit first. She’s the show me type. ?

    2019–2020 R&M Homage : Riders' Impressions

    Thanks Alaskan, I’ll definitely keep those tires on my list of possible changes for the new bike. My first inclination had been to have them switched immediately but then I decided to try the R&M set up. They have designed what seems to be the perfect mixed use bike for the riding opportunities...

    2019 Homage Noisy Frame/Swing Arm Issue

    The real measure of customer service is what happens after the sale, when problems occur. No matter how much one pays no machine is perfect and no user is perfect. I know, I make and sell a type of machine. I treat all my customers’ problems as my problems, whatever the cause. I expect and...

    2019 Homage Noisy Frame/Swing Arm Issue

    Thank you for the follow up. My Homage delivery was originally set for the first week of June but delayed until the 3rd week at the last minute. It is now waiting in customs. Hopefully next week a squeak free bike will arrive. I’d rather the delay now to get everything perfect rather than...

    Charging iPhone while riding via USB port on Kiox

    At some point in the forums Court detailed what parts he used to assemble his cable to attach his iPhone to an intuvia display. I’m sorry I don’t have the link but I did save the part list in my Amazon wish list. I haven’t tried it yet. My Homage won’t arrive for another week or so...

    Since we started riding e-bikes about a year ago we have "discovered" numerous beautiful and charming roads and views all within a 30 mile radius of where we have lived most of our lives. We pick routes on the smallest hilliest roads we can find using USGS topographical maps. The roads I avoided...

    The rain finally stopped long enough for a bike ride. Even without sun the Mountain Laurel is spectacular this year. This is the Yale Forest in Union, Connecticut. Along some roads the forest is filled with flowers.

    Thank you for the detailed review and updates. Does the fender rub the tire? Delivery of my Homage has been delayed 2 weeks for a paint blemish but I hope to be riding it in July. R&M requires patience....

    Riese Muller Delite Rohloff GX HS

    I ordered a Homage GX Rohloff from a local dealer in April. It was scheduled to be made the first week of June. Today the site updated to say it would be made next week. I spoke to the dealer who called Germany. They assured him the bike had been made but a paint blemish was discovered in the...
