    Bosch Intuvia mount plate protection

    I apologize for the delay. I've been dealing with cancer and associated side issues for about a year and a half. The last week I've been needing extra Dr visits and test. I do own a machine shop with some really cool machines. I'll do what I can as soon as I'm capable. all the best, Mike

    Some days are just like that!

    I completely understand about days like that! Most of my customers are wonderful, a lot of them are really great. There's a few though, that make life harder than it needs to be. I'm getting better at focusing on the positive experiences, and trying to wipe away the bad experiences. Tom, I hope...

    Trek is now the U.S. market leader in e-bikes ...

    (I bought my Cannondale at a Trek store. They were very helpful and set up several bikes for me to test ride. Having local support that's halfway decent (or better) is nice. On the subject of sales, that's always interesting...... Too much bad intel in the world/on the 'net. It can be tough to...

    Shimano, Bosch vs. others

    A business has to do what makes sense for them. If they decide they don't make money or lose money taking certain actions, I understand that they might decide not to continue that practice. Better to do what one is good at, and makes money. Hopefully someone else will fill the need. IMO that's...

    Shimano, Bosch vs. others

    I didn't see him saying Trek stores don't work on Bosch. I read it as Trek doesn't want to work on the online brands of bikes, some of which use Bosch drives. I bought my Bosch powered Cannondale from a Trek store. They encouraged me to come back for a fit check, tune-up, etc. They don't do a...

    Bike hub cover?

    You might try a search for "hex nut caps" and get something close. Get extras so you have enough for the future. :)

    New E-Biker in San Diego

    I'm very sorry to be so slow in reply - somehow I missed your question. The Cannondale comes with a lock. It actually has sort of a pouch on the frame, but the rear fender bracket makes it difficult to get the lock out of it's resting place. So I'm thinking about which way to go on that...

    New E-Biker in San Diego

    Thanks very much for the welcome! I'm looking forward to building up, and riding more without assist. Many of the bikes I tested rode very nicely without power assist, the technology is great.

    Hello from Los Angeles California

    I'm sending you lots of good thoughts from San Diego. I'm also coming back from some really brutal cancer treatment. Just bought my first E-Bike yesterday. Hope you have a lot of safe and fun rides! I thought a little about a recumbent too, but always concerned about being seen. wishing you the...

    New E-Biker in San Diego

    Just chose my first E-bike, a Cannondale Contro-E Speed. I test rode several bikes before settling on this one. The people at the various Trek stores I visited were all very helpful. I tested a few bikes, the PowerFly 5, the Cross-Rip+, the police/PowerFly Speed, another I can't remember, and...
