As far as cars, I believe originally SUV referred to body on frame construction, like pickups and light commercial vehicles, combined with a 'station wagon' body type. Typically 4wd, but could be rwd just like pickups. It combined the ability of a truck( towing, off road) with the comforts of...

Thank you for posting your actual experience with them, instead of just calling them sketchy. I have over 7000 miles on a set of JWs and find their handling very predictable and consistent across a range of surfaces and conditions. Yeah, I don't corner as tightly at speed as I used to on my...

You're supposed to ride around in circles to even out the wear

Pro tip: if you have mtb pedals with metal pins don't get lazy and hold them with your bare hand while trying to loosen the crank so you can clean the chain ring. My shins and calves are used to the occasional minor wound, but the hole in the palm of my hand really sucked!

Point No Point (and points beyond) Well since I could count on 1 hand the number of rides that didn't start or end at work so far this year. I decided to wear cycling clothes under my church clothes so I wouldn't need to go home after church and guilt myself into yardwork and all the other...

A couple weeks ago I got passed in the bike lane by a guy clicked into SPD pedals on an Ariel Ryder x class, one of those 1000 watt moped style bikes. I was going about 26.5mph so he was probably doing over 30mph and pedaling the whole time. Maybe he was trying to make up for the fact that seat...

Yeah, my son lost at least 1 or 2 winter coats and rainjackets per year. We would ask him to check L&F and then end up replacing stuff anyways. Usually we would find them in the spring because the school always sets everything out at the spring concerts and artwalks. Nothing to do at that...

The Decathlon system cadence range of 40 to 90 seems a little low. Between that and the 265% range it's probably only good for city commuting or maybe for the flatlanders among us. Still, the price seems ok @ £2500 - about the same as a $500 fat folder with a SRAM XX sl Transmission groupset...

Lost and Found.

Some picks from Saturday's bonus ride. Had an unexpected 2 hours to kill on the eastside so spent it exploring a few roads and trails. Had to take it slow since I didn't have any batteries charged above 25% -but still got about 50k in. A little easy single track along the Tolt River Then...

So? Specialized has left people waiting over a year for a Vado SL 1.2 https://forums.electricbikereview.com/threads/should-i-buy-a-vado-sl-or-wait-for-the-release-of-the-version-with-the-1-2-motor.53122/ Besides Yamaha Giant puts some combination of Panasonic/Bafang on their hub drive bikes...

It's pretty close to the largest Homage frame. But yeah, if OP is used to a small or medium it's gonna be kind of big. Some of the reviews have also said it is closer to a mid-step than a low step or step through. Hopefully OP's knees are good with that. FWIW, Frey was very open to upgrading...

I haven't added much lately as my riding is 90%+ commuting these days. Thought I'd put down some numbers from this work week's riding: 4/0 - Number of days biking vs driving to work (Monday was a holiday) 2 - Number of street cleaners seen cleaning bike lanes! 1 - Number of people passed out...

Neither snow nor rain nor heat nor protected bike lane stays these couriers from the swift completion of their appointed rounds.

Worth mentioning that the PL Sport is a gen3 drive unit that has 65nm as a system2 motor but miraculously has 75nm when on a smart system bike. Your gen4 Speed motor launched as a 75nm drive unit that quickly got upgraded to 85nm via firmware update after competitors released more powerful...

Yup, he's a Scotsman!

I think the point is that a well designed system is likely to have a programmable cut-off(by the OEM not end user). So the assistance is set to cut off ABOVE the safe range and the last few % is reserved for your lights and e-shifting to allow you to pedal home safely. The cut-off on lawn...
