Thanks for the chart. I have a small off grid cabin in Northern Minnesota that I need to upgrade my solar system to get enough capacity to charge two ebikes. I am thinking that I should be able to leave the batteries installed in the winter as long as I totally isolate them from any loads and...

What effect will storing lithium batteries for a few months, (disconnected from charging or load) at temperatures of 32F/0C to -25F/-32C have on the rated life of a lithium battery? (Note this is for a off grid cabin running off solar, note my bike batteries)

Thanks for posting.

Depends on State, Minnesota requires all out of State vendors over a certain size to collect state sales tax. I believe there was a Supreme Court ruling a few years ago allowing States to require this.

Interesting take on winter biking infrastructure.

I am more used to inches. But since everything else on a bicycle is listed using metric numbers, I am not sure why they list tires in inches. Better to keep everything consistent.

Attached is a link to a chart showing what size tire fits on different size rims. https://www.schwalbetires.com/tech_info/tire_dimensions

A little music to go with this tread.

I don’t have one so this is just a guess, but does it have anything to do with the nyon lock function?

Could it be your location? Does it have a clear view of the sky? I think the GPS needs to at least 4 satellites to calculate your location. Buildings or trees blocking the view of part of the sky will slow it down.

Bosch states in there manual that the motor is rated to IP54. My guess is that if you submerge or pressure wash your motor and it fails that your warranty will be void and you will be paying the repair bill yourself.

Attached is link explaining what the various IP rating mean. To know how much water protection your motor is rated for you need to find the IP rating. http://www.dsmt.com/resources/ip-rating-chart/

Brose motor rebuild. Looks like it leaked as well.

This is a video of bearing replacement on a Bosch motor. It had water damage. These motors are not waterproof. You should never submerge or pressure wash your motor. The guy in the video appears to make a living rebuilding these motors. He has at least on video rebuilding a Brose motor as well.

I test drove one yesterday at my LBS. I pick mine up on Monday!

Bulls EVO Iconic TR1 speed is an option, attached is a link to tread discussing it. They also have the E-Stream EVO 45AM. https://electricbikereview.com/forums/threads/bulls-iconic-evo-tr1-speed-2021-review.36672/

I would like to hear more on how this bike handles off road situations like lite single track or rough washboard forest roads.
