According to the Schwalbe website either the 17 or 19 inner tube can be used with the Marathon Plus HS440. http://www.schwalbetires.com/bike_tires/road_tires/Marathon_Plus_HS440 I choose the 19 because it is a heavier tube and I'm more concerned with flat protection verses inner tube weight. I...

I happened across this Technical Bulletin for the Dash Bottom Bracket and thought it might be of interest to the group. https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B96dkFgH-zxuTEd2b2NoNXNxeWM/edit?pli=1

Thanks, Ravi, This is a great link. I'm going to have a lot of fun searching this website and learning about electric bike component technology.

Well, I had my first Dash flat yesterday! So, I ordered my 2014 Schwalbe Marathon Plus HS440 47-622 tires today. Also, I ordered Schwalbe AV19 inner tubes because I'm switching to Schraeder type valves. I'm doing that because I want to use Ride-On Tire Sealant for bicycles. I use Ride-On in the...

Very scary!!!! I thought these direct drive motor were supposed to be dependable. And with a failure like this you probably can't even pedal home with the electrics shut off.

Whoops, I didn't even pay attention to the price. I was too fascinated with the video with the tires looking so space age like. Perhaps the Hutchinson serenity tires are the best way to go. Sometimes it's just fun being the skeptic. I hope someone gets the Hutchinson serenity tires and posts...

Just google "airless bicycle inner tubes" and you will be amazed at how many airless products are out there.

Here's a tire I wouldn't mind trying ERW - Airless Bicycle Tires Kind of like the moon tires NASA used.

I'm really curious how this foam tube is any different than the foam tubes that they've tried for years. This is not a new idea. Perhaps it's a lighter foam than previously tried. Even walmart sells a airless bicycle tube http://www.walmart.com/ip/Bell-26-SOLID-NOMORFLAT/4805939#Specifications

And you can get a used Hutchinson Serenity No Flat Tire (Black, 700 x 35c) for only $14.30

If there is one thing I learned in my 64 years is not to take life too seriously. Relax and don't fret about all these little problems.

Apparently, these new model electric bikes from Currie are not without problems. Just yesterday I was reading about Path+ problems over at Endless-sphere. And Cellwhale is having problems with his Dash as well. Hopefully, Currie will straighten out some of these issues. Those brake sensors are...

I certainly hope they get your Dash fixed real soon. I would be interested to hear what the problem was once they find it. Good luck!

Excellent review. I started off thinking about the Path+, but then when the Dash was recommended to me, I went with that. I briefly thought about the Peak, but since I don't do off road biking, I didn't give it much thought. But, it was great reading your comparison between the two bikes.

I noticed yesterday that at times the motor seems to cut in and out repeatedly in the pedal assist mode. I thought at the time that maybe that was normal operation. However, on my ride today I didn't notice the motor cutting in and out as I did yesterday. Maybe I have the same problem as you...

Rusty explains the Dash operation very well. I just got back from my ride today where I rode a few miles with no throttle in the throttle mode (zero assist). I found the bike to be easy to pedal to 18 mph on the flats and with the lower gears I easily climbed up three moderate hills with no...

It would be very interesting to hear about what problems you are having with your pedal assist.

Without a parts list it's hard to know if connectors are compatible. Why not carry a spare Dash battery on your rear rack and when the battery runs low, just exchange the batteries out?

For tools: I just bought some Slime 23042 Presta to Schrader Valve Adapters and it makes these presta valves so much easier to pump up and to read tire pressure. My all time favorite tool is Topeak Alien II 26-Function Bicycle Tool. I have the older version and I used it to install most of my...

For the Gaadi tube, here is one source. http://www.xxcycle.com/mtb-hybrid-tube-and-gaadi,en.php I bought my suspension seatpost from xxcycle in France and I rate them 5 stars for fast shipping and great prices. I seems like a pretty good idea to have a tube like this. For me, I've changed so...
