    Will Boomerang V2 Cyclo Trac ever come back? It looked promising.

    Forgive my presumption @Cheetah, but it sounds like you are nearing-in on the consumer discomfort threshold for further inquiries: "If this does not answer your question and you have an urgent need, please email [email protected]" Kevin or Josey: 1-480-727-9800 I show a 2-pack listing...

    Will Boomerang V2 Cyclo Trac ever come back? It looked promising.

    For my purposes, I like that the would-be thieves will see the red LED warning strobe telling them it's armed like a car alarm. Rational thieves would then be encouraged to select an easier target from the rack. I receive a realtime phone alert if any trouble is in progress outside, before...

    Will Boomerang V2 Cyclo Trac ever come back? It looked promising.

    TBH...my preorders were so long ago they weren't at full sticker price, so that prob makes sense. They'll get to us.

    Volta MIA

    What ever happened to the Volta? Did that come and go, or is it still to release? It looked cool, 2hr charge, nimble 37lbs, 40 mi range, belt drive, integrated lights/brake light, brake regen, GPS alarm, app...etc. Volta Promo Vid

    Ebikes prohibited on ferries

    It may well be a restriction at your chosen destination if you are ferrying to one of the surrounding islands that are either State or National Park Areas. Each have different attitudes on ebikes/regular bikes/pets, and each with internal bureaucracy moving at different speeds. Even the ebike...

    Ford Th!nk Bikes

    The Ford Th!nk programs 1991-2011, were sadly too early to be commercially viable. The Th!nk bikes were maybe circa 2000. The Th!nk NEV, I believe 2002-2007. Very minimalist and future-forward aesthetic with some front end water-proofing issues. They are somewhat collector in the NEV sector...

    Poor parking job by ebiker

    I don't know...in fairness, there are no other bikes around, and it appears to be later than normal commuter traffic hours. There's room for 3 more bikes - one on the other side, 1 at either end, and even a 4th if someone wanted to entomb this faux-Specialized in the middle (and teach them a...

    Ebikes prohibited on ferries

    You know, I remember when skiers were passionately outspoken about how snowboarders were going to wreck the mountains and were to be barred from the chairlifts, since all the lines would be cut by these savage rogues, and we'd all be smoking pot. Look at us now.

    Known Issues & Problems with Qualisports Products + Help, Solutions & Fixes

    Just a quick community advisory that the plastic frame cushion/washer on the clamp side of the seat post quick release is made from inferior plastic and may disintegrate in the short term. If this happens to you in the field, without a 4mm allen handy, the clamp can be opened and the nut side...

    eBike Robberies and security Problems

    Why even bother then? Forgive me, but it's like the folks that pay thousands installing home alarm systems, with monthly monitoring, when they've sticky-noted the defeat pass code to the inside of the key punch pad inside the front door. Is that genius, or something else?

    Controller Modification for more speed?

    Please beware of my own misadventure with "light bar" bike mods here. In my case, my eagerness exceeded my knowledge of electricity. I needed the converter before I blew out the sacrificial resister in the controller. @Customstockz has a custom light thread for his Rad Mini here which is...

    eBike Robberies and security Problems

    Hehe, yes @FlatSix911 that remote and the battery health are important. I have a journaled reminder in my phone to change the batteries before 6 mos. My only beef so far is that the arming/disarming shouldn't need to be the same obnoxiously loud dB volume as the actual freakout alarm. I find...

    Controller Modification for more speed?

    @Tinker I ordered KT-LCD8H from pswpower on ebay last December (I think they might be sold out right now). Wherever you do source one, double check to make sure it's the version that comes with the USB charge port, lots of cable, and the "non-waterproof" KT controller box harness (ie. not the...

    eBike Robberies and security Problems

    @bikeman242 have a look at these too. I've got one zip-tied under my saddle...they're cheap, loud, and conspicuous. If anyone bumps, moves your bike, or begins to start working on defeating your lock, it'll be unambiguously telling everyone in earshot (at 113dB) that something's definitely...

    Anyone else's quali dolphin have 85-100 psi printed on rear

    Alas @bui3 it's not a misprint. These are not the 20" BMX ramp tires we knew as kids. For comps, the Schwalbe 20 x1.35 ebike tires have a suggested fill of 65-95psi. Use your operational judgement based on the conditions of where you live and ride. I do run mine on the very soft side...

    Controller Modification for more speed?

    Thanks for the kind feedback @Tinker I will say, peddling is very comfortable with the 11t at 25mph and power assist 5. When there's no bike lane, I find it's much safer riding closer to the speed of traffic. Vehicles aren't feeling you are an obstruction to overcome anymore. They aren't...
