Ah, thanks for the quick reply. I think I remember hearing that squealing in Court's video review. Twice around the block is not much of a test, but the Shimano brakes seemed properly quiet.

I picked it up Saturday and am feeling very good about things, even though it's turned cold enough that I've not done much more than ride around the block (and a foot of snow is supposed to come down Tuesday...sigh). I'm keeping content moving my rack from my old bike and online shopping for...

The Turbos seem to be moving out to make room for the Vados (trying to justify Turbo information in a Vado thread). I just went in an ordered a Turbo X. Last Friday my dealer said they had 10 Turbo X's in the warehouse (East coast); today they were down to 5. Well, 4 now. Delivery is slated for...

I don't yet have bike battery experience to draw on, but I leased an all-electric car for 3 years (Nissan Leaf). There was about a 20% hit on range for those batteries in our relatively mild winters in southern Pennsylvania...so I'm not surprised by your report. If we ever had days in the single...

I used to wear a helmet about 25% of the time I would go riding. One day I wasn't paying quite as much attention to where I was going as I should have, and my front wheel slipped off the edge of a paved road with no shoulder. I reflexively turned back to the road, but the 2-inch dropoff caused...

Just came across this thread...we received our Copenhagen a wheel about 3 weeks ago (I think I put the order in 3 years ago, but Kickstarter has taught me to be patient with startups). We put it on my wife's TerraTrike, which has a standard 26" rear wheel. We got the trike a year or two ago...
