    Bike work stand

    The hydraulic is somewhat off topic. Normal people would be looking for regular, not sure why you need a $2k hydraulic for a 60 lbs bike

    Losing my mind which mid drive bike direct

    TBH I'd be looking at those crazy Bafang mid drives like the ones Frey and Luna put out

    Radcity direct drive

    Picked up the Radcity and it is a nice ride. Has pretty good pep too especially when cranking the throttle. Might bump up the speed to 25 mph in the settings and see how that goes.

    Can we have an Honest Discussion Trek Alliant vs Specialized Vado USA?

    Vado is sold at LBS was main reason. Also don't mind that Specialized is local company.

    what pannier and trunk bags or adapter hooks have you tried?

    the ortlieb panniers come with different size adapters, but if those don't fit snug some riders use electrical tape on the rack to make create a thickness that is snug. the plastic adapters work great on the racktime rack (square shape bars) on my vado

    Stay away from Racktime Baskets if you want a sturdy basket for a 28mph ebike !!

    Their website says Material: Steel/Vinyl. Is it metal with a vinyl coating? looks rusted in your pics Also says 22lbs weight limit which is pretty light weight

    Vado 3.0 vs 4.0 (U.S. market)

    Guess it depends on your size too. I weigh about 160 and the 3.0 gets up hills pretty quick, even steep ones.

    Hand signals for turning

    I'd stick to what hand signals your local dept of motor vehicles is teaching drivers

    Hand signals for turning

    Might have to do with suspension fork on mountain bikes vs hard fork on the xp

    Vado 3.0 vs 4.0 (U.S. market)

    I have the 2020 3.0 and love it. I think the price tag is great for a Class 3 bike with all the features, gets me up the hill quick. I can get about 60 miles in eco mode per charge on the 400 battery. I'm sure that 4.0 has some really nice torque though and a bigger battery.

    Belt drives

    Reise and Mueller make a bunch, pricey though

    Magnum Ui6 vs Metro ?

    One thing i noticed with the Ui6 is that the motor cut off is only on the left brake, seems to limit the ability to use one hand driving for hand signals or other things.

    Don't charge your bike battery above 80% and don't ride below 20%. Maybe, maybe not.

    I actually want my 400 battery to wear out so i can justify upgrading to 600 😂

    Damn Shame About Faraday

    You can most likely get the battery rebuit at FTH Power for a great price and if worse comes to worse can switch out the motor and controller for a better one. The integrated battery is the best piece of the design
