Thank you for that post. Is there anyplace that you can complain too? Who enforces it? So no E-Bike Class restriction either it’s an all out Ban.

I think with any stand you have to figure a way to work SAFE with it. I’ve always wanted to have a Park Professional Stand like I used in all of the bike shops I’ve ever worked at, but the issue for me is SPACE. The metal plate that these stands are attached too is over 80 lbs and it will rust...

Oh the search for the perfect saddle! That is ALWAYS a matter of personal preference but there are some good one’s out there. Myself, I see another Brooks Leather Flyer Special Saddle for my next Bike. Of course I may just swap it off from one of my existing bikes too. But my Love of Brooks...

Looks like you made the best decision for YOU and that is what counts. Going into retirement can be pretty weird for sure especially if you have a fixed income. Being that I was Military and really never had the chance to build a retirement account of my own, it shackles my spending. But, I...

Welcome Back to riding. Boy those were the days, Steel is Real….. I’ve started looking for MY E-Bike. Being 66 does have it’s limits to what I want and need also but I am looking forward to it. Vacation is coming up and I have money put away for that, so the E-Bike has to wait a month or more...

Prairie Dog, Thanks for that fine video! Gosh I’d love to try that but at my age I’ve done enough in my life. Can we assume that you were not using any PAS? I could hear the studded tires.

One thing to check is the final cable housing at the back near the derailleur. Some folks make these way too short and it causes more friction than it should. The Jag Slick Wires are really good so I doubt that it is the problem.

Hi Folks, I am retired USAF and I am getting into Fat Tire E-Bikes. One of the things I would like to do is to personalize my E-Bike with some USAF type lettering and or decals. So my real question is this: Are the Aventon logos and such Paint or Decal and if Decal are they under some sort of...

Folks, I am retired USAF and I am getting into Fat Tire E-Bikes. One of the things I would like to do is to personalize my E-Bike with some USAF type lettering and or decals. So my real question is this: Are the Bikonit logos and such Paint or Decal and if Decal are they under some sort of...

Oh so true! I run a high pressure Maxxis Hookworm tire on the front of the bike that is 2 inches wide. I LOVE having two of those on my RANS ROCKET when I had that. The VREX recumbent won’t allow that due to a brace that is in the way due to a taller tire in the 26x2.0 Maxxis tire. I was...

I am recovering from a Brain Tumor that I had removed back in 2016. I have had some issues with balance and for 2 years needed to walk with a cane to assist me. I walked more in the next few years because my Doctor and fellow cyclist wanted to make sure my plate was healed and solid. There...

Hi folks! I am a long time bicycle rider and mechanic that worked in the Industry till about 2009 and then dropped off the face of the Earth due to some Shop mis-Management. I kept all my tools and have a separate tool box that I do my “MR Rogers” deal in the neighborhood. I also pass along my...

On tires or tubes blowing out, in a Shop environment it scars you even more, especially if it does it in your hand. Back in the 90’s while working at a new shop I scared the owner and myself. What took this tube out was a cheap plastic rim strip that was very coarse at the seams. I pulled it...

Dingo, You say you are waiting on them to get back to you. I asked them a few questions and the reply I got back today about swapping parts out is this: I do change out a lot of parts to make MY bike Mine. I always go higher quality if I can. With bottom brackets on a fat tire bike we are...

Jason, I like what you have done with your bike. Nice work. Back in 2008 I bought a Gary Fisher Paragon with hydraulic disc brakes. For the first year they were fine and I liked them. The first ride that I tried the next spring I had to do the bleed thing because the bike was hung upside...
