    It would be a good idea to determine that the Tesla installation is suitable for e-bikes. Particularly is it capable of e-bike weight, and especially, if its clamps are compatible with your frame and tires with fenders?

    Bosch Kiox Upgrade:- Suggestions and Improvements

    Thanks again, dblhelix, for your reply and suggestions. This subject (gear indication on the display) is getting complicated--too much uncertainty. I think it's best to drop back three paces and punt. Next I should, as E14Delite has suggested, see if my dealer can re-program my Intuvia...

    Bosch Kiox Upgrade:- Suggestions and Improvements

    Thank you, dblhelix, for the tips. First, it's good to hear that there is some display that tells what gear I'm in among the 14! I would like to get the new Nyon but it doesn't seem available yet. Any thoughts about how to find one?

    Bosch Kiox Upgrade:- Suggestions and Improvements

    I have a Delite with Rohloff. Intuvia display. There is no indication of which gear I am in, except for a flashing number AFTER changing gear--that number then disappears, often before I get a look at it. Is there a display available that shows the gear selection always ON?

    Stefan, thanks for the recent "lessons" about photography with bicycles. You have included in your notes much useful information. I like hearing your introduction of the FZ100 camera. I have gone through several pocketable digital cameras through the years (first one, Canon G1). Each contained...

    Shakedown Cruise Yesterday’s adventures were: 1. Get back on my bike after many months of not able to use it; find out if I retained fitness enough to make a ride. 2. Try out my companion’s brand new Riese and Muller Vario as first time transition from her e-trike. She had not ridden this...

    Jabberwocky, that does indeed look like a great ride... any day when the weather is good. I have some questions about it--may I send you an e-mail? [email protected]

    If you accept that the country needs military preparedness, consider the corresponding need for proficiency in using its weapons. As a former fighter pilot (Navy) I assure you that FLYING the planes is necessary for the pilots and support personnel to maintain proficiency and combat readiness...

    Airplanes galore! My Gazelle Aroyo and a friend's e-trike rest in the foreground this morning as six F-16 Falcon and six F/A-18 Hornet fighters fly by hospitals in the Washington DC area. The Navy Blue Angels and Air Force Thunderbirds are on a multi-city tour in a salute to front-line...

    You are indeed ready to ride... far and wide. Thanks for the inspiring travelog that I forwarded to friends who should know about riding in your county roads.

    E-bike recommendation: full suspension and belt drive?

    "I was originally thinking about getting a Charger before the release of the 2020 Delite ..." ________________________________________________________________________________ Hello, E14Delite. Your account reassures and cheers me. My machine ON ORDER is exactly like yours. My only test ride...

    pennybags brought up a topic of concern, asking the forum about it. He received replies that took issue with him. He then explained his points further. To me this exchange was polite expression of viewpoints in pertinent discussion. I personally learned from it . I came away with an increased...

    Obligatory story: Here goes. It's a long one (naturally). Thanks for the vicarious experience in riding -- my machine has been in the shop waiting for parts for two months, so it's good to read at least of your adventures.

    Latest News from Riese & Müller

    I live in Bethesda. If you are interested in riding with a group of casual riders in the whole metropolitan area, I can recommend two non-organizations that ride on selected week-days. Both include several e-bikers. We go mostly on trails but sometimes divert on quiet roadways or city streets as...

    It's surprising that you have seen two Charger 3s, bikes that R&M just released on February 1. Where was this? I had one on order when my dealer (ElectriCitybikes) looked into getting me a Charger with Rohloff. He checked and found it possible to put in an order before the release date. Color...

    Riese & Müller Over kill ?

    Good advice, no doubt. I have been actively riding an excellent e-bike for over two years. My dealer has been quick to offer me trials of more competent bikes. I WAS surprised by what I learned. Those trials are what caused me to want ("need") an advanced Delite. The ol' worm-on-a-hook wth...

    Riese & Müller Over kill ?

    Well, JayVee, your description of the Cube setup sounds just what nicely fits your needs for an e-bike. Price seems quite reasonable too. I have to go a more expensive route to get what I want. The R&M Delight is expensive yet has a package of features that are just right for my "wants" if not...
