    Zen Photon Ultra - limited version (Bafang Ultra, Rohloff Speed hub, Gates belt drive)

    My Zen with the Ultra and Rohloff have been working well. More than a few installation issues but the set up itself has been solid. 4000mi on one Rohloff / 3000mi on another. Not a long term evaluation but I'm happy to date.

    E-Gravel Bike…Looking for Advice

    I remember when playing in the rain and coming home all muddy was a badge of honor.... I believe I was twelve years old 🙃

    I never agreed with Peta until today.

    That explains it... My brother is a half_ass'd Proctologist 🙃

    Lost key D479

    There's many lock/keys for sale on ebay, Amazon and Aliexpress. You can try asking sellers if they have any D479 sets. You'll end up with an extra lock but they're not expensive. https://www.ebay.com/itm/283515937853...

    What brake pads do I buy???

    To clean up a pad I like to give them a gentle wet sand using a flat block and some 320 to 600 grit. Then spray/wipe down with isopropyl. But I think the more accepted bedding process is to come up to speed and then apply modest even pressure.. but not coming to a stop using one break and then...

    I delete screenshots right after I use them... if I'm not laminated that is. 🙃

    Lugging a Motor, Why it's Bad

    Not that some of what you say doesn't hold true but the Maxima wax is in a carrier solvent that flushes out the old lube and dirt and allows it to flow into the chain and then solidify. So I'm not sure how much if any of the previously applied wet lube remains. Also your Ultra results if not...

    best security ideas for ebike

    I concur... A hidden kill switch would be nice. My Zen battery has two prewired terminals to add such a switch whether it be a key or whatever. That said... I'm too lazy to bother 🙃 That, that said... I rarely leave my bike unattended. I take it inside the local supermarket, pharmacy, home...

    Can't Get My New Urtopia Bike to Work

    Curious... Can the bike be riden away without power? Or does it also implement some type of mechanical lockout? A thief will take the bike and worry about making it work afterwards.. especially if he's unaware of the particulars here.

    Can't Get My New Urtopia Bike to Work

    I'm all for tech... but I also don't like it forced on me. Not that I would ever buy this particular bike anyway but requiring a phone to use your bike is nothing I'd be interested in. In this age of brazen crime.. a savvy thief will know he needs to steal my phone as well. Though it'll...

    Lugging a Motor, Why it's Bad

    What I would do sometimes is use walk mode... it's a steady predictable rate and much easier on my knees than pedaling.

    Rockshox Monarch RL... Doesn't fully extend?

    ... think of this. Even if you end up with the shock under negative pressure on assembly. You should be able to exercise the shock thru full motion and it should equalize. Just like when you pressurize it to proper sag and then exercise thru full motion to equalize the chambers.
