    Advice needed: Eggrider vs. mid drive motor?

    It's a double-sided kickstand, much like the ones cargo bikes use. It can lift the entire rear wheel off the ground. I've no idea if it interferes with the pedal rotation. But I'd honestly take that over the single rear-mounted one I have on my bike.

    Advice needed: Eggrider vs. mid drive motor?

    I've been recommending this a lot because it's such a good value w/ so many practical uses, but check out the CTY e2.2. Shimano middrive w/ 60Nm of torque, rear rack that can take 59 pounds, front suspension, hydro brakes, integrated lights and one of the largest and best dealership experiences...

    Tuning Class 3 Civante

    Yes. It's unlimited assist now. I usually don’t ride very fast but I've gotten it to ~38MPH on a very slight downhill and could still feel motor assist. I don't have much flatland around me so the SpeedBox is really only useful to me about 15% of my commute but I'm moving to a slightly less...

    Tuning Class 3 Civante

    I can confirm that SpeedBox 2.0 for Urban Rush works with my...Urban Rush. So if you want to "downgrade" to a UR to get unlocked assist speeds, that's an option. And your spare battery and other upgrades will transfer right over.

    HELP!! Derestricting the 2019/20 Yamaha Crosscore.

    Some of the tuners are very specific to the combination of display + motor. Even then, there’s firmware differences between models so that adds another complication. It took a year for SpeedBox to offer an Urban Rush specific tuner after I reported that SpeedBox 2.0 didn’t work for my application.

    Road biker looking for a fun ebike for around town

    CTY e2.2 checks almost all your boxes. I believe there’s a tuner for this system to unlock unlimited assist speed. And REI is a huge LBS that has excellent support if needed.

    Took the kids out to our usual spot on the coast. Nice and clean air until the wildfire smoke comes back.

    Redshift Arclight automatic multi mode lights

    It’s on Kickstarter now. I really do like the idea but the actual pedal is very commuter and isn’t as aggressive as I’d like. I love having replaceable pins for mixed use riding.

    Redshift Arclight automatic multi mode lights

    Saw this in an email a few days ago. It’s looking really good for those of us that commute or often ride in the dark.

    HipLok AirLok

    Looks to be a very niche product. What are your uses for it? Is this for use in a shared residence or a parking area that the public can access?

    Is there an eyelet for a rear rack

    Yup. Have to drop the motor to get to the wiring harness. It’s not that difficult with the correct tools but it’s time consuming to do it correctly. You can see how it’s done in this video for a SpeedBox install. I had to loosen the chainrings on my Urban Rush, too.

    Is there an eyelet for a rear rack

    That’s correct. Most racks I’ve installed come with a few lengths of bolts. Sometimes they work, sometimes you have to go to the hardware store to get the one that fits best.

    How many gears do you really need & use?

    I immediately looked for your location. I think you’re in the Bay Area, too? I like big range just like you do. I use all the gearing on my bike. Luckily I have a 50/34 chainring mated to an 11/32 cassette.

    Papa and daughter time! Unfortunately there’s so many wildfires burning north of us but the breeze and fog on the coast is keeping our air clean enough for our rides.

    I think replied to you on Reddit. You’re going to need an OEM battery.

    Just received my Device Therapy Bike Mount & Reflector for Apple AirTag and I'm really Impressed.

    I have the same scooter. But I placed mine inside the stem. Signal is still good. 👍🏽

    garmin varia is excellent

    This is nice to see from an actual aviator. I only play aviator when I put my Ray-Bans on. Half my commute is in an urban environment. I've seen questions like "with so many cars in city streets, isn't that going to get annoying?" I think Garmin programmed it really well so that it only...
