    Sit Bone Width Relative to Optimal Saddle Selection

    I wanted to share my recent experience and insights about saddle selection after a disappointing first attempt at picking what I hoped would be a more comfortable option. I would be interested in hearing how this might relate to your own experiences. I am riding a Gazelle, Ultimate T10+ which...

    SR Suntour Suspension Fork Maintenance

    I was totally surprised as well. I will probably do a rebuild at some point due to my OCD but not at 100 hours.

    SR Suntour Suspension Fork Maintenance

    have a new Gazelle Ultimate T10+ bike that came equipped with Suntour Mobie 45 coil spring suspension fork with 80 mm of travel. I was curious what the required maintenance interval is for this suspension fork, so I looked that and found the information posted below. If anyone is curious, you...

    Gazelle Bike Bell Attaching Ring

    I also have a gazelle bike. I love the bike but I am not that impressed with the bell. At best it is a $10 bell. If you still want to try to use the bell that came with your bike, it would probably take some trial and error at the hardware store to find a suitable o-ring to secure it to your...

    Does anyone check all bike's bearings on initial assembly?

    I am going through my new bike and also found that my Shimano Deore hubs have conventional bearings and are setup too tight. I plan to check the lube and adjust those but will need a tool to remove the Centerlock rotors. I am a little surprised that Shimano is still not using sealed bearings...

    Trying to decide on my first ebike

    It would be helpful to know more about what your goals are. What kind of riding will you be doing? What types of road surfaces? Are you wanting a more upright position or something more sporty?

    Trying to decide on my first ebike

    I would recommend that you look at bikes that can be supported locally. It sounds like you do not have a need for a fat tire bike. There are some good discounts available on bikes such as Trek and others. I have limited personal experience with Mokwheel but my son did. The bike is very heavy...

    Stronger headlight ?

    I too am looking to increase my headlight output. My Gazelle headlight has a rated output of 50 lumens. I already have a Cygolite Expilion 680 with self contained battery. This light has been flawless for several years but unfortunately, the mount will not work on my handlebar. I solved a...

    New Ergon Grip to be Released Spring 2024

    I am not suggesting that these are better than the SQLab grips in any way. I posted these in case others might be interested. If I were to purchase different grips I am still most interested in the 710 product.

    New Ergon Grip to be Released Spring 2024

    I can only guess how each hand position will work. The Ergon site describes the positions as follows: "The following hand positions can be utilized: Standard grip position, outside grip position, thumb up or palm position." Seems like standard grip and palm position would be very similar. I...

    New Ergon Grip to be Released Spring 2024

    I noticed this new Grip GT-1 with a planned release in the spring of 2024. Shows some similarities to the SQLab 710 grips. https://www.ergonbike.com/en/article-neuheiten-2024

    Is this company legit

    @AvalanceRun - Perfect response! There is so much abuse and fraud on the Internet. My instincts have kept me safe so far. For this website under discussion, I am a hard pass.

    Is this company legit

    This does not look like a website I would want to buy products from. Is there something in particular you're looking for?

    Negotiations on price

    I agree that it is generally important to not ask for a discount until ready to commit. Certainly ok if the shop offers a discount on their own.

    I have been very impressed with Gazelle bikes. I purchased a medium frame Gazelle Ultimate T10+ from Upway but have not been able to use it yet. The deal was too good to pass up and Upway's inventory on the bike was limited. Technically I fit into the large frame but after a lot of research I...

    Thanks so much your reply. Those innerbarends and 710 grips do look comfortable.

    Ergonomic adjustment / suspension stem for Gazelle bike?

    I found this discussion today and found it interesting. After reading Stefan Mike's post and looking at his pictures, I was curious if the SQLab 710 grips are compatible with Bar End mirrors such as Mirrycle units. From this picture, it sure looks like they would be. If not Mirrycle mirrors...

    Negotiations on price

    Both my girlfriend and I purchased ebikes in December, 2023. Both Gazelle bikes. The bikes were already discounted by Gazelle about $1000 off msrp however the LBS offered an additional 10% off her bike. They would have done that on my bike as well but I ended up buying from Upway. Upway was...

    Chain length dilemma: Who to believe?

    See this eBay sale: eBay sale "SRAM PC EX1 10 Speed or Electric Bike 8 speed Chain 144 Links with PowerLock" This title seems to suggest that there is a difference if the bike is an EBike. Can this be or is this poorly worded?
