    Does Anyone have experience using a suspension seat post with a sprung saddle?

    I also use a Thudbuster with a Brooks B67 Saddle... Love the combo, but still need to take a butt break about every 10 miles or so to get rid of the tuning fork feeling in my neathers. :cool: I have about 800 to 900/miles on my Brookes so I am sure it's broken in. Sometimes it is minor...

    Yet another "Careful of DOST Bikes" warning

    Hey Dorothy... Just saw this review on the Dost Facebook page from 3 days ago. We bought a Kope and a Drop about a year ago. Just made appointments online to go up to the showroom in the Vancouver area for a tune up. Received email confirmations, reminders, etc. Today we drove up from...

    Yet another "Careful of DOST Bikes" warning

    Yeah, I read just about everything about Dost that I could find and none of it sounds good. 3 months without word of any kind is unacceptable... I hope you get some resolution and get your $4000.00 back soon. Also, have you tried calling them from a different number? They could have your primary...

    Yet another "Careful of DOST Bikes" warning

    I was just at my LBS that sold me my Dost Kope Chain. I asked them what the deal was with Dost and why they were being so evasive. As I stated before... he said they closed down for almost 3 weeks due to COVID-19, which I didn't know closing your business was still a thing. Also, he said they...

    Are mid drives just naturally less zippy than hub motors?

    Wow... that sounds gruesome. I'm going to look for it on You/Tube

    Winter Sucks

    Holy cow... that is some really serious dedication. I hang it up at around 45,degF, and that's if there is no serious wind to contend with. Riding while there is any snow or ice is a big NO for me. After a bad spill I had last year, i don't care to repete it again.

    Winter Sucks

    Okay... Now I'm going to have to read it... Winter is setting in, 1st snow we just had was about 3". Way too early for this crap, so lots of time to read.

    Rocks Grinding sound in my Bafang 750 hub

    I have several e-bikes, one of which is a Magnum Metro 750. The bike had just under 800 miles on it when it started to sound like I had gravel grinding in the motor, and then it would just die. I would let it sit for about 10 minutes and then it would be fine for a short time until it did it...

    Being Thankful

    So much to be thankful for... Great Family and healthy Grandkids. Was able to retire... don't have a lot but I have enough. My big reward to myself was being able to purchase 3 new E-bikes, and taking the entire family on vacation in the Smokey Mtns. And... I made a turkey that didn't taste like...

    Does anyone suffer from battery range anxiety like people do with electric vehicles?

    I am getting anywhere from 35 to 40 miles I can put on my e-bike before I am in trouble. However, like a lot of you have been saying, it's my butt and/or knees that tell me different. My longest ride has been around 30 miles and it is usually one of those two issues that make me stop. I did...

    65mph Himiway step through fatbike.

    Damn... I get nervous if I get up to 25mph. I guess I am getting old enough to realize a fall at that speed and at my age would hurt like hell. I fell once at an R/R crossing, only going about 10mph, and got hurt badly enough that I don't want a repeat of that anytime soon.

    Don’t do Dost

    I am worried about my warranty...or lack thereof. Hoping if needed my LBS does right by me. In your case, I hope you get this resolved soon. Please keep us posted as to your outcome.

    Don’t do Dost

    Don't know what part of the country you live in, but my LBS, is just outside of the Cleveland Oh area. (I live in Cleveland) - he was supposed to get 5 CVTs this month, I don't know if they came in or not. He did tell me Dost said they weren't going to start shipping any of the new CVT bikes...

    Don’t do Dost

    No... If I misled I apologize, let me clarify a few things. I purchased my bike from a local Dost dealer, not directly from the manufacturer. Before I made the purchase of the bike, I talked to them (Henry) a few times... so it was about 6 weeks ago now. At 1st, I left a message saying I was...

    Don’t do Dost

    I am so sorry about your dealings (or lack thereof) with Dost. I did end up purchasing the Kope Chain version, it went on sale for 500.00 off for just a week so I purchased one. I have been researching them for several months and found myself always coming back to them for comparison. However...

    Micro-Shock From Shifter???

    This is so weird... I called the LBS today just to ask a few questions about the stinging sensation I was feeling while I was riding, just to see if anyone else was reporting the same issue. One of the 1st things he asked was "Were you riding under any High Power Lines"? My answer was yes... the...
