Jimmy I think you have the mounting plate on backwards. The plates recessed holes should go over the bottle cage mounts so that the plate sets flush with the frame. See this in the video at about 6:20 in...

Oh thanks you got me looking at the Black 6061 again PSm :D . But now looking closer, I see it is a fixie with a flip flop option to make it a single speed. You can add the free wheel option for 20 bucks. In the picture it doesn't have brakes but in the description it says rim brakes. The...

PSM, after I go to the gym I usually jump on the Sauce for a 4-6 mile cardio ride. So today I did that and then followed it up with the same route on my regular Roadster. Here's my input: 1. This was really the 1st time out on the Sauce with the 650/42's vs the 27.5/2.25" tires. BIG...

Ditto to you on I wanting a SS analog. Getting under 20# is a little challenge. Low 20's a little easier. Fuji Featherweight at 22#'s I believe, 3 Priority's (Ace Spades - 22#, Ace Clubs - 24#'s and the Sauce - 25#'s, all belt drives) and Fairdale, in addition to Taj, has the Express - ? on...

Or fendee1 if you don't want buy the strap/cog tool, just take the 2 wheels to your LBS. They'll have those tools. Should cost you less than 20 bucks to remove the cog off the old wheel and put it back on the new one. I did this when I went to the 24 tooth on the gravel. But since I also...

He has the regular Roadster which has the TopTrans belt.

How long have you had the bike and have you reached out to Ride1Up? They also have a lot of information and torque specs on their site. It kind of looks like your chain ring is off. Bent crank spindle?

Would be really interested in your impressions of your brake system swap out. To me the OEM gravel brakes are pretty weak.

Very happy. You'll love it I believe. I have both the original Roadster and the Gravel. For just jumping on one of them for a quick 6 mile ride or on paved bikeways/streets/roads I do prefer the Roadster. But the Gravel got the extender battery and the gravel is better on gravel/hard pack...

Jim5099, it may also be as simple as the main battery is not charged. Have you tried charging the V2 from the bikes charge port, with the extender off the bike? BTW and you may already be aware of this, but Ride1Up has good information on their site specific to each of their ebikes. Includes...

And the Gravel is $1045. Edit: $1045 for the 52cm and $1095 for the 58cm. BTW I have both the V2 and the Gravel (52cm) and the gravel standover is taller and weights a couple #'s more. Like the gravel and REALLY LIKE the V2.

600X or maybe the 600? And saved a few bucks doing it now.

You (we) are up late. If you're in the Corvallis area, Corvallis Ebikes carries Aventon and has a working relationship with Ride1Up. Great shop and Jeff can be a reliable source of info on the two brands/bikes. I have a couple of Ride1Up's single speeds and they have been good to deal with. I...

Here you go - don't know why they're loading this way, but you get the idea. My neighbor did have skipping on his original Roadster. So far not on this one. I have not had that issue on either the regular Roadster or the gravel and I ride some pretty good grades (though not to PSm's...

Sure on photo. Might take a bit - they wander around a lot.

My neighbor very recently got a new regular Roadster (his 1st one was stolen) and the new one has the snubber on it.

Per Jenson, they're saying a 24 rear cog. So yes a slightly lower gear ratio/inches than the Apollo (46/24 vs 52/26). That # does match up to the 113 tooth count of the belt. But Spot could tell you. If you decide on one of the three, I look forward to your thoughts. All three are solid.

FWIW, if your looking at a "regular" bike maybe here is an option to the Priority 600 - Spot Acme. Actually on sale now ($400 0ff). Nothing wrong with the 600 (I'm a fan of Priority bikes and their Apollo is on my short list). But the Acme, while it doesn't have the Pinion, it is belt driven...

Model number 91107.

Nope.
