Why not?

My bilateral cataract surgery is sked for Mar 9 and I'm going with distant vision lenses so, for the first time in my life, I have choices in sunglasses other than cheap clip-ons or expensive prescription ones. I know I want polarized, thinking about photochromic as well but I have questions...

David I sure wish we could transplant the folks responsible for your wonderful paths to Denver.

40.6m, 981 ft climb, celebrating one month sober. The headwind (20+mph, gust to 35) from the SW made the trip out and the climb a bear but the trip down was a blast! Used 5.5v going out, only 2 coming home. The dog, known by most as Disco Dog, is one of Denver's 1% art projects that requires...

I've seen one radar gun site on Denver's most popular multi-use path, Cherry Creek, but only after a horrendous head-on crash last year. There was no indication of any concern other than speed.

I'm on a Magnum Metro with the battery partially integrated into downtube, limited room for top cover without going over both tubes. I've thought about insulating it but the logistics and the look both put me off. I've ridden in 35F here (Colorado), see some range reduction but frankly snow and...

Saw an electric blue one of these cruising around Sloan's Lake Christmas Eve, good looking bike. They are local to Denver, seem to offer reasonable selection including choices of batteries. https://fattebikes.com

40 miles for Christmas, down to Chatfield Reservoir and home. It was ca 48 going out but a front blew thru shortly after heading home, dropped temp 10 degrees and added 18-20 mph headwinds. Battery down to 46v from full, about a 30% reduction in range.

Foldylock for frame, Hexlox for front wheel/saddle/seat post.

No idea, but I know the hydraulics on Metro have saved my life once already when a car ran a stop sign and crossed in front of me.

Same situation in Denver, bike theft is a major contributor to our homeless/druggie economy. Happens in center of the City, in sight of legislators and bureaucrats who don't want to deal with it, huge chop shops in Civic Center Park. Facebook page is "Denver Stolen Bikes"...

Colorado here, #7. Not sure how they rate us A for Legislation & Enforcement unless it's relative to others. I'd be generous and give us a C.

Had a slightly different experience. I bought my bike from a local dealer; it wasn't the greatest of experiences. Gave me a 36v charger for my 48v bike, twice brought bike in for minor maint that was only partially done, head of Svc was ex motorcycle mech not even bike. They moved far away so I...

There are also supposed to be public mtgs coming about using "e-devices" on Multi Use Trails but I haven't seen any notices...

Denver had 107 straight hrs of below freezing temps and 12.5" of snow to end October. Mtns ahead of avg snowfall also, early opening for ski resorts. Still getting 50-60 degree days tho, so still riding.

Gonna be a schizophrenic winter for me, first one on e-bike. Planning on riding down to about 35-40F, spent a fortune at REI, still need shoe covers and something else for hands - gloves inadequate for crappy circulation old fart. Took my niece's partner, an avid mtn biker, to REI with me for...

I've got the Metro, same inadequate rack. I don't need full panniers, ended up going with Wald baskets that I had to zip tie in place thanks to the bulge in the rack.

Local (Colorado). It offers a pretty good range of services, seems to be cheaper than OM; I'm going for the 48v 16ah Dorado. Worth checking out if you're interested in longer range/new battery. https://www.hicbattery.com

Haven't seen that one but my dealer gave me a 36v charger for my 48v Metro. Couldn't figure out why it wouldn't fully charge. Might double check your charger, I never thought about it.

8088 works on my Metro, also w/C7.
