That's a good reminder. Do you have AAA? Also, any comment on how it broke? Did you bump it? Or jump a curb?

Sierratim - I'm sure it was. It looks like a classic! Thank you for telling me about it. I found this helpful. (Guess I can't just add in HTML code. Oops.)

Found "The Bicycle Wheel" in PDF, which is good, as I'm averse to buying books that are over $100. Good tips all around. Thank you everyone!!

I bought a rim. We'll see how long it takes. If i can complete the task in 5 hours, i'll be super surprised. Rim will arrive in the mail in 1 or 2 weeks, i'd guess.

It's not the worst... but man some mistakes are painful. We'll see if the LBO can "true it." They still have it. Not to sounds like a heretic, but makes me want to buy a Frey next time. I wasn't gentle, but geeze, i didn't think i'd bent it.... we'll see what's next.

Thanks for the information. Seems like a god-awful waste.... for a bent rim.

Has anyone else bent their rear tire on a "cross current"? I bent mine pretty badly yesterday... not even sure how. I dropped it off at the LBS. They will try to straighten it. Is it hard to move the hub motor to a new rim? Has anyone else had to do that?

I ordered mine 8/9. It arrived 8/14. Just FYI.

I bought an M-Class about a month ago. The bike arrived within a week of purchasing it, which seemed super fast. I bought it for my wife. She doesn't care that much about going fast. She prefers a more manageable bike (smaller and lighter than my Juiced CrossCurrent S2). We also wanted to...

Oh and SNAP. I went biking today and my son's bike got a flat tire.... it was kinda my fault. We biked past a bicycle station and I thought I'd take the opportunity to add some air to his tire.... somehow I think i destroyed the valve. So, he got a flat tire 6 miles from home. (My, wife, and...

This has been a good thread. I have learned a lot. Everyone's situation is different... here is mine. I only bike in a pretty populated area (Minneapolis/St. Paul and suburbs). But, I bike with my wife and two sons. My sons are very young (4 and 7). Young children make bad scenarios worse...

Well, this makes me nervous. My bike comes in a week. I hope it works out better than yours! UPDATE: No longer nervous. The bike I bought has been good.

Why do you go looking for trouble?

I'll be following this. I was wondering if its possible to add such a configuration to a RadCity. Seems unlikely.

Has anyone added a Trail-A-Bikes or Tag-Along to a RadCity? Does the rear rack prevent this configuration?

Also, I biked 20 miles today on level 0 with a child on my bike. I'm tired. But, for those of you who wonder, if it can be done. Reason: family bike day. And I had to stay slow to stay with my wife. Also, I figured, if I had to go slow, i should get some exercise. Mission accomplished!

I'm interested if you are 1) Optimistic - i'm not worried. There's no need to plan. 2) Realistic - I realize this could happen, this is how I've prepared. But, luckily, it's never happened. 3) Experienced - This happened to me, this is what I did. 4) Procrastinating - I realize this could...

The Hafney does NOT work for me at all. I"m surprised people recommend it. Complete waste.

Hi. I 'm still learning about bike repairs. I've had my CCS2 for 250 miles. The chain seems to slip a lot now. I think it's just the chain and not a clutch problem. But, I don't now what a clutch problem would feel like. 1) I think my CCS2 came with a fairly basic chain guide. (see...
