    Today I did my first-ever ride up to a Nike missile site near here. Rode from home all the way up. I've walked/hiked it once. 1000' of vertical on steep fire roads. This bike is so cool - loving it! (Ignore the Ebbetts Pass caption - not sure why the app added that - was from a pic I took a...

    What rear rack are you using?

    Wow - nice setup! That's a burly looking rack, too - looks like it'd work fine on my Giant. And if I can't pick up the threaded seat stay mounting lugs I could go with the seat post clamp chingas that you recommended. Good find. Thanks for sharing all the info and pics - really helpful.

    What rear rack are you using?

    Good tip - thanks! I checked out their site - looks like very solid, high quality gear. Unfortunately, my Roam comes with traditional skewer axles, so I don't think this will work.

    What rear rack are you using?

    My Giant Roam e+ measures 7" between the threaded mounting lugs on the chainstay above the rear axle, so about an inch and a bit wider (or more) than any of the racks I've used on my non-e bikes in the past. I'm hesitant to buy a generic one and bend the struts out enough to fit since they're...

    Show us pictures of where you ride your ebikes!

    Just finished my longest ride yet on my Giant Roam e+. Loving this bike. I can now travel twice as far as I could without e assist, and on this ride I hit some of my favorite trails. Headed out to Phoenix lake in Ross, CA, rode the fire road out into the redwoods there. Turned around, went the...

    Giant Roam E+ Reviews

    My 2021 Roam e+ is 1x9 and came with a Shimano Altus rear derailer. Anyone know if the Deore rear deraileur is a straight swap out using existing rear cassette and shifters? Or will it only work as a matched system? (Based on these reviews/questions on Amazon it looks like it is doable just...

    How do you secure your bike?

    Then there's this one coming out from Hiplok that they claim will eat angle grinder disks. https://hiplok.com/d1000-anti-angle-grinder-bike-lock/

    2021 Giant Roam E+ GTS 1st impressions...

    +1 on your review, Sefutau. I bought my 2021 Roam e+ a couple weeks ago. My previous ride was a Giant Anthem 2, all CF FS mountain bike. I used to ride single track and fireroads on it and loved it. And then I blew a tendon over my knee, and that was the end up my MTB riding. Until I picked up...

    HEALTH BATTERY DROPPED FROM 98 TO 93% IN FEWS DAY

    I just got a 2021 Roam e+, so different battery and charger than the one on the Explore. I decided to check the battery health after my first charge up, and was suprised to see it was only 94%. I called the dealer and asked about this, and he said Giant told him it's normal for a new...

    Charger Replacement

    Hey Pedaluma - curious if your Thursday group rides are open rides. I live down the road from you in San Rafael, just picked up my first e-bike, and would be up for a ride like you described. (FYI, next Saturday there's a meetup group ride over the Richmond Bridge, staging at the Larkspur SMART...

    Greetings from NorCal, USA

    Hey all - just picked up a Giant Roam e+, my first e-bike, and already loving it. I live a few miles from Fairfax and Mt Tamalpais, the alleged home of mountain biking. I've spent many happy days riding the fireroads there and hiking the trails. Feeling fortunate to live here with the great...
