    Horn, Bell or Voice, how to warn others of your presence and intentions

    I was inspired to order a clown horn to add to the clutter on my handlebar (as if the bell weren't enough). Who came up with "on your left," anyway? :rolleyes: I mean, the uninitiated could easily hear that and think, "Am I supposed to be more to my left?" It's so indefinite. The first couple...

    Vote! Do you like old or new color layout for forum?

    Heck yeah, I like the blue. But then, I like blue anyways. A darker green might have been an okay change, too, but that old shade of green always seemed a little funky to me, for a website.

    VERY disappointed with my new 2023 Specialized Turbo Como 3.0

    Honestly, I don't know how the OP, Inthewind, ever got into her predicament. Going to LBS, test riding, then ordering the Como from (I'd imagine) the LBS without ever asking them whether they could and would modify the handlebar height?? How does one even do that? Makes no sense to me...

    VERY disappointed with my new 2023 Specialized Turbo Como 3.0

    My solution for sit bones was to have a more upright sitting position via higher handlebar. Which is hard to do on the Como, of course.

    Horn, Bell or Voice, how to warn others of your presence and intentions

    I can see why you'd complain. Sounds like a great opportunity to stop and talk to young females. But too bad for you, there's Mrs. DG.... 🥹

    WHO TURNED ME BLUE!

    It was done by a U of Mich. fan. "M Go Blue!" As opposed to Spartan green & white... :p

    Is it safe to freely use the throttle WHILE PEDALING on a mid drive?

    Let's all pitch in and buy Stefan a Fitbit. Might be just the thing for him. Data, data, data. He'd have a ball posting on the Fitbit forum. ;)

    Forum migrated, please report issues!

    A couple days ago I added a signature line and saved it, but it doesn't appear in my posts. Is that the sort of issue you want us to report?

    Is it safe to freely use the throttle WHILE PEDALING on a mid drive?

    On the way to the nearby MUP, I can take a shortcut across grass if I climb a brief (maybe 12' long) incline that's about a 20 degree grade. It's dirt so I don't want to hit it too fast, and I don't want to change my PAS level or my gear for just that one short incline. So I hit the throttle...

    Best Rock Ever? Nominations, No Air Supply!

    The younger generation has some unusual tastes in music. My son likes listening to Buckethead. I have to admit, the beat on this jam piece is pretty catchy.

    Interesting choice for a backdrop. Don't let the ebike get you there faster! :D

    I finally did it!

    Good for you! Looks like a pretty clean install.

    Builder gone to the dark side.

    Before buying my ebike a year ago, I'd been riding a Trek Pure Sport. Like the Townie, the crank is well forward of (not below) the seat, even forward of the seatpost (which they set less upright, too). The rider sits low enough to have both feet just about flat on the ground while still in...

    Encinitas City Council declares emergency for e-bikes, bicycles

    Did you notice that those articles tell how beneficial immigrants in general are, but do not address the more specific category of undocumented immigrants? I say immigrants are great, let 'em come, but let's make sure they're documented and also a bit vetted. It would reduce that slavery you...

    Brose Como motor propels without pedaling? Problem

    Your ebike is possessed. Sprinkle it with holy water (not too much though). :D
