    With the nice weather this upcoming week, I was also thinking of taking a mid-week trip down to Western Maryland area to ride the GAP trail, C&O, and/or WMRT. I was wondering what you thought the conditions would be like at this time of year, and how to best allocate the time. Realistically I...

    Seriously (not subjectively)... Do suspension forks improve safety on Urban ebikes?

    I have two thousand miles on my full air suspension eMTB and have never done a bit of maintenance aside from wiping them off after a muddy ride. Probably this is bad advice. But no issues here.

    Toyota Deck Rail System

    Jealous of you guys with the 6.5 foot beds. I have a short 5 foot bed on my truck. Great for getting around in the city, and a solid 25mpg highway, but a project like yours is nigh impossible on a short bed.

    Solutions for transporting and securing bike on short truck bed.

    4' is really all you need. Never have I had an issue. The longest I could fit in my short bed truck is a 5' piece of wood anyway.

    Solutions for transporting and securing bike on short truck bed.

    A 4 foot piece of plywood, a stepstool, and a couple ratchet straps to the habdlebars are all you really need. I just tighten the straps until the fork begins to compress. You can also tie off to the saddle rails if you don't have a dropper post. I have a short bed, and a bike that is 69"...

    eBike friendly homeowners insurance?

    Hi all, Wondering if anybody has experience with filing a claim for theft of an eBike, whether at home or away on a trail, through your homeowners insurance. What company do you use, and how were they in handling the claim? How did it affect your premium?

    Solutions for transporting and securing bike on short truck bed.

    Yes, thats a tailgate pad. I'm not a fan because its a pain to lift the heavy ebike up over the tailgate. Also, I worry about the front wheel picking up road debris.

    As I said earlier in this thread, SPACs get crushed when the market is overall trending down. This may be a good time to buy.

    Interesting, and what is the wheel chock you use? I keep a gorilla stepstool in the bed and use that to help load the bike into the bed. Very stable and well built.

    Toyota Deck Rail System

    I have been searching for a solution like this for over a year. Specifically, look at the blue tundra with the bike over the crossbars - he has a tonneau cover, with the bike on the crossbars - I want something exactly like this. I don't want to have to remove the front wheel to get the bike...

    I have a short bed mid-sized truck. My Bed length is only 60." Transporting eBikes on the truck bed is something I have spent much time thinking about over the last year, and still have yet to reach a satisfactory solution. My eBike is somewhat long, around 69" total length. I transport the...

    Wall Street Bets: The EBR Edition

    Fail in the sense they drop below the $10 starting price, and may not rise back above the $10/share price for a long time, if ever.

    Wall Street Bets: The EBR Edition

    You posted this earlier in the thread... Buying a SPAC at NAV is essentially the same thing as parking your money in a savings account, but it offers significant upside potential with negligible risk. Don't get burned buying hyped up spacs and holding through the merger. QS is a rare...

    Wall Street Bets: The EBR Edition

    When you buy a SPAC at NAV, with no intention of holding it through the merger, there is no flip of the coin. The money is safe and your downside risk is practically nothing. Holding a spac through a merger is really taking a chance. If you are new to this, I would encourage you to do more...
