Ringo, where are you getting that info from? Any reason not to just try it?

Before I comment, I see this is an old, revived thread. Is the OP still looking?

Sigh. Oh well. Ignore button pushed.

Really? More noise? I guess I could use the ignore button, PC, but sometimes you have useful things to say. This just makes me sad.

@PCeBiker could you remove the post above or at least get rid of the pictures of rusty car parts? That kind of noise devalues the thread, IMO.

Nice Charge… A dune ride, eh? Looks like the HaiBike is up to the task!

First, I’m glad you want to get back on the bike. You obviously have a lot of impediments in your way, but there’s no reason why you shouldn’t be riding again. I don’t know anything about the Cube bikes, but there are a lot of options out there that’ll be less expensive for you. Also, you...

Ravi, another quick question… Are you guys doing any work with solid state battery tech? I gotta’ say that I’d really like to see lithium supplanted with solid state sooner rather than later. I mean lithium is great in a lot of ways, but I really don’t like living with the dangerous potential...

I was going to warn you to keep a close eye on the battery when charging it to see if it was heating up. If it got warm/hot anywhere that’d probably indicate cell unbalanced and could’ve been an indication of damage to a cell. It sounds like your battery’s BMS might’ve gone on the blink...

I did clean the pads with alcohol before I installed them recently, but I’ll do everything and I’ll check the rotors when I get the new pads, Gionni. Thanks for the thoughts!

Agreed. That’s kind of exactly what I’ve been doing, Chris. And, I’ve used the “see light through both side gaps” frequently to make sure the pads are closing evenly. I’m not an expert at this process, and maybe I’m not doing it right, but I’ve tried to adjust all those things several times...

Well, I tried transplanting the disk pads from the other bike, and yeah they had more material on them, but adjust as I might I cannot get the front to grab properly and the squealing has been driving me batty. Anyway, I ordered new B01S-compatible pads — a set of resin and a set of...

I’m somewhat speechless. That doesn’t happen often. :D

Love the Timex, @Slaphappygamer !

Is that a joke or is there really such a thing? Must be terrifying! The onewheel seems like a reasonable idea, but can those go offroad? Pardon the (complete) ignorance.

Yeah, what I’ve read suggests that you do more to lower a lithium battery’s longevity with a deep discharge than with a full charge. Of course if you need to do either, than you gotta’ do what you gotta’ do.

And yes, that’s one of the beauties of having a bike shop that you can deal with. Not that you’ll have any trouble with the Gazelle, but if you do you won’t have to wrench it all yourself (or in the case of an ebike wire it). :) Which model did you choose, @Rider678 ?

Lovely day for a ride today here. Finally a break from a heat wave. Yay! The link below the picture is to a video of a cool section of the rail trail. Unfortunately, EBR doesn’t seem to support streamable as a media source. Weird. Anyway, hope you guys can follow it...

I will only say that (some) yahoo motorists on the back roads of central MA are not friendly. Still wouldn’t deter me if I were on a quest like the OP.

Rowena, can you get a kickstand? For a heavy bike, you’ll be glad to have one. edit: oh, sorry, I didn’t realize this thread was over a year old. tallyho.
