    No doubt it would be a totally boring place for a teenager or young adult. I'd like to have my 24 year old son come up since there is currently a boom in the trades, but he'd probably go stir crazy and my have a tough time finding a nice girl...

    Perhaps this is also a case where being mature and having grey hair might also be helpful? In reading the SJC Sheriff's log; it would seem that if they have more than one sheriff deputy on "The Rock" it would be too many! The more we hear it referred to as "Orcatraz" the more we are getting...

    No motorized vehicles allowed

    Hi John, I saw this new legislation but it seems so easy for the state or local land managers to just arbitrarily prohibit them. This is what was done in most of the AZ areas where regular mtbs are allowed. in actuality, I've never seen any sort of enforcement so I don't worry too much about it...

    Any of you WA guys know the situation of emtbs in the WA State Parks? We are moving to a home just outside of Moran State Park and I was planning on riding my emtbs there in my normal super-courteous way to other trail users and not drawing attention to myself. However I'd rather not get...

    Question to Haibike Full Suspension owners

    I have replaced the chain 2 other times (get a gauge to easily check it) and understand the chain to cassette replacement ratio is typically 3 to one - so I was right on. Prior to replacement it didn't really make noise per se, but was jumping in and out of the gears indicative of a worn...

    Upgraded fork on FS RC - Wow!

    Have a 2016 FullSeven Xduro RC and it came with Rock Shox 120mm travel Recon solo air forks. They were OK, but nothing like the Pikes on my Bulls. Also liked the slacker 66 degree head angle on the Bulls as apposed to the 69 degrees on the RC. I found a great deal on a new 160mm travel Lyrik...

    Question to Haibike Full Suspension owners

    I think the proper term is "shiznizzle" according to Urban Dictionary... And yes, my '16 Full Seven is definitely that regardless of the spelling! I've go around the same miles on mine and just last week replaced the chain AND cassette because is started to jump in and out of the gears. I had...

    Make sure you have proper leg extension, and perhaps try lowering the handlebars so you have a bit of a forward cant and put a little more weight on your hands.

    Tubeless on the Vado 3.0

    Also consider the "Ghetto Tubless" method. Search that term on YouTube. I did it on my mid-drive grocery-getter build with great results. If your rims already are drilled for the larger schrader valve and are not tubeless ready then this method has a lot of merit.

    What’s a better buy BBS01 or BBS02

    Thanks. It is my "grocery getter" that has been working out well with the fold out baskets. Have been really cutting down on using the car.

    I have a Bulls FS Enduro with the Brose motor for a little over a year and have never broke the chain and am just about to replace it as it is just out of spec. I ride this bike A LOT on rugged mountainous trails. Also have a Haibike for over 2 years and have only broke a non-ebike chain...

    What’s a better buy BBS01 or BBS02

    Oh, I forget to mention; the Tongsheng kit comes with a wiring harness to run 6v lights that can be turned off and on by the display like a high-end factory bike. Tongsheng kits are available from Biketrix in Canada.

    What’s a better buy BBS01 or BBS02

    I suggest you also consider the Tongsheng 700w mid-drive. Well built and has a better mounting arrangement, lighter, and with it's torque sensor is more of a natural biking experience. Just a couple of hours ago I got back from a 42 mile ride at mostly 18-22 mph.

    Why Electric Bikes Shouldn't Be Allowed on Mountain Biking Trails?

    Good for you! As long as your being courteous to other user and are not hurting anybody or anything, what's the problem? Young fit guys ride the trails much faster than I can on my peddle assist bikes. Ironically the only time I have been confronted by anyone about my assist bike on the trails...

    Switching from conventional bikes to e-bikes is not beneficial.

    I like my SQLabs Ergolux. They's send you out a fit kit to size your sit bones prior to ordering. (Link Removed - No Longer Exists)
