    Verve shock stem

    Welcome to the forum! Hope this helps. It appears the bike is fitted with an adjustable quill stem like this one: You'll have to replace it with a threadless quill adapter such as this if you want to use that suspension stem...

    Bikes in the Age of Tariffs

    If this tariff turmoil keeps hitting my portfolio like it has been lately, I may be selling my e-bikes to buy food! :confused:

    Whom pays for your charge ?

    Why not sneak into the neighbors garage and charge there. That way, there is no risk of fire at your place and you don't even need the extension cord! :rolleyes:

    Whom pays for your charge ?

    Years ago, I installed electric service to one of my barns so I could put up a dusk to dawn lamp. Recently, I replaced it with an LED lamp. As a result. the lamp doesn't use the minimum KWH billed, so I store and charge my bikes in the building. Not exactly free but it doesn't cost anything...

    Li-ion Battery experiences

    Interesting thread. Thanks for posting. I've had similar issues with my DeWalt tool batteries. It seems that battery makers uses different charging & monitoring schemes. With DeWalt for example, the low voltage cutoff is in the tool, not the battery BMS. I usually don't have issues when...

    SCHWALBE MARATHON PLUS TYRES

    +1 on the Marathon+ :rolleyes: I've had great results while using them for trail riding on all my bikes since 2018. The center tread does tend to wear after 1K miles or so, but it doesn't affect traction in gravel and actually makes them quieter on pavement.

    Can An EBike Travel On A Bike Rack In The Rain?

    I use these arm protector sleeves: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B089K2JLGK?ref_=ppx_hzsearch_conn_dt_b_fed_asin_title_18 They're waterproof and cover the entire bar end including the display, brake, shift and throttle controls. They install in seconds and are resistant to wind damage.

    Schwalbe Tyre Problem

    Have you checked to see if the tire is balanced? Is the rim bent or out of true? This can be an issue, especially if you use sealant in your tubes. Welcome to the forum and please keep us posted on the problem.

    Removeing throttle to be compliant and responsible

    I've been looking for an easily removeable throttle for those class 1 only MUPs, and came up with this idea: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CR7W541Z?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title&th=1 Performance is very smooth with no flat spots or cutouts. Uses a yellow 3 pin male Juliet connector and was...

    Rechargeable inflator

    I also have this Fumpa air pump for portable use: https://www.fumpapumps.com/collections/fumpa-pumps Pricey but well made. It has a press on valve with very little air loss when released. It can be difficult to use in tight spaces though.

    My modified van bike holders

    Nice build and a great idea! What vehicle is it? IMO, there's no better way to carry a bike than inside a closed vehicle. I'd dearly love to find a van with enough roof clearance to fit my high stem bikes. I log several thousand miles per season riding trails all over the eastern US. As a...

    Riding without the motor

    When I want exercise, I turn off the PAS on my 68# bike and pedal a few miles. After the "workout", I switch on the PAS and enjoy the scenery for the rest of the ride. This way, I can use the same bike for both exercise and enjoyment. No need to haul around two bikes. As a result, I recently...

    xt 30 connector voltage

    I actually carry a copy of the 52V section in my wallet for quick reference. :rolleyes: You'd think I would have committed the chart to memory by now, but I still need it from time to time.

    Hi gang!

    You pick up the lingo after awhile here. You've got most of them right. "Ghost pedaling" means to spin the crank with little or no pedal pressure while allowing the cadence sensor to activate the motor. Makes it look like you're pedaling the bike. "Analog" is a term used locally along with...

    Rechargeable inflator

    I use these quick release hose adapters: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07MXBYPT2?ref_=ppx_hzsearch_conn_dt_b_fed_asin_title_1 One end threads into the existing hose and has a quick release chuck on the other. I lose less than a half pound of air during the release when filling a 2.25 x 26...
