Got it, spoke... Glad you have the slack you need to do the splicing. Tallyho.

@spokewrench forgive me but I’m having trouble envisioning where that cable is on the bike. It’s so close-up that I don’t know what I’m looking at. For the record, I see two damaged spots on the cable. The obvious cut, but also on the left of the picture looks badly pinched and (likely)...

Today I rode with some friends (see pic). These guys do very well on their unassisted bikes though I try not to embarrass them. :D No, seriously, they do great. Anyway, cheers! A little over 80 miles for the week over four riding days. Just some beautiful weather. Life is good.

Hi Jeremy, I’ve spent about an hour reading several documents on the web about the various lithium ion battery technologies. They all explain why it’s best to avoid 100% charges, but I can’t find anything that supports the claim that “time spent” at full charge is relevant to the amount of...

Definitely no harm done, Jeremy, but you’ll get longer life if you stay around 80%. I’m not a chem E, but I don’t recall that “time spent” at 100% is a relevant factor. If I recall correctly in my research of the technology it is simply the act of charging to 100% that shortens the life of...

Oh, my first piece of advice for you… One important thing that you can do to prolong the life of your battery is to observe the 80-20 rule of thumb. Namely, try not to charge past 80%, and don’t drain below 20%. This is due to the way the lithium-ion batteries work. Once in a while, charge...

Oy. You’re talking about that plank at the end of the bridge, right? What do you think? Is that to keep the cows off it? Well, 53 pounds is a haul, Charge, but I’m glad you were able to manage it. That’s significantly (20 pounds) less than my RipCurrent. I’m not quite sure how I’d have...

My son is moving to Brooklyn soon. I may have to give him a bike just to get him started! :D
