On e-bikes, what components are the most likely to be unique to a given brand? I had new brakes, chain and tires installed on my Rambo a few weeks ago. I went to a local bike shop, but they are not a Rambo dealer.

That is a great point and this is a good topic of discussion. It is difficult to predict the future and anticipate with great certainty who will vanish and who will last, but there can be clues. In my lifetime I have seen a number of products become quite popular and then settle down. As a kid...

I have a Rambo Krusader 2.0. It is AWD, but I can select front only or rear only. I bought it because I live in Minnesota and I do ride in the winter. We do get snow here and it seemed like a good choice. They now have a Rambo Krusader 3.0. Like others suggested, test rides are a great idea...

Speaking of resistant to change, my oldest sister is 76 years old and refuses to text. Her daughter has tried to teach her, but she is stubborn and just won't do it.

My wife and I are travelling now. We have two e-bikes on a receiver hitch on our vehicle. What is the best way to protect the bikes, particularly the electrical connection when the battery is removed?

Thank you for the reply. I am thinking of using a power bank on future rides to see if that works out for me. I already have power banks. I just need a water bottle holder to put it in and a run a short cord to the Garmin.

I use a Garmin when I go fo bike rides. In above freezing weather, if I start with a fully charged battery, it will last the entire ride that is an hour or less. Lately, the temperatures have been about 18 or 20 degrees Fahrenheit when I ride and battery will go into the battery saver mode...

I am glad to see that some areas take impaired driving enforcement seriously. My niece died a horrific death as a result of impared driving.

Do you want a one wheel drive or two wheel drive e-bike?

You may want to take a test ride on both at local dealers. Another factor in my experience would be what the 3 miles commute is like from your home to your office. Is it both e-bike friendly and e-scooter friendly? Are there paved bike paths nearby that permit e-bikes, but not e-scooters? How...

Has anybody here ever added an LED whip to their bike? I have seen some online that might work pretty well for a bike.

I did take a test ride this past Sunday on a Sunseeker E-Fat Tad Electric Assist Tadpole. It is definitely different than riding a traditional bike.

I bet there is now an entire generation of GNSS users that have never heard the term Selective Availability (SA).

What is Dual Frequency/Multi-Band GPS? https://support.garmin.com/en-US/?faq=9NWiPDU4gM0JWMfdWFol7A

Thank you for posting that. My first automobile navigator was a Garmin StreetPilot. I am also on forums for GPS and mapping technology. Fun stuff!

A friend of mine asked if I want him to do a firmware update on my Gazelle Ultimate C380+. I last time I had that bike at my local bike shop, they didn't say anything about a firmware update. Does anybody happen to know what the updates are?

I bought some replacement pedals. Should I buy a pedal wrench? It looks like it is probably easier to swap them out with the use of a pedal wrench. I have also seen that some that have handles that are extra long. Is it worthwhile to buy one with a longer handle?

Perhaps an aluminum MTB pedal would last longer. I will look into that. Thank you for the reply.

I broke a pedal on my Gazelle Ultimate C380+ during my ride this afternoon. Should I replace with the same pedals that it came with or should I look for something different?
