I used to mingle with road cyclists, and even was on three coffee rides with them (but it was never a true peloton). A road cyclist loves a 2x drivetrain with a huge larger chainring. On climbing, they use the smaller ring, which might give the gearing ratio perhaps 1:1 (I'm not an expert here)...

They do pedal on descents :) All about the speed! Trust me :)

He rides a road e-bike, and roadies think a little bit differently :) The chainring type is different, too. An example of a good compatible chainring for Creo SL 1: https://garbaruk.com/shop/110-bcd-5-bolt-chainring-814?category=7#attribute_values=72,82,30 Here are the bolts...

Is it a 5 bolt chainring? My point is it is not required to use a Praxis chainring at all. Garbaruk or Wolftooth make better chainrings. I think your chainring is 5-bolt 110 BCD. This and the proper bolts, that's it. Who needs Praxis nowadays?

Please first tell us what is your chainring BCD and number of holes. Or, what e-bike model and model year?

One of the best quotes from "Sexmission" occured when the two guys could reach the surface of the Earth with a lift: -- Where do we go now? -- Let's head East. There must be some civilisation! :D That was censored. I think I could watch the movie during my military service in an open air cinema...

With English subtitles. You must watch it :D Click it to watch on YouTube.

I extended my post, please read it :D

Murphy was female, same as Copernicus* :D ----------- *) You need to be a Pole and watch a movie named "Sexmission" to understand that :) -------- Ok. you deserve an explanation. "Seksmisja", one of the best Polish comedy movies ever was a story of two men (one perfectly normal and the other...

I gave him a heart after he posted the OP :)

It's "a server" now...

It's because you don't use FB 😃 I have found an easy way to drive or ride in the left hand traffic countries such as the UK or Ireland. You extend the arm closer to your heart and say: 'This is the RIGHT'. Then extend your opposite arm and memorise: 'This is the LEFT'. Where do you turn when...

Pathfinder Pro 2 Bliss are still available in 38-622. Wanted you to go with the new Pathfinder Fast Gravel Tire TLR, you would have to go down to 35-622... (it is the size of Schwalbe studded winter tyres I must use when it is ice outside). I was trying to help @JRitt as he definitely wants to...

@Chargeride: please watch this at the same time as me, and let us exchange our opinions. This video has an English audio track and subtitles as explained in the beginning of the video. (The guy's spoken English is not the best: I preferred the subtitles).

We use a 21 mm rim on Vado SL 1.

"In our country, a woman always goes outside in a company of a man, even to the marketplace". Why is it so, Dima? I think it was the safe part of Yemen. Noraly Schoenmaker in Yemen.

I cannot help noticing she spills more often than I do these days :) She started appreciating lightweight low power motorbikes before the last trip. Like that 250 cc, 24 HP, 103 kg Honda CRF250L. She noticed it was so easy to cross rough terrain if the bike was lightweight. Which reminds me of...

Unless you are female? I cannot forget questions asked her by some police officer in an Islamic country: -- Alone? -- Alone. -- No husband? -- I need no husband. -- How old are you? -- 37. -- A woman of that age in our country would have four children by now. Why aren't you married? -- Is it a...

The tyre fashion changes every few years. Only recently, the 38 and 42 mm tyres were the standard for wheels such as used on Vado SL 1. Now, the trend is 40 or 45 mm. The issue here is the measured tyre width does not necessarily match the nominal size of the tyre depending on the manufacturer...

I have spent a good time of my recovery on watching Itchy Boots videos. I have been able to backtrack her life story and the motivation that pushed her on the trails worldwide. Whatever -- she puts her health and life to a big risk riding off-road alone. The crash she had in Tanzania in 2024...
