    I still need to do my short utility rides. The actual temperature is -1°C. A Garmin would display +4°C. How come such big companies cannot acquire proper thermometers or just calibrate them?!

    Post deleted???

    @ElHegpah: I don't think it is wise to come to a well established community and treat it as a enemy territory from the first post. Not that I would be interested in your Amazon "e-bike" :D Saw I your (reportedly "deleted") post, I would just have skipped it.

    Any negatives to buying a Bulls older model like Bulls Iconic Evo TR 2 ?

    Congratulations! Please report your experience of riding the Trail e-MTB on your local trails! Some pictures would be nice, too! P.S. Were I you, I would start with the standard "linear" assistance modes. These are predictable, especially in the relation to the battery consumption and battery...

    I've been feeling unwell since Monday last week. Only had a chance to see a doctor on last Monday. She told me the infection had combined with my tendency to asthma. Got proper meds and feel better. My gf gave me a ban on long rides during the cold season... and she's right! Unfortunately, it...

    Specialized Turbo Vado SL: An Incredible E-Bike (User Club)

    Decidedly! As many of us here would say, a bike noise might come from anywhere. A good mechanic would be able to identify the rattle noise immediately.

    REALLY use Iconic EVO TR 1 750 on Mt. Bike Trails?

    I also delved deeper into the specs. Suspension 120 mm front and rear, air spring: it is an XC (cross country) class e-MTB Brakes 203 mm front, 180 mm rear. Adequate Drivetrain 38T chainring, 11-46T cassette, 9-speed. Not expensive but it's an MTB gearing that also allows a decent speed on...

    REALLY use Iconic EVO TR 1 750 on Mt. Bike Trails?

    "TR" in the name of this specific model stands for "Trail" as Bulls believes this full-suspension e-bike is single-track capable. The "AM" (All Mountain) models are closer to the Enduro class. I think the model you showed, @mrb55, is trail capable. You only need to remove the fenders/mudguards...

    No, we're dancing pogo and are spitting :) That made the sign really funny! Listen from the 8th second :) The same man Hugh Cornwell speaking in 1977 :D

    Pardon me? :D The rest looks more or less legit. Wuzetka (W-Z or East-West Cake) is totally OK!

    Have you ever been to a Polish restaurant in the U.S.? A Polish Platter. Own photo of Joan, now of South Carolina, a third generation American. She sent me this right now. Aha.

    Wahoo Roam 3 (Is A Lemon)

    Does the LEV Travel Mode display? Could you show me the Sensor page of the Utilities? (Page 2).

    I'll try to get own photos from my friends in North America. Meanwhile, Google is your friend. Five Polish meals on a single platter. (Who in Poland would ever mix sauerkraut with cream cucumber?!) Pierogi Potato pancake Bigos Sausage Gołąbek plus sauerkraut and mizeria as side-dishes :D

    Almost any hotel in Europe, and practically any in the British Isles will offer an excellent food. None of the U.S. hotels I've ever stayed in (except for the resort one in Virginia) has ever offered any breakfast :) An interesting fact from a life of a businessman, innit :)

    Wahoo Roam 3 (Is A Lemon)

    It is all strange, guys. The primary reason for me to ever buy a Wahoo was to serve as a full fledged e-bike display for my Vado SL. The batteries' level was the main feature. Update the firmware on the device (a short click on the ON button, first page, go down to Device Settings)... Make...

    No doubt. It is certainly different if you are a local person and know good places (and have time to cook or drive around). A man like me on a business trip and depending on others has a way harder life, especially given the size of America and the drive distance counted in hours :) Not...

    Rider weight limitations with ICONIC EVO TR 1 750

    AI says 330 lbs should still be no issue. What is problematic for heavy riders is a carbon frame or components. That's why I'm the farthest from anything made of CF 😃

    Wahoo Roam 3 (Is A Lemon)

    It is now up to two numbers, each for either dual battery. It came with one of firmware updates (which you do from the device not from the App!) I had no chance to ride in the direct summer sunshine yet. I hope Auto MAX brightness might be adequate. What is your e-bike make and model? Are you...

    Jeremy, I hope you would understand me. You guys in America have grown with the food there; I grew with food in Europe. The expectations are different. Let me give you several examples: A resort hotel breakfast. Plenty of food indeed. Only the eggs had no taste, and salad vegetables were not...
