    Vaast E/1

    I would never buy an e-bike from an unknown brand with no support or market presence. Yet another start-up.

    Multi-Terrain Tire Advice?

    Late to this thread. Schwalbe Johnny Watts 365 27.5 x 2.35 Schwalbe G-One Allround 27.5 x 2.25 The issue Cybersnow with the e-bike of narrower 27.5" tyres is the 2.0 - 2.2" width is quite unusual there. Tyres in that range are either narrower or wider than your requirement.

    Bosch Display Upgrade or Bail out?

    A direct connection or via an app?

    When I owned a Giant E+, I only used the app for setting the assistance levels but anything else :)

    Whoever has ever ridden a Giant e-bike is aware the app is the weakest link. However, Giant e-bikes are very well made and hardly ever break! Interestingly, Giant e-bikes have a perfect connectivity with Garmin Edge bike GPS computers!

    Bosch Display Upgrade or Bail out?

    Bike GPS computers such as Wahoo ELEMNT or Garmin Edge connect to both HR monitors and to Garmin Varia. You get "display parameters" such as the cruising speed, distance ridden, HR, graphical output from Varia and many other useful ride parameters (such as the distance to the destination). The...

    It's how stupid Johnny imagines Polish 😃 One of stupid Johnny jokes: -- "Johnny" - the schoolteacher says - "Say a rhyme" -- "Whistling, shouting, someone's rant Water reaches up her knees" -- "Johnny, there's no rhyme here!" -- "The rhyme here is what hides It will come with a tide" 😃 Got it?

    I did ask AI for the credibility of the sign :)

    It would be hilarious if not the fact it is a fake, very appropriate for Charge who seems not to tell AI from the real world anymore :)

    It is darn idiotic. When you choose your lifetime partner, you might have no idea you would ever fall in love with cycling. My beloved late wife could cycle but I wouldn't even dare involving her in my rides since 2013. Each of us had own interests, only we fully supported the partner in doing...

    I will re-iterate the video you showed was very informative! I still cannot stop thinking about it. Hardcore roadies, MTBers... A cult. It is easier to live in the gravel cycling community (at least here). There are very few gravel race organisers in Poland who actually demand riding "true...

    Which reminds me my hitting a helmeted head against a curb at 30 km/h on a race... I'm glad Dave you came out without more severe injuries. Although the inability to play the guitar is a punishment in itself! To cheer you up, listen to the song about a bad day I sung alternately in Silesian and...

    I sympathise with you Dave totally! I know what a good injury means... Get on well soon! (As we Poles say "It will cure before your wedding!" Oh, shut up Stefan...)

    Do you feel better now? Look at yourself and what you are writing. Jeremy was at least talking to me. You talk about me to a third person in my presence. I was taught it was the most rude behaviour.

    It is not what we eat in Poland :) You must have mistaken some countries with us :) (Latvia?)

    @Watana Bob, @fritz katzenjammer: I feel your pain, guys! 18 F is technically speaking the lower limit for riding an e-bike. If you ever decide riding in the low temps, there is the best tutorial I could find in these Forums: Winter Biking Advice From A Minnesotan. As Polish winters tend to be...
