I recently put a Chinese knockoff of the Jones H bar on my commuter bike. I found the stock straight(ish) flat bar to be uncomfortable on longer rides, so I wanted to try something different. The handlebar felt more comfortable, but I felt the bar had too much of a back sweep (45 degrees). I...

Just to be clear, if you're riding at around 18-20 mph in level 1 the motor is still putting out a bit of power?

I have the full range of bikes; from my carbon Defy road bike, to my Bosch powered e-gravel bike, to my 2200W commuter and mountain bikes. I love my Defy, but at 72 I'm really starting to hate those hills. That's why I'm thinking the CF Racer 1 might be a good replacement for my Defy, which can...

I just went to the Canadian Specialized website to check out the new Creo aluminum and was surprised to see a considerable price drop from the old Creo 1 aluminum model. The new Comp E5 is $5499.00 Canadian, while the Creo 1 was $7200.00. I have no idea if there is a big difference in...

I recently went back and rewatched 3 review videos on the CF Racer 1. I'd like some feedback on what I see as two negatives. First, is the flat, wide handlebar. It looks great for resting your hands on the top for a change of position, but it looks to be next to impossible to mount a light or...

The back wheel looks to be 32 spokes-is that correct? The only thing holding me back from ordering one of these bikes is that I already have a very nice e-gravel bike (Cannondale Topstone Neo Lefty 3), which I really like riding. It's only downside is it weighs 39 pounds.

Their Racer 1 road bike looks very tempting.

Decathlon is available in Canada, but their website doesn't show their new e-gravel bike yet.

I noticed that Cannondale is putting the new Bosch XS motor in their revised Synapse Neo.

I also have a Fumpa pump, but I haven't had to use it in the six months I've owned it, which I guess can be considered a good thing. In the past I always carried a couple of C02 containers, but if you run tubeless with sealant you're going to have to take the tire off and peel off the congealed...

Yes, it's a beautiful looking bike, although I may be bias, as I own a 2018 Defy Advanced Pro 0, which I still enjoy riding.

I'd like to see a e-Defy, with a 300 to 400W battery powering the new Bosch XS motor. Maximum weight of 28 pounds.

What a damn shame. :confused: I asked about the 48v, because my Hydra's battery is a 48V.

Is it the same (no replacement) problem for a 48V battery too?

Cuz Vinny, why did you have to part out your Hydras?

I use Muc-off biodegradable bike cleaner. I spray it on and use soft bristle brushes to clean the bike.

My Kindernay will shift under load, but it doesn't like it. It was a bit of a learning curve, but I now pause my pedalling when I shift.

I suspect one of the main reasons Kindernay went out of business is they couldn't get their hubs to stop leaking. I'm on my second hub and so far it hasn't started to leak, although so far I've only put a couple of hundred miles on the new hub.

Did you have any problems lining up the front ring with the rear cog? I imagine if the 'chain line' isn't perfectly straight the belt will not stay centered.

32 pound battery. :eek:
