    Yikes, that’s a lot of money. Oh well.

    New to the Group - Looking for Gravel Friends in the Bay Area

    Welcome aboard, @dpaulson . You’re riding my old stoping grounds (back in the early ‘90s). Congrats, you’re very . I’m sure there’s gazillions of riders in the area. I don’t know how popular eBikes are in Marin, but maybe @PedalUma can point you in the right direction. I believe he’s in...

    Anyone else still putting miles on their RipCurrent S?

    Fantastic, Laser…. Sounds like you have an “in” with Lectric, as I don’t recall seeing what you wrote before… I’d love to hear more although my primary interest is in seeing Juiced make a comeback under Lectric. My understanding is that Lectric has no obligation to deal with Juiced’s...

    RideWithGPS

    @edobici_forza , I think Jeremy uses it more thoroughly than I do, but here’s my usage. And, I love the app, though I have little to compare it with (other than car GPS apps). I almost exclusively use the RWGPS Cycle map and turn on/off the various options (mostly unpaved cycling layer)...

    The Unique New E-Bike With Rivian DNA

    Drive by wire is interesting. We saw that recently on some urban e-trucks that have pedals… Pretty interesting stuff. Is there a time in that video when the features of the bike are covered? I got bored after a couple of minutes of organizational history as I’m only interested in the tech/bike.

    Dual motor; full suspension; semi-recumbent MeetOneTrike with 180nm torque @ 25 mph

    I think Rad is still up and shipping. Probably some good deal(s) over the holidays. I continue to get marketing email from them, but yes it looks like they’re on their way out.

    4 better then 3?

    That might be more of an issue elsewhere (than the US), but it’s a really good point. It’s possible you’d be excluded from some multi-use paths, especially dependent on where you live/ride, Kevin.

    RideWithGPS

    @Chargeride , I don’t know about the map(s) that RWGPS has in the UK, but where I ride in central MA (USA) their mapping is pretty good. I lost track of your conversation above with Stefan, but if you have a RWGPS question let me know.

    Brake Wear Question -- Is it possible...

    Also could have a stock piston or stuck pad if wear is uneven. The last time I changed my pads I had to deal with both situations.

    Anyone else still putting miles on their RipCurrent S?

    Anyone riding their Juiced RCS (or other) through the winter? I’ve been off the bike for a couple of months (around 3400 mi) due to some personal issues, but hoping to get back on very soon. Haven’t heard anything from Lectric for a few months since they purchased the rights to the name and...

    Brake bleeding without bleeding ports

    I’m pretty sure there’s no bleed screw on my brake block. I’m glad the OP found one, but if you don’t have one, you need to use the syringe to force the mineral oil in and do the pumping that Santa and Gionni described. It took me a while to figure this out, but any brake kit will have the...

    Recommended low voltage discharge of a 60v Li-Ion battery

    80/20 is a great rule of thumb. I obey it pretty religiously. If your charger doesn’t allow you to stop at 80% (most don’t) don’t sweat it. You should occasionally charge to 100% to ensure balancing of all cells in your battery. Finally, if you’re storing your bike/battery for long(ish)...

    Fat STREET Tires are WAY BETTER for Riding on Pavement than KNOBBY Off-Road Tires

    It certainly does get cold up there, @DDBB . But it’s important to find a way to stay in shape through those cold months. Good luck!

    My dream bike got stolen. Lessons, next?

    That’s a shame to hear, Bobs… I hope you can replace it soon.

    Yeah, that is tight. Also, check the shock crown height if you’re going to try them in front too.
