That's the boogyman argument I see so much. All those components have been proven extremely reliable as long as you don't have bargin basment components that you often find on low-end hub drive bikes. After over 50,000 miles on mid-drive bikes, including a tandem ,I have never broken a chain or...

they have rain so there.

unless its really cheap components, shifting is long-lasting. I have 20,000 miles on my original derailer. I shift a lot because I used to ride recumbents, but even then, I get over 8k on shifting housing or cable.

Crap, the longer rides and maybe the lack of suspension is hurting me, making sitting on the bike painful. its the same saddle and angle and all I have on all my bikes. I have always been able to handle the two 35-minute commutes without padded shorts and maybe an errand or two. But other then...

plus this guy to push in the hose pin. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0D45QMWLK?ref=fed_asin_title

I rode 4 miles on my trek to get some blood drawn, and it's like a new bike. I rode on eco, and I can push far harder. or maybe now I know I can push harder. i think with e bikes they can cause you to not really push hard because you don't need to. Went on a 30 mile ride on the tandem and the...

it was 51 today, and the frogs are horny.

if you use it with a HRM on a e bike yes but without its not really doing anything but keeping track of what you do. With a power meter, too then it gives you everything. I found my Garmin with just the HRM did pretty good compared to my bosch with the power meter. on a non e bike the garmin and...

There you go free top-of-the-line components. not sure how a Garmin can help your health, though. Now my power meter crank arm sure.

I have gone up this hill for years 5 to 6 times a week. its about 17% grade. even on the tandem. on my new bike, I can do it with 400 watts at about 4.5mph without killing myself. Today I went around it to see how that goes. I don't know if that's why I only averaged 122 watts as I burned 400...

yes its tastes far better. but its a treat and it takes far less because the flavor is so intense. When I put it on my wife's pancake it is called a poop cake or SOS literally or dung cake. she does not appreciate that for some reason.

its great hazelnut and chocololate.

or go all out and use this its so food blows away nutella away. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CX5R39TV?almBrandId=hY0j6LN5aS&ref=fed_wwgs_yo_dp_ATVPDKIKX0DER_hY0j6LN5aS&fpw=alm

took a 10-mile spin on the e-tandem today after work. Now it feels easy so I had to turn it down to eco mode. burned 300 calories more than usual on that ride. so today, about 1000 calories riding.

it was about 39 today I always need my electric gloves below about 45, but now, even without power, they are too much real light gloves are more than enough. Yesterday I put on my usual base layer and long sleeve tee shirt and and wind jacket and balaclava when it is below 42 and was was...

The bigger cassette helped. I had to replace it as the 8th cog was too worn, and the chain was jumping. but I was able ot spin more and not push as hard.

Kinda more then I want I was tired. Just put on the 11-42 see how that helps.

This is crazy the ride home I burned 2x the calories I usually do. 150 watts average on this bike is not the same as on the trek for sure. I burned about 800 calies the same as on a 30-mile ride on our tandem. I didn ot even think of extra food, woke up starving in the middle of the night.

Man the difference between an average 155 watts on my trek and this bike is crazy. well it did take 15 or so more minutes but I burned over 100 extra calories. like 400 watts on my trek up a hill feels easier then 400 watts on this bike. its going to take time to get used to a regular bike its...

taco bell will firebomb you back.
