    Bike repair stand/rack/clamp?

    I bought the Park Tool PCS 10 and it works well but the bike is pretty heavy and a little difficult to lift and attach to the stand, so, I purchased a Harbor Freight 1/4 ton manual chain hoist. As long as you have an overhead beam of some sort that is high enough the hoist can be suspended from...

    Helmets

    My other helmet is a large so I ordered large for the Sena helmet. It fits well and is very comfortable and has a wide adjustment range. You would probably do fine with a large.

    Helmets

    I ordered the Sena visors with my helmets. They are overpriced but work well.

    Helmets

    Yes. The speakers are incorporated into the helmet and are above your ears. Your ears are completely uncovered by the helmet.

    Helmets

    For any of you who ride with partners, either ebike riders or regular bike riders, I just purchased a Sena R1 helmet. I have recently started riding with a friend and realized how difficult it was to communicate unless you were next to each other, so I started looking for devices that could be...

    I have the radrhino here in the UK. It has the rad rear rack and I want a topeak bag with quick release system. Can you buy the plate separately?

    I have factory racks on my fat tire ebikes. What I did was purchase the least expensive Topeak regular bike rack with the bag track. I cut the side legs off of the rack and attached the section with the bag track to the factory rack. It works perfectly when attaching the Topeak bag. The...

    Motor sounds from the Ultra FS

    I will listen to my motor when not pedaling the next time I am out on my Ultra. But the only sound I recall hearing is the ratcheting noise coming from the rear when not pedaling.

    Motor sounds from the Ultra FS

    Hi Mike. The sound I am referring to happens when I am pedaling and comes from the motor. The sound you may be talking about is a ratcheting sound coming from the rear sprocket which is normal, though noisier on some sprocket sets than others. You hear the ratchet sound when you are coasting.

    Motor sounds from the Ultra FS

    I actually tried a replacement motor and it was the same. This is a heavy bike (73lbs.) and maybe that is the problem, but I have not seen any feedback from owners of the same bike so I do not know if that is just the way it is or if I have a problem.

    Motor sounds from the Ultra FS

    Hi Mike. The sound is still there, I have 700 miles on the bike now. The noise is not real loud and has not changed. I guess it bothers me because I compare this motor to the rear hub motor on my other bike and the rear hub motor is very quiet. Bafang advertises the Ultra as virtually...

    Hi Patdow. If you are looking for good spokes check out https://sunnyspokes.com/ Check the gauge and length of your spokes before ordering. The spokes on my M2S Ultra Fat are 13 gauge. I had one come out of the hub several months ago and ordered a package of new ones. The original ones are...

    Known Issues & Problems with Addmotor Products + Help, Solutions & Fixes

    Hi Carl. If the bike is new you might try to contact Addmotor. They have always responded quickly though I do not think much of their advice or the way they give it. If you do contact them be very descriptive in describing the problem. If you have not already done so, check the wiring from...

    Radwagon 12G spokes and nipples. Available from Rad Power.

    There is a company that I have ordered spokes from (see link) https://sunnyspokes.com/. The company is an individual, a real nice guy, and has all gauges of spokes in black or silver and either will cut to the size you need and thread them or sell them unthreaded. His best deals are if you buy...
