While camping in the Redwoods I found a new trail system in Cutten CA. The McKay track.

After getting real tired of emptying our 42 gal waste tote 340 lbs full at the campground every other day I decided to try an experiment. My back has fractures and hurts like Hell to pull this thing 60 yds to the dump station. So as they say necessity is the mother of invention. I attached the...

Freaking Cool Man!

get well soon. i crashed on a morning commute in Honolulu back in 1987. Early morning with road slicks on my stump jumper. I was trying to negotiate a right turn on a greenlight making a big sweeper turn, and the bike went out from underneath me.(wet crosswalk paint) luckily there was very...

I found a regular pair of the original MechaniX gloves, and a pair of fleece thinsolate gloves over the mechanix gloves blocks about 99% of cold and wi d, and I still have full use of controls. I'll try it for awhile before I invest in anything else. I just bought a 2 pack for $19.00 @ sams.

Sounds like a wonderful morning in Nor-Cal.

Welcome to the forum. Nice bike and mods.

Thanks for the info, it all makes since, and the durability of my bike is a bit of a concern. The chain stay on the right side does have a preformed (dimple ) near the crank ring. I'm still not convinced I have the right donor bike. I may look at something else. Thanks again for the in depth...

Excellent advise. I'm not going to rush with this conversion.

I'm from Eureka,CA born and raised. That's where I've been riding forever. I know the area you live in. I was just there a few months ago. Enjoy the weather there this Winter. Definitely warmer than Antarctica er I mean E.TN. ;-)>

I'm new to electric bikes, so I only have my new ep-2 pro to compare to. Wasn't sure if I would enjoy ebikes, but now I know, and I'm hooked. I thought my biking days were over when we moved to the mountains 7 years ago. I tried , but just couldn't ride the long hills anymore. I all but gave...

Thanks for the info everybody.

I have no idea. I'm here to learn.

Thank you kindly, and thanks for the hands on experience info. I must be doing the right comparisons, because I came up with what you did. Ya I'm just going to wait and see about the cyc, and continue to gather Info and eventually build this Winter. Thanks again.

As I stated it's a Shimano nexes 7 speed IGH. not sure of chain size, haven't measured it yet. Thanks for the response.

I would like to convert my 2010 Jamis 2 commuter to electric. The bike is aluminum and weighs approx 28 lbs. It has a shimano nexes 7 Internal gear hub. The brakes are linear type and stop better than any bike I've ever ridden. My AO is East Tennessee. Very hilly with few flat areas. My...

Amazon has these and others.

Looks like fun, but way over my comfort level. Cool pictures.
