Why not just buy a second battery and swap it in when the first is depleted.

Thanks for all the replies and info. Slight change: although the tires are marked for 35 psi, they all had 30. So i reduced hers to 25 and we out today, Rode part of the virginia capital trail starting at jamestown. She said it did ride smoother.

We have two Ride1Up cafe cruisers, with 26”x3” tires. The embossing on the tire says 35 psi max, so that’s where it is now. Wife is saying the ride is a little rough. We only ride on asphalt or packed gravel trails, nothing off-trail. I have her shocks set to the lightest setting, and i...

I have the yakima onramp for two ride1up cruisers, 65# each, with fenders. It has some quirks i don’t like, but it is a well made rack, very sturdy. I have no qualms about it holding my bikes.

Why are you still screwing around with him? Tell your credit card company you are disputing the charge.

Found a couple of those. Walking 3 abreast, with ear buds.

We would like to ride the Creeper trail, but it’s a 4+ hr car ride.

Wife and i are just getting started with riding, less than 100 miles on our Ride1Ups. Very happy so far. Virginia has several “rails to trails” parks where they converted abandoned railway lines to bike-hike-horse paths. This was on the trail in Lynchburg. If you know the area, it’s on the...

Ordered the new handles 5/12, delivered today. Looks just like the original.

Just ordered a lever, predicting 3-4 week delivery. Actually ordered a pair of handles only, no cables or anything. $30 with shipping.

Thanks, i have never bought from that source.

Harry … thanks for the tip, that’s just what i am looking for. Can i bother you to point me to a source. I have googled zoom brakes, and ebay and amazon, and i’m not finding anything.

Except for the color, that looks like a match. I asked Ride1Up and they sent me a link for that set. $138. Not going to happen. All i need is the handle. And actually, mine is bent, not broken, so i can probably get it bent back close to correct. I'm going to a local shop for something...

I wasn't aware that Jet handles would fit. However, i googled that, got lots of hits … but none seem to be the same configuration.

I dumped my bike on the concrete, scratched the paint and bent one of the brake levers. It’s a Ride1Up cafe cruiser. Trying to find a source for a new handle. Bikeparts.com has a nice selection of handles, but none branded Zoom, and when i sent a picture they responded that they don’t carry...

No, but there was a comment about one town that only allowed riding on paved paths more than 3-4 ft wide (i forget the exact number). That effectively limits the bikes to a small number of non-street paths. My point is that there are a lot of suitable paved paths that can be ridden on if...

Ever hear the expression “one bad apple spoils the whole bunch”? People have quickly grown tired of bike riders who ignore traffic laws buy not stopping at stop signs, who ride slowly 2-3-4 across to block street lanes, etc. Not all bikers do, but it happens. So along comes these new...

The first pic was taken from the off-side, had a little trouble seeing the details. So you roll the bike up the ramp until the front wheel is over the tailgate, then lift the pvc assembly and the nike and slide it into the bed … right? The ramp that touches the ground … is that a piece of...

6z … how does that pvc rack work? How do you use it to load the bike?

Ok, I have solved half the problem. I was riding today and it happened again … display was normal, showing actual mph and odometer. Then the speedo froze. Odo kept counting up. So i poked the o/i button to cycle through the options, and it cleared up. Default display is mph and watts, i...
