Ok, I'm back. Found it to be pleasantly powerful for the hub drive. 5 power settings, 1 negligible, 2 had enough to move around in city traffic. Above that be careful you don't run into anything. The frame and rack appeared well made. There was no throttle available to use. For beginner...

I see my local lbs is supposed to have one in stock. I'm going down to see if I can get a test drive, I'll be back!

I found a can of Dupont chain saver that is wax based. Using it on my motorcycle chain for the rollers though the chain is sealed. I still like the straight paraffin on the bicycle chain. The canned stuff seems to be too runny and the virgin oil/paraffin mix 'stays' better.

I have a couple of the Thudbusters long travel, never a squeak. Their instructions do say to lube the mating surface of the rubbers. Just a thin coat of grease will do you.

Igloo makes a 30 qt. cooler that is the perfect size for the plastic grocery sack. I put a couple on my motorcycle and they are working great. $30 ea. Might be a little heavy for bicycle but they are about as light a cooler as you can find and they can keep your stuff cool on the trip home...

Specs say Specialized motor, is that the Brose or Specialized making their own motor now?

My apple updates are free, usually every month or two.

And I’ve given the mechanic a tip for doing an update even though the lbs doesn’t charge for it. They really appreciate it. Giving and receiving are one.

Also hinges on whether the customer base has other avenues for updates and whether all the dealers are charging. One dealer may not charge with the thought that it will attract customers or the idea that providing a service helps his customer base and goodwill. I'd suggest the dealer that...

I see a relationship here. The ones who haven't had to pay the $75 think it should be free. I haven't had to pay for any lbs updates and don't think I should, or would pay $75, unless it was something major. I thought most of the updates were just little stuff since it all should be sorted at...

Wonder how a wooden tooth pick would work. Wouldn't conduct electricity.

That's one of those read the instructions afterwards, afterwards you've fried the unit.

I was a pretty good runner, so I think of seat height as how do I want my legs bent while riding the bike. While sprinting, the legs are bent, if I get close to that everything seems to work alright. Also, I find the pedals on these bikes too narrow. I have spacers on all my pedals. Could...

I’ve got a bike path out front of my place. I watch people ride by and can tell how their bike fits. Like knowing a good horse or dog. Take a video of you riding the bike and post it up and see if any comments come forth.

I use a digital level to adjust my seat. One degree makes a difference, that way you know when or how much you have adjusted it. And if you suspect something has moved you can put the level on it and check. I like my seat height to be where I can sit on it and be on my tip toes comfortably at...

You need to hang a sling off a pole that is attached to the rear axle that holds your ass. Be kind of like an antigravity seat:) Or get a trike.

When you get it drive it like you stole it for one good trip then dump the oil and do whatever you want 😉

Wow. That's kind of like playing Twister:)

Here's an idea. I see in Indianjoe's post the slings can be made woven. I had a steel shop built that used cable for some of the diagonals, they made woven loops which was interesting. They peel the strands back and make the loop and rewove the cable, couldn't hardly tell where the weave...

Your link has the eyelets but no coating. I would want coating. My reference has coating but no eyelets. Otherwise same stuff. I would call them and tell them what you want. I have a long heavy square link chain but would prefer something like this cable. And I’ll bet they use a ss...
