    Micro tune is the same as standard but 10 choices compared to 3 in my mind. I love control which goes against it being automatic shift. I believe this is not the bike for me because I like to shift so often to get just right feel all the time. This is now my brothers bike and he will get it as...

    What Would You Have Done?

    I am the biggest wimp I would have turned around , no need to press the circumstances for me. On the other hand if you wanted to walk swinging a hatchet/ax this would be a good place to do so alone in general , kind of where else would go for a walk doing this?

    Turbo Vado 710Wh Battery ?

    The cadence numbers in the green changes based on your settings . If you push the lowest button f2 it gives a cadence choice from slowest to fastest . 70 is about the slowest I think. I use 1 above setting “slower” How fast of a cadence do you need to 28mph ? I have hit it in the 90s but that...

The chain stay are the 2 beams or tubing running to the rear of the bike which end holding the rear wheel. And the problem would be as the diameter of the chain ring gets larger it brings the chain or...
