    Need Recommendation For A Lift To Work On Our Two Heavy Ebikes

    Nice but these sell for around AU$1,600 ... that is serious coin for a stand.

    Not an e-Bike ride today. Pushing the fatbike up very rough, step singletrack (rocks and pea gravel, which sees one sliding backwards more than going forward) in temps of 41 °C (according to the Wahoo Ace) is bad enough without trying it on the R&M Supercharger. A few shots of the more pleasant...

    From the Atlas Mountain Race Instragram: "Victor Bosoni is the first rider to reach the finish line in Essaouira in a time of 4 days 1 hour 46 minutes. At just 24 years old, Victor is the youngest winner we’ve had yet at AMR. There were plenty of unknowns for him, as this was the longest...

    Flicking through a sample of 100 riders, I was surprised by the number using the Coro Dura, with many commenting on its battery life. It claims 120 hours without solar charging, which is impressive if true. I didn't really consider the Coros when I got the Wahoo Elment Ace, but maybe should...

    True :) Light touring, for many, has taken a new form today: bikepacking, which means you may not need mounts (other than, say, fork mounts). Today, there are alternatives that do not require mounting fork points so that can be worked out. Bikepacking.com For many folks, a "true"...

    Wahoo ELEMNT Ace (on Specialized E-Bikes)

    I agree with you. I also feel sorry for the staff who were fired when the takeover took place. My ethics are such that I can not support such a business model. Each to their own, of course.

    Wahoo ELEMNT Ace (on Specialized E-Bikes)

    Well, if that is one's use case, then that is fine. As for paying for an app, that is a personal choice. Personally, I do not see the value in Komoot (nor will my ethics allow me to pay Bending Spoons), but I appreciate that it is a different choice for you. I am not interested in judging you...

    Wahoo ELEMNT Ace (on Specialized E-Bikes)

    Please see my comment posted previously. Your response does not change that experience. One you do not have to incur with at least some Garmin models, including the Wahoo Ace's direct competitors, the 1030, 1040 and 1050. Heck, you can even do this on the Hammerhead Karoo 3. That Wahoo...

    Tell me about it ... Way back when, I was riding a low-end Giant something MTB (pre-XTC) on the Munda Biddi Trail, and the bike started losing brake fluid. The nearest bike shop was a few days' riding away and in the wrong direction. The only 'solution' I could find locally from the supermarket...

    Wahoo support has suggested another option using Apple/Google maps. I am not familiar with Apple Maps, but at least with Google it is easy to save offline maps. See https://support.wahoofitness.com/hc/en-us/articles/25934007840914-Routes-Share-a-location-from-Apple-or-Google-Maps-apps-ACE.

    According to Specialized, and I quote, "LOAD UP, HEAD OUT: Take a little or a lot on any ride. Creo 2 Alloy accepts a variety of front, rear, and low-rider racks. Who says you can’t take it all?" Whilst it can take racks, a more lightweight approach to touring, or rather backpacking, can avoid...

    This can be addressed by using alternatives such as the Orlieb Fork Pack 4.1 Litre or the 5.8 litre. I have a pair of 4.1-litre packs fitted to my R&M Supercharger and have not experienced any issues bikepacking with them. Proof of Concept – LHS by Andrew Priest, on Flickr

    As far as I can find out, it is not sold in Australia. I did email the distributor about it last year, but got no response. I guess that says it all really.

    Wahoo ELEMNT Ace (on Specialized E-Bikes)

    I simulated my phone not having cell coverage (set it to flight mode) and attempted to add a location to my saved locations in the Wahoo app. It failed, which suggests this feature requires cell coverage. From my perspective as a bikepacker/tourer, who is often out of range, this is not ideal...
