I have been wondering when this would start happening. We have seen this in other areas over the years, too. When I was in high school, CB radios became quite popular. I had some and so did a number of others in the area I grew up in. There were many companies selling them, but then they...

It would be interesting if we sold cars that way. Can you imagine a Class 1 car that will only go 40 MPH and a Class 3 car that will go 56 MPH?

I have often thought that Class 1 Vs Class 3 e-bikes are a strange way of separating them. I get the throttle/no throttle thing, but shouldn't there be two classes of e-bikes? Throttle vs no throttle, regardless of the cap on the assit level. For those of you with Class 3 e-bikes, do you often...

Our Gazelle Ultimate C380+ are Class 3 bikes. If someone were to ask, if I told them they are Class 1 and never rode over 20 MPH, most people would never know the difference.

Do you use AM or FM mode?

I only bring one radio at a time. Although I have owned Motorola in the past, I had sold those. More recently I bought one VHF and one UHF Motorola. I use a RAM Mount on the handlebars with a Panavise Clip Caddy. I also have a RAM Universal Belt Clip Holder for my Unication radios that have a...

As posted above, for the hams on here, are you bring any gear with? While I don't have a lot of equipment, I have started bringing one portable radio with me on my solo rides. It definitely adds to the fun!

Some extremists have even put out caltrops to flatten tires.

That is what I use. Even though I am in the United States, I bought a Canadian Apple iPhone 15.

DADT (Don't Ask Don't Tell) is the way.

I just asked my wife if she wants to switch our Gazelle bikes from presta to schrader valves. While I didn't get a definitive answer, yet, I will bring it up again at some point in the future.

Great points. I have two batteries for my fat tire Rambo ebike. If I am on an "out and back" ride, I pretty much make sure that whenever the first battery is depleted, plan on riding home after switching batteries. And, yes, wind direction can make a difference. I have had it happen where the...

My wife and I are also ATV/UTVers, in addition to e-bike riders. One of the things different for us ATV/UTVing vs e-biking is most of our ATV/UTV rides are group rides. The groups aren't always huge. Sometimes there might be only three or four others. I think there can be safety in numbers. We...

I am looking for one of these, again. An eBay seller has the 2400 lumen model for $59.95. Can anybody verify that this version uses 21700 batteries? Also, is it easy to remove and replace those cells?

I wonder if people were asking these same questions years ago with automobiles, too. There was no internet, yet, of course, but perhaps in some circles it was discussed. On the other hand, perhaps people had more common sense back then. Who knows!

What I know about wildfire mitigation I learned taking this course. https://training.fema.gov/is/courseoverview.aspx?code=IS-320&lang=en

On e-bikes, what components are the most likely to be unique to a given brand? I had new brakes, chain and tires installed on my Rambo a few weeks ago. I went to a local bike shop, but they are not a Rambo dealer.

That is a great point and this is a good topic of discussion. It is difficult to predict the future and anticipate with great certainty who will vanish and who will last, but there can be clues. In my lifetime I have seen a number of products become quite popular and then settle down. As a kid...

I have a Rambo Krusader 2.0. It is AWD, but I can select front only or rear only. I bought it because I live in Minnesota and I do ride in the winter. We do get snow here and it seemed like a good choice. They now have a Rambo Krusader 3.0. Like others suggested, test rides are a great idea...

Speaking of resistant to change, my oldest sister is 76 years old and refuses to text. Her daughter has tried to teach her, but she is stubborn and just won't do it.
