@ptegler, Jones H-Bar with 2.5-inch rise. The 45-degree backsweep helps the hand/wrist position enormously. Jones H-bars have a lot of room for accesories. If the rise and backsweep are not enough for you, install a stem riser or two while making sure your cables and brake lines are long enough...

I would heed @Stefan Mikes' and @6zfshdb's recommendations. In looking at your requirements, @newheights, it looks like you want a go-anywhere bike, which is not a bad bike to have. I would recommend a full suspension mid-drive e-mountain bike with plus-size tires (i.e. 2.8 to 3-inch) on...

I also don't like the taste of most water bottles. I invested in a Purist bottle (they're expensive!). Purist bottles are steel, insulated, and the inside is lined with a very thin 60nm layer of glass. Drinking from a Purist bottle is just like drinking from a glass, tastewise.

I live in a condo on the third floor. Fortunately, I have a storage unit in our basement garage that is large enough for me to store four bicycles: two conventional bikes hung from the ceiling, and two ebikes on the floor in tandem. There is electricity so I can charge my batteries there too...

We have two R1 helmets and have not experienced self-discharge when turned off. The second issue is a feedback loop. Sound from the speakers is picked up by the mics, is amplified again and sent out through the speakers, again and again. This will happen with virtually any mic and speaker...

I know the question is, "Which is better: one large battery or two small ones?" I will defer to the OP on his choice. However, for me, two batteries are better than one, and the larger the two batteries are the better. I ordered my Yuba Spicy Curry AT with two 500WH batteries. I wish it had been...

Can't you just get an app for your smartphone? I have two on my iPhone that measure inclination: iHandy Level and Measure. They probably have Android versions as well.

I ride the Yuba Spicy Curry AT (all terrain). Differences from the regular Spicy Curry: front suspension, knobby tires, Thudbuster seat post, longer reach (because it comes with a fixed stem). According to Yuba it can accomodate riders up to 6'3" (but a 6'-2" rider claimed it was borderline...

Level ground and downhill, for sure. I think it would probably work uphill as well, but I don't think I have ever been able to pedal uphill at more than 20 m.p.h. Can you? What kind of dongle do you have? Is it a bikespeed?

I installed a dongle from bikespeed.de, a German firm, on my 2016 Haibike AllMtn with a Yamaha PW motor. It was worked flawlessly all these years. I do not notice any difference in performance other than that I can exceed 20 mph with motor support. I cannot speak about other dongles, however.

You can certainly do that with the Peak Design mount. The cell phone can mount either vertically or horizontally. I have shot many videos with my iPhone mounted on my handlebars that way. The iPhone stabilization is very good. The videos it produces are very smooth.

The Peak Design mount+case is what I use. It's excellent. The bike mount comes with a GoPro mount, so you can have both a GoPro camera and your cell phone mounted simultaneouly, the GoPro in front and the cell phone in back. The case is part of a system; there is a car mount and a mini-tripod...

Power ratings by manufacturers are meaningless. Manufacturers don't tell us how they measure their motors' power, and each manufacturer probably does it differently. The easiest way to comply with EU law is to say that the motor has a nominal output of 250 watts, even when they can provide 500...

That's what I use. It's very solid and very quick to attach and detach. It also comes with a GoPro camera mount. You must use the Out Front Bike Mount with the Peak Design cell phone case, which is thin and well-designed. It's part of a system which includes a car dash mount and a nifty...

You're probably right. I was just trying to be helpful in providing @AHicks with a link since he said he could not find the electric Yuba Kombi. I am familiar with Bosch and Yamaha motors. I have found Yamaha motors to be much stronger than most Bosch motors. The one exception is the Bosch...

I use gears to climb hills with either one of my mid-drives, a Haibike AllMtn Full-Seven and a Yuba Spicy Curry AT. It's my reality every time I ride, not a fantasy. Many mid-drive cargo bikes come equipped with appropriate gearing for climbing hills. My Yuba has 11-46 teeth cassette, and...

Here you go: Yuba Kombi E5 Don't mean to steal your thunder @m@Robertson, but I happened to be looking at the Yuba website just now.

Try what @Tom@WashDC said first. It's a good, inexpensive suggestion. My daughter rides a Radwagon 4 and she ferries my granddaughter to preschool, so I am familiar with its limitations. I personally ride a Yuba Spicy Curry AT with a Bosch Cargo Line mid-drive motor. I have no problems riding...

Very cool, @fooferdoggie! Somehow I like the plywood version better than the solid wood one. The link in post #1 gives a price of $230 for the tools only. How much is the case? Not that I service my own hubs, but I do appreciate fine tools.

I agree with you. I also have a 2016 Yamaha PW motor with over 15,000 miles and no problems. Nevertheless, I had the seals and gears replaced as preventive maintenance. It's good for another 15,000 miles. It would also be great if Yamaha made backwards-compatible adapters so you could mount a...
