    RAGBRAI 2022

    Sorry to hear about the Covid scare! Yep, I just got back from doing day 2-7, SO MUCH FUN!!! Saw quite a few e-bikes too, even a mom carrying her kiddo on her Tern GSD, I'll dig up a pic!

    Parts availability for 2022 Como/Vado?

    You can take those part numbers and start surfing the phones for other dealers that might be able to have or track down those parts maybe? AXA has been around for quite a while overseas and are becoming more present in the NA market (Gazelle for instance uses them). Those locking parts will...

    tern hsd comfort for touring for tall rider?

    Hey Jeff! I'm definitely not 6'4" but have fit a few folks that are that tall to the HSD family. Which model are you leaning towards? It's worth mentioning that there are 4 lengths to the Physis Handlepost so you can get the bars in a better position for your height. The HSD comes with the...

    Opinions on a 2018 GSD S10.....

    Warranty won't transfer, but that doesn't mean the shop can't go to bat for you. Depends on their relationship with the brands honestly. Recently we had a failed Bosch drive unit out of warranty. They okayed the repair but the customer would have to buy the drive unit, albeit at a discount. This...

    Opinions on a 2018 GSD S10.....

    Hey there! Man from a dollar value wise that used GSD is a pretty good deal, even if you have to buy a new powerpack. Depending on where you live that lower torque motor could be sufficient. Those older drive units are plenty reliable, it's just the powerpack that's the concern at that age and...

    Cannondale Topstone Gravel Ebike

    Sure more weight saving but the point of a 650b size is to run a wider tire for more comfort and control when not on paved surfaces.

    Class 3 Cargo Bikes?

    I'm done engaging in the derailment of this thread as I answered the original question directly and was hopefully helpful. Ask someone in the industry? Been at it for 20 years and own a shop, how much more "in the industry" would you like? Nice conversion, has nothing to do with OP's question...

    Class 3 Cargo Bikes?

    Not sure what news you've been reading but the entire global economy is experiencing those pains, nothing exclusive to Yuba in the slightest. Their e-cargo offerings are fantastic and blow any home made thing out of the water. Different price point, sure, but there's no arguing with the...

    Class 3 Cargo Bikes?

    Worth noting that it's the Spicy Curry All Terrain that gets the Bosch Cargo Speed motor, the regular SC gets the class 1 motor. R&M offers all of their cargo bikes in class 3 variety. The Load 60 and 75 are front loaders. The Multicharger is a rear load. Also the Benno Boost is available with...

    Step through MTB options?

    Have you checked out the Bulls Copperhead Evo Wave HD? It's a hardtail w/dropper post, pretty capable bike with the Bosch CX motor. Currently they make it in a 48cm which might be on the small side. Later this year they'll release a version with the Bosch Smart System and offer it in the 54cm...

    Suspension Seat Post

    Both the Kinekt and Redshift make really nice products, a bit different in execution though. Glad you've got one you're happy with!

    [UN-RESOLVED, Again!] Specialized "Rider - I Don't Care" Support is non-existent, what is YOUR experience? (poll) (NEW SYSTEM IN PLACE 4-21-22)

    Sorry to hear y'all aren't having a good time dealing with them directly. That's the benefit of having a brick and mortar business. Email/call/text/walk in and you get my undivided attention. Dealers have much better, more direct, channels of communication. If you feel like your local shop isn't...

    Suspension Seat Post

    The intent with the Thudbuster was to smooth out bit hits on a hard tail so it's not going to do much for little bumps. The Kinekt is the most popular that I've found for smoothing out the ride, it's a bit more expensive but they're a great company with awesome support. The basic non dampened...

    Gazelle Medeo T9 Range?

    We're using the T9 Cities (Active motor, less power) as our early season rental bikes until the Arroyo's show up. We've had folks do 35+ mile rides and can have anywhere between 20-40% battery left. Hood River is REALLY hilly and windy and most folks run higher assist since they're on vacation!

    Cadence monitor

    I suppose if that's the ONLY piece of data you want, justifying the Kiox or Nyon doesn't really pencil out. Putting two computers onto a bike doesn't make sense to me unless it's a GPS head unit for navigation, but to each their own!

    Tern GSD/HSD: Do you load it into your car? How does it fit?

    Most folks that pick up GSD's and HSD's just flop the bars down and load into the back of their car/SUV of all sizes, as previously stated. You might want to check out the P9 Performance, it hasn't gotten much news but is a pretty neat model from a bang for buck perspective. It's basically the...
