IMO, with the pace of innovation/changes/upgrades in the ebike market and the proprietary designs of everything involved, you kind of have to look at the standards as a starting point to safety/performance, not a guarantee. Even a specific bike that gets certifications is likely to run into...

Hey, Pedal, All of my Fättie’s electrical problems (and there have been several) were caused by water. Well, a battery fire was caused by road salt and slush (and water) getting in the battery due to a design flaw in the case, but water is the enemy. Did you take any pictures of the rusted...

That is definitely funny! Seriously, signs for that? Too weird.

Awesome!

Moon rover, wider than a mile…. [sorry, couldn’t resist]

Twin, where are you located? Central MA has been done with accumulating snow for a few weeks now.

Gotcha’. Great, a robot sounds like a good thing for you then! Yeah, sorry, no experience to offer, 6. I would be concerned about the durability of the robot given the amount of mowing you’d be asking of it. Good luck. I hope it works out.

37.5 mi yesterday (3+ hours). Great ride; half of which was done with friends. Sadly no pix to share. Just happy to be back riding and out on the trails.

Good luck, 6! 7 acres? I’m not sure if I read your post right, but I don’t think a robot would be a good use for such a big property. While I’m at it, a riding, zero-turn mower is just the ticket for large properties like yours. They’re a lot of fun to use, by the way, and might make the...

Some of you have heard me whine about the rampant use of acronyms / abbreviations on the forum, particularly when I was a newbie. Anyway, this morning an email caught my eye from one of the online tool stores that I frequent: "The LBS results are in and so are the sales!" I took a triple...

Beautiful pix, Rás, including the flatbread pizza!

:) Sounds promising. Energy storage is the key problem to solve in order to enable decentralized power delivery everywhere. That would be a major boon to pretty much every aspect of civilization.

That saddle looks great, Chris. I really like the ergonomic grips on my Fättie. They came with the bike. I don’t recall any discussion about the BioKork ones, but they look very cool — and I bet they do look right against the Pinarello’s paint scheme. Do you like riding with rear radar...

Cheers again, all. Gonna end up about a 35mi. day. Just stopped for lunch. Some pix from the ride in Holden (first 2) and Sterling (last pic), Massachusetts...

Now that’s my kind of ride.

An eventful ride, eh Stefan? Some of which I’m sure you could do without. :) Glad your bike is back in riding order.

I hope that’s a positive sign, TofC. I suspect Lectric is looking at the competition and wants to sell world-wide (again). After watching a bunch of companies die around them, they are certainly aware of the risks of this business. I certainly wish them well, especially as the owners of...

I’m back on the bike! No pictures, but I rode with three friends and the rail trail is completely passable with no ice to put me down on the ground. 15 happy miles! Yay.

[ envisions E.T. scenario ]

Hehehehe…. Great, Rás!
