Yes Stompandgo.... I need to see your papers!

I use to play that game as a child. May I? Yes you may 🙃

I find it amazing how some are repeatedly patient explaining common sense yet only to end up once again. 🙃

With almost certainty you'll have to fabricate one yourself... or find someone who will. That said.. Perhaps inquire with... GRIN Also that doesn't look like a standard ST3

No mater the subject... the DFP never disappoints 🙃

The few biking areas near me aren't necessarily preferable as they are often dry and dusty with a very fine powder that's abrasive. But gravel is great for landscaping accents, in an aquarium as a substrate or even as a filter medium and I use it in potted house plants at the bottom to keep the...

I have to disagree with you on the motor power going through the gearing. Yes your wife may be able to out climb you but her motor also has 3x the nominal rating. As mentioned I live in a hilly area as well and I often ride with a friend who has a comperable 1000w hub to my 1000w mid drive. At...

Don't know if this would interest you but one other buying option is not new Upway has many overstock and minimally used at deep discounts. Many with less than 100 mi on them and many more with less than 1000 mi. You'd have to check with your local shop if they'd service a bike they didn't...

As with all aspects of any bike... Personal use is a big factor. I ride aggressively on pavement and the Schwalbe equivalent, the Johnny Watts I found to be absolutely atrocious on pavement. Often breaking traction in tight turns and braking... and with higher rolling resistance and micro...

I think it was the upright position... Weight can feel more stable and sure footed but can also feel like it wants to plow straight and not as agile in tight turns. That said my 80lb'r is agile enough and you learned to steer a little differently and minimize the plow straight ahead affect. I...

Ok... Just understand a hub/torque is not a good climber. The Velotric allows you to switch between the two sensors on the fly so that can help you in keeping cost down with the hub motor. Given your condition... Treat yourself to a nice bike 😉

In part... there are different size hub motors. Then whether or not it uses cadence sensor, torque or a combination of both. Cadence usually allows the motor to climb more easily with less user effort but at the expense of a natural feel. Personally... Mid drive/torque sensor for the most...

I'm using a KMC e8 chain and so far I have 8000mi on It and it still hasn't reached 0.75 stretch. This on a heavy SUV style bike and a 1000w mid drive. The Rohloff manual shift does pair nicely with the motor. Honesty I may consider the E-14 Solo for myself if I ever get bored as the motor...

I learned this myself greasing my motor gears. Since I had the motor open I cleaned and lubed the spindle pawl clutch and used the same grease as I did with the motor gears as they are in close proximity and didn't want cross contamination. On reassembly I bench tested it and the clutch wasn't...

(the same people who buy Specialized) 🙃)

Same reason you don't use automotive brake caliper grease in an ebike motor as a lubricant. It's the Small Details Norton 🙃

Most of this is meaningless. My battery use can double just from weather and me being tired/aches. There are so many variables you really just need to understand your setup and how you use it. I often implement that strategy... But just with a single battery

Smaller batteries are just fine as long as you understand what it is. I repurposed my 480wh battery from my diy build to use with my new bike that came with a 1000wh. Since most of my daily exercise rides are about 25 miles it's more than adequate and I only use about 50% of its capacity. Keep...

Probably not what you want to hear... But I'd replace it with the manual shifter, they work flawlessly.

Yes thread locker... That's what I was going to suggest. I actually put a little grease on the spindle so the crank comes off easy for maintenance but with blue thread lock on the bolt threads they never come loose while I'm riding. Not familiar with your bike but as for how to use PAS.... When...
