    I finally took my ebike for a test ride.

    You could mount the front hub motor so that it spins in the opposite direction... Now that'll give you some braking!

    I finally took my ebike for a test ride.

    From silicone grease.. to Slickoleum.. to posting pics.... The notion that less can be more eludes you 🙃

    I finally took my ebike for a test ride.

    I never used anything but the stock 46t chainring and guard... So I guess search Amazon and Ali. Seems there's a bit more available since I retired my BBS 3 years ago

    What Streets Should Look Like

    It's thought of as a toy because for the most part in the US it is. The landscape in the US is much different and much more wide spread than it is in Europe and so is economic mobility. In the 28 years I was in the workforce there were very few instances where commuting by bicycle would have...

    The transition

    In principle I'm against bailouts... But if you can justify giving them to financial institutions that are often at the rotten core of a shit_show... I'm perfectly OK with giving them to a business that actually produces a product. An auto manufacturer is a lot harder to replace than a bank...

    Impotent Rambo Megatron

    Testing the battery should be pretty straightforward. See if it will take a full charge. Then test sag under load. Temperature affect is more with charge/discharge... Not storage. That said, proper storage voltage is important

    Impotent Rambo Megatron

    Buying any DTC bike you better know your way around basic mechanical/electrical. And then... avoid proprietary.

    How hard can you push a Bafang Ultra motor

    I concur. I'd watch current draw way before speed. These motors love to spin and traveling fast adds cooling so you can probably run it all day long without issue. Now slamming high current in or being in too high of a gear is much more detrimental, especially when climbing. If you haven't...

    Aventon Ramblas is Nice 2026

    My neighbor across the street just picked up a new 25' garden hose. He really likes it.

    Offset Saddle Adapter

    Really hard to go by that with Chinese stuff... I've gotten knock_offs of a knock_off and the quality was horrible though visually almost identical. Other times I've gotten real bargains. It's a total crap shoot! Just buy from places that take returns

    Riding Time

    What do you expect from a bitch that's still crying over 2020. I've totally muted all of his 100 word vocabulary rants... which is pretty much everything coming out of his mouth.

    Entered My First Gravel Race........with the Frey Beast

    .... and I found the SJW's equally inadequate on paved surfaces. They are barely adequate for putting around and horrible at any speed or maneuvering. So much for the all purpose tire claims. That said I have a brand new pair if anyone is interested 🙃
