Has anyone found an air chuck with gauge that fills Presta valves? There's the $100+ Park tool which I assume works great but don't want to spend that much. I took a chance with a PrestaFlator Pro. What a joke. The so-called Presta chuck leaks so much air it's useless. My Joe Blow hand...

Our Trek Powerfly 5's come with tubeless ready rims. I bought some Conti Cross King Protect tires. Went to Trek store and bought the official Trek TLR rim liners and Trek valve stems and sealant. I had a lot of trouble trying to get the tires to seat. The last one was the worst. Finally went...

I'm torn between adding to the "Known Issues" or starting a new thread. The "Known Issues" thread is kinda cluttered with replies etc. This is only going to apply to a year or two of Trek models. I have a 2018 Powerfly 5. The battery drops into a large pocket in the frame, where it's secured...

I'm trying to figure out the best way to mount a Topeak rack to a TREK Powerfly 5. On the seat stays there are a pair of threaded mount points. They're welded into the seat stays a few inches below and behind the seat. If these mount points faced outward it would make sense for a rack. But...

OK, I've only got a few SPD pedals and I'm already confused. First off, what terminology is used to describe the little metal piece that connects to the shoe? Is that the cleat? I think that's the right word. I've got three different cleats in front of me. H20, SM-SH51, & SM-SH56. I'm not...

Good morning to everyone - I've been wondering how people charge their e-bikes when RV'ing. I'm guessing the answer is pretty straightforward if you're slumming in a $400,000 RV with a bank of deep-cycle batteries and a big inverter. What I'd really like to hear about is the home-grown...

Good morning! I'd like to upgrade our Haibike and Liv Amiti batteries from 400Wh to 500Wh. Even if we never upgrade, sooner or later we'll be replacing the existing batteries. From what I'm reading on the forum, after 500 cycles or so. What sources have you guys found for e-bike batteries...

My wife's Amiti is less than a year old, still in warranty. There's been an extremely intermittent problem that I probably should not ignore. About four or five times now the LCD went blank and the motor cut out. Every time this happened, she clicked the LCD pad "On" button and everything...

The Liv Amiti -E has a Yamaha 400Wh battery. The battery is contained within a plastic shroud. Does anyone know if the 400Wh battery can be swapped out for a 500Wh? I found four Philips screws on the underside of the battery, but removing the screws did not release the shroud. Apparently...

Sure looks like it. Their website shows the Embolden and Intrigue FS bikes. No mention of the other two.

Good morning! A few days ago I was elated. Bought my wife, who's quite short at 4'11", a 14.5" Trek Women's Powerfly 5. Bosch CX drivetrain, 500Wh battery. I'd been looking for a better bike ever since I bought her a Liv Amiti. The Amiti is not the right bike for our local rails-to-trails...

Thought this might be worth passing on. We visited the Sequim/Port Angeles area the last few days. Rode various chunks of the Olympic Discovery Trail, a work-in-progress that aims to tie Port Townsend to Forks. All the way across the top of the Olympic Peninsula. One lovely day (air temp...

My Haibike HardNine 1.0 is only 400Wh battery. It has three boost settings. Eco, Std. and High. My wife's Liv Amiti-E also has three boost settings and a 400Wh battery. She weighs a lot less than I do so her battery goes almost twice as far. Our usual ride is 20 miles RT on a local...

CMC (carpometacarpal) is the most common type of thumb arthritis. The joint at the base of the thumb deteriorates, causing pain when grasping. I think years of shoveling, running fire hose, air-powered tools, etc. probably did it to me. Modifications made to a Haibike HardNine 1.0 medium...

She's 4'11" and 26.5" inseam with no shoes. Currently riding a Liv Amiti-E+ medium frame. I think the Trek Powerfly Women's 14.5" would fit her. We went to a Trek store and the salesman put her on a 13.5" frame. I think it was a Marlin? Plenty of standover. Then he tried a 15.5" frame. A...

I replaced the OEM 700c knobby tires on my wife's 2017 Amiti-E with some 29er tires. She noticed the trip odometer is off. Does anyone know anything about the Giant Charge Display? The Charge Display is simpler than the Evo Display. The manuals we got with the bike are not exactly...

My wife is currently riding a Liv Amiti-E small frame. Her inseam is 26.25" with no shoes. I'm wondering about the little 35cm Haibike frame. I'm told the 35cm HardLife is not available. What about the HardSeven? Does anyone have a 35cm Hard Seven? If so, could you please measure...

We're new to ebikes. I wanted to share this in case someone else runs into the same thing. My wife's Liv Amiti got soaked on the rainy drive home from the dealer. When we got home the LCD display wouldn't turn off. Pushing the "off" button for 3 seconds would kill the LCd for about a half...
