Hi gang, I have a bike from 2018 with a Yamaha PW-X motor and externally mounted battery on the downtube. (BH Rebel Lynx) The bike has served me well for 6000 miles. Recently, when charging, the battery does not take a charge, and after a few minutes will blink alternating the top and bottom...

Running a 10 speed shimano GRX-RX400 groupset. Looks like shimano doesn't make 10 speed quick links, which I like to carry in case I break the chain mid-ride. Will the KMC or SRAM 10sp quicklinks work just as well?

Hi, My current bike has 27.5" x 2.8" plus sized tires. The Etrto stamp is 70-584 on the current tires (Schwalbe Nobby Nic). I am not 100% of the Etrto on my bike rims, but I think it is 584 -38 (this is the only stamped number on the rim decal) I would like to buy a set of Schwalbe Al...

After a mighty struggle to remove the tire to replace a flat, I saw that my rim tape adhesive appears to be failing, and peeling off at the sides. I tried to straighten it up, and push the tape back on around the rim, but it peeled back off again when replacing the tire. Do these pictures look...

Have a 27.5" x 2.8" MTB tire - Schwalbe nobby nics. Went to change the tube and it took hours and was incredibly difficult. Pushing the bead towards the center of the rim to get it on and off required great strength and was almost impossible. Getting the tire back on was almost as difficult. So...

Going to pick up a tailgate pad for my truck bed to carry eBikes and regular bikes. My eBike is 50 pounds and I won't exactly be able to pick it up and drop it down over the tailgate pad. Any ideas/solutions for lifting the bike over the tailgate? I may have to build some kind of sliding...

My Yamaha powered eBike crossed the 3000 mile mark and I am starting to hear various creaking noises from around the bike, I cannot pinpoint where exactly. I am assuming some of the bolts have shifted a bit loose; I was going to remove each bolt on the bike, clean/degrease the bolt and the bolt...

I am looking for suggestions for a front headlight for rail-trail use in total darkness. I plan to ride the carriage roads in Acadia Park at night. Ideally, the light would be able to be recharged from a portable USB battery pack that I would keep in a front pannier, and can work to provide...

Just passed 3000 miles on my original MTB tires, Schwalbe Nobby Nic. When should I be replacing them? They seem to be fine. There is still some tread left. This is the highest mileage bicycle I have owned.

I am planning on purchasing a shell (or possibly softopper) for my short-bed pickup truck with a 5 foot length. The only way my bike under the shell would fit would be with both wheels removed. I am wondering what the best way to support the rear of the bike is, without the derailleur getting...

Shimano, Brose, Yamaha, and all the miscellaneous third party manufacturers are a huge pain to get replacement parts for in the event of motor failure, to the extent that your bike may be a brick. I have read countless stories of this over the years. Given that, why would a US buyer get any...

On a ride today, I got an error on my 2018 BH Rebel Lynx bike with a Yamaha PW-X motor. I am in the USA. The error pops up with a red light, and a message to check the speed sensor magnet. The motor power then cuts out. I can turn the motor off and on again, and it will work fine for between...

I have a bike with the Yamaha PW X motor and external downtube battery. I realized today that my wife left the battery in the backseat of the car for about 48 hours. Car is parked outside during the heat wave. It has been extremely hot lately. Temperature nearing 100, with heat index, 110...

A couple years ago, if I wanted a new acoustic bike, I would order from Trek Bicycle Superstore in San Diego, or Bicycle Blue Book. These locations have dried up. I am just looking for a fitness hybrid bike for less than 500 USD that I can lock up and not be overly worried about it getting...

Hi all, Wondering if anybody has experience with filing a claim for theft of an eBike, whether at home or away on a trail, through your homeowners insurance. What company do you use, and how were they in handling the claim? How did it affect your premium?

Thought I would start this thread, a lot of intelligent people here on EBR. What equity positions are you positioning yourselves on? For me, this year I am heavy into PLTR and DFEN. I am also building a position in BTWN. I am long oil stocks, specifically FTI, BKR, and XOM. Looking at a 5G...

Stumbled across the embn forums, they have a really active eBike forum. Its UK based, and mostly electric mountain bike related, but a lot of good stuff. https://www.emtbforums.com/community/

I would like to outfit my pickup truck with a tonneau cover and add some cross bars over the tonneau. I would like to mount the bike on these crossbars. I would prefer this to a hitch mounted carrier, so the bike is better protected up higher from the road. I figure a bike roof rack would work...

I have an insulated lunch bag, with an ice pack. I usually throw this in a pannier for the ride. The pannier usually ends up smelling of food, despite the lunch being in the lunch bag, which I don't like. I was thinking of bungee tying a small cooler to my rear rack, but this is rather awkward...
