    Walmart bike in stock !!!!

    Just ordered this rack today. I'll keep one in Yuma and the other in Oregon. They're so inexpensive: 4 for the price of 1 Trek rack AND rated for 200#'s - which the Trek is rated at 160#. Also this rack has a bend up so it doesn't bottom out like the Trek.

    RC-S battery discharge during storage!

    Left my RC-S in Yuma and took the battery home for safe keeping. Voltage was 52.68 two months ago. Voltage today is 52.69. I bought two Luna chargers because of all the hype "charge the batteries to 80%". One for my R1U 700 also. Just wanted to let all know that the battery doesn't appear to...

    Tire pressure monitors

    I hated to test the air pressure on my bike tires. No way could I use any of my assorted tire gauges without loosing a lot of air. The air volume in these little tires don't allow for any mismatch of the gauge and valve stem. I installed these today...

    My 700 battery got increasingly more difficult to remove/reinstall.

    Had to pry out the battery yesterday. Then could not get it back in. I fiddled and fiddled . Finally had to lay on my back and found that a screw on the right side of the lock had worked loose and was the problem. It took a year of getting progressively worse and worse. Towards the end I had...

    S mode on RC-S?

    Finally printed the 36 page LCD manual and page 11 gives info on S mode which I find interesting. No mention if it consumes much more battery than , say 1, 2, or 3 mode. Anyone messed around in S and can give their experiences?

    Help with dimensions for an adjustable stem riser

    I measure my 700 handlebars at 30.47mm and the stem at 30.5. Don't see any risers on Amazon that works with these dimensions. Is there any tolerance? Anyone bought one that can give me a tip?

    Raise handlebars?

    I promise I did a search before I posted. I need to raise my handlebars. I think 4" will suffice. If you have done it please give a detailed explanation. Thanks

    Auto sensing brake light. Junk? or OK?

    Bought a cheapo from Aliexpress and it really worked - for one whole day. I like the concept but I'd like a better quality. Anyone having any better longevity?

    Didn't think I could improve on my 700, but.....

    Didn't think I could improve on my 700, but... Never did like the location of the display. Hated the downward angle. I'm a guy who has to have things parallel, level and square. So I moved the display to the RIGHT side of my handlebars. It's easier to read and get to the buttons

    What stem for a 700?

    I'd like to get a more upright riding position and think an adjustable stem would do the trick. My 700 did not come with one. Just wonder what dimensions you used to order one?

    Thought all you guys who needed a suspension seat post were cats !

    Same road but with a Thud Buster ST seat post. Night and day difference. $140 on eBay. It pains me to admit that my posterior has gotten more sensitive as I've aged. BUTT it's true. Won't sit upon another bike that isn't rear suspended. Really don't think the brand or mechanism is arguable...

    Wonder who this could be?

    Looking for Lunaw bike reviews and this comment showed up. "An unnamed reviewer from the leading ebike review site offered to review the Luna Apex for the cool fee of $750 and a free ebike. To me this seems downright dishonest. How can you possibly produce an objective review of a product when...

    Odometer? on RC-S

    How are you guys reporting "miles ridden to date"? I don't find an odometer reading on my display. Just a trip gauge.

    What happens if you forget to push OFF on the battery?

    If you set the display to turn OFF in 10 minutes does that also turn OFF the battery power button?
