Brian(J) originally brought up this problem of adjusting the rear brake inner pad. It is next to impossible to adjust the inner pad without creating a DIY custom tool. Since Currie designed this bike, I would like to know from Currie Tech how they intended for the bike owner to adjust the rear...

I know I stand out in my hi-viz yellow T-shirt, hi-viz yellow helmet, carpenter jean shorts and Lands End slip-on shoes. But most bikers in my area are real friendly and wave or nod, even though I'm the odd-ball on the road. However, this last Sunday I was harassed by a couple of hard core...

I read so many great reviews about the Ergon ergonomic bicycle grips that I had to try them out. They are unbelievably comfortable! It's so nice to have various grip positions. I find the end bars to help give more power to the legs in climbing hills. The ones I got are the Ergon GP5-S with long...

That's what a fellow bicyclist said to me today when he stopped to talk to me. I had passed him resting on the side of the road on my way home. As I walked to check the mail at my mailbox he caught up with me. He stopped to inquire about where did I get such a bright tail light. He told me that...

I just got my Schwalbe HS440 Marathon Plus tires from xxcycle.com. Unfortunately, one of the tires has a manufacturing defect and I'm not sure if it's safe to ride on. So I contacted Schwalbe customer service about the problem and sent pictures to them. Well, they came back and said because I...

If I were to buy a bike base solely on it's design look, it would have to be this BMW. As soon as I saw it I feel in love. It's not just an e-bike, it's a work of art.

I happened across this Technical Bulletin for the Dash Bottom Bracket and thought it might be of interest to the group. https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B96dkFgH-zxuTEd2b2NoNXNxeWM/edit?pli=1

For many years I rode recumbents and while they were fun to ride, the hills were always brutal. What a chore trying to balance a bike at 3-4mph while pedaling uphill in granny gear. Later, I bought a comfort bike hoping I could stand and pedal up the hill. For some reason, that standup...

When I first rode the IZIP Dash, I knew I would be more comfortable if the handlebars were slightly higher and closer. However, my first look at the cables made it seem like a difficult task without replacing some cables. Fortunately, with a little cable rearrangement I was able to raise the...

I really love this seat post. It rides really well. I got the 31.6mm version along with the heavier spring that supports 220 to 264 lbs. There's an adjustment on the seat post bottom to fine adjust the spring. It appears to be made really well. The pins and frame are all solid with brass...

I know that there are rear racks that are designated for disc brake bikes. However, after looking at several pictures of the Dash rear wheel area and seeing how the brake assembly is mounted forward instead of upward, it appears that any standard rack should be able to be mounted to the Dash. It...
