I bought green titanium bolts for my disc brakes. Let me tell you this is the most exciting upgrade to date. I was impressed with just how much weight they save! ;););););) jeff

Yesterday I took my Powerfly out for it's first mud bath. There has been a lot of rain here in Northern California and some of the streams that are normally very small have GROWN into rivers. Here's a picture of me fording one at high speed. Needless to says I got a little wet! Great day. jeff

A few days ago I stopped by the Motostrano bicycle shop in Redwood City, CA. I played the roll of an interested bicycle aware customer, here's my review. Their shop is a standalone brick building in an older part of Redwood City. There are a few on street parking spots out front and a small...

If you are interested on how to install a rear light on your trek, check out... How To jeff

If you own one of these bikes you have a front light, but no taillight. Well, that's pretty easy to fix. I purchased two parts, a "Bosch" and a rear cable kit. Parts: 1) Rear Rack 2) (Link Removed - No Longer Exists) 3) Cable Kit 4) An old credit card cut into strips I removed the left crank...

The arthritis in my right thumb is just too severe to allow shifting using the Shimano Deore shift lever. I have found that they make electronic shifting that should be compatible with my bike. Here are the parts I am looking into. Has anyone else done this upgrade? SC-MT800, RD-M8050...

When I opened the box that contained the charger I found these. Any idea what these are, and where they go? Thanks jeff

In the box with my battery and such I received a circle decal with a bite taken out. It seems to match the cover on the left side of the motor. Do any of you know why they ship this extra decal? jeff

I was scrolling though the settings of the Bosch Intuvia yesterday... If I were to set the "wheel circumference" to a smaller value, wouldn't the actual speed be higher than the shown speed on the display? Wouldn't this allow the bike to go faster than the rated speed. I don't actually want...
