    What happens to the gadget if ya hit it with a small hand torch? Seems like you could disable it pretty easily to me. On the other hand...if you had both then the scumbag probably wouldn't think to search the bike looking for a hidden tracker. Hmmm....

    I would not want a visible tracker on my bike. Easier to disable if they want to.

    Sherlock makes a decent one but I am selecting Swisstrack, it has a "geo-fence area" setting that alerts you if/when your bike is moved. I think this is what yer looking for. I also secure my bike with a heavy, square link ABUS chain and lock. Boltcutters won't harm either and a saw will take...

    Option B-hide a GPS locator on it. I'd rather get it back than know it was stolen.

    Help a noob? Stupid question.

    So I got some PMs from guys asking about other models and power packages that i will address here. Yes, you can pay less. A lot less. But you get what you pay for. A mid drive motor certainly puts more stress on the drive train and therefore drive train components are even more important...

    Soon this will be me! Of course, I don't hunt with a compound bow anymore.

    Help a noob? Stupid question.

    Almost done...bike is fully assembled and appears to work just fine. Have a local bike shop making some minor modifications to the bike & trailer. The plan is to add a couple more masterlinks and replace the stock bolts with quick-disconnects for the trailer's tire. My Ram is a short bed. Soon...

    Help a noob? Stupid question.

    Yes, OC is Orange County. As a life-long subject here in the People's Republik of Mexifornistan I'm unfamiliar with current regulations on ebikes but am certain there are a billion of them. <g> I work from home some 75-90 hours a week (for 15 years now) so am about as "socially distanced" as...

    Help a noob? Stupid question.

    I am assembling a Bakcou Mule with hunting trailer and am looking for a good place in OC where I can thoroughly field this bike for a detailed review. Prefer a place with some long inclines to test the torque and see if it lives up to the hype. This is my first ebike, took me two years of...

    How aggressively do cops enforce ebiking? Do they actually cite people for having too much power (assuming you aren't being obvious and speeding)???

    On & Offroader suitable for hunting

    I'm advised whatever i purchase should have a minimum of a 3000 watt motor, a minimum of a 17 amp hour battery, and preferably 26" fat tires, a front suspension and no rear suspension. I need to be able to pedal it easily with a dead battery.

    As little as I understand the technobabble, the power, gearing and suspension of the QK Fatkat is strictly for flatlanders. Might be good for bowhunters who need to run out to a treestand in Kansas but completely ill-equipped for the west.

    Looked at those but their weight and poor pedaling ability make em a liability. A lighter bike can be pushed if not rode.

    On & Offroader suitable for hunting

    I am an older. die-hard bowhunter who travels the west hunting bigger animals (bison, moose, elk, hogs, etc) and one of the primary issues we archers face is the weather. Archery season is usually during the hottests months of the year and you must get your meat packed out before it spoils...
