I live in the city and use my bike to commute to and from work, and also for joy rides. I was extremely nervous about riding my bike in rush hour, as well as on suburban roads. It seems that a pedestrian or cyclist is getting hit by a car on a weekly basis. I didn't want to be a statistic...

Hi there! I haven't been on the forum much at all as I've been busy riding my bike and with life. I took your advice and purchased a different seat and locking hand grips. The LBS only had the Ergon ones. I don't particularly like them. I got the large size and they're still smaller and not...

I already ordered the newest model of the Kinekt from Amazon before reading your post. It was $249 with free shipping. I'm going to see how it works with the Mavaro's saddle. If I'm still uncomfortable, I'll look into buying a new saddle. On another note, I'm so glad the nicer weather is...

What's the difference between the 2.0 and the newest model?

I'm looking at the Kinekt. I've been watching YouTube videos and reading reviews. It's pricey, but it looks to be exactly what I'm looking for. I'm torn between getting that next or getting another ABUS U-lock. I'm afraid Im not versed enough in the technology to know the difference between...

Well, I broke down and purchased bicycle insurance from Velosurance.com. I have read other posters have this coverage, so I'm hoping this is well worth the money. As @jazz said, anyone with the angle grinder can defeat any lock. That being said, they will still need to have enough batteries...

@grnmtnbk my sales receipt says 700F. I have no idea what it means. If I remember, I'll ask them the next time I'm at the bike shop.

I like the looks of the bike you posted, but I'll probably be keeping my bike for years. My husband knows I paid a lot for it, but not exactly how much. I would like a mountain ebike, so I can hit the many trails we have around here, but it will take me a few years to save up this kind of...

Thanks for posting the schematic. I'm going to look into the Locking Skewers to replace the quick releases on the front and rear wheels. I think I'll probably end up with 4 locks total. And I'm going to get bike insurance. There's no way I can replace my bike if it gets stolen. It would...

At work I can stow my bike in the break room. But if I have an appointment or want to stop at a store, I'm worried about leaving my bike. Even when I get a third lock. For now I need to come home and swap the bike for the car or drive my car to work. I really want to be able to ride my bike...

I have an ABUS U-lock and I've ordered one of their hardened steel folding locks. I plan on using both locks, one to secure the bike to a pole and the U-lock to connect the rear wheel to the frame. I think I'm going to need another lock to secure the front wheel to the frame as it's a quick...

Taken on the Worcester -- Shrewsbury bridge over Lake Quinsigamond.

Thanks for the info. I'll have to find a licensed dealer and see what they say.

Wow! Very underhanded business practice, passing a 2015 as a 2016. And then to have an attitude about it. They could've at least apologized. I went back to the LBS regarding my derriere pain and asked if they had a comfort saddle I could buy. They said that I need to give it a couple weeks...

My Cannondale Mavaro has a phone charging port on the side of my Bosch control display. I'm wondering if I can do a firmware update myself, using a USB cable with a phone connector.

I was wondering if anyone knew where I could purchase an additional Bosch battery less expensively.

The bike shop I purchased my bike from didn't do a diagnostics that I know of, nor check for software updates. I did ask if the system was set to give me reminders for service and the gentleman said he thought so. The shop where I purchased my bike only had my step-thru and the men's version...

Congratulations on your new bike purchase! You're going to love it! I just started riding it to work yesterday. And after work I take the long, long, long way home. It is an absolute joy to ride. This is my first high quality bike. Every bike I've owed prior to this has been from Walmart...

So using the site J.R. provided, this is what came up. I'm not certain if that's correct or not.

Thank you, J.R.!
