We planted a few hundred trees 25 years ago, and they've had grandkids now. BUT we recently mulched a few tonnes of their branches , using a diesel powered mulcher. About 4 hours of belching smoke - I feel guilty, but it's part of our fire risk reduction at home. At least I used my electric...

I've killed 3 sensors on my giant (2018) , it's usually the wires getting tweaked eg by sticks catching them, and they then give intermittent faults depending on rear suspension movement. Each time the dealer was able to plug my bike in and get a sensor error, but it's a relatively cheap part...

There ARE electric street legal dirt bikes, at least over here innOZ - but Sit down before looking at the price!

You have the basic concept correct - set sag around 25-40% with you onboard , then get the rebound dampening as quick as you feel comfortable with. On a bike that's going to be ridden aggressively, we have a trick for this - roll along standing in a neutral position, pump into the bike as hard...

Jeremy, your knees are going to love the SL. I'd suggest running the x/y power settings with Y higher than you expect to need. For example, I run 75/100 most of the time to protect my knees - if I need to pedal harder, I want the bike to match me. Stephan mentioned the yamahia / giant sensors...

Try setting your current bike to produce similar output to the SL and see what you think. I've been surprised at how much support I get from my (1.1) levo sl. They claim it doubles your power, but so long as I keep cadence up above 70 I can almost ghost pedal and keep up with unassisted riders...

If that's a KMC chain, you're removing the protective layer. "eBike chain are coated with KMC’s latest breakthrough in rust protection. EcoProteQ treatment doubles the rust resistance compared to the RB treatment. Benefits of the smoother coating are less noise, great performance, maximum rust...

So you're saying the gravel bike is their first inferior bike?

Lets be honest here. Gravel riders secretly want to be mountain bikers, and all the cool mountain bikers have droppers

Imagine replaying the original footage in a courtroom, but with the woman is a child that gets hit by the rider. There was enough time to hit the horn and swerve, she was able to react and get out of the way, but not enough time for the rider to stop? 30 years ago I had a distracted driver...

In his best maxwell smart voice....would you believe 5 mph?

Just to clarify, those zig zag slow down road user markings and clear stop here road user line - is that where the road user is supposed to slow down - stop and give way to pedestrians using the pedestrian crossing?

As per my original post, you could just write " edit...." then whatever you wish to change . It might sound pedantic, but if something is significant enough to be worth changing, I feel a bit annoyed to later find I have " liked" or even responded without quoting you. Yes, I AM aware you...

His observation about your high edit rate is easy to fact check - look back over the last 3 pages of your posts : 60 posts, 7 were edited later. I doubt it's alcohol related, but at such a high edit rate you might want to make it clearer what you are changing? eg " edit, you can't re write...

Does that mean his new name is on your ignore list? Just imagine how much fun he'd have as Stefan M1kes

Mine came with a range extender, I've only used it twice! I've considered removing the main battery and just using the range extender - just to have a slightly lighter bike. But I'm too lazy

There is no such thing as a good crash

I wish! She's heavy, and long, even a bit primitive, yet somehow threads through the hills in a way she doesn't deserve to. It probably helps that the previous owner sank the equivalent $ of a specialized ebike into her suspension / titanium headers etc.

And then you change up a gear, but more importantly -it's a joy to ride on a tight country road

Our outlets are 3 prong, some low power appliances only use 2 prongs so you can hold the beer in one hand and say " she'll be right, mate"
