    Xpedition review.

    I got one. The original tire weighs 1.27kg and the rim is 50mm inside width. I did some tire swapping and the xpeditions rims diameter seem small. The original tire came off super easy. The new tire came off another bike where it was tight. That tire was difficult to remove from that bike but...

    "Current-based" cadence-sensing from Ride1up

    I just went on a very windy ride. My Ride1Up 500 does give full power at any cadence. There is no speed limit per PAS level, only a global limit which is fixed at 45kph on PAS. The throttle speed limit is adjustable. It does have a couple of seconds acceleration ramp after the cranks turn a...

    "Current-based" cadence-sensing from Ride1up

    I meant to say the number of PAS levels and their percents are programmable. You can choose 3,5,7, or 9 levels. Each level is programmable 1-100% if I recall.

    "Current-based" cadence-sensing from Ride1up

    I have a Ride1Up 500 Series bike. What they are describing is not new. The PAS levels and are programmable, so I chose 7 levels that I set at 10%, 15, 22, 33,50,75, and 100%. When on the 100% PAS level the wattage display goes up to 1040W with a fully charged battery and 900something watts on a...

    I dont plan on using the visor. I wear a thin cap under the helmet: https://www.amazon.com/GADIEMKENSD-Adjustable-Reflective-Performance-Repellency/dp/B071XVHB3V/ref=sr_1_2?dchild=1&keywords=running%2Bcap&qid=1620781515&s=outdoor-recreation&sr=1-2&th=1

    Fourth Best Helmet Half-Priced

    I have other XL helmets that are snug front to back The Stomp ski helmet is uncomfortably tight, the worst. I have a Smith Maze XL snow helmet that is snug, I cant fit the thinnest of balaclavas under it. The Specialized Tactic L is snug. I have a Specialized Align 2 XL that has plenty of room...

    Fourth Best Helmet Half-Priced

    I ordered the classic fit. The part numbers on the box indicate it is classic fit. I dont see any labels on the helmet itself to confirm that. The manufacture date is Jul 2022

    Fourth Best Helmet Half-Priced

    I got the Tactic helmet. It is a large, Classic fit, but kind of snug on me. They say it goes to 24.5", I say no one above 23.5" should buy it without trying it on first. The fore/aft direction is where it is snug. There is plenty of room on the sides. The visor comes off easily.

    Fourth Best Helmet Half-Priced

    I'm pretty sure the visor is removeable. They sell replacement visors https://www.specialized.com/us/en/tactic-visor/p/117099?color=214674-117099 Yes it looks dumb and I will remove it. There are several other helmets half-priced. I have the align 2, it is highly rated, inexpensive, all good.

    So what's the guess on the new Lectric ONE product coming March 12?

    Thanks for the gear calculator, Ortek. I didnt find any pinion front sprockets larger than 39, but did see some 19 and 20 cog rear sprockets. https://www.gatescarbondrive.com/products/rear-sprockets?toothcount=19 https://www.gatescarbondrive.com/products/rear-sprockets?toothcount=20 The...

    So what's the guess on the new Lectric ONE product coming March 12?

    OrTrek: Yup, you're probably right. With it's 39 chain ring and 24 rear cog, looks like about mid 30's gear inches in gear 1 to 110-115 gear inches at gear 6. Will be interesting to see some hill climbs, but looks like it's built for speed. How did you calculate the gear ratios? The info I...
