Success, found a sanding block for drywheel while scrounging, scrubbed the heck out of them masked and hit with spray paint, the result? Terrible! the decals are gone, wanted to try magic goo removers, couldnt find any in town, So today, the heck with it have to get on with life.
Battery guage level has stopped working correctly, basically ran out of juice, 60# bike no fun to pedal on incline, after the battery shut off and I ran out of pedal power, it occured to me to power system off and let the battery recover such as it could. So after pushing and riding down the level and downgrades I was able to get enough juice in low pedall assist to get most of the way up the big hills, final battery cutoff occured 20 yds from charging port.I will be more careful next time.I was used to running the 16 mile loop and letting battery fully recharge, well I got to thinking(dangerous) maybe it would be better on this battery to not fully recharge it all the time, well to make a long story short,I short charged it and made the 16 mile loop, then short charged it breifly before the 10 mile river run( did get in the water, no fish to be seen( thanks otters) I know unlike "Strek" I didn't kill any. During both ot these runs I noticed the bike wasnt responsive as it normaly was with a fully cooked battery
don't know why the charge indicator stopped being correct, there are no external battery condition lights on this bike. Funny thing I noticed about the river water as I was getting out I scrubbed the best I could and it seemed the river water had removed so many toxins from pesperation my armpits didn''t stink for over a day( till next home bath) I can scrub and bathe at home using bodywash and any deodorant and anti perspirant and my armpits are screaming within 4 hours,I think its the medicine I take now. Did notice products containing zirconium work a lot better than Aluminum clhorhydrate( avoid Aluminum whenever possible)
