F@FWOW !!! You drive through Sage Brush?
Really tight. Beautiful.i like it thats clean here is mine
What a cool hobby. I envy that and miss the wildlands.F@F
I do mostly cross country trail riding, following cow/wild horse trails/game trails, sandy washes, around/thru rock steps/ledges etc, going thru sage brush (1'- 6' tall) isn't choice, you either go or stay on the 4x4 roads, there is none in the trails center,
but both sides are lined with it, the livestock/wild horses beat/knock off the small limbs, leaving the larger one hanging out in the trail.
It's these branches that will get trapped/pulled into the derailleur lower arm when going thru the sage brush, that will bite you.
I'll try to get you a photo to show you what's up...........
YMMV
Areas of soil in which the graboids can easily move through.Wtf is an alluvial?.
Priceless.........LOLAreas of soil in which the graboids can easily move through.
yes it has more functions that work for my needs & i use my phone for Mission control and Specialized Ride app.I can see you have simply reused the TCD mount for your Garmin!![]()
You seem to have overdone that with the wrist-watch!Inside of cockpit now looks like this.
Haha. My phone doesn’t have an “always on” feature. I guess I can add a digital clock. Wire it from my buck converter to run off the bike, but I kind of like the watch. I’ve had this watch for 15 years. I know it’s very weather resistant. Maybe, when I upgrade to a phone that has an “always on” feature, I can get rid of this watch and add something else. I’d like to have my coulomb meter somewhere there. I had that meter on another project and really liked the battery info it gave me.You seem to have overdone that with the wrist-watch!![]()
My heavy e-bike has the clock on the display, and my lightweight one displays the time of the day on my Wahoo computerHaha. My phone doesn’t have an “always on” feature.

Lol. I’m no weight weenie. Oddly enough, I wear a smart watch. I let it measure my heart rate and track my ride. Review the info later.My heavy e-bike has the clock on the display, and my lightweight one displays the time of the day on my Wahoo computer
Why don't you wear the watch on your wrist? Too heavy I presume?
.., but I kind of like the watch. I’ve had this watch for 15 years. I know it’s very weather resistant.
Yes. Mission Control can display the instant voltage and the current (amperage) during the ride. In the times I was carrying my smartphone on the bars, I looked those parameters up to determine the actual Max Motor Power (electrical) for the specific e-bike/motor, and that was 666 W for my Vado 6.0 (electrical power). Later, I discovered I could get an Excel history file for a recorded ride using the BLEvo app, too, and that file gave V, A, and W at any single moment of the ride (I could have those parameters on the BLEvo dashboard if I wanted). You can -- for instance -- get the actual charge of the battery expressed in Wh as well.or does mission control take care of that type of stuff for you ??
I hold the degree of MScDo you know what that means Stephan
Here is my “old school” take on it on my old analog Dekra shaft drive.
Agreed. I think it would not be cost effective. I want to get an 8 speed IGH and lace into this at some point, but for now only a 3 speed.I didn't know that there was such a thing!??
That's Cool!!
Why don't they make an ebike with a driveshaft and internal gearing?
Chains and belts can't compete with a driveshaft.
