Slowroller: I read your link which explains the Anti-Ebike reasoning why Ebikes should not be allowed on BLM non-motorized trails. Hopefully their argument against allowing Ebikes on BLM non-motorized trails will fail due to the positive benefits of the public using an Ebike on existing BLM...
G: Have you ever heard of the word Ageist? An Ageist is a person who discriminates against old people who ride Ebikes to improve their health and hopefully live longer.
With all this Covid mask wearing stuff going on you would think Ebike haters would understand that.
This is some US National BLM Ebike news ( E-bikes on public lands | Bureau of Land Management )
that I was given by a junior BLM recreation specialist in the state of Utah.
Upon reading it I was encouraged that individual Field Offices can allow Ebikes in their jurisdiction on non...
Park City, Utah. In St George Utah riding Ebikes on non motorized trail out side of the Wilderness is tolerated.
I spoke to a BLM representative today who indicates their organization is working on a new Ebike policy, as of today nothing has been formulated.
I am jealous of how Ebiking is...
So whenever I come across an outright Ebike hater, I ask them if they have considered taking some time to reduce their hate towards a growing part of the mountain bike community who has found it beneficial to acquire a Class1 pedal assist Ebike to keep up with their spouse or younger friends? I...
Slowroller: So thousands of Ebikes are being ridden in Moab each year and the local BLM has decided to not ticket Ebikes on BLM trails in the Moab area. Why do you think they have decided not to ticket Ebike there?
It’s pretty obvious that rather than argue with the local Ebike haters they...
Giff Stans dart are great they are just very expensive compared to the rope and Gorilla glue fix which fixes 99% of our flats.
I also have been making my own latest sealant for over five years now with carpet glue. I costs $13 a gallon and works great. I mix the adhesive 3 to 1 with water.
Am: my understanding is that Ebikes are allowed on all BLM non motorized trails in the USA, unless the head ranger limits their use in his or her district. One of the most popular BLM areas in the US is Moab. As of two months ago not one Ebike citation had been issued on all Moab BLM trails...
Mad our experience when using Gorilla glue gel along with a rope plug is that there is a better chance the fix will not leak than if we didn’t use the Gorrilla Glue Gel.
Butane I ride in an area that has a lot of up and downhill riding. I ride my wife’s SL on occasion when she goes skiing or pottery class. Her bike has the original NX group which works great going up gradually steeper uphills or downhill. She has a total of 3,733 miles on it, and the chain...
I had to purchase a new E8000 motor for my Ebike. The motor came from Sweden, so the top assist speed was 15.5 mph. Thankfully Shimano was able to change the top assist speed to 20 mph.
I personally don’t think having a top assist limit of 20 mph, is going cause more user conflicts than the...
Where I live we use custom slime rope plugs made from a car tire plug kit for stubborn tire punctures. We cut the custom rope plugs out of the 1/4” tire plugs. You can buy the whole tire kit at Walmart for $5.88 which makes over 25 bike plugs. Then we use Gorilla super glue Gel on the rope to...

I am trying to split the case and I am curious if you think using a utility knife with a very shape blade would be an appropriate tool to use to spilt the case? I don’t have any automotive trim tools.
Is there any special spot on the case that workbetter for starting
to try to split...
Marty I am also interested in obtaining those two bearing numbers. I just had my new E8000 warranty replacement motor installed in my Ebike and the bike shop who did the installation let me keep the E8000 motor that had the E010 error code. They indicated the bearings were worn out in the...
spr0ket I thought I saw a list of all the bearings you ordered, but I can no longer find it in this recent post. Can you please direct me to it. Thanks
