    Sore wrist

    Look up wrist strengthen and stretching videos on YouTube. If you work on computers all day, you probably need to build your strength. Wrist stretching is the best way to alleviate soreness. Just make sure you don't get them too sore... you don't want to develop a tendonitis issue. Take...

    That would be on Par with the 3 year life cycle we see in a lot of eBikes

    Hi! Clansey sent me - I hired an eMTB, how to choose which one to buy?!

    Commencal is a good comparison bike for a Canyon. Take a look at their website and see if any of their models fit your needs. They also have a Second Hand section where you can get models a bit used and cheaper

    Built Emtb from scratch - Kirby Bikes

    He built the exact bike he wanted. Props to him. I bet he will enjoy that bike more, considering the hard work he put into figuring it all out. Anyone with a credit card can go out and buy a prebuilt bike, but to build one is cool, even if it's not something someone else would ride

    eMTB for a fattie

    18 stone is like the average American weight. You should be fine on any eBike as long as you're not riding like Cam Zink - there is a safety margin built into bikes. It's not like the bike is going to fold in on itself once you go slightly above a limit. You're going to lose weight after a...

    How much battery do you need on your next emtb?

    I'd like a small, inexpensive, and packable, 250wh Shimano battery to carry with on long excursions. 500wh is good enough the majority of the time for me.

    Massachusetts DCR set to ban "pedal assist ebikes" from ALL state park/forest "natural surface" trails

    I'm not sure how NEMBA operates, but in my state the MTB advocacy group is all volunteer and they're voted in yearly... Hopefully the clowns running NEMBA don't cause to much irreversible harm, because they're on the wrong side of history. Eventually ebikes are going to big in the US and...

    Sign o’the Times?

    Yes, someone needs to lend these clueless people an ebike. So much misinformation

    Massachusetts DCR set to ban "pedal assist ebikes" from ALL state park/forest "natural surface" trails

    I agree. Plus, by the time the average person in the US knows what an ebike is, motors could be almost totally silent and so well integrated that only the discerning MTB fanboy will be able to tell the difference between it and a non-assist bike... then how are they going to even police it if...

    Massachusetts DCR set to ban "pedal assist ebikes" from ALL state park/forest "natural surface" trails

    The anti ebikers need to smoke,chill out, and open their mind

    Massachusetts DCR set to ban "pedal assist ebikes" from ALL state park/forest "natural surface" trails

    It would be sweet irony if the people championing the ban got a condition that didn't allow them use of a regular bike, and they had to use bike with pedal assist or give up the hobby

    Anyone bought a cheap (reasonable quality) handlebar cam?

    Might be more fun to rig up a loud ass horn to mess with drivers who misbehave.

    Front shock question

    General rule of thumb - for every 10mm increase in axle to crown height, you'll raise the head tube angle about .5 degrees

    Ultimate Commuter Tyre

    Not sure but i had the idea of doing them ghetto tubeless, or being really lazy and just unscrewing the tube valves and pouring in some sealant. haha

    Ultimate Commuter Tyre

    I've been running the 2.8" Vee Rubber T-Fatty's on mostly tarmac. They grip crazy well on the street, because they're so huge. I think next time around i'd probably get Schwalbe Supermoto 2.4" to shed a bit of rolling weight Also, i think any of these tires would work well in gravel. I've...
