I've had this for a couple months, and love it. Yes, it's heavy, and no, I don't notice it mounted in the center of the bars. I have also tried a large-ish GPS that I own, and the wife's little Garmin bike computer which is an absolute piece of shit. I wired this to my battery so it charges...

I've posted this before... Take the time they say it will take, and double it. Then consider doubling that, and also beer drinking time. Make sure you start early, outdoors with a lot of light. My shop lighting is bright, and yet not quite sufficient to really see problems before they get...

Man, those are some monster discs to put on a Rail. I upgraded just the rear on my ultra-heavy high power ebike and it made a monstrous difference. I think you'll love it. I also went to HH sintered pads.

Trying some 155 cranks to reduce pedal strikes on our rocky trails.

I don't know whether KMC makes Shimano chains, but the one I got was visibly different in design compared to the stock Shimano chain.

I'm actually just now talking to a riding/bike wrenching buddy and he said to note that we're talking about the KMC turbo EPT, and not the cheap ones that apparently they make. I'm not familiar with their line, just the one I upgraded to.

I recently switched from an 11-42 to an 11-46. In a couple of situations that's been better. I rarely need that super climbing power, but when I do, I do. My primary riding buddy has 11-51 and he says he does use it, but also says that he's barely moving in that gear. We both think the 46 is...

KMC chains are expensive, but worth it. Stronger than Shimano, and shifts noticeably better.

There is no licensing requirement to ride on the dirt as I was talking about in my post. It is already legal to buy anything and ride it out there, even for kids. Different laws would apply to roads, and already do. But the restrictions are meaningless, it would be more logical to just state...

How is that different from choosing to use your bike computer? I think you may be mixing up the concept of GPS speed that is displayed on a local device, for your own use, and a company gathering your location data remotely and taking it. Two totally different things. A device using GPS...

So the Garmin you clip to your bars doesn’t use GPS to give you speed and position? What a weird rumor.

I can't see any value in any local bike shops. When I got back into cycling as an adult, there were fewer online options and I wanted some advice to get started. So yeah, that had value. Since then? Why would I go back? It takes longer to load up and drive there than to do nearly anything...

Oh, yeah, transparency should be noisy for sure. I'm always in noise cancellation, except when I stop and want to talk to riding buddies. First world problem: Why don't they have one button to BOTH pause music and go into transparency?

I have both, and have gone out with the gen 1 a couple times, and that's the opposite of my experience. I have no wind noise issues when biking with the gen 2, and a bit with the originals. I'm totally confused by your statement "outside from walking, running and cycling." So what else is...

The gen 2 Airpods Pro mostly eliminated the noise in the original version.

That looks very much like the timeframe and location I grew up in. 1970s La Puente, CA. Across Azusa Blvd from where the huge Sheraton is now, which used to be my off-road biking and mini-biking area. I find the jumping cactus much less dangerous and unpredictable than the cholos/cholas.

I saw a reset procedure for the other Bosch displays, are you sure there isn't one for yours? The interval on mine is too short, and too long. At 250 miles I will have done the basic services at least once anyway, our environment is harsh in some ways. But I won't be doing major services for...

This is not an error or warning. It is merely a maintenance minder. Think of it like a car's oil change reminder, not a check engine light. Battery removal for a day has done nothing. I've looked through the phone-based E-Tube app, and there are no errors, only the maintenance minder. In...

Not just for the tires, removing jumping cactus from arms and legs is important too. So I've been told.

This is either a total secret, or dealer only. The latter seems ridiculous. I'm at 250 miles, and the little wrench icon appears around 13 miles ago. I can't find a way to clear it. Google it, read the user docs and dealer docs, looked through all the menus, tried various button press and...
