    It comes from Pakistan.

    Show me your bike vans

    It is more secure, and keeps the rain and road dirt off it.

    Cramping. Help!

    More accurately, Pakistani salt. I just picked up some Magnesium Oxide tablets at Walmart. Will see how they work.

    Cramping. Help!

    Fighing fire with fire, eh? Or, more accurately, lactose with lactose.

    Cramping. Help!

    That's interesting, after a big ride I went on yesterday I stopped by to see my mom. I was talking to her about cramps and see recommended a products used called Theraworx. It's a foam you rub on your muscles when you think you may have cramps. The active ingredient is magnesium sulfate. I...

    Cramping. Help!

    I've had my ebike about 4 months and it seems for the last month or so every time I ride I will wake up in the middle of the following night with horrible let cramps. It seems like I would have less cramping after an ebike ride but that's not the case. I wondered if the fact that I'm spinning...

    Levo Gen 2 Hitch rack transport during rain

    I wonder if a passenger van would be good enough substitute for an RV. It seems like it would be much less wind hitting the bike.

    An Open Letter to all Mountain Bikers....

    Here in the US we mostly blame people riding on wet trails, but I understand that's kind of a sacrament in the U.K.

    What did you buy your ebike this week?

    A bunch of electrons!

    An Open Letter to all Mountain Bikers....

    Getting tourism interests on our side might accelerate the process of opening up all bike trails for ebikes.

    Never heard of them, but for that kind of money it should come with a lifetime guarantee.

    Review 2020 Felt Redemption 50

    They are great bikes. I've only upgraded the grips and put clipless pedals on, but have thought about a larger chainring. Wondering if this would require a longer, much more expensive chain. The KMC chain that came on it costs over $50 US and I put a $20 KMC chain on and found that it shifts...

    Levo Gen 2 Hitch rack transport during rain

    I don't know. I took a 5-week camping trip last year with my old acoustic bike on a hitch rack and I hated it getting rained on. I plan to do more traveling with the ebike and thought about getting a motorcycle cover for it.

    Review 2020 Felt Redemption 50

    I don't think I ride that hard but I've had two frame failures on Trek Fuels. Frames do fail, especially full suspension.

    Levo Gen 2 Hitch rack transport during rain

    Looks like water could run down the down-tube and collect in the bag, soaking the motor.

    Review 2020 Felt Redemption 50

    I had bike shop assemble mine for the warranty. You have to send the receipt for assembly to Felt to validate the warranty, also the ivoice from purchase.

    Magnetic Peddles for EMTB. Anyone?

    I don't know how comfortable the corresponding bike shorts would be. Let's see a picture of these magnetic pedals? Do you have to buy special shoes or are there attachments for traditional clipless MTB shoes.

    Flats or clipless on an e-bike ? Is it a good idea to ride clipped in ?

    Clipped in since day one! I've ridden with Time ATAC pedals on my last 3-4 bikes and wouldn't dream of not using them. There are times when I can see how it would be nice to have platform pedals but I'm a dedicated clipless guy.

    Reasonable Interstate Bike Freight

    I hear that Bikeflights is one of the most reasonable ways to ship a bike within the US. You might see if they operate in Oz.
