Can supplementation help your Ostioporosis problem? Either way, just ride carefully, pretend you are riding with out a helmet on. Yah, like in Yosemite, we took it easy....most of the time.

It's sounds like your test rider was having a blast. It's a whole new world to have a throttle actually control your bike instead having so little power that the throttle is used as a go/no-go switch.

Now stop it you brute, you're giving me hot flashes
And yeah, responsive, proportional throttle control is great. Programmable throttle curves and silky smooth and silent sinewave controllers really are a great step forward. Not that the old square wave controllers were noisy, especially next to chain drives, but I love the way they move away, like you're perched on top of a hill and have just let your brakes off

I'm sure torque throttle is a step up, but I was referring to the guy riding a high power bike vs what he was accustomed. With low power ebikes you just twist it to WOT and zip away. Do that with high power, especially on an MTB type wheelbase and saddle position, and you end up on your back.

Hmm...ok, I'll still probably care but maybe not near as often.
It really is amazing the enjoyment we can get from seeing our kids take to our hobbies.
3 going out today, you are one of them.micah78 said:RIX me me me me me me me me I'm ready,I hope your the right guy or I sound like a fool but on the other hand I know what I am ha.
