    Help with deciding on E bike

    The Logan has 28 inch wheels. Bill 700c rims on the Logan. Tires are labelled 47-622, 700x45c, 28 x 1 5/8 x 1 3/4. It seems that a 29 inch tire uses the same rim diameter, just a larger tire. Bicycle tire sizing is confusing. http://sheldonbrown.com/tire-sizing.html I did a rollout on my...

    Tried that, no response. Is there a place in North America that stocks this controller?

    After much research, I am sticking with the stock components. The bars and brakes are better than what come with most ebikes. The only thing I took off the bike was the saddle, and there was nothing inherently wrong with it, just had to have a Brooks leather saddle. Purchased a B72, no...

    It is ridiculous for sure. Found a webpage that expounds upon this. http://andiamnotlying.com/2008/alert-ween-ups-has-trademarked-the-color-brown/ "This changes EVERYTHING. This can’t be possible. It’s like that one Superman comic where Mr. Myxtlplk copyrighted the alphabet and bankrupted the...

    Help with deciding on E bike

    The eProdigy Logan I purchased is treating me well. Now if it would just warm up! The Logan is not a small bike. I've never been as tall as you and doubt I ever will be lol, but at six feet tall, the bike is as large as I would ever want it to be. I will say, consider a Brooks saddle no...

    Hoping for a Cop Car when SOMEONE ELSE is driving crazy?

    As the video is set to private, it is hard to form an opinion. People driving slow in the passing lane are annoying. Tailgating at speed is reckless and life threatening. Mangled cars and deaths are devastating. Along with SMSM (Signal, Mirror, Shoulder, Move), our driver instructor taught us...

    Hoping for a Cop Car when SOMEONE ELSE is driving crazy?

    Slower Traffic Keep Right. Nothing more annoying than someone passing in the left lane, with their cruise control set to one mile per hour above the car they are passing. Signal, Mirror, Shoulder, Move, ACCELERATE and pass, repeat processes to get back into the slow lane. Cruise control should...

    LOL, awesome! I was from theory, you have proved the theory! If you want, you can always add on a cycle computer to the front wheel for registering true speed and mileage.

    Just a suggestion, upgrade your stem and handlebars at the same time. Something like an Easton EA70 bar. Does the whistler have an adjustable stem? If it does, by now you have learned what angle you like for a stem. A one piece stem is stronger and lighter. If you wish to remain with an...

    I'm unsure of that, still getting my bicycling legs under me lol. Just working from theory right now. There is still icy patches on our streets, I need to get my confidence level up in the next week or so before I dial it in. I do know that the Logan, on a flat straightaway hits 40 km/h...

    No Joke. The computer will display a lower speed if you program it for a smaller tire. Consider what happens when I run a 29 inch wheel and set the input on the cycle computer for a 20 inch wheel. For every revolution, computer will calculate the bike is traveling 3.14 x 20 = 62.8 inches. The...

    Want some more speed? Program your computer to 20 inch wheels. 29/20=1.45 1.45 x 40 = 58 kh/h (Logan with the 29 inch wheels)

    The lights on the main battery pack indicate the state of charge. Yours looks like it has plenty of charge. I'd say you have done the basic troubleshooting. The J-LCD does not turn on when you hold down mode button for three seconds? You have already taken the main battery pack off out and...

    Fenix Headlamp is in, BT20. I'll work on a method of mounting it to the front basket I put on. http://www.fenix-store.com/fenix-bt20-led-bike-light/ Ordered all my other stuff through Redbikes in Edmonton. The headlamp I sourced elsewhere. Being able to replace my own batteries and having...

    I gonna try to catch up to your mileage lol. The Kenda tyres that came on the Logan are pretty good so far. Hey, lets race! My 29 inch tyred Logan goes faster! For a person just starting out on a bicycle again, you will have to give me headsart ok? Nice thing about just starting out again...

    The bike is working very well, it's been snowy and cold here, Only wiped it out once lol. It's been a long time since I put a pedal in motion, and this thing is like a jackrabbit! I have nothing to compare it too other than 15 years ago when I rode a bike, and these hills would have done me in...
