@melensdad so if you were buying now, knowing what you do, would you buy the one you have or the Venture jacket for a little more to get the remote? I've been looking at both, and some of the other options you listed previously.
Wife and I are just getting started with electric bikes. She hadn't ridden in 20+ years, then we rented some and she was sold! Hers has arrived, mine is pending a November delivery! For now I ride my analog bike with her, my electric needs to hurry up and get here!!
I got heated grips first as I wanted them installed from the get-go when I picked the bike up from the dealer. Great at setting 1 for taking the chill off, and at 5 they can keep my hands warm even in my winter snowmobile gloves. My previous ride did not have heated grips, and with just that...
Have these i brown and have 19k miles one them and multiple all day wearing, and even worn walking around. Break-in was minimal and they are so comfortable. I ride in all weather and they're not too hot in the summer and my feet have never gotten wet even when riding in torrential downpours...
Looked at it, sat on it, checked out the (miniscule) storage. Tried the CTX and thought that was a much better fit/ position. Got on the NCX and that was that!!
I have the Olympia Rain gear. My summer gear and my cold weather gear all have the liners, but if it's raining more than a mist I will put on the Olympia. I will also use it in the fog. The hi-viz just makes it worth the extra few minutes to put over my regular gear. I've had it for a few...
for $5 I also bought the proprietary to SAE connector so that it would work with my pigtail, just figured that in to the cost and thought it was still a pretty good deal.
Woot has the NOCO Genius G3500 6v/12v multi-purpose battery maintainer-charger on sale from $79.99 to $34.99 with free shipping. MUST BE A PRIME MEMBER
Works well to keep the bike (and other batteries) charged.
I have other NOCO gear and it is nice stuff, pretty well rated by others too...
Cleaned the snow off the bike cover. Again. Doesn't look like riding weather at all this week :(
In past years I've ridden past Thanksgiving, and one year almost to Christmas. Not looking good for either this year though, might be time to move the bike to the neighbours garage and put it...
No, school run yesterday (and today too), plus it's raining and with the temps starting at a high of 41 at 6am and finishing the end of today at 32 the bike is staying under wraps . I fully anticipate it to start just fine now that it's been on the charger for a couple of days. I do have a...
