SRAM makes an eBke specific 8 speed drivetrain.

Have new in box Rack Stash that I've decided to not use. My rack hangs on a hook on the wall instead. You can read about it and see pricing here and here. Essentially, you lag bolt this to the wall and it provides a 2" hitch receptacle into which you can place your rack. It's normally used...

I did and found 2 videos with Electrek's Micah Toll. Both showed bicycle assembly only, not frame building.

Wouldn't it be more accurate to say that both Frey and Bolton are sourcing frames from the same factory? Like the frame for Luna's X-1 is a Dengfu frame. Or, does Frey really have its own frame design and factory and is selling their frames to other OEMs like Bolton?

Thanks for the concession!

If your beef is with the government, then vote them out, contribute to a PAC, start a PAC, or run for office yourself. If your beef is with Tesla, then explain why a business shouldn't take advantage of a law as written. AND note the following: • The law was changed and Tesla no longer...

As it does with almost everything from refrigerators to logging to baby pajamas to oil drilling rights to house paint, etc.

My first e-Bike experience was in Monterey, renting Rad Power bikes. Their instruction was to leave the shifter at "7" (it was a 7-speed), and then to change PAS levels or use the throttle if we needed. These are hub-motor bikes, so they don't care what gear you're in. That said, the paths and...

People who don't shift don't live in hilly or mountainous areas.

Plural?

Good to see he always wears black T-shirts.

Thanks. My first post in this thread was about using Clean Streak, but I didn't realize they made an attachment, which might make my original caveats about covering the area around the bike, etc. less important.

There are 16 sellers on Amazon for this. Don't know if any of them are cheaper to Australia.

Well, if 126 was the right length for a 44T chainring, then it might not be the right length for a 46T chainring. That said, if it shifts into the large cog without straining the derailleur, and the chain doesn't come back on itself when on the small cog, you're fine. Clearly, the derailleurs...

Did you measure for the chain length as recommended by SRAM? That is: 1) Lower air pressure in the rear shock until it's at the 30% sag mark. 2) Wrap the chain around the largest cog in the rear and the front chainring. 3) Pull both chain ends towards each other. You want to have an overlap of...
