I honestly thought I was the only one that did all those things. Thanks for sharing 🙏

Interesting question. I didn't specifically see anything but I suppose I just found city life fun but not very peaceful for one thing. I just enjoy the simplicity of living in this way, and giving the time to explore my passions. I'm sure my bike adventure and home schooling had a large influence.

@@TheOneGoodRoad home schooling stood out to me, thanks for your reply! You must have great parents.

If I remember correctly I think it came with both pre installed, if not both then definitely it came with the gear cable.

At the moment there is no feature for this.

Yeah I'm working on a bunch of videos at the moment for the channel but the solar bike project will be up soon! 😁

Surprisingly at noon it barely reaches the cells and if on the aero bars on the front, there is barely any chance of shading. At dawn and dusk the sun isn't really high enough yet anyways and the position changes a lot while riding on windy roads.

@@TheOneGoodRoad kwh per day generated approx?

Hard to say. I can say that the ST520 is excellent value for money, the brakes could be better but do the job for light trail riding. I would definitely change the stock tyres. I even installed an e-bike conversion kit on the ST520 I leave a link if you're interested. One thing to consider is that the ST520 has quite a heavy hard tail, it's strong but on the heavy side. I wouldn't choose a bike like this for steep climbs off road. Works well with an e-bike conversion kit for sure. 😉 ua-cam.com/video/glcvGL-FK6Y/v-deo.html

@@TheOneGoodRoad saw the conversation video, very interesting but for now, as long as I can climb and ride without one, I wanna stay like this :) Thanks for your reply

Yes I know that feeling, that's why my vintage bike is staying as a good old fashioned classic vintage bike 😉

@@TheOneGoodRoad :)

Huh interesting tips thanks 👍 and how did you change the amps on the display? Also what do you mean by torque arms?

@@TheOneGoodRoad if you press and hold the SET button on the display it will change to a settings screen where you can make basic adjustments. If you then while still on that page hold the SET button again and the minus button together another page presents it's self a "advanced settings". Used the SET button to scroll through the settings and the +/- buttons to make adjustments. I think the maximum amp output is the last option on the "advanced settings" You kit should have come with a little booklet explaining it . Torque arms ancker the spindle to the bike frame so that the wheel spins instead of the spindle. Those washers with shoulders are torque arms technically but as they don't fit completely flush so theres room for potential movement, which could over time cut into the softer aluminium. Iv put some aftermarket one on mine as a precaution.

@user-ux9ll3yk5y ah right. I'll have to take a look at that in the settings and where did you find your torque arms? My only concern is that a lot of them don't say if they're stainless steel. Maybe they are or maybe they aren't, we never know with AliExpress... 😆

@@TheOneGoodRoad I got mine off eBay but luckily a there's a company that make them specially for the Carrera vengeance.

We sure do! If you are in need of further guidance feel free to email me. 👍

@@TheOneGoodRoad Thanks so much! Where do I find that? Where are you based? I'm in Dreuilhe..

Sure thing! 👍 It's over on my about page section theonegoodroad(at) G-mail. I'm avoiding sharing the exact address to avoid bots. I'm based not far from Mas d'Azil and Carla Bayle.

Glad the video helped. I think I'd have to explain in a UA-cam short perhaps and I've already installed the PAS sensor and it's best I leave it in place. Perhaps I can explain via diagrams. I tried to explain in this video. The main thing is to take off the cranks and install the sensor on the drivetrain side on the ring. I warn you that you might need quite a bit of patience but it's definitely worth it and it's possible as I demonstrate in the video. 👌 Hopefully the e-bike industry will improve the compatibility of future sensors for road bikes.

I'm afraid via my research I haven't found this available yet in the UK or the United States. It's from a brand called EZA in France. It seems that this brand has bought a bunch of these charges in bulk and is setting them in France, mind you the price is quite high for what it is. In my experience with using this charger it does work so it would work for the car to an e-bike but it does charge the battery incredibly slowly? You need a 42 volts at 2 amps to charge a 36 volt battery more quickly. Also the charger does seem to get quite warm when charging, best charged in a cool location. I have been researching other methods to charge the ebike battery via solar so stay tuned for future videos. Also have a look at the brand OZO electric.

@@TheOneGoodRoad I was able to find a manufacturer in China who appears to be the source. They are sending me a single sample for 55$ including shipping.

The main thing with mixing up different brand panels together is finding panels which are really similar to each other. I highly recommend researching a few videos which explain the main things that you should be looking for. As an example, the voltage will drop down to the lowest panel voltage in the series (if I remember correctly). So if you have one panel that's 170 watts at 24 volts and another panel at 180 Watts 23 volts they should work quite well together but if you have another panel that's 120 watts 22 volts and 200 Watts 35 volts these two panels won't work efficiently together. Hope that's helpful, again definitely worth researching further.

Lol this was my beloved Fuji bike.

Just so you know I've found out that the battery is at 42v fully charged then later on it drops down to the 36v rating, I find the with 350w motor it is more than enough for the hilly terrain.

So I just received something in the mail that allows me to convert the 18-20v from the solar panel into 36-42v needed to charge the my ebike battery via a small MPPT charge controller. In theory this should work via my brief testing with it so far. Now it's time for a test ride!

I read your comment again I think I understand now that you are wondering if you can use MC4 connectors on a cable to a DC plug directly into your power station? Solar generators have mppt charge controllers inside of them already so yes you can do this.

​@@TheOneGoodRoadwait the eco worthy has a mpp inside already? So i can just use the "merger adapter" taking two mc4s and outputting it as dc?

Not exactly, no. But almost all Solar Generators or Portable Power stations can charge via power directly coming from the solar panels. Because they have built in MPPT charge controller inside of them.

@@TheOneGoodRoad just realize when you do that even if your converter was 100% efficient and its not you will lose a third or so of the wattage. So if your getting 90 watts x 3 270 watts total at 20 ish volts and you go to 36 your going to get 180 watts is perfect scenario cool panel direct sunlight . Honestly my math is not precise because 20 is not a third of 36 and you want to be higher than 36 to charge a 36 volt battery and there's no way to know the efficiency of what you have so honestly best case your solar set up would actually charge a 36 volt battery at a rate of around the 125 watt range. So assuming that e bike has the simplest gear hub type 250 watt motor you're looking at it taking twice as long to charge than ride. BUT If your bike has a multi mode controller and you put it in its lowest power and speed mode on level ground you maybe just might be able to run infinitely when the suns up.

Well if it breaks it is covered under warranty and it's a very big tough zipper, I do enjoy its convenience.

That one was a 54cm I believe but I prefer 52cm.

I just got back from a 4 day 75k hike and it does the job. One of the main features I like about the backpack is that there's a zip that allows you to get quickly into the entire bag and then it zips up the entire bag again. It's not the best backpack it's definitely a budget backpack in terms of comfort but it does a job for most people.

It was from an old trek city bike. Seems to be brandless 😉

It's true at the moment they are aimed at the premium market. I hope that could change, I'd like to see a competitor against quadlock to offer more reasonable prices for the rest of the mass market. 😉

I thought that might be the case! Thanks for testing!

Do you mean hydraulic? If so mechanical brakes can be just as good. 👍🏻

I'd say it's a tiny bit on the narrow side but close to normal

Ok thanks. Too bad.

If you have a car and your looking for an alternative mode of transport, it's definitely worth considering. If you want to carry a lot of weight on the bike but move around like your riding a carbon road bike, it's worth it. For people with injuries, disabilities or recovery from surgery it's a game changer. If you have solar panels, it's a no brainer to also have an e-bike! 😉 I still ride it as normal without assistance cause I love the sport of cyclin as well!

@@TheOneGoodRoad I ACCEPT THAT :)

When crossing Australia I took that much water, but I went across America in spring/summer which helped. Thanks for the tips 👍🏻

Well it depends on the tricycle does it have a rack?

You can but I wouldn't recommend it 😉

@@TheOneGoodRoad why? 😅 But i mean for road use

They are such skinny tires, that's why! 😉 I prefer 26-28mm or even 32mm but then you start getting slowed down by the thickness of the tyre.

Hello there. Honestly it's been quite some time since I've been working with route planning apps like this. I recommend these videos I made which might provide you with some useful information? - ua-cam.com/video/QMVGG09cOhw/v-deo.htmlsi=Fr7-MVXxFySUnsgF - ua-cam.com/video/nnl1WcVE8Aw/v-deo.htmlsi=KP8EFuCweFh3ZOxp Also checkout this website for combining GPX files. - gpx.studio If possible I recommend avoiding using MyMaps for the planning custom lines. I only use MyMaps as a free way to display my maps on my website and on any phone running Google Maps. Otherwise there are many other alternatives to MyMaps for the route planning part. That being said you can use MyMaps and it gets the job done.

​@TheOneGoodRoad Thanks for your response anyway. I found the origin of the problem, and it seemed to be the number of points. I started using some other websites to modify/cut/fusion my itineraries, and it now seems to be OK 👍!​@@TheOneGoodRoad

It's indicated on the tyres. Max pressure if your mostly going to ride on tarmac, way less pressure if your going off road for more grip.

@@TheOneGoodRoad ty.🙏
